![“I don’t know whose record [Romney] twisted the most, mine or his.” – Barack Obama](https://ezkool.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/obama-speaks0.jpg)
President Obama offered an earthy rural metaphor to blast Mitt Romney last night in Iowa, saying the Republican candidate offered voters “a cowpie of distortion” in a recent speech.
“I don’t know whose record he twisted the most,” Obama said. “Mine or his.”
Speaking to supporters at the state fairgrounds in Des Moines, Obama said that during Romney’s last visit to Iowa he exaggerated the administration’s spending and failed to give it credit for budget cuts.
The president also said Romney’s background as a millionaire private equity manager doesn’t prepare him for the presidency.
“The challenge we’ve faced for over a decade is that harder work hasn’t led to higher incomes,” Obama said. “Bigger profits haven’t led to better jobs. And you can’t solve that problem if you can’t even see that it’s a problem.”
