I'm somewhat more concerned with what Team Obama wants to do with my money...
So, this Presidential wanna be Willard Mitt Romney ls :
a liar,
a tax fraud,
a military service dodger,
a job destroyer for profit,
a business destroyer for profit,
a Howdee Doodee racist,
a homophobe,
a woman hater who uses his wife like a prop,
someone who used to be for women's right to choose,
someone who used to be for the individual mandate,
a raging Vulture Capitalist.
Did I miss anything ?
Sounds like the perfect Republican candidate to me ! He totally fits the profile.
is this a trick question( sarcasm intended)? of course we should all be worried.
You better be more concerned of what Mitt wants to do with YOUR $$$$$!, foolish people!
Only a retard would think otherwise! Or someone who thinks their #1
Good post, Hope. I think you pretty much covered it.
How can any one vote for a man that doesn't invest in his own country.
That's because you don't love America enough to invest in it.
May I suggest you move to Somali who has no government at all and certainly no taxes or regulations.
You really have a problem!!!!President Obama wants the best for all Americans and that includes you, even if you hate his guts!!! Romney will steal all of your money and give it to his wealthy owners or slip it into his offshore account. Either way, you are not going to profit from any of your money.
"President Obama wants the best for all Americans and that includes you, even if you hate his guts!!!"
and that is the Mark of a Real American President!! no matter his name his race his party!!!
as he is the President of the United States!
not a cut out wannabe suit with no substance.
Dusty or was that Rusty,Everything Zippy Romney has done in his entire life has been with the Upper crust,fOR himself.We have President who was nourished on Food Stamps and Love.You people like to so Eloquently state that he was a community Organizer.Let me break that down for you,that was like the Peace Corp here at home.He was helping the Little Guy find a way to Improve his Life.Instead of rushing off to some big Law Firm where he could have gotten rewarded handsomely instead it was the People he thought about still does and You can't understand it,Why?Because you're an Idiot.
Hell YES - Why Would they take the money Out of the American System and ADD To the Total Deficit = Bring that Money Back Into OUR System -Keep It IN OUR COUNTRY and Pay Your TAXES Back Into OUR System = What You are Doing Goes AGAINST The American System --- DUH !!!!! I Mean Just How Selfish and Ignorant Are You Disgustingly Wealthy BassTurds - Wake-UP !!!! Not Only Are They Taking The Money OUT Of AMERICA - But They Are Putting that Money Into OTHER Countries - Which IS Absolutely STUPID !!!!
Wow Rusty...if the tables were TURNED I guess your question would THEN be 'if he's not confident enough to invest in AMERICA what is wrong with our BANKS?'
You weren't concerned about what Team Bush was doing with your secret unfunded money between 2001 and 2006 were you?
Wow Rusty...if the tables were TURNED I guess your question would THEN be 'if he's not confident enough to invest in AMERICA what is wrong with our BANKS?'
You weren't concerned about what Team Bush was doing with your secret unfunded money between 2001 and 2006 were you?
And you were not GW? Strange.
Mutt Robme is not only a DRAFT DODGER, he's also a TAX DODGER!
Robme's rep says Robme has followed the tax laws, except that those tax laws have been made skewed to the advantage of the very rich. What's more.... he wants to become president so that he can skew those tax laws even more to his advantage... by giving the 1% even bigger tax cuts.
THE GOP ARE SWINDLERS AND CROOKS AND MUTT ROBME IS THE HEAD SWINDLER... RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT OF THE 1%.
Amen, MD.
He can't release his tax returns because he will go to prison for fraud because he got his wealth by plundering corporate retirement funds.
That is illegal but can't be proven until he releases his tax returns.
OK everyone. Repeat after me.
Tax returns ... tax returns ... tax returns ... tax returns ... tax returns ... tax returns ...
Obama, wants to build roads, bridges, etc. with your and mine and everybody's money. It is called tax! Without tax, no Military, or no transportation, Obama does not put your money in his pocket like those millionairs and billionairs!Once again Hateful Hannity and fat boy Limbo having a labor pains. Can you imagine them being a woman? They are so hateful to be called Christains!

He who oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors God.

"Leadership gains authority and respect when the voiceless poor are treated fairly." Proverbs 29:14
A man of injustice is something detestable to the righteous ones, and one who is upright in his way is something detestable to a wicked one. Proverbs 29:27

Romney isn't a flip flopper.
Romney has a head injury.
Mitt Romney is called the "Tin Man" because he has brain damage.
Romney siphoned the bulk of his wealth from the poor and unemployed.
Pension funds are used as collateral to obtain impractically large loans, and Romney used these loan proceeds to siphoned off pension funds instead of using the loans for legitimate purpose of factory retrofit and other company improvements.
These retirement funds are guaranteed by the federal government through the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation (PBGC).
Bain Capitol has been firing employees and bankrupting companies so that they can extract money from retirement funds, which in turn becomes income for Mitt Romney.
