Obama's presidency has been a litany of broken promises, the Pulitzer Prize winning 'PoliticalFact' published by the Tampa Bay Times features 'The Obameter' which lists and describes Obama's broken promises one by one, it runs 5 pages long. That Romney can continue to flip-flop from position to position, to lie about whatever he finds convenient, simply shows he's been paying attention to what got the present 'liar and theif' elected.
Yesterday's editorial in the N.Y. Times 'Buying the Vote on G.M.O.’s' about the financial backers of the 'No' campaign in Calif. was excellent and offered some hope that by exposing the propaganda filled ads of the self-interested financiers behind the campaign their lies can be exposed [hope springs eternal eh]. On the other hand the 'Yes' side has held it's fire until now, does have a war chest of $4-5million and has bought many TV ads to counter the opposition's dis-information that will run in Calif. during the next 13 days.
The most recent pre-vote polls are showing that the gap, once 2-1, is narrowing in California. That these tactics are working surprises no one, and is further argument against Citizens United and super PACs, and for big time campaign finance reform. Big money has defeated democracy in the US by and large, this Prop. 37 'Right to Know' what's in your food campaign in California could be the last test of whether democracy still exists there or if it's now totally run by liars and thieves.
