"The president's remarks are brought to you by the letter "O" and the number 16 trillion."

Obama needs a better joke writer and a better delivery.

Nlot even going to listen to the letter O's delivery.
Romney nailed it though, and both my wife and I loved it!

Namesake and great-grandson Al Smith IV wasn’t letting anyone else run away with the humor tonight.
In his opening remarks, in acknowledgement of the women in the room — and with an allusion to Romney’s remark in the last presidential debate this week — he said: “It’s good to see who’s getting out of those binders.”
Smith, noting that his great-grandfather was the first Catholic nominee for president, pointed out that Romney is the first Mormon candidate for president. He noted, too, that they both campaigned for governor — “as Democrats.”
Smith added that Romney gives 10 percent of his income to charity — “but the charity is the federal government.”
“Really governor,” Smith asked, “your father was from Mexico and you have five kids — are you sure you’re not Catholic?”
Smith dished it out for the president, too.
“We recognize that you have some challenges this year,” Smith told Obama.“It’s never good when your opponent has produced more sons than you have jobs.”"When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin
