If you read this blog regularly, you already know about Romney and Ryan and their win in the Malarkey contest during the debates ending with a malarkey score 233% above the Obama-Biden Malarkey score. Source: Ranking Romney and Obama

However, the latest lie told in Ohio is HUGE. It seems that the GOP candidate for president is following the advice of Adolf Hitler’s minister of propaganda, Dr. Joseph Goebbels, also known as “The Poison Dwarf”, who said, “If you tell a lie BIG enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. …” Source: The Holocaust Research Project

There are several battleground states where Obama and Romney are so close in the polls that there is no way to predict a possible winner. Those states are: Colorado (9 Electoral Votes), Florida (29), Iowa (6), Michigan (16), Nevada (6), New Hampshire (4), North Carolina (15), Ohio (18), Pennsylvania (20), Virginia (13) and Wisconsin (10).

Together, those states add up to 146 Electoral Votes and Romney now has 191 and needs 79 more to win the election.

To tilt the vote in his favor, he has leaned heavily on telling BIG lies and repeating them to influence people to vote for him. His latest BIG lie is a claim that Chrysler will be moving Jeep production to China, and it will cost thousands of American jobs.

Not only has the Obama campaign been forced to respond in costly ads to counter this lie but the President of Chrysler had his public relations chief release a blistering reply calling Romney’s claims an “unnecessary fantasy.”

Fiat-Chrysler’s CEO Sergio Marchionne rebutted the claim as well, and wrote, “That (the) Jeep’s factory workforce in the United States had grown from 4,700 in 2008 to 9,300” and, “Jeep production will not be moved from the United States to China.”

But according to Justin Hyde at Motoramic, that has not stopped Romney’s campaign from repeating this BIG lie in Ohio in a last ditch attempt to influence voters.

I wonder how many BIG lies Romney and Ryan are spreading in the other battleground states.

I think trust must be earned through loyalty and honesty. If Romney is willing to practice Dr. Joseph Goebbels’ advice and spread this much malarkey to win the White House and become the next president of the United States, can anyone in America trust this man?