The lead negotiator for the PBGC is Ms. Schneider, a former employee of Mitt Romney at Bain & Co., which is a clear conflict of interest that corrupts public trust in the federal bankruptcy process.
This represents a criminal conflict of interest that is prohibited by federal law.
He plundered every company that he controlled.
What will happen if he gets control of a whole country?
I thinks so especially if your a guy who dodges questions and the draft and dodges showing his tax returns he's got millions or billions hidden away! What interest does he have in the welfare of the country. He seems to care not about taking jobs away and raiding their pensions and sending jobs overseas for profit and pockets his ill gotten gains. Lie Cheat Steal if that's what you want no questions asked Willard's your guy!
I for one don't want a Yellow Bellied Blue Blooded Land Shark from offshore of the grand Cayman Islands to be in the Oval Office!
@wfototrac & xxx ooo
You both got that right... er, correct, regarding Rusty. It seems his brain has oxidized.... thus his name.
Banks create jobs by using money from investors to make loans.
Q.E.D.: Romney is a job creator OUTSIDE the US.
@GREATGRAN
Either Rusty is one of the 1% who wants that bigger tax cut that Robme is promising the rich, OR he suffering from oxidized brain syndrome. He's already at a disadvantage with the primitive conservative brain, incapable of rational thought or processing facts.
Romney set up an escape plan in case the SEC issues an warrant for his arrest.
He and family invested outside the US in order to establish dual citizenship so they can flee if anyone figures out the fraud used to obtain his wealth.
He's not betting against America. He's trying to avoid prison.
@Crackhead
Well.... that strategy runs in the family. Great Grandpa escaped to Mexico to avoid prison also... but for matters other than financial and tax fraud of course.
Flip Robme is avoiding paying taxes on this money he has off shored, not only that it is a flimsy excuse to state 'he does not know' where his money is. That is not true. He knows where every red cent of his money is, and he knows the 'rate of return' on this money. Plus he's going to make damned sure its not involved in something that's 'bubbling'.
Dick Cheney did this, and Flip here thinks he's going to get away with it too.
Let's see to it that he does not...
Ethelouise: Cheney is his real father! And no doubt he knows where his stolen money is. As you will remember he said "I pay all my taxes and not one cent more" What a Lying Cheating Thief!
XXX OOO
Good to see you!
Can a Mitt Romey be treated with penicillian?
@Never---No Stiffs have a build in resistance agent to penicillin. SORRY..
He only accepts injections of liquid assets! Or he blows his cookies!
Hope- you may be right. What should scare us all is that he is in an even heat with Obama. Our choice is what you describe vs a demonstrated incompetance. At this point, I'm willing to go with what you describe on the chance that he at least can find is butt with the economy.
ha, ha, haaa***
Perhaps, he only accepts injections of Bainicillian, Offshoreicillian, or Outsouricillian.
The only and I mean only reason to keep your money in a foreign bank if you are an American is dodging taxes. The American people know this and I'll tell you something else there are regular folk who normally would vote republican and if you asked them on camera will tell you they are voting for Romney but when that curtain closes and there is no one to see but them and their God they will pull the lever for Obama simply because Mitt's is a tax dodging 1%er who thinks all he has to do is say what the 99% ers wants to hear to get elected but he doesn't really have to have any principles or values in common with them. There are a lot of things money will buy but it wont buy every REAL AMERICAN'S VOTE.
Gee that is a long rope.....40 post in succession ? Hope....I love the way you put it in post #1.1
Mom- yep- and they're in a dead heat. An incompetant vs an unknown. What a quandry?
@Rusty,
I'm more concerned what an incompetent is going to to with my money than Romney. We elected a Community Organizer who doesn't know what he's doing and has surrounded himself with Green Energy buffoons. This President is in way over his head and needs to step aside for the good of the country. Really, this guy is incompetent. Obama got his chance and he failed miserably.
@Rusty aka oxidized brain
Now there you go bringing GW Moron into this. I thought you Repugs wanted us to stop mentioning that incompetent idiot... because you are tired of being reminded who it was that destroyed the country's economy and nearly caused the 2nd Depression (Hoover causing the first Depression... hummm.... it's always a Repug, isn't it) if President Obama hadn't pulled the country back and saved us from the that.
Of course, the Repugs lead by Turtleman McConnell and John Bonehead have been trying to steer us back down that road toward Depression and economic failure ever since. Mutt Robme will most definitely accomplish it in a short time if elected... but of course, Robme and the Repugs are just trying to BUY THE ELECTION.
Rusty
Well.... it's true that Mutt Robme is using all the same incompetent advisers that GW Moron used, both for his failed economic policies and his failed foreign policies... so you are right, I suppose Robme could already be considered incompetent. Since he seems to think that doing all the same failed policies will somehow create different results... how stupid is that?
