BernieHund: The Political Watchdog

Just to show you how off base the Republican candidates Mitt Romney and John McCain are, they are now calling each other “liberal”.  Ah… excuse me! 

The Drudge Report:

Mitt Romney and John McCain accused each other Monday of being liberals, a charge tantamount to blasphemy in the caustic campaign for the Republican presidential nomination.

One day before the crucial Florida primary, Romney lambasted the Arizona senator for a host of “liberal answers” to the country’s problems. Among them: McCain’s legislation curbing money in politics, his more forgiving view of illegal immigrants and his backing of an energy bill that Romney said would raise consumer costs.

“And I just don’t think those liberal answers are what America is looking for, not for the Republican Party or for any party, for that matter,” Romney said in Fort Myers, Fla.

McCain accused Romney of “wholesale deception of voters” and of flip-flopping on the issues.

“On every one of the issues he has attacked us on, Mitt Romney was for it before he was against it,” McCain said.

He added, “The truth is, Mitt Romney was a liberal governor of Massachusetts who raised taxes, imposed with Ted Kennedy a big government mandate health care plan that is now a quarter of a billion dollars in the red, and managed his state’s economy incompetently, leaving Massachusetts with less job growth than 46 other states.”

Boys!  Boys!  Boys!  Either one of you would give liberalism a bad name.  Don’t go there.

Mitt wants to be CEO of the USA, and I suppose if you don’t measure up to Mitt’s standards he would find a way to pink slip you.  He has offered no plan for the poor, disabled or disadvantaged.  And, in the real world, we do exist.  Yep!  We didn’t all grow up with Ozzie and Harriet for parents, in a nice clean upper middle class white neighborhood.  In fact, many of us are still trying to claw our way out of the ghetto. 

John wants to fund and fight the war in Iraq forever… well, a hundred years would cover my forever.

Ah… well… Boys, the liberals want to redirect the money you are squandering in Iraq to do something for the folks at home, maybe pay for education and healthcare, help create opportunities for Americans, maybe fund the VA and get our homeless vets off the streets. 

Yes, sir!  I’m proud to be called a liberal.
