And just speaking for myself of course, I don\u2019t agree with the President on anything. I wish everybody else would just stop being so deferential toward him, and stop showing so much undeserved respect for this community organizer from Chicago. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Before he became a U.S. Senator from Illinois in 2004 he was nothing more than a radical activist and community organizer from the south side of Chicago. And he is still nothing more than a two-bit street thug from Chicago where he learned his politic trade from a criminal named Bill Ayers, and then went to work for a criminal organization named Acorn, and later he cut shady real estate deals with another criminal named Tony Rezko. So what is all this \u201cMr. Presidenting\u201d about, and who is it designed to please? I can see it coming from Candy Crowley the moderator of the debate, but not from our Republican standard bearer!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">\u201cMr. President you have run over your allotted time\u201d.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">\u201cBut come on Candy I would like to say something\u201d. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">\u201cBut you have exceeded your time Mr. President\u201d. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">[But Candy I am the President]\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">[Of course you are Mr. President]\u00a0 &#8220;but Mr. President, Mr. President\u2026&#8221; \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Mr. President my a..! There were just way too many references to Barack Obama being the President. We already know he is the President. We don\u2019t need to be constantly reminded of it every five seconds. And there were just way too many times that he broke the rules of the debate, and he exceeded his allotted time to speak.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Why did Barack Obama think that he could just keep extending his time to talk way beyond the limits set by the Commission on Presidential Debates? Well probably for the very same reason that he thinks he can just keep circumventing the Congress or the Constitution any time that he wants! Everybody kept referring to him all night long as Mr. President, not President Obama, but Mr. President to try and de-personalize him, and make him appear to be above everyone else and\u00a0beyond criticism,\u00a0but instead he kept acting more like a little dictator who thinks that he is above the rules.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I wish Mitt Romney would stop saying that he agrees with the President. Why should we elect someone who agrees with the President? Why should we elect a Republican Barack Obama?\u00a0 We don\u2019t want to elect someone who agrees with this man! Rather Mitt Romney should accentuate his differences with Barack Obama, NOT tell us what they agree on! He should tell the American people that if he is elected he won\u2019t keep blaming the last guy in office for the next four years. He should point out the obvious inconsistency in Barack Obama\u2019s own statement that he accepts full\u00a0responsibility for\u00a0everything that\u00a0goes on during his administration,\u00a0while at the same time he keeps\u00a0blaming George Bush for just about everything that has gone wrong in the last four years.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Mitt Romney needs to do more than just show up for the debate and stand on his feet for fifteen rounds if he wants to win this fight. He needs to knock\u00a0his opponent out if he actually wants to win\u2026 because a tie is always rewarded to the incumbent whether he is the\u201cchamp\u201d or the\u00a0 current President. They\u00a0will not go to all the trouble to throw out the old and bring in the new unless\u00a0there is an obvious\u00a0preference\u00a0for the Republicans in this election. There is only one more debate and one more opportunity for Mitt Romney to knock his opponent out, and he better do it if he wants to win in November<\/span><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">. Why should America elect a Republican who agrees with Barack Obama? I don\u2019t want to hear anymore\u00a0about how\u00a0he agrees with Barack Obama! I want him to tell me why he doesn\u2019t agree with him! And he better start doing that fast if he wants to win on November 6th!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">\/second-Presidential-debate-above-the-rules.html<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Select Related Articles<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Barack-Obama-story-modern-American-fairy-tale.html\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Barack-Obama-story-modern-American-fairy-tale.html<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Mitt-Romney-Barack-Obama-blame-stops-here-America-wins.html\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Mitt-Romney-Barack-Obama-blame-stops-here-America-wins.html<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Mitt-Romney-Ron-Paul-campaign-for-liberty-contingency-plan.html\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Mitt-Romney-Ron-Paul-campaign-for-liberty-contingency-plan.html<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Mitt-Romney-going-with-the-wind-difference-without-distinction.html\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Mitt-Romney-going-with-the-wind-difference-without-distinction.html<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Barack-Obama-great-pretender-president.html\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Barack-Obama-great-pretender-president.html<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Barack-Obama-secret-service-HR-347-occupying-the-White-House.html\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Barack-Obama-secret-service-HR-347-occupying-the-White-House.html<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Barack-Obama-socialist-in-a-capitalist-country.html\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/Barack-Obama-socialist-in-a-capitalist-country.html<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/little-red-lying-hood-big-bad-wolf.html\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/little-red-lying-hood-big-bad-wolf.html<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-like\" data-href=\"https:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/blog\/2nd-presidential-debate-barack-obama-breaks-rules-set-by-commission-on-debates\/\" data-send=\"false\" data-layout=\"standard\" data-width=\"450\" show_faces=\"false\" data-action=\"like\" data-font=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<img width=\"125\" height=\"92\" src=\"https:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Romney-2nd-Presidential-Dabate.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail-excerpt\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><p>Why did Barack Obama think he could keep extending his time to talk beyond the limits set by the Commission on Presidential Debates?
