Reince Priebus
Priebus falsely claims that the economy is not improving despite 200,000 new jobs for the 3rd straight month
Today's jobs report is yet another reminder that far too many Americans are out of work, and the situation is clearly not improving.

Levin calls Occupy Protests members 'pieces of crap' and questions their contribution to society
Rather than going through the list of crimes that have been committed, the sex acts, the horrendous sanitary conditions and so forth, let me try it this way. Joe Biden likes to say that we all need to have skin in the game. Whats the skin in the game with these people? Let me put it like a normal human being would, not Joe Biden. What are these people contributing to society? Dont we have a right to ask? As a matter of fact, dont we have a right to demand? What are these pieces of crap contributing to society?

Bachmann claims that the recent earthquake and following hurricane are messages from God to politicians
I don't know how much God has to do to get the attention of the politicians. We've had an earthquake; we've had a hurricane. He said, 'Are you going to start listening to me here?' Listen to the American people because the American people are roaring right now. They know government is on a morbid obesity diet and we've got to rein in the spending.

From 1984 to 1999, Romney was CEO of a company called Bain Capital, a private equity investment firm. The firm's main focus is on selling various management and business model techniques to both failing and start-up companies in exchange for large sums of money. With Romney's recent campaign success, the news has spread about the 'questionable' ethics of Bain and its practices. Bain and Romney both have been called 'vulture capitalists', where many speculate that Bain's focus was not on fixing companies, making them bett...

The Scott Walker Administration has been criticized for alleged favoritism and cronyism. The girlfriend, Valerie Cass, of then State Senator Randy Hopper was hired for a short-term position at a salary higher than that of her predecessor. According to state records, she had never formally applied to the position, while multiple other qualified candidates with high-level recommendations were passed over for the job.

C Street has been the subject of controversy over its claimed tax status as a church, the ownership of the property and its connection to the Fellowship, and the reportedly subsidized benefits the facility provides to members of Congress. Until 2009, C-Street was exempt from real property taxes. When it was revealed that rooms were being rented out as residencies, the exemption was amended to 34% exempt. Soon it was revealed that the Fellowship had no control over C-Street. Mainstream Christian Pastors filed a petition to r...

In April of 2009, Rick Perry met in front of Tea Party members and brought up that Texas could secede from the union, if it ever wanted to. He said it probably will never come to that, but the way Washington keeps thumbing their nose at the American people, who knows what might happen.