But President Obama is actually quite well known (and loved and admired) both in the USA and around the world, after 3 and half years in office. So you are incorrect on that account. You really need to do something about that poor oxidized brain of yours... perhaps vinegar would help. It dissolves corrosion off batteries and leaves pennies bright and shiny.
@DScully,
How's that Democratically controlled Assembly working out for you in California?
Just fine... thanks. We don't have any legislation here in CA limiting or prohibiting women's choice, voter rights, union and collective bargaining rights or civil rights of any kind for that matter.
@Hope42012, RE: (Comment #1.1)
Not much, but I'll flesh out the immorality of Romney a bit more:
@Simpson-3800554 RE: (Comment #1.9)
In fact, the reason why Obama first ran for political office, as an Illinois State Senator, was that Obama took what he could do to help people as a Community Organizer very seriously, but he wanted to do more to help the people who were down and out and needed a hand up, than he could do as a Community Organizer. He climbed, subsequently, further up the political ladder, to Senator (D-IL) in Congress, followed by his current position as President.
In retrospect, we may well have been better off, in both the short- and long- run, had Hillary won the Democratic nomination, then elected President, with Obama remaining in the Senate to further develop, then hone his legislative skills, followed by running for President to succeed Hillary (especially given the very real possibility that Hillary may have decided one term was enough).
[Personally, I was skeptical about who would have been the functional Veep under a President Hillary, given that the Constitutional Veep could not have been her husband. The extraordinary job Hillary has done as SecState, along with Bill's dedication to the Clinton Global Initiative, has since convinced me that my skepticism was misplaced. Regardless, I have no regrets that Obama was elected President; I just wish that McConnell and the rest of the Republicans in Congress took their Constitutional obligation to put Country first and didn't concern themselves with politics, just policy.]
I guess you are also all outraged and concerned with Florida Democrat Representative and Chair of the Democratic National Committee Debbie Wasserman-Schultz having investments, in among other things, Swiss Banks, foreign drug companies and the State Bank of India?
Also, using the logic of many in here - if Romney is tax cheat due to foreign investments (where there is no proof by the way) I assumes the Wasserman-Schultz is also a tax cheat?
well last i check she was not running for president!
no one is saying he is a cheat, just some one who docent believe enough in his own country to invest in it. now what kind of sorry ass president will he make if he dont even want to invest in the greatness nation on earth.
but i can see why someone who also dont believe in America as yourself and the rest of the teapublicans wants someone who they hated until he was their man.
LOL
If Romney doesn't "believe in his own country to invest in his own country to invest in it" then neither does Wasserman-Schultz.
Also, last time I checked Wasserman-Schultz was an elected official to represent a district of American citizens while also serving as the chairwoman of a major political party - just like Romney is attempting to do (represent the American people) - but somehow there is a difference? I am curious where your cutoff is to when investing overseas is OK?
Also, don't insult me by saying I don't believe in America. I don't believe in YOUR and your liberal Democratic friends vision of America. Romney may have not been many people's first choice, but he is better than Obama. You liberals act like you have never gone through a Presidential primary. I remember in 2008 when Obama was every Democrats first choice and he breezed through. Oh wait, that didn't happen?
It is so funny watching you desperate liberals attempt to make Romney's money an issue to distract from Obama's terrible record. You should be more concerned with how the government spends your money than how Romney spends his own.
and it's even more fun to watch you teabaggers trying to defend a pos like robme knowing full well your boy will get his ass kicked in november. must be very frustrating for you and the rest of numbskulls. losers backing losers......see ya at the polls!
Loose- I don't think hpocrites care about what their side does, even if it is the same as the other side...
Scully- I assume you don't think I was saying Obama wasn't popular, at least in some circles. He is very popular on sites like these. No matter how poorly he performs, he gets about a dozen or two consistent apologists on here to explain away his total lack of success. I understand from your response that you're surely one of those counts...
John in Texas and Pilot - I also forgot to mention top Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett, who has a line of credit at at bank in....wait for it....BERMUDA. Or how the millions Nancy Pelosi made in Asian investments in 2011? Betting on America, right Pilot? Just supporting American Unions right John?
Rusty - the thing is liberal elites (Pelosi, Obama, Wasserman-Schultz) are not even really hypocrites, they don't care about Romney's money - they just see it as an easy way to manipulate guys like Shark and John. They are more like liars than outright hypocrites. All they want to do is distract from Obama's record. Unfortunately, as you can see from these posts, in works on some voters.
Rusty
I see the oxidation is still affecting your brain. I know exactly what you were alluding to.... though your allusions are just that, false and pretense and certainly not based on facts. And those other sites you refer to are also full of other ninnies like you who likewise are living in a fantasy world.... and choose to believe the lies they are told by the GOP and the Fox network... one of those sites full of ninnies you mentioned.
