The
Obama re-election campaign tactics are now approaching near-hysterical
levels with the unleashing of the White House's pawn Harry Reid accusing
Mitt Romney of not paying any taxes over the past ten years, claiming
some anonymous source as the author of that charge. He and the other
re-election mouthpieces claim that it is up to Romney to prove the
charges false in an obvious ploy to force him to release 10-plus years
of tax returns so their "truth squads" can rummage through to find any
nugget they can demagogue into portraying Romney as a out-of-touch rich
guy not paying his fair share.
This and many more attempted smears are on the horizon, as Barack Obama cannot win re-election without destroying his opponent, as he has done in virtually all his previous campaigns for public office. This is particularly true this year, as the facts underlying his stewardship of the economy are devastating.
It has been said, quite accurately, that the United States is going down the road taken by many European social democracies now facing imminent economic insolvency and societal upheaval. But America is further down that road than many realize.
