I couldn't stand that smirk on Romney's face throughout the entire debate. He looked like he had constipation. Obama did call him on the BS he was saying, but he wasn't given credit for it. The Deam Scream also ticked me off. What's wrong with people? Why do they let complete strangers think for them? It's downright scary.
