I can keep pointing out Obama's gaffes all day long. BTW, when Obama visited the queen he screwed up royally (pun intended). So let me say to you liberals who are thinking you are so clever pointing out Mitt's mistakes. With those kinds of smarts you'd have trouble escaping from a wet paper bag. Obama is the king of gaffes. Even with his beloved teleprompter he screws up.

The Col: .... Sending him to Alpha Proxima then would be a guaranteed win for the Republican party!!

WASHINGTON—According to a newly released USA Today/Gallup poll, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's favorability has surged to 64 percent since he left the country Wednesday for a three-nation overseas trip. "Once Gov. Romney was no longer within the borders of the United States and was instead many thousands of miles away from American voters, his popularity immediately spiked across almost all demographics," said political analyst Mark Halperin, noting that the electorate has been invigorated by Romney's complete absence from campaign events, rallies, and town hall meetings. "It seems that the farther away Romney travels, the more people like him. By the time his plane touches down in Israel, I wouldn't be surprised if his favorability rating isn't somewhere in the high 70s." Experts were quick to note the number remains well below Romney’s historical high of 89 percent, reached in February 2008 when the former Massachusetts governor announced his withdrawal from that year's presidential race

The Col: I see Carl Lewis has the view... "Every Olympics is ready, I don't care whatever he [Romney] said. I swear, sometimes I think some Americans shouldn't leave the country. Are you kidding me, stay home if you don't know what to say."

rod03801: The liberals can't comment on Obama's stellar record and accomplishments. He's empty in that department. So what better to do than point out Mitt's few errors while ignoring Obama's many. It's so transparent.

(V): In his interview with Brian Williams the other day , He apparently doesn't know any of his wife's trainers' names, isn't going to the Olympics, and DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHEN OR WHAT his OWN WIFE'S EVENTS ARE.

Mitt was talking about how he 'ran' an olympics has rubbed many the wrong way. Including the PM and Mayor of London...

As the Daily Mail reports..."The Republican's most damaging blunder came when he questioned whether his hosts would be able to make a success of the Games, saying: 'It's hard to know just how well it will turn out.'"

This remark later rebounded on him, when Prime Minister David Cameron said: 'We are holding an Olympic Games in one of the busiest, most active, bustling cities anywhere in the world. Of course it’s easier if you hold an Olympic games in the middle of nowhere.""

The Col: Lets just say... .... ... He's got great teeth.

Yep.

The conservative Telegraph said, in a commentary:

“Mitt Romney is perhaps the only politician who could start a trip that was supposed to be a charm offensive by being utterly devoid of charm and mildly offensive.”

The Col: Yeah but does he think we have 57 states in the US?

(V): I was shocked watching the report on all the errors he committed so far.The press is all over him.Mentioning his meeting with MI6 was considered a gaffe of epic proportions.Some say he has come across even more amateurish than Palin.Watching him gives the impression of a man not comfortable in his own skin.

Ol' Mitt is certainly winning friends over here.... NOT!!

Ife he's gonna be ol presiden'te he'd better learn to remember the names of those he's meeting. Being called "Mr Leader" doesn't exactly go down well.

MissDelish: Lightweight doesn't begin to describe me when it comes to drinking. Once I had medication for an injury and the dose was too high and I fell asleep at work. I woke up slurring my speech and they sent me to the ER. They had to cut the pill into 1/4's to get it small enough so it still killed the pain but didn't put me in a drunken stupor.

One thing for sure. When I go vote, I'm going to immediately find Obama's name on the ballot and make sure I know which hole to punch out.

Mexican regulators have imposed a fine of $27.5m (£17.7m) on banking giant HSBC for its failure to comply with money-laundering regulations.

The fine comes a week after HSBC's chief compliance officer resigned over allegations that the bank ignored warnings that Mexican drug money was being allowed to pass through the bank. The fine is the highest ever imposed by Mexican regulators.

It constitutes 51.5% of the 2011 annual profit of HSBC's Mexican subsidiary.
'Drug kingpins'

Mexico's National Banking and Securities Commission (CNBV) said it had imposed the fine against HSBC due to its "non-compliance with anti-money laundering systems and controls". HSBC Mexico issued a statement acknowledging that it failed to report 39 suspicious transactions and had been late in reporting 1,729 others.

"HSBC Mexico recognises it failed to strictly comply with banking regulations, and with the standards that regulators and clients expect of our institution," it said. Last week, a United States Senate committee found that HSBC had provided a conduit for "drug kingpins and rogue nations".

HSBC's head of compliance, David Bagley, resigned at the Senate committee hearing.

Americans favor Obama to defend against space aliens

AFP – Thu, Jun 28, 2012


Nearly two in three Americans think President Barack Obama is better suited than Republican rival Mitt Romney to deal with an alien invasion, according to a survey released Wednesday.

National Geographic Channel contacted 1,114 adults across the United States last month for its fanciful opinion poll ahead of its new cable television documentary series "Chasing UFOs."

Thirty-six percent of respondents said they were certain that unidentified flying objects exist. Eleven percent were confident they had spotted a UFO, and 20 percent said they knew someone who claimed to have seen one.

With Obama facing re-election in November, 65 percent said Obama would be more adept than Romney to respond to an alien invasion, with women and younger Americans more likely than men and over-65s to agree with that prospect.

National Geographic Channel said the results of the email and online "Aliens Among Us" survey dovetailed with the research underpinning "Chasing UFOs" which premieres Friday with Texas and Colorado residents describing their encounters with mysterious flying objects.

The poll had a margin of error of 2.9 percent.

rod03801: How?

"Yes, the more conservative our government, the better everyone's retirement can be in the long run. "

Not true. Over this side of the pond, pensions have been less secure.

""Mr Romney aims to boost his foreign policy credentials on the trip.

But as he arrived in London on Wednesday, his campaign found itself on the defensive after an unidentified Romney adviser was quoted by the Daily Telegraph newspaper as saying: "We are part of an Anglo-Saxon heritage, and he [Romney] feels that the special relationship is special.

"The White House didn't fully appreciate the shared history we have."

The Romney campaign has distanced itself from the comments, which the newspaper said might "prompt accusations of racial insensitivity".

Romney campaign spokeswoman Amanda Henneberg said: "It's not true. If anyone said that, they weren't reflecting the views of Governor Romney or anyone inside the campaign.""

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>How do we know that for true??

The "likes" link sucks, don't bother going there... don't touch that!

(V): The same way certain people on the dole have to bow down to the libs?

But you said something that makes sense this time, it seems. Yes, the more conservative our government, the better everyone's retirement can be in the long run.

Looking at Art's cartoons. The funny thing is that Romney is really, really better than Obama. Romney is really, really going to change Washington for the better. Romney really represents the working man and not some big corporate interests like other presidents have done since the end of WW I.
