MSNBC!!?? This has to be faked.

Maybe not.

Will Fox reciprocate?

Has anyone in the Romney campaign implied that Obama killed someone because, say, Tony Rezko didn't maintain an Chicago apartment complex in decent shape? That would be the only "reciprocation" Fox could do. The worst the Romney campaign's done in that line is to exaggerate the impact of waivers from the work requirement for welfare granted by the Obama administration - and to say that the two campaign ads are equally bad would be a lie in and of itself.

Actually, Morning Joe is the only show that resembles sanity on MSNBC

The guy said he doesn't know of any media outlet that is running the ad. Maybe there aren't any outlets being paid to run the ad, but all of the news programs are running it. But I have only found a couple that have done their homework well enough to find that the "facts" noted in the ad are ridiculous. Anything to help their guy win.

When Mark Halperin calls a pro-Obama ad nasty and despicable, you know it's way over the line. This ad goes much farther over the line than Romney's worst effort, the "Obama's taking the work requirement out of welfare" ad, but the left says that exaggerating the impact of rule waivers in welfare is just as bad as saying Mitt Romney killed a cancer patient (whose husband lost his job at a Bain Capital-owned company six years before she dies, during which time she had full insurance coverage until she died.

NB to the Romney campaign: You can't out-fart a skunk. Only a fool tries.

If, up to this point, the Romney campaign had left the lying to the experts at the Obama team and stuck to clear facts, they'd be better off today.

The Obama campaign would be alone in the liar's corner explaining exactly HOW two of the most powerful men in the world wound up relying on "confidential sources" to back up the utter lie that Mitt Romney paid no taxes on his income at some point in the last ten years. They'd be exposed as cynical liars with no fig leaf of "moral equivalence."

Is this what Nixon called a limited, modified, hangout? Or was it just used by punk media to fill air, with noxious fumes of kulturesmog?
