“You know, in the past, when people pointed out that something was inaccurate, why, campaigns pulled the ad. They were embarrassed. Today, they just blast ahead. You know, the various fact checkers look at some of these charges in the Obama ads and they say that they’re wrong, and inaccurate, and yet he just keeps on running them.” ~Mitt Romney
Wow. That’s an amazing statement to come from Mitt Romney. Like … WOW. You can find him saying that HERE. Of course – he is upset about this ad HERE from Priorities USA – a 3rd party Pro-Obama SuperPAC. I personally believe that due to the nature of the closeness of the campaigns to their SuperPACs … candidates should be held accountable for any commercials on their behalf that are dishonest even if the campaign themselves do not officially pay for them. I feel that way because even though campaigns are not officially allowed to coordinate with 3rd party groups since that would be illegal … the reality is – they are often staffed with former campaign staffers who have close relationships and they’re able to “wink and nod” just fine to be an extension of the campaign.
So – Mitt has taken the stance that Obama is responsible for false ads by 3rd party groups and that any false ads should be taken down.
So what about his ads, like this one, rated "Pants on Fire"?
And then there is this ad that the Washington Post fact checker gave 4 Pinocchios – its worst rating...

There are lies from Super PACs every political season. You act like it's never happened before, which is disingenuous. You just didn't care if the lies were against opponents. If this were a lie about Romney, you wouldn't give a rat's ass. Now, there's one against Obama and you're all up in arms. Crocodile tears.

This from you is just too funny....all the posts from conservatives here condemning Obama for "lies" in Democratic super PAC ads and not a peep from you about them not complaining about lies from their own side. Disingenuous? Why yes you are.

Hey stupid. Those words are actually Raees words, clipped and pasted from another thread... I made two simple word changes. Raees posted that in the "Romney killed the cancer woman" video thread. Who's laughing now?

In the meantime, you just ignore all of the Romney Super Pac lies.

They are not raees' own words if you change them......duh? Raees was absolutely dead on in her assessment....and your post is example #1 of how right she was. You won't say a word against Romney's super PACs.......no conservative here has, but the "you did it too" defense is kinda fun to watch, that's the only excuse the conservatives ever have for their own actions. start thinking for yourself twinsy, you might be surprised how different the world looks.

"her assessment"? Ya, probably too many years as a Democrat caused that
