Mitt Romney: Lying to Victory

Daily Kos:

Romney lied:

  • When he claimed that “pre-existing conditions are covered under my plan.” They’re not.
  • When he said that President Obama had “cut Medicare by $716 billion to pay for Obamacare.” Obama didn’t.
  • When he denied proposing a $5 trillion tax cut. He did.
  • When he said President Obama had “added almost as much to the federal debt as all the prior presidents combined.” Not even close.
  • When he resurrected “death panels.” That was called “one of the biggest whoppers of the night.”
  • When he stated that half the green energy companies given stimulus funds had failed. Only if three out of nearly three dozen is half.

Stay tuned. These just scratch the surface.

Weapons Boom

Dave Pell:

The United States is by far the biggest exporter of weapons. And business has never been better. In 2011, the U.S. moved a cool $66 billion worth of weapons. That’s three times the amount the country sold the year before, and $62 billion more than the world’s second biggest arms exporter.

World Population Facts

With the same metropolitan density as NYC, the entire human population could live in the state of Texas.

What’s more?

If every single person alive right now on Earth stood shoulder-to-shoulder, you could fit everyone into the city of Los Angeles.
