Fox Pretends Romney’s Jeeps-In-China ‘Lie Of The Year’ Was True

Fox Pretends Romney’s Jeeps-In-China ‘Lie Of The Year’ Was True
"By the way, there’s reason to suspect Fox knows this was a bunch of baloney. Despite banners saying “PANTS ON FIRE” and “WHOOPS” (about PolitiFact) during the segment, FoxNews.com casts doubt on that by making the title of its video of the segment a question: PolitiFact's 'Lie of the Year' actually true?
Fox News: The network where lying liars lie about true lies."

Mitt Romney '47 percent watch': 47!

Mitt Romney '47 percent watch': 47!
"So what drama is left? Well, if Obama surpasses 51 percent, he'll be just the fourth president in the last 100 years to do so twice, and the last since Ronald Reagan. That shouldn't be a problem given what's left to be counted."

Romney's 47 Percent Chickens Come Home to Roost

Romney's 47 Percent Chickens Come Home to Roost
"As the final 2012 vote tallies come in from all over the country, it's clear that Barack Obama didn't just squeak by, but will win by over three percentage points, leaving Mitt Romney with 47 percent of the popular vote."

Media Present GOP’s Romney-Like Proposal On Revenue Increases As ‘Big Concession’

Media Present GOP’s Romney-Like Proposal On Revenue Increases As ‘Big Concession’: Since voters rejected Mitt Romney’s $5 trillion tax plan and President Obama won re-election earlier this month, Republicans have expressed interest in raising revenue to avert the coming fiscal cliff. House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) and Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) immediately signaled that they are open to raising revenue and prominent Senators Lindsey Graham [...]/p

Abbreviated Pundit Roundup: Romney cements his legacy as poster boy for the spoiled and callous rich

Abbreviated Pundit Roundup: Romney cements his legacy as poster boy for the spoiled and callous rich
"Watching Mitt Romney struggle with keeping his spoiled, out-of-touch rich guy persona from rearing its perfectly-coiffed head during the campaign was like watching Romney's best Gollum impression. However, with the election over, Romney, as one pundit below notes, has decided to join the "sore losers club," and is removing all doubt about the sincerity of his everyman pitch along the way."

The Sore Losers Club Welcomes New Members Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan | Alternet
"Romney was roundly defeated last week, and the man who defeated him has now publicly saluted him  twice. This is the time for Romney to show grace, humility and maybe some humor too. Instead, he’s coming across like a sore loser, one who’d rather make excuses than give his opponent any real credit."

Republican Party is going to have to leave their proverbial bubble to remain viable

The Republican Party is going to have to leave their proverbial bubble to remain viable. Facts matter. Terrific breakdown of election night. The national results were predicted by fact-based models while the right wing media failed as usual.

PERRspectives: Please Proceed, Governor

PERRspectives: Please Proceed, Governor
"With his gracious concession speech Tuesday, Mitt Romneyended his decades-long quest for the presidency. But that moment of dignity and decency can't obscure a campaign in which Romney showed utter disrespect for the President, obvious contempt for the voters and a cynical disregard for the truth. Now that his quest has failed, he doesn't merely need to leave the national stage. Mitt Romney must take his brand of "post-truth" politics with him."

How Romney And Ryan Would Severely Impair Disaster Relief Efforts

How Romney And Ryan Would Severely Impair Disaster Relief Efforts: The federal government’s ability to respond to natural disasters, like Hurricane Sandy currently bearing down on the East Coast, would be significantly hindered under a Romney-Ryan administration. At least three times, Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan have publicly demanded that the federal government only disburse disaster relief funding if Congress agreed to offsetting budget cuts [...]/p
