MORE SMACKDOWNS FOR MITTEN$

Remeber how Jared Diamond took Mitten$ to the woodshed because Mitten$ didn't understand Diamond's work? Well, that was just an appetizer.

-Ron Haskins, a former GOP welfare reform specialist, said the Mitten$ was absolutely wrong to claim that Pres. Obama is weakening welfare reform.

-Ezra Klein did a little digging into the latest economic agit-prop by Mitten$ and found that the sources for a new Mitten$ paper repudiated the paper's claims:
Each of these sections include supporting documents from independent economists. And so I contacted some of the named economists to ask what they thought of the Romney campaign’s interpretation of their research. In every case, they responded with a polite version of Marshall McLuhan’s famous riposte. The Romney campaign, they said, knows little of their work. Or of their policy proposals.
