Is it just me or is the rhetoric of the current President of the US becoming more and more ugly and unpresidential? And why is the congress being used by democrats to campaign against Mr Romney? We hope that our politicians will be capable and smart in their politics, but does that include being good at attacking under the belt and spreading clearly wrong and bad propaganda about rival candidates?
