As bad as this might sound, sometimes this type of stuff grabs my attention better than the hard hitting cold facts. The headline of this article was "Kids know the 'other guy' is a bullshitter Obama tells Rolling Stone."
The exact quote out of Obama's mouth was, "They look at the other guy and say, 'Well, that's a bullsh-ter, I can tell.'"
Romney and his advisers fired back, saying that it is sad that Obama has to take his comments so far on the defense now. They are stated as saying that the only thing Obama has left in this race is insults and rude comments. He has also, according to this article, coined a term called "Romnesia". He uses this term to address his opponents flippy flop on issues to appeal to voters.
Obama is making many little remarks like so, and I find it sad that he has to go to that level. I find it sad that at any point, any candidate has to get so testy. This literally is the version of adult political bullying. It is not a good role model aura to give off, from two people that are in the running to run our entire country.
In the first political debate, Romney was the same way. More on the defense, more insults and snappy comments fired. I know this is the way to win, put down your candidate, but I really wish that the childish behavior was left behind, so we could actually get a more mature race for our leader. Would you disagree or agree with the idea of the candidates getting a little childish at times?
