Just when I think he can’t sink any lower, Mitt Romney goes and tells an even bigger whopper than the last huge lie about President Obama.
The Obama campaign filed suit in Ohio against a Republican scheme to eliminate early voting rights for every voter who isn’t in the military. The suit is designed to protect the rights of our military service members and restore the same right to every single voter in Ohio, as our laws and constitution demands.
Mitt Romney falsely claimed President Obama’s intent in this lawsuit was the exact opposite of the truth. I feel reasonably certain within 48 hours Fox will feature a parade of leading Republicans on their TV station who will repeat this brazen lie without challenge.
Which raises the question, if the national Republican party really believed their plan was so great for the country, why aren’t they giving us the details of their plan instead of inventing new ways to cheat their way to a win?
