Controversial private fund-raiser video shows candid Romney

[noonwitch]

Given that Thurston Howell III was married for years to the only woman he ever loved and deep down underneath his capitalist pigdog exterior had a heart of gold that truly cared for people, they might want to rethink that comparison if their goal is to smear Romney.

I always thought there was something going on between Mr. Howell and Ginger.

I know its all about "winning" and kissing the ass of the sheeple, but I am glad there is a candidate that stood up to most moochers and said, "I don't need you". Its quite refreshing.

I just keep shaking my head at Romney...







Can he figure out another way to stick his foot in his mouth???

What did he say that was wrong? He's 100% spot on that the 47% who pay no taxes see themselves as victims of the upper class and cling to zero because he will "spread the wealth". Say what you want but Mitt is 100% right on this. Also, last night in a presser he said that even though he could have framed it better, he would like the person who posted the video to have the guts to post the whole thing including the question because only seeing how Romney answered the question makes it easy to take it out of context. What he said, and rightly so, is that there is Obama's 47% who will back him no matter what and these are the people he was referring to. The ones who pay no taxes won't vote for Romney no matter what. And he's right.

The only place where he was wrong was to call a press conference to explain or apologize for his comments, everything he said is true so no explanation or apology was needed.

Not even that. He KNOWS he's not going to get the generational welfare families or the chronically unemployed. His statement, while poorly delivered, was speaking to those of us who do work and support these people. Linda saying that he was talking about the disabled or elderly is stupid as most people with a brain know exactly who he is referring to.

At least I know the basics, like not to put an apostrophe on a simple plural. That's part of the reason I'm part of the 53%! Literacy, it's a wonderful thing.

Too bad that they aren't worked up in a froth about the economy and the printing of money, causing the price of gas and food to go up while the earnings go down, or the debacle of the foreign policy (or what's masquerading as a foreign policy) in the Middle East.

The only debate SR and I have is over the value of wasting a minute on reading DU. I know that they're outrageous and don't need to waste my time reading their drivel to confirm my opinion of them.

Bullshit. He said no such thing. You cannot provide a quote to back up this absurd claim.

You're aware there's a video, right?
