New Fox spin on Bain: Obama wages "battle over minutiae"

Obama wages "battle over minutiae"

Megyn Kelly today downplayed recent revelations about Mitt Romney's "retroactive retirement" by raising issues of unemployment, debt, 'wrong-track' polling. and June retail sales declines. She asked her guests, "Are we discussing the wrong thing?"

IMO this spin, no matter how often it is repeated, won't put the Bain controversy to rest. Only at least ten years of Mitt Romney's pre-2010 tax returns and his "retirement agreement" with Bain could put the matter to rest, unless Romney truly has something to hide.

WHAT'S YOUR OPINION?

2. They are so pathetic

I mean really. Rmoney says his business experience is his primary qualification to be president so when we ask for the truth about his business experience they claim it's the wrong thing to be discussing? They live in bizarro world.

3. Apparently Megyn doesn't see the apparent INSURANCE FRAUD aspect of Romney's dealings.

4. Agreed....it's an attempt to minimize this issue....

Hopefully, it doesn't work.

6. Yes--minimize Bain character issues, and return to Romney's

prior empty rhetoric on the economy.

5. Trying to disgust voters

It seems like this sort of tactic could be effective at increasing the dissatisfaction of many voters who feel that nothing relevant is being accomplished, or even discussed, by government. I would see it as trying to reduce voter turnout by reducing interest in the importance of this election and the issues involved. As far as that goes, I think it could work, at least with a certain sector of the population.

7. "battle over minutiae"

Three things come to mind:

1) I'm surprised Megyn could pronounce minutiae,

2) I'm surprised Megyn knows what it means, and

3) How does this compare to the battle over the minutiae of Obama's birth certificate?

How can anyone watch her? What a hateful, snide, bigoted person.

8. Fuck the Faux whores. Yeah, truth, honesty, integrity are definitely minutiae to them.
