Kudos to Kevin Smith for his column “Romney Ads Are Troubling” (May 27) on Mitt Romney, the flip-flop king, and his constant changing of positions in reaction to the latest polls.
Good job!

Language arts teacher Lisa Elliott had her head shaved by hairstylist Nichole Jenkins during an after-school event at Crains Creek Middle School May 3. Elliott promised students she would shave her head if they helped her raise money to participate in the Disney Half Marathon, which raises funds for St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. Students and the school community held Elliott to her promise and helped her raise more than $4,000. Enlarge

Mr. Sellers, so let me get this straight. Obama now supports gay marriage which is a flip/flop so because he really believes in gay marriage, not to get the $15 million in funds from the celebrities. Guess Obama is also going to flip/flop on not cutting the deficit in HALF as he promised also.

Has anyone else seem Pres. Clinton's CNN interview: Pres.Clinton criticizes Obama's Bain attacksand then praises Romney's ‘sterling business career" adding; "There's no question that in terms of getting up and going to the office and, you know, basically performing the essential functions of the office, the man who has been governor and had a sterling business career crosses the qualification threshold."
Clinton then suggested it was dangerous for Democrats to go after Romney's record at Bain Capital—adding that in private equity, "like everything else you try, you don't always succeed" in saving companies or making them more productive.
Mr. Sellers Mr. Smith does as he always has, march lockstep to the liberal agenda like the blindly partisan ideologue he has always been. Something original once in a while would be nice, but that would require someone capable of free thought rather than constant offerings to the alter of progressive liberalism.

They should go after Mittens' record as governor, where he "led" Massachusetts to 47th place in the nation in job creation. The only good thing he did as governor, he can't run on, since it's the thing his supporters hate most.
Tell me again why you guys love Mitt so much?
AFCHIEF 11 months, 3 weeks ago
Reg, at least Romney has a background and record to be proud of. Obama, the druggie community organizer. No wonder he can't be a leader, half his brain was fried!
Reggie_Mantle 11 months, 3 weeks ago
Mittens? The spoiled rich kid and prep school bully has "a background and record to be proud of"? LOL. You've been washing those Cheetos down with some serious Kool-Aid, that's for sure.

Reg, at least Romney didn't push around and abuse women. Keep those oversized blinders on...

"at least Romney didn't push around and abuse women"
No, just guys who were smaller than him, had long hair and who he thought might be gay. But only when he had a gang of other entitled preppy punks to back him up and make him feel safe. Guess that's why he's your hero.

Reg, so by the sounds of it you like to smack around woman also.
DoctorFudd 11 months, 3 weeks ago
What I want to know is why no one is investigating Obama's white girlfriends.

Just your mom.

Romney bullied gays? Obama has white girlfriends? This is better than Mob wives! Also the bickering is amusing too. (not about hitting your Mom though, that's just mean).

Reg and af have just lost their credibility
buskwon 11 months, 3 weeks ago
Reg has lost his credibility? How can you lose something you never had?
Reggie_Mantle 11 months, 3 weeks ago
Greentara, AFpogue wants to talk smack, don't be surprised when people give it back to him. He brings it on himself with stuff like the post I was responding to.
Pogue, don't dish it out if you're going to be a candy-a** about taking it.
AFCHIEF 11 months, 3 weeks ago
AP, I lost credibilty because Reg Mantle said he smacked my mother.
REG MANTLE, I can dish it out and take, but when you attack someomes mother, that crossed the line

Reggie_Mantle 3 hours, 23 minutes ago They should go after Mittens' record as governor, where he "led" Massachusetts to 47th place in the nation in job creation. Kind of forgot to mention they were in 50th place when he was sworn in thats called moving in the right direction Mr. Rhoades. BTW refering to someone as a POGUE or a REMF as was the custom in my time was reserved for the use of front line troops, not traffic court lawyers so as we used to say it's time to pinch it off.

Bedpan, are you still on that obsession? "JD is Rhodes! ReggieMantle is Rhodes!" Who's next?
Bentpan 11 months, 3 weeks ago
The first time you misspelt your own name could be viewed as a mistake , now it's just obvious. What happened? The Pilot finally tire of one of their own behaving like an ...........well badly. Try to behave, while usually predictable, you can be interesting. But as usual you won't, you can't help behaving as if you were raised by trailer trash ( apologies to your parents, they must be so proud ).

More rude and less clever? Nah, that ain't our Dusty Rhoades.
Reggie_Mantle 11 months, 3 weeks ago
See, bedpan, here's the diff between me and the pogue: you talk smack about my late parents, I don't whine.
It's all fun and games and trash talk till the Chair Force tough guy get his widdle feelings hurt.
And BTW, Bedpan does Rhoades know about this crush you have on him? (thanks for pointing out my spelling error, it almost makes me wish I cared).

Obama's resume, which got him to where he is today is his skin color. He simply rolled up his sleeve and wala! Obama's record? An angry, bitter Black man who like most Black leaders, hates White people because he knows their history of achievment far surpasses that of the descendantss of the Sub-Sahara. He also knows that it was his White family that stuck by him while his drunk Kenyan father abandoned him and that makes him hate Whites even more.

Believe me, Reg, I'm perfectly aware of how obsessed the local wingnuts are with me. They see me behind every tree. At one point, one of them went down and pitched a fit at the Pilot offices because they though I was harleyman. (I'm not). It'd be flattering if it weren't so creepy.
And now, I'm off again before the editors decide to show how not-liberal they are and drop the hammer on me for doing what other people do. Beware...they only like nice, polite liberals who don't push back.
All that said...really, dude? "Yo' Mama?"

Has it ever occured to you that Obama is as white as he is black. Maybe even more so because he was raised by his white grandparents. It would have been strange is he did not have white girlfriends, that is who he was raised with.
