Obama Chuckles At Romneys Claim Of Credit For Auto Rescue
President Obama laughed off Mitt Romneys suggestion that he deserves credit for Detroits recovery, suggesting his Republican rival was flip flopping.
I think this is one of his etch-a-sketch moments, Obama told ABC News. I dont think anybody takes that seriously. People remember his position, which was, lets let Detroit go bankrupt. Had we followed his advice at that time, Chrysler would have gone under and we would have lost a million jobs throughout the midwest.

...and I hope to see more laughter at the expense of Rmoney and the rest of the loonies on the far right during this campaign season. It's the best way to defuse their hateful blather, just laugh in their faces at their obvious stupidity.