Where GWB was a genius who didn't destroy the economy through huge tax cuts for the rich and deregulation of everything else, allowing corporations and Wall street to rob the American public blind. He was not the liar that started 2 wars, one under false pretenses, sending thousands of Americans to the deaths in a false war. He was not the coward who ignored the security warnings he was given of an imminent attack by terrorists, and thus allowed the 911 attack to happen through his uncaring and incompetent failure to take seriously his oath to protect the country.
And since Mutt Robme has surrounded himself with all the same idiot advisers that GWB had, we can be assured that he will be just as incompetent as GWB. Truely, the only thing that Mutt Robme has ever been successful at was making himself rich by robbing the pensions from workers and tax payer subsidies from the government. Not exactly the ethical behavior most of us look for in a President, except maybe for your fellow ninnies on those other sites.
Of course, it's only the ignorant and gullible ninnies on those other sites you mentioned that believe those inane ideas, just as they believe that President Obama has raised taxes and done damage to the economy although all evidence contradicts those inane ideas. So I corrected your false and idiotic remarks in my response... though I know your rusty brain isn't able to process those facts.
Loose
I see you must belong to one of those other sites full of ninnies living in the fantasy world that GWB was a genius. Good luck to you with that.... you need it considering the corrosive condition of your primitive brains.
DScully - I am curious where I mentioned anything about support of GWB in any of my posts in this thread? Or like Pilot and John, you simply do not have what it takes to disprove or debate me, so you call names?
If Romney is such a bad guy for his overseas investments, please defend Wasserman-Schultz, Pelosi, and Jarrett. What is the difference?
Scully- I find it interesting you can cite failures on the right with exactness- but where Hussein Obummer is involved- you are pretty much blind to failure- choosing to somehow redefine him as success. Had a conservative told you an out-and-out lie, such as "pass this bill now and I'll keep unemployment beneath 8%"- you'd have thrown a little girl hissy fit...
Loose....
Frankly... the drivel that comes from you is more like a LOOSE STOOL, than a loose cannon. So arguing with you is a pointless waste of time.
I refuse to have a BATTLE OF WITS with an UNARMED PERSON. Try again when you develop the ability to think and reason logically.
Rusty
That oxidation on your brain is really fogging up your mind so I realize you can't comprehend the difference between failures and wins. So what failures would you like to discuss?
President Obama preventing the entire economy from collapsing? His saving and creating 4.4 million jobs in half the time it took GW Moron to create only 3 million? Oh yeah... maybe it was his planning and going after Osama bin Laden, then taking out nearly all the other AlQaeda leadership?
Or maybe it was his getting health reform passed, and then it being found Constitutional by one of the conservative justices on the SCOTUS? Or maybe all of those other policies and bills that have been passed and he's signed into law... because he promised to in his last election.
So far I'm not seeing a lot of failures on President Obama's part and he'll accomplish more during his 2nd term in office. Probably those things he hasn't been able to get done yet due to the idiots currently in control of the House.
More insults and name calling from DScully, yet nothing of any substance and again nothing to defend another pathetic argument from the left. I love when people like yourself comment on my posts, and then claim that they refuse to debate me due to my "lack of ability to think and reason logically." It would be comical, it wasn't so sad. :(
Yep- and it only took two things for him to creat and save that many jobs. 1) give an extremely high "saving jobs" rate becuase you could put any number in there whatsover- meaningless., and 2) spend about $500,000 per job created or saved- meaning that it is more like $1,500,000 for each job actually added.
You sure picked a winner there, Scully- The range of job creation coming out of the last 10 recoveries has been so much higher that your failure example has managed. And going forward- he doesn't have a chance- look how the economy is reacting to his administration as we speak.
Loose- it appears you are right in claiming these people aren't hypocrites, but liars. In fact, factcheck.org is saying Obama is a liar regarding claims on Romney and Bain. Guess it just confirms what many of us thought to begin with.
Yes. Certainly it is no patriotism for the part of an American specially for a President or a presidential candidate to keep money in a foreign bank. Loyalty to your country is a must for a presidential candidate and Mitt Romney doesn't have that.
I swear to uphold the Constitution of the United States and it's LAWS. That includes Tax Laws. What are you hiding Mittens? What is in those tax returns you don't want anyone to see?
yes , every former prez , has done it !!!!! why is mitt romoney afraid to show his own paperwork ???? because he did his best to hide money from the us99%a !!! but it was not hidden well enough !!!! amazing that if you are not rich ~ you are required to pay taxes !!! but if your $mitt-like$ and a repulsicon you can hide businesses and money anytime !!!!
it is crazy that anyone running to be an american president , can hide so much about his life and his policies !!! he can not answer anything truthfully !!! he has not said anything that he would do !!
someone so against the american economy ~ sending jobs away to foreign lands ~ dealing with a comunist country ( ie. china ) rhypocrits would never say anything bad about them !!!!!! unless it was dems who set up china to take over our economy !!!!! we99% should never vote for romoney !!!!!! vote dem ticket all votes !
