More details released for Obama’s Green Bay visit
GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — President Barack Obama’s campaign has released more information about his visit to Green Bay next week.
The president will be at the Brown County Veterans Memorial Arena on Tuesday afternoon. Doors open at 4:30 p.m., and Obama is expected to appear about two hours later.
Obama’s visit will be sandwiched between campaign stops by his Republican opponents. Mitt Romney will be in Wisconsin one day earlier, and vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan is returning to his home state the day afterward.
All that attention on Wisconsin underscores how urgently both campaigns need the state’s 10 electoral votes. The presidential race is a virtual dead heat in Wisconsin.
Obama’s appearance will be exactly one week before the Nov. 6 election.
Vice President Joe Biden visited Oshkosh and Wausau on Friday.

Neither Obama or Romney are great choices.
But, for me, Obama has much more credibility than Romney
Politifact found that Romney LIES MUCH MORE than Obama
42 percent of Romney’s comments were lies.
28 percent of Obama’s comments were lies
(Total of all Mostly False, False and Pants on Fire rulings)
Romney appears to say whatever he thinks best suits his audience.

And, Obama has experience that Romney doesn’t even come close to.

Obama's putting politics above truth and honor (from the Operation Fast and Furious cover-up to the lying and stonewalling about assassination of our Ambassador in Libya and 3 other American citizens at our embassy there) should be offensive to every American.
Obama's "thought the microphone was off" sell-out promise to Russian President (and Vladimir Putin tool) Dmitry Medvedev should worry every citizen of the biggest target nation in the world.
Obama's veto of the Keystone Pipeline project (blocking new jobs AND a competitive alternative to OPEC crude oil for American refineries) should be a red flag to people seeking a better living.
And if nothing else discourages Americans from voting for a second term of Barack Hussein Obama, the thought of "Malarkey the Clown" Biden being just one heartbeat away from the Oval Office should be enough additional persuasion.

Is obama phones the only debate some of you can come up with? Grow up. This is way beyond phones. Anyone can come up with small things to outdo the other party. Both parties have their faults and good points. Start thinking beyond small issues and think about the bigger picture here or we will never get out of the mess we are in.

carlit....settle down! You get so irate! Every communications company in this country must pay a fee to the Universal Service Company and if you think that doesn't get added on to our telecommunications bills that you and I pay you are really missing it. That is where the money to run the Obamaphone program comes from. I did not dispute that the program was started under Reagan but the program has morphed. My point was the Obama administration is trying to court the entitlement vote by calling them Obamaphones (see their website I referred to earlier) did Reagan call them "Reaganphones" or Bush call them "Bushphones"? So take your pants on fire rant and put it you know where! Talk about being on fire you should really take your hyperbole down a level. You would have much more credibility.

Press-Gazette endorsement: We recommend Romney for president
"For that reason, the Green Bay Press-Gazette is endorsing Republican candidate Mitt Romney, who we believe is the best choice to turn around the U.S. economy. We believe the Republican candidate’s experience as CEO of Bain Capital, governor of Massachusetts and work with the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City will be assets to turning around the economy."

Allin and the rest of you promoting lie after lie will you ever get the truth right http://abcnews.go.com/ABC_Univision/Poli... And fact they are at no cost to any tax payer. Donnaw the cost of the free phone program YOU ARE A DOWN RIGHT PANTS ON FIRE LIAR, can you read the link above? I have added the paragraph that proves you LIED... FACT FACT FACT! the idea for subsidized phone service, notes liberal blog Think Progress, originated under the Ronald Reagan administration after the breakup of AT&T. The program is paid for by telecommunications companies through the nonprofit Universal Service Administrative Company, not through taxpayer revenue. BTW the ad with the woman saying Obama gave her a phone LIE and was by your LYING Republicans and the real people KNOW HOW MUCH THEY LIE... I wonder how much they paid her to do this. Now go complain to staff and try and get this post deleted as NON OF YOU republican backers CAN HANDLE TRUTH OR FACT!!!! as it is not a value nor is it campaigned on by what and who you support!!

The cost of the program has gone from $772 million in 2008 to $1.6 billion in 2011. And we all know where the costs will continue to go. The Obama administration promotes this program by advertising the website "Obamaphone.net." This is how it has become called the Obamaphone. Anyone in congress suggesting the program be monitored for fraud? Probably not. We have created an entitlement society.

ALLin- This is the 3rd or 4th time I've posted this for you. You are almost like a robo call (or maybe you are)about the " bama" phone. Enough already- no one believes this piece of right wing garbage. Read on:
Allin- I assume that you've researched the information on the " bama" phone and that you know that the cell phone program for the poor ( Lifeline Program) started in 1984 under Ronald Reagan and was expanded under Clinton in 1996. It is not exactly a "Bama" phone- but feel free to continue the lie if you must. Most people already know this.
