ABC News Fact Check Hammers Obama’s Attack on Romney Tax Plan: “Mostly Fiction” – Video 10/4/12

So much for Barack Obama’s repeated claim during last night’s debate that Gov. Mitt Romney is proposing a $5 Trillion tax cut that he can’t pay for, which will balloon the deficit. ABC News’ Jonathan Karl fact-checked that assertion – and he says it is “mostly fiction.”

Mitt Romney has a devastating line he can use against Barack Obama if Obama pushes this again in the next debate. I noticed he did not use it last night, which is good, because he did not need it. In their next debate, if Obama starts claiming Mitt Romney is going to increase the deficit, Romney can simply look at Obama and say: “Mr. President, with all due respect, why would anyone take seriously anything you say about the deficit? You have more than doubled the yearly deficit, and added six trillion dollars to the nation’s debt in four years. It’s obvious, you don’t have the slightest clue as to how to deal with the deficit.”
