"The Exorcist." The debate, President Obama and Romney...

I watched IMO, one of the most terrifying movies ever made. "The Exorcist." The quote below from the movie reminded me of someone...You be the judge.

Father Merrin from the movie the "The Exorcist"

"We may ask what is relevant but anything beyond that is dangerous. He is a liar. The demon is a liar. He will lie to confuse us. But he will also mix lies with the truth to attack us. The attack is psychological, Damien, and powerful. So don't listen to him. Remember that - do not listen. "

Perhaps Obama's advisers should have given him the same advice, or maybe the network could have had a little crawl on the bottom of the screen warning viewers.

People say Mitt "doesn't have a core", yes he does.. It's just rotten through and through. It's not the fact that he lies It's the ease in which he does it. We expect politicians to bend the truth and make stuff up, but not like Romney did during the debate.

Everyone knows he lied, yet the right-wing doesn't care as long as it gives him a "win." That says more about them , than it does about him. The lies were brazen and breathtaking. I would sit the election out if I knew Obama repeatedly lied during the debate. I can't and won't vote for someone that I cannot trust. I explained it to my daughter like this..

Mom I got an A on a test but I copied the paper of the kid sitting next to me. Right-wing parent: getting an A is all that matters.That's the message that the MSM and the right-wing is sending out.

politicians to lie except teabagger gops.. call me crazy!

The corporatemedia rewarded mitt romney with his Exocist behavior is right! I mentioned this after the debate.. that mitt turned his head around like the poor girl in The Exorcist when he switched positions.

It is up to the Social Media to let mitt and ryan know..their behavior is Not Acceptable.

He looked like a demon, icy and cruel with definite pleasure at the pain. Some Mormons I worked with had the attitude 'any means to an end', they were the ickiest people I have ever met.
