Romney Press Releases Cites Tax Policy Center They Attacked As “Biased” And “Liberal”

In a press release today, the Romney campaign cites an article that ran in The Hill prominently citing the non-partisan think tank the Tax Policy Center to hit President Obama on how his policies have effected farmers. The Romney campaign, as recently as Sunday, was calling the Center “a liberal think tank” for saying Romney’s tax plan would increase have to increase taxes on lower and middle income people to pay for his plan. The Romney previously called the Center’s study “just another biased study from a former Obama staffer.” The Center also found that Romney’s plan would increase the deficit.

      It’s funny that CNN is not pushing the President about Benghasa or Fast and Fury or the fact he is easy on North Korea, Iran, and Russia who is getting stronger against us.

      You know, it’s great that you guys dig up this kind of stuff, and I know that Buzzfeed doesn’t conduct interviews with the candidates, but you know what pisses me off?  That no one calls out the guy on this shit?  No mainstream journalist has the stones to actually ask Romney point blank why he lies so much. Apparently, someone decided that such a thing was off-limits in the journalism handbook - which is absurd, if you think for five seconds about what the role of a journalist is supposed to be. Romney actually used to cite the same Tax Policy Center (which, btw, is run by a former staffer of the Bush administration - how’s that for liberal?) to support other arguments of his. That is, until they turned into dirty liberals for suggesting his math doesn’t add up. I’m not the biggest fan of Obama, and would actually consider voting for a Republican if REPUBLICANS HADN’T GONE BATSHIT CRAZY, and had not NOMINATED A SHAMELESS SERIAL LIAR as their candidate. Who knows, maybe next time.
