Huffington Post: Jennifer Granholm: Romney Stuck 'A Knife In Our Back' With Auto Bailout Opposition

Posted: 26 Oct 2012 11:21 AM PDT

NEW YORK -- Former Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm upped the rhetorical ante against Republican Presidential nominee Mitt Romney in response to an economic speech he made in Iowa on Friday, claiming the former Massachusetts governor "decided that he would stick a knife in [Michigan's] back when we were on our knees" with his stance on the auto bailout in 2008.

In the Iowa speech, Romney promises to revive hiring. "Instead of more spending, more borrowing from China and higher taxes from Washington, we'll renew our faith in the power of free people pursuing their dreams," he said, according to prepared remarks.

But Granholm said during a conference call organized by the Center for American Progress Action Fund that she believes those promises -- and especially Romney's pledge to create 12 million new jobs in his first term -- ring hollow. Granholm, pointing to an issue brief released by the Center for American Progress Action Fund, argued that Romney's economic plan would actually destroy hundreds of thousands of jobs.

Huffington Post: Mitt Romney Hope And Change Message Co-Opts Obama, Central To Iowa Speech

Posted: 26 Oct 2012 11:22 AM PDT

AMES, Iowa -- If you listen closely, you can hear it: Mitt Romney is adopting the same "hope and change" message that President Barack Obama ran on four years ago.

Romney, the president's Republican challenger, isn't using the specific phrase. But his "closing argument" speech here Friday was a pitch asking America to make 2012 a change election. And Romney is casting himself as a messenger of clear-eyed optimism while arguing that the president is consumed with personal attacks and negativity.

Restoring the nation's fortunes, Romney's said in his speech here, "requires … change, change from the course of the last four years."

Huffington Post: Raw Brain Taste Test Finds Baby Calf Most Palatable (VIDEO)

Posted: 26 Oct 2012 11:27 AM PDT

BuzzFeed editor Gavon Laessig decided to taste a variety of raw brains. And thank goodness he did, because we're sure that you've also had the burning desire to know how various raw animal brains taste. You're in luck, dear reader!

Laessig found that the chicken just tasted like chicken fat (note: the chicken was half cooked since raw poultry can transmit salmonella) whereas the lamb and goat brains were considerably more gelatinous, with tastes that reminded him of sashimi. Pig tasted, well, pork-like (with a bonus choking hazard of a small part of the skull left in). The baby cow had the firm texture of raw tuna...and it was Laessig's favorite.

As this video was created by BuzzFeed, of course there are some animated GIFs that recount the experience as well. Bon appetit!
