Hour 1 Segment 1 Cenk hosting today. The AR State Rep that claimed slavery was a blessing in disguise for Black people clarified and couldn’t see any other way Black people would get to America. This guy, along with another Republican that felt the Bible condoned slavery, have been supported by the Koch Brothers. Video of Mitt Romney’s past strong belief in women’s right to choose. More recent footage of Romney going even harder in the direction of ending a woman’s right to choose. Video of Ann Romney saying that Obama is being a bad sport for calling Romney a liar for...lying. Cenk thinks that the way Ann, Mitt, and their son portray Obama as a petulant child isn’t a mistake. Romney’s spokesperson said that he is pro-life and will be a pro-life president. Video of Obama going after Romney’s back and forth on his abortion stance. Videos of Obama on Tom Joyner’s show, admitting that he was being too polite at the debate. At the end of the interview, Obama exuded more confidence, referring to an internet meme that has him saying, “Chill the Fuck Out, I Got This.” Segment 2 Rep Scott DesJarlais is extremely adamant in his pro-life stance. All of this changed when his mistress was pregnant and he aggressively forced her to have an abortion that he wouldn’t personally be present for. Fox News played an old tape of Obama’s outrage at the mishandling of Katrina in ‘07 right before the first debate to paint him as an Angry Black Man so that he would go easy on Romney and not live up to their accusations. Now that we’re one day away from the VP debate, Conservatives are trying to intimidate the moderator, Martha Raddatz by pointing out that Obama was at Raddatz’ wedding in 1991 because he went to law school with her groom. If Raddatz asks any tough questions of Ryan, they will claim that she’s biased in favor of Obama. Video of Paul Ryan’s radio interview claiming that the Dems will call them liars at the debate. This is the 2nd leg of their preemptive strike to make it easy on themselves. Fox News also ran with the preemptive liar strategy that Ryan proposed. Segment 3 Brian Kilmeade had a scientist on that takes on the Left wing’s political agenda w/science but couldn’t even convince him that global warming is a scam. Latest on the fallout from the Libyan Embassy attack. Reps Issa and Chaffetz are on the warpath to blame the Obama Admin as covering up the true motive of the attacks. Chaffetz won’t release any of his proof that it was coordinated. Videos of Chaffetz admitting to vote to cut millions of dollars from our embassy defense, but said we should’ve prioritized Libya anyway.
