The Debate Lasted 1 1/2 Hours, Liar Checking Is Going To Go On For Weeks

Last edited Thu Oct 4, 2012, 12:48 AM - Edit history (2)

Already CNN have been debunking Romney's blatant lies, and no doubt there are sites all over the net who are doing exactly that all over the net.

( On edit: Just saw this excellent post from devilgrrl which IMO deserves rec'ing to the top...

Debate fact check - Mitt Romney, nothing but lies: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10021464392 )

There is also no doubt that there will be multiple ads broadcast over and over proving how much Rmoney lied multiple times. Live. In front of America. And the whole world.

The debunking of Rmoney's lies will go viral - if it hasn't already - and will be what everyone will eventually remember, regardless of the current consensus of who "won" the debate.

Beyond winning on style, this will ultimate hurt Romney. All his lies will be exposed and discussed over and over. Mitt Romney cemented his position as the most untrustworthy candidate ever.

I also love the way devilgrrl put it in the conclusion to the OP I linked to on edit:

"On no! Obama didn't nail him.

He nailed himself."

...not sure how that happened or how I managed to miss it for so long (damned tiny Blackberry screen probably).

Anyhoo, it's reassurring to see that theory being vindicated by other OPs and articles. The way this is going, Rmoney's already looking like he totally screwed the pooch with his lies and that's what everyone will remember. The President was just there to allow the guffawing fool paint himself into a corner.