Hey Chuck...SOMEBODY ELSE HAS SEEN HIS RETURN...he IRS.If there was anything illegal in this returns, don;t you think that the IRS would have done something about it? I mean, the returns were properly filed on time, with the proper authorities, so why do you think there is anything to hide?
just saying...
Besides no tax returns, there's *nothing* the GOP will us vet this mystery man on. Every lie Willard has told has been debunked. Yet there are fools out there who vote for a man they know absolutely nothing about because all they've been told are blatant lies. <shaking head>
Woe to this Country if he should get into the WH as a lackey for the new GOP.
Obama/Biden - our only choice to move FORWARD !!
Notice capt america just can't seem to grasp that the IRS does not see mittens wealth because it is in a tax haven where the IRS can't go. capt america has been told this many many many times.
@Storm Guy--you are wrong about the IRS seeing Mitt's tax return. He has applied for an extension to file this year. and when that extension had expired, he asked for, and got another one!---,MMM--wonder why?---just askin-
The IRS does not investigate pension fraud.
But someone will shortly after his and his wife's tax returns are released.
Mitt just can't trust the American Financial System: Therefore, Can The American Financial System trust him?
@Crackhead Awards
We should also say that the IRS will tax only what's reported on the return money off shored is not reported. Even though Flip Robme and his people claim he has paid the 'appropriate' amount that don't mean he paid the correct amount.
Rachael...oh...so this is the first year he has ever filed a return? I would have bet for sure that he had filed in previous years as well.
Could it be that he as filed for an extension just like millions of other Americans have because they don't have that time to get it all done? I mean, he has been rather busy campaigning for the presidency.
And how is anyone on this board going to be able to tell if he has paid the correct amount? Oh, thats right...you won't be able to..
just saying...
@Stormguy--Mitt has the option to go to the Country of his choice, withdraw some money, and pay any tax accountant to prepare his taxes. Remember this is a guy with enough money to spread out all over the world..Except America, that is.. That excuse you gave just won't hold water, too many holes in it...
You're right about no one ever knowing if he reports all his earnings, because even he said, he doesn't know where it all is. BLESS HIS HEART!
Rachael, Perhaps you overestimate the amount of organs he has. I want a recount! LOL
India--maybe you're right--he probably is missing the one that beats...
no rebuttal X--LOL
Stormguy53 #2.3~~Sure, he had stamped all over his return, "NANANANANA I have millions hidden in 6 other countries and you can't see it!"
Why do you feel you have to defend the crook. Did he not ship your job off shore and steal your livlihood, health insurance and retirement?
GG - How is he a crook? Are you whining because you are a wannabe who never will be because you don't have the personal drive to get it done? Sounds like a personal problem to me...
just saying...
Can a Mitt Romey be treated with penicillian?
@Ethelouise,
Very good catch.
Anonymous corporations are used to hide money, which becomes useful for anyone with an annual income more than about $250,000.
Anyone that owns more than 1 company can use bank accounts to play shell games.
Several states, like Delaware and Nevada, allow anonymous corporations where court order is required to identify officers with the financial authority to execute banking transactions. Only the banks know who can sign checks.
The IRS does not investigate security fraud. The IRS only knows who signed each tax return.
The SEC investigates securities fraud. The SEC doesn't receive tax returns for privately held companies.
SEC disclosure is only required for companies that are owned by the public via stock sales on NYSE or one of the commodity exchanges (public offerings). Nothing is reported to the SEC if the company is owned by the corporate officers (president or CEO).
Any money left over in a company is subject to tax within about 18 months. That is SEC territory.
Tax avoidance is done by using loans to isolate corporate entities on paper (securities). No taxes are paid on corporate income received through a loan from another company. Money that is loan out to another company is considered to be an investment, which is not subject to tax.
That is illegal if you own both companies, but you can't be prosecuted unless it can be proven.
Only the money that is paid out as dividend payments is taxed (income). That is called "profit".
The corporate tax rate on "profit" is less than half the top tax rate of personal income (15% instead of 35%).
It is impossible to track who owns what until you see the tax returns that show the dividend payments.
This is why Romney won't release his tax returns.
The super wealthy want to maintain this system.
C.A. Do you know you would make a good republican if you weren't so dam honest! I guess you never got rich enough huh?
Joke of the day!
I just figured out why Willard wouldn't take the cookies or the doughnuts. People were watching.
Stormguy53#2.15~~I have worked hard, managed well and have HONESTLY gained a very comfortable livlihood. I do not try to impresse anyone with having a gross amount of wealth, but I do have plenty. I have never expected, nor accepted a hand-out, but I do try to help those who are in need. Tax evasion is criminal, even for republicans as in Romney. You may be a crook, but, I am sure you are not evading your tax obligation by hiding your money in off shore banks, because you do not have enough money to hide off shore.
