Hour 1 Segment 1 Cenk hosting today. Results from the Presidential debate last night have Obama winning. Even after presenting Obama as the winner according to their own CNN poll, Blitzer and Anderson Cooper try to call it a draw. Video of Obama going after Romney’s “1 point-plan.” Video of Romney bungling the question about how he’s different than President Bush. Cenk thinks Romney’s best moment was his answer on what the next 4 years would be like if Obama gets reelected. Video of Obama talking about the promises he’s kept over the past 4 years. Obama wrapped up by hitting Romney on his 47% remarks. Segment 2 Video of Romney’s “binders full of women” comment when talking about staffing his cabinet with women. The candidates’ discussion over the embassy attack in Libya. Romney and Obama clashed over whether or not “an act of terror” was mentioned by Obama. Video of Romney claiming that he’ll have the top 5% pay 60% of the taxes. Even Charles Krauthammer had to admit that Obama won. Conservative bloggers also pointed out that Michelle Obama once clapped during the debate, breaking the rules. All of this misdirection shows they didn't want to deal with the fact that Romney got beaten. Segment 3 Dinesh D’Souza’s propaganda movie against Obama. He brought a woman to an event at his university he founded to promote Christian values, but the woman wasn’t his wife. When this was brought to the light, he then filed for divorce. The hypocrisy is the annoying part. Videos of Paul Ryan’s fake photo op at a soup kitchen in Ohio where he and his kids cleaned dishes that were already clean. The man that runs the soup kitchen was annoyed that Paul came in and used his nonpartisan establishment for political purposes.
