I was addressing something else: outside of the MSNBC incident, having nothing to do with it, Genuine Risk pointed out something else that has been noted this campaign by multiple observers: Romney has a known and observed problem with lying. He says things that are not just political, or exaggeration, or making one side look good. He lies about readily apparent facts. Deliberately, repeatedly.
BTW, "Obama's economy" has had 28 straight months of job growth, GDP growth, unemployment drop, Wall Street record gains. Yeah - Bush spent us from surplus into massive deficit.

It's impossible to have 28 straight months of "job growth" and have more people out of work! The unemployment figure, despite the cooking of the books, is WORSE, not better. All the parrotting of that line will not change that fact. There have been millions of jobs lost, NET.
It gets even worse when you calculate the number of people actually not working, as opposed to recently unemployed. When the person hits their 25th month without a job, they magically fall off the records and statistics.
It's not all Bush's fault. This guy added 5 trillion in new debt. That is more than all the previous presidents, (at least from Clinton back to Washington - not sure about George W.)
combined.
The lying is not going to get this guy a second term. He is the worst president we have ever had, including GW Bush, Carter, Nixon, Lyndon Johnson, and Herbert Hoover.