Hey stormguy, stop just sayin....
Greatgran 101, Don't even bother responding to him, he's not here for discourse or honest dialogue. He's just an Obama hater, here to make us angry and to distract us.
@Chuck-2258469
It's not only Mutt Robme violating laws of the land, that they have taken oaths to uphold.... this is the entire GOP who are guilty of that.
It includes laws regarding women's rights to choose via Roe vs. Wade..... which the Repugs continue to vote to repeal over and over to the exclusion of real jobs legislation. And which right is being made unavailable in many Repug run states by putting restrictive requirements on the clinics that provide those services.
It also includes the health reform law, ACA which the Repugs are also still continuing to waste time voting to repeal to the exclusion of real jobs legislation. And which many Repug Governors are still continuing to claim not to enact in their state as far as the Medicaid program, etc.
In both of these cases, the Repugs at both the Federal and state levels are not upholding the laws of the land and are violating their oaths of office. Of course, their oath to the lobbiest Grover Norquist seems to be more important in their cases.
It shows what he thinks of America.
Stormy
We're not concerned so much about illegal things on Robme's tax returns, since the Repugs have done their best to make the tax code favor the rich with oodles of loopholes.
We are more concerned about Robme's UNETHICAL TAX PRACTICES... not to mention his UNPATRIOTIC attitudes about paying a little in taxes as possible... and his reluctance to give back to this country which he claims has given him SO MUCH OPPORTUNITY.
Oh yes... where else would have have been able to scam the government so easily by taking over companies, applying for Federal bailout funds from the taxpayers, then bankrupting those companies and walking away with not only those federal funds but the workers pensions also. Then hiding those ill-gotten gains offshore to avoid paying any of the taxpayer money back.
What a SCAM... WHAT A SWINDLER... AND ROBME CALLS IT ALL CAPITALISM. NOW HE WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE 1%, SO HE CAN GIVE HIMSELF & HIS HIGHBROW VIP FRIENDS ANOTHER HUGE TAX CUT. HE MIGHT BE THE MOST UNETHICAL FELLOW TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT SINCE GWB OR MAYBE NIXON.
@Crackhead
Speaking of "anonymous corporations".... wasn't there something about Robme and his business partners forming a fake corporation a year or so ago.... contributing some large amounts of money to his campaign fund or a Superpac, then dissolving the fake corporation. Sounds a bit hinky and suspicious.
Romney did nothing illegal. If he did he wouldn't be running for President. Let's make a pact. Obama's college transcripts for Romney's tax returns. Who here wants to take that on? C'mon DScully, India, TheRealChris, xxxoo, Crackhead Awards?
Every President, except Obama, has willingly released his college transcripts. GWB's were less than stellar. Why has this President refused to release them? Maybe he just wants to add to the allure of his birth controversy? Even if he does, I still would like to see his college transcripts.
Give us a break drill
No other President has ever been asked for college transcripts, nor have I heard of any releasing them.
Also I didn't have to look at GWB transcripts to know they were "less than stellar". That was perfectly obvious from the moronic grin on his puss and his general incompetence.
As a teacher and professional, I've worked with retarded children all my life... and I can identify them pretty quickly.
By the way, a recent study was done which revealed that since the TEAbaggers and Repugs took over the Congress.... the grammar and content of the legislation being presented by those new members in the House has declined to a 10th grade level. Considering the obvious lack of intellect among these new members, it's not surprising.
Or not, because neither of these things matter really.
I don't care much about Obama's transcripts because college records don't mean all that much. I mean, George Bush went to Yale for crying out loud.
Tax evasion is criminal, but according to the current law what Romney is doing is neither criminal nor tax evasion from a legal standpoint. Sorry but that's the truth. And don't think for a minute the IRS isn't paying attention to what he's doing.
You can hate the players but if you don't like this you really should be hating the game. As long as the tax law allows people to do this, they're going to continue to do it.
There is no birth controversy drill. Obama is a US Citizen and there's no question about that.
And the Trans Pacific Partnership is going to make Romney look like a saint when it comes to outsourcing.
It's also proof that Obama supports and serves the same corporatist agenda no matter what he says about championing the cause of the middle class.
You guys are arguing minutia talking points over two candidates that propagandist rhetoric and BS aside have agendas that are virtually the same.
drill,
gwb's transcripts were released or leaked, take your pick.
if they were released, it appears they were tampered with, to hide failing grades, and classes he had to repeat.
how many "papers" do you want President Obama to release?
if it weren't for food stamps, AFDC, affirmative action, and the like, perhaps you all wouldn't have to deal with a president like President Obama.
is that your real complaint?
Good idea, SpillBaby. I'll get started on it right away.
"He can't release his tax returns because he will go to prison for fraud because he got his wealth by plundering corporate retirement funds.
That is illegal but can't be proven until he releases his tax returns"
The depth of ignorance on this site amazes me.
