'Buyers Remorse' Leaves Obama Campaign Struggling for Campaign Funds
Wednesday, July 18, 2012 07:02 AM

Barack Obama was the first presidential candidate to raise more than $100 million in a month and in 2008 was the first to forgo public money for his campaign. Now, he faces the very real threat of being the first president to be outspent by a challenger.

Chicago gotta be in panic mode now! Romney is ahead and raising DOUBLE the money Obama is! Wall street and other rich sources for Obama in 2008 are donating to Romney now! Apparently they have heard all that wealth creation bashing...

Gonna be fun to watch. I hope he loses 48 states

And if it were the Democratic nominee who'd only released two years of

Hahaha, academic records anyone? How many job applicants are hired who
refuse to release their academic transcripts? How many employers ask for

OK, let's see Barry Soetoro's tax records. Don't bother to explain why the
President needs an alias, just release the records.

Yep, and why on Earth was he hired? Because he was Black, our collective guilt complex over slavery prompted liberals and academics to simply skip the normal vetting process that ensures that a candidate is qualified. They didn't CARE! And despite continuous warnings from millions like me, they elected someone on "hope," even though they absolutely knew he couldn't do the job. The same people who would have screamed if their university had promoted someone to President who had not proven his ability elsewhere, urged us to elect Obama, a person who was not qualified to be the 4th level below a president, not even Attorney General or one of his assistants.

And America has paid an immense price. I could list some of it, including the loss of half the equity in our homes and 20+ million jobs.

Lets fix it.

Actually that request of Romney is just a political hit. He did release 20 years of tax records when he ran for Senate several years ago. They know there is nothing there.

Actually, the question is whether Romney is a law breaker. If he is not
releasing these tax returns (and note, he has not released a full
return, even for 2010, since the return on his UBS Swiss bank account,
while it has to be filed with the IRS, has not been released to the
public), then it may well be because he benefitted from an IRS Tax
Amnesty program that allowed citizens to own up to and pay owed taxes
and penalties on such accounts anonymously. Someone who has been the
recipient of such an amnesty for a serious crime would be disqualified
from running for POTUS.

He had better pick his running mate very carefully indeed.

I suspect he didn't break the law - he can afford top tax lawyers and
has been in politics for long enough to not want to take that risk. I
suspect though that he doesn't want the public to know on how he used
the law to avoid paying taxes, which companies were paying him money,
and where his money was invested.

He doesn't have an alias. Pretending he does just makes you look like a fanatic.

He has released his tax returns; going back to 2000. Pretending he hasn't just makes you look like a fanatic.

He doesn't have to release his transcripts. He graduated magna cum laude from your country's most prestigious law school. Pretending you don't understand the significance of that just makes you look like a fanatic.

Face it: if the shoe were on the other foot--if a Democratic candidate was the one who only release two years of tax returns, you'd be all over it.

My theory is that his alias is a birther fantasy, he has released tax
records (but he didn't run on his business record), and even if he ran
based upon his academic credentials, these belong to his colleges.

Romney ran on his business record. Obama is campaigning against
Romney's business record. Both candidates agree that Romney's
business record is an important issue.

Romney doesn't care about Obama's academic record, and only has to
point out that Obama doesn't have a business history. Those aren't
issues for this election.

It seems you're unaware that Harvard University refers to Obama as a
Magna Cum Laude graduate of Harvard Law. You can learn that generally
means graduating in the top 10% or so here: http://goo.gl/VasBM

Wasn't that easy? Now you're slightly less ignorant than you were before.

Agree. There is effectively a different set of (legal) tax laws for the
very wealthy. Romney is a smart guy so he took advantage of every
possible loophole. He is right to be scared. All the (legal) crap he
pulled will be very damaging once it is disclosed and will feed into
Obama's policy of restoring higher rates of taxation for the rich.

Really? So you can point to a reference that confirms that?

Because I'm wonder why, if that is the case, why Romney's campaign
hasn't simply mentioned that.

Yes, you have a duty to pay taxes. No you have no requirement to show
them to anyone other than the IRS or a court.

He didn't run on his business record because he has no business record.

Obama's transcripts are a part of his life and are fair game. The
university may be the custodian of the records but it does not mean they
belong to the university.

Why isn't Obama running on his 3.5 year economic/business record? I'll

comes to his economic/business record.

He was magna cum laude from Harvard Law. Confirmed. That means top 10%
of his class - if you question that, then go ask Lawrence Tribe again.

Well, I don't think we are losing the 700,000 jobs a month that his
predecessor presided over. Turning that fiasco around, especially in the
context of a glboal recession, takes more than 3 years.

Of course he didn't run on his business record. He has none. Obama seems to
be running against a business record of Romney's that didn't exist. He has
intentionally lied about his employment history at Bain and got caught.

At any rate, neither side is running on academic records. Neither
side thinks their academic records matter to this election. Would
you change your vote upon finding some grade you didn't expect?

I didn't think so.

As you said above, he doesn't *have* a business record.

Now, they are running on the country's economic record - which happens
to be something that Congress can influence, but is not part of what
the president does. But they are both running on it anyway.

