Mitt Romney has figured out a new way to lie. In an interview on Sunday with NBC, watched by millions of people - Romney said that there are a number of things he likes with Obamacare - including a guarantee that health insurers can't deny healthcare to people with pre-existing conditions - and reforms that allow children to stay on their parents' health plans until the age of 26. So the man who first created Obamneycare in Massachusetts, and then disavowed it when he ran for President, now supports it again. Or he did for a few hours, until his campaign told Buzz Feed that Romney actually opposes all provisions of Obamacare and instead believes that the corporate-run "free market" will find a way to cover those with pre-existing conditions. In other words, Romney wants to roll-back Obamacare. So the Romney Big Lie strategy works like this - go on Meet the Press, where a lot of moderate, undecided voters will be watching - and lie about your position on protecting people with pre-existing conditions. Try to assure the independents that you won't let health insurers act like death panels toward children with pre-existing conditions. And then, after the show is off the air - immediately backtrack - and issue a "correction" to your base, a group of right-wing crazies who are perfectly OK with letting health insurance companies discriminate against sick children again. I've said it before - I'll say it again - the only way Mitt Romney can win this election is by lying. And ...

The Good! *Entertainment Industry* While those in Washington continue to bicker over things like marriage equality and the role of the wealthy elite in America - it seems that the entertainment industry is ready to embrace what lawmakers in Washington won't. This year's Fall lineup of new TV shows includes the likes of NBC's The New Normal - which features a gay couple using a surrogate mother to have a baby. And - on ABC - there is 666 Park - a show about wealthy Apartment owners in Manhattan - and how they are taking overs the lives of - and in some cases stealing from - the middle class tenants in their building. The fact that these issues are now becoming mainstream topics of television shows says something about our culture. We have accepted them as the new norms - and so should those in Washington. The Bad! *Dick Cheney* In an interview last night with the conservative Daily Caller - Cheney accused President Obama of taking "sole credit" for the raid that killed Osama bin Laden last year. He also accused President Obama of failing to attend his daily intelligence briefings. and the Very Very Ugly! *Sheriff Larry Campbell* Campbell is the Sheriff of Leon County, Florida - and is currently up for re-election this year. He also has quite the temper and a streak of abusing his power - including getting in a bar fight and having the man he fought with arrested - and then proceeding to punch him in the face afterwards. But it doesn't stop there for Mr. Campbell. He ...

Megan Carpentier, Raw Story joins Thom Hartmann. Despite Republicans arguing that voter and election fraud are rampant across America - it seems like they are the only ones getting caught for it. One of those caught is in Florida - and there's been some interesting new developments in his case.

As a new op-ed published today in the New York Times uncovers, the Bush administration was repeatedly warned in the months leading up to the attack that terrorists were operating in America and determined to carry out an attack. We all know of the infamous memo Bush received titled, "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US" on August 6th - a month before 9/11. What we didn't know about was the slew of other memos that Bush received in the months before - that like the August 6th memo - went largely ignored. As journalist Kurt Eichenwald uncovered in that New York Times Op-Ed - as early as May of 2001, the CIA was warning Bush of a coming attack. On May 1st - the CIA warned the White House there was a terrorist group "presently in the United States."