CRACKHEAD, and that name fits you well, the IRS looks at each and every return and for a return that has as much income as Romney's will investigate anything that appears non-legitimate. They don't have to wait to investigate until he releases it publicy because THEY ALREADY HAVE IT. And would have raised any concerns about questionalble income or deductions long before now. You libs are maazing
@Chilton
Sorry, but I have to disagree with your comment about "neither of these things mattering". It's true that President Obama's transcripts don't matter, as his brillance can be seen by all... except the most ignorant and bigoted on the right who are incapable of seeing the facts in front of them. They prefer to live in a world of make-believe right wing rhetoric instead of reality.
However, Robme's tax returns DO MATTER... not only because it's a matter of trust with the public, but the fact that he is reluctant to let that information be known adds to the distrust the public has of him. We do know that he made his millions in some very devious and unethical ways which took advantage of average American workers and Federal and state taxpayer funds. Robme's hiding his money in foreign banks to avoid US taxes is seen as UNPATRIOTIC in the eyes of most Americans of all political persuasions.
Yes but only if your a person who gives a $hit about the USA!
Were any of John Kerry's substantial funds held in foreign banks when he ran for President?? I see an absolute double standard here, in that it was okay for Kerry to be wealthy beyond the imagination of most Americans, but there seems to be a problem with Romney having wealth !!
I keep hearing about how there would only be two reasons to have foreign bank accounts - to hide your money so it wouldn;t be taxed, or to speculate in foreign mon ey rather than the dollar...
However, I can think of a third and fourth reason...
Some companies on foreign soil would prefer to deal in funds other than the American dollar... They may prefer to avoid dealings through American banks, or have paranoia regarding CIA/NSA/FBI operations or monitoring...
Another reason may be convenience... If the account holder spends a considerable amount of time in Europe or Bermuda, a local account may be simpler to deal with than constantly dealing with an institution here in the States... Some local vendors may prefer a local bank as well...
Nobody knows because nobody gave a @!$%# as long as it was legal. Does anybody care if Obama won't release his medical record or his college records. Not really. It is what it is, even if it is a secret. But every other presidential candidate did. Get real people, find a real issue. Ed has anybody accused you of being a horses patuty?
doolee25, what medical records has President Obama not released?? The President has a yearly physical & that information is released to the public EVERY YEAR. As far as his college records go, what has that got to do with running for President?? For that matter then why hasn't Mittens released his college records?? Showing his tax records shows his loyalty to the U.S. or the lack there of. Tax returns shows a lot about the character of a man.Since we already know that he has several off-shore accounts then him not being forthcoming with his tax returns just seems like he really has something bad that he wants to hide from the American people that would prevent him from being elected as President. It is really interesting that the same people who are always asking President Obama for his birth certificate could care less about Mittens' tax returns. Hypocrites!!
@xrayspec
Because John Kerry did not buy healthy companies, lay off workers, steal their pensions, load the company with debt and then sell them to unsuspecting buyers. It's not the fact that he has money, its who he destroyed to get it.
Basically destroying the middle class. Destroying the economy and chances are if he becomes President we will all be done for...
Doolee 25, vine rules say you do not attack Ed on this blog, or call him names.
Hopefully you'll be banned for that.
They did collapse him.
doolee25#3.3~~President Obama is the only president who has shown his birth certificate. If he had presented his medical record or his school record, you and your ilk would say it is not authentic.
xrayspex#3.1~~You are very ill-informed. You are presenting a double standard, Kerry married into money, he did not steal it from American workers and then stash his wealth in offshore banks. That was Romney who did that.
Not entirely true.
Mitt Romney is actually the first chicano presidential candidate (click here).
How remarkable is it that he managed to totally alienate the entire hispanic voting population.
Crackhead,
you are right, as always.
but President Obama was "forced" to show his, romney had an ulterior motive, whatever that may have been.
It's obvious mitt's 1st priority is hoarding his millions.
Imagine Mutt's disappointment when he finds he can't take it with him when he dies, then that he can't squeeze into Heaven because of it.
Matthew 19:24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a arich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
aMutt Robme
If you love your country so much, and are such a great business man, why would you NOT want to grow and invest your money in the country that you love so much? Now you are asking the rest of us to trust you.....please Mitt..smh@u.
Excellent post, Janice. I hope someone will ask willard that question in a debate.
Swiss bank accounts don't help the country. You can't build roads and bridges from Swiss accounts. To me it is un-American and I don't want someone who cares so little about this country to RUN IT!
Agree, Janice. I can't even remember him ever using the phrase "God bless America". Guess he loves his money more.
kv...
Then again, his God resides on the planet Kolob....
Hi Janice Tarrant,
Good point.
