    Did you know Obama has more in his pension plan than Romney?

    During the second Presidential debate Obama made a quip about Romney's pension plan is much bigger than his(Obama's) - this was another Obama jab at the "super rich" - fact checkers are now reporting that Obama is more super rich than Romney - check it out on cnbc.com

    I do not know this. I do not know how you would prove it and a pension plan is in the case of Mitt Romney is not his only financial asset. So,I really do not see the point. Money can be set up in trust funds, names of relatives, offshore accounts, etc. So I do not know how anyone would get an adequate picture. As far as government pensions, I would assume that the Pension for the President of the United States is greater than the pension for the former Governor of any individual state.

      Very true Larry, except maybe in California where they seem to really give the pensions away.

    Haha. No, I didn't hear that.
    Obama trying to play the poor guy now that he has spent so much time attacking Romney for his wealth. I distinctly remember democrats bragging about how rich Obama is when he was originally elected. They said McCain was a loser because he had no where near the money Obama has.

    Quit getting your "facts" from these news channel web sites. They are nothing but Super Pacs for their chosen candidate. Obama may have more that we know about, but we also know that Obama doesn't have near the overseas connections that Romney has. How would we possibly know what they actually have. Who cares. They are business men. They are both millionaires.Once they are collecting their pensions, who cares. They will be retired.
         Fact checkers, pollsters, news people and web sites are all skewed. Numbers, facts, and records don't lie, but spinning the heck out of them to point a certain direction has become an art. Don't be sucked in. Form your own opinions about these men and be proud of them. Don't let the news channels make you believe that you need them in order to be intelligent. You don't. They need you.
