The Smile Of Lies

Last week’s debate between President Barack Obama and the GOP challenger Mitt Romney resulted in a bounce in the polls for the Republican candidate. Across the board pundits and citizens agreed that the incumbent put on a lackluster performance. Obama looked tired and disinterested, as if some pressing affair of state required his attention and not the man seeking to take over the Oval Office.

Today’s confabulation of Gallup Polls revealed that Americans in the crucial swing states had responded to Romney’s strong showing, so that the gap between the two had narrowed to 3%.

I have been constantly predicting that the contest is a fait-accompli, but as HL Mencken famously said, “Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.”

He was able to get away with lies about the facts such as;

“I’ve been in business for 25 years. I have no idea what you’re talking about. Maybe I need to get a new accountant, but the idea you get a break for shipping jobs overseas, is simply not the case.”

That is not the case, but Romney defended himself from Obama’s rebuttal by saying that he wasn’t aware of those deductions, proving as Pascha Ray once said about GW Bush, “If you don’t know something, then it can’t be the truth.”

The light will dawn on dumb and dumber later than sooner in this election, because intelligence is a sign of weakness when confronted by the smiles of a liar.

Roofie a GOP voter on the election eve.

It’s your patriotic duty.