Not only lied, but conveniently ignored his connections to bain. Like
the over $50K in donations he got from Bain in 2008. Or the over $34K he
as got from Bain in this cycle. Or that one of Obama's largest bundlers
is currently running Bain and was in change of Bain when GST steel went

BULL! Obama has been a dismal failure because he has been unable to do the job of POTUS-- and seems not to have the character and integrity needed for a president of ALL the people. His resume accurately predicted his ability. But the public ignored his resume in 2008. Now Obama cries in public about the job situation, but it was revealed yesterday that he has not convened his "Jobs Counsel" consisting of industry experts, this YEAR! Not once! Instead he has been golfing and bouncing from fund raiser to fund raiser. That is integrity. That is simply a strong indicator that this guy doesn't have a work ethic.

His Resume listed NOT ONE instance of a strong work history. He basically never had a job and doesn't know how to grind as necessary, the stuff that turned the hair white of every past president.

Romney would sit there and grind-- like all CEOs do. He would use his vast experience and knowledge to turn this country around and restore America's trust and integrity around the world.

Vote for your future and that of your kids and grandkids. 4 more years of an incompetent as POTUS may destroy this country.

It may turn out that that provision is a late revision... by guess who! Hawaii is a giant reservation of government dependent liberals. They would vote for a child molester in jail-- if he promised more welfare.

BS. Magna cum laude, for the hard of thinking, means TOP 10%. It is not,
therefore, adjustable by any kind of "grade inflation", since it is a
relative measure of all those in the class.

If Harvard's grades are so easy, how come you never made it through
there - or anywhere?

There is nothing wrong with having accounts around the world if they are legal and taxes paid. Romney does that. His money is in a blind trust. If the trustee place his money there, that is their business.

Read the papers. MOST of the White House staff has big investments around the world, including Swiss and Cayman Island accounts. Not smart for those in glass houses to throw stones.

As I've come to realize, Larry, it's not that you're lying. You're just
ignorant; willfully ignorant, perhaps, but just ignorant.

He may not have personally met with them, but the council has indeed met.

<http://www.jobs-council.com/events/>

Oh, and you're also wrong on the basic fact you presented. The council
met at the White House on January 17, 2012.

<http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2012/01/17/president-obama-me

Now I know you're willing to be ignorant of those facts that don't fit
your fanatical fantasies, but surely you're aware that January 2012 is
in "this YEAR", right?

No. And Ronald Reagan was an actor with essentially no education who
never worked other than acting, and you LOVE him. But what Reagan did do
was draw in people with appropriate experience to advise him.

Just like Obama has with the jobs council:

"The President and Mr. Volcker announced the board's membership on
February 6, 2009.[13] Members include:

Jeffrey Immelt, General Electric chief executive

James W. Owens, head of Caterpillar

Robert Wolf, chairman and CEO of UBS Group Americas

Mark Gallogly,[14][15] founder and managing partner at Centerbridge
Partners L.P.[16][17]

Penny Pritzker, chair and founder of Pritzker Realty Group and Classic
Residence by Hyatt

John Doerr, partner at Kleiner, Perkins, Caufield & Byers

Monica C. Lozano,[18][19] Director of Bank of America

Charles E. Phillips, Jr., president of Infor.

Richard L. Trumka, president of the AFL-CIO

Austan Goolsbee, chairman of Council of Economic Advisers

Christina Romer, former chairperson of Council of Economic Advisers

William H. Donaldson, former Securities and Exchange Commission chairman

Laura D'Andrea Tyson, former Chair of the Council of Economic Advisers
during the Clinton Administration

Martin Feldstein, former chief economic advisor to President Ronald
Reagan,

Roger W. Ferguson, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of the
Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association - College Retirement Equities
Fund (TIAA-CREF)

David F. Swensen, CIO at Yale University[20]"

Ironic, then, that you don't acknowledge this... ...especially in light
of the fact that one of Reagan's former advisors is on it.

You wouldn't be saying that if it were a Democrat who'd only released
two years of returns.

Almost certainly a primary reason Obama will not release his transcripts at ANY school is that he was passed through "affirmative action." We have seen dozens of clues indicating that Obama is not smart, not even very bright. Else he would not continuously screw up when not reading the teleprompter. One day during the 2008 campaign, he said "we've been to 57 states now" THREE times! They asked him again and the moron repeated it! Just a few days ago he extemporaneously said, "if you have a successful business, you didn't earn that!" I am sure his campaign would have cut the power to his microphone if they could, before he uttered another really really stupid statement.

I would bet my house that his IQ is only average if that high. Obama has been given everything all his life, smoked dope for years, did Cocaine, both of which are felonies, and stupidly wrote it in his book!

Romney is going to beat him in every state.

I hate to break it to you, Larry, but the inability to speak well from a
teleprompter says nothing about intelligence.

I don't know, Larry, but surely you're not implying that Obama was

BTW, how did that challenge by the Arizona Secretary of State work out?
You remember: the one that was going to bring down the whole house of
cards?

Or what about the later one in Florida (IIRC)? How's that going?

Right. And yet Reagan had no business experience and no education to
speak of.

Obama has brought a pantheon of american business to bear and you won't

Yeah. Hawaii is protecting Obama because it want to be in the We
Produced a President Club.

Occidental and Columbia want to be in the Produced a President Club too.

Harvard wants to put another notch it its Produced a President Club
belt.

Tribe would be castigated by the left if he said anything other than he
thinks Obama is smart.
