Speakeasy forum: Obama becomes emotional when addressing his team

Tears would be brought up as a sign of weakness.

I think you are mistaking the assaults that were brought upon Ann Romney and her illness and her horse therapy.....and the insults that were levied over her outfit once when the one Michelle Obama was wearing the same day was far more expensive than Ann's....and the insulting interview Mitt and Ann dealt with on The View compared to the deferential treatment BO and Michelle were given just a few days beforehand from the same View group. I also don't recall 'nasty assaults' being made against BO from the Romney team compared to the ones levied against Romney from BO's side (he was a tax cheat, he was a possible felon, he was a murderer, etc.)

As for the phony tears.......I recall many of you felt that Boehner was too emotional in his acceptance speech when he was made Leader of the House, but because it's now BO shedding a few over his win, it's 'genuine'. Gimme a break.

Was it more than he contributed to his own campaign? Get some facts before casting innuendos.

I didn't hear anything about his campaign running low on funds; did you?

And two days from now, you'll have forgotten you made it. How convenient a memory you must have Toni.

Substantiate the whole thing or stop posting lies.

You don't have to substantiate that funds left over are transferred to the RNC general fund. Thats Standard Practice in both Parties, merely substantiate all the allegations regarding Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama and that that is why she received the State post.

You don't think it odd that the campaign credit cards were cancelled before the people checked out of their hotels? Don't the volunteers have some expectation of having their accomodation paid and a return ticket?

And I've seen shots posted here at Michelle Obama, and the kids, as well as hearing/seeing them on TV usually when somebody is replaying an especially egregious FoxNoise segment, or something Rush Limbo says. But no, I'm not going to spend any time looking up SE references. I found them offensive once, twice would be too much.

Mind you, what you imply is that despite all the soft money and PAC money and Citizens (now there's a laugh) United money, the GOP is broke, and doesn't even have the courtesy to support its volunteers to get home. See that's what an upper class upbringing and education can teach. Gross ingratitude intolerable rudeness and a "Who gives a ****" attitude. They're all peons anyway, why bother with them. If anything could confirm the 1%-ness of the Romney campaign, and its total contempt for its staff and its voters this does.

I can only find one instance of that having happened on a cab ride and not all staffers like you suggest

Suggest?...Just think about what you're questioning.

Aides taking cabs home late that night got rude awakenings when they found the credit cards linked to the campaign no longer worked.

AideS?...THEY?.... awakeningS..... Sounds like more than ONE?

What do you think this ONE person did...that made them cancel ONE persons credit card?

Did Romney's Campaign only have ONE aide....Is that why they lost?