Why vote for someone that used his money to vote against America?
he wont use ~ GOD bless america !!!! he is a mormon !!!! they do not believe in GOD the Father / JESUS and the WHOLLY ghost ! that is until the mormons choose to make you a mormon - after your dead !!! they say MORMON GOD and MORMON JESUS !!!! and no ghost !!! what happened to evangelecals wanting a prez who is a CHRISTIAN ONLY ?!~?! whommmmm !
SEE how BONER thinks JUST BECAUSE HE and the REPUBLICONS VOTED 30Xs to GET RID of AFFORDABLE HEALTHCARE , that this is WHAT the PEOPLE WANT, YEAH RIGHT ?????? The REPULSICONS DO NOT WANT to LISTEN or FOLLOW WHAT the SUPREME COURT SAID ANYMORE !!!! AND the 99% of AMERICANS !!! They JUST LIVE for THEMSELVES , ONLY !!!!
Why don't we have a chance to vote to take Boner's & the other Republicons healthcare away?? If they don't want Americans to have affordable healthcare then they shouldn't be able to have healthcare either. THe same goes for all those idiot Republicon Governors.
azcardsfan, I agree. It is monstrous that they are trying to stop the poor and unfortunate from having Medicaid. It is immoral.
They need to go in November.
Not exactly David,
Kolob is not a planet, but a star... like the sun. It is the CLOSEST star or sun to where God resides, NOT WHERE He resides. So that is something among many of the things that the website peddling false information about the church.... got wrong.
I realize you ment this as a joke, but...I wish we could all leave religion out of this since it doesn't really have any thing to do with this. Also most here don't really know what they are talking about when it comes to Robme's religion. Except the false and misleading information they are getting from somewhere.... instead of from me who is someone who knows.
Again... if any of you are really interested in knowing about Mormons and what they believe, I wish you would ask me. Unless you just like getting the false info from the website instead... but I will call you on it when you're wrong. I don't appreciate the sacred beliefs from any religion being made fun of... whether it's mine, Robme's or any of yours.
@TOYBB
Excuse me! How in the HELL do you know WHAT MORMONS BELIEVE? Have you ever been to an LDS church or talked to a Mormon about their RELIGION? I have on both accounts.
I WAS A MORMON FOR OVER 20 YEARS and I can tell you for a FACT... THEY BELIEVE IN GOD THE FATHER, JESUS CHRIST AND THE HOLY GHOST. AND YES... THEY ARE CHRISTIANS.
I'M REALLY GETTING TIRED OF THIS OBNOXIOUS BIGOTED CRAP!
@India and azcard
I heard something about Nancy Pelosi or some other Democrat in the House bringing up a proposal today to take the government health care away from those who voted for the Obamacare repeal today.
Of course, the Repugs voted it down immediately... because apparently they like their government health care.... even though they don't want us to be able to have it.
But you are right, we the citizens should be given a chance to vote on whether or not they keep their health care and not leave it for those hypocritical Reps in the House to vote on.
Define "concerned" is it illegal certainly not, atleast not mostly however this does play into the long running and rather honest narrative that Mitt Romney is not aware of and has not had to deal with the issues of average Americans. It is another piece of evidence that says Mitt Romney is not a regular American which wouldn't be a problem if he wasn't pretending to be for votes.
It also is a little funny he says he has so much faith in America and yet he is hedging his bets on other countries, it shouldn't take a political genius to see how many people would view that as a sign of dishonesty. A quality Mitt also seems to show in order to get votes.
How are you going to become the leader of America which you say you have so much faith in and you've got your bets with other horses? He can't dressage his way out of that.
My tweet just went over Ed's show! (WOW) Here it is, "A blind trust won't fool an electorate with 20-20 vision!"
There are some really weird things happening with the posting tonight India . . . lots of multiples etc !
i saw that india.
Way to go India! I did not see it because I have that Hopper from Dish and they cannot fit the picture in the screen right so that bottom line is 'missing' and there is something wrong with the board, it was very hard to sign on.
Ethelouise, One of mine went on last night, too. I am so thrilled I am blowing my own horn, that's not good!! I apologize.
If you don't blow it, it may not get blown. Keep it up.
India LeCarre~~I just saw your tweet scroll accross the screen!!!!!!
OMG! I am officially a celebrity now! LOL I posted you a comment on #11.9, great gran 101.
so is this a trick question(sarcasm intended here)?. yes we should all be worried even old rusty-for-brains up there,
Deja vu !
If you are willing to hide your money from paying your fair share of tax's, then what else are you willing to hide when you would be in office??? NOT worth finding out.
How is he hiding it if everyone knows about it?
just saying...
You are just saying nothing but you show your Texas sized ignorance on what tax havens are and how they work.
There's a second way to get Romney to release his tax returns.
Indite him for pension fraud.
@Crackhead Awards
I wish we could. I am tired of them investigating Democrats for 'implied charges' we should be able to 'nail' them for something.
Ditto.
Romney became the outsourcer-in-chief by robbing pension fund savings from hundreds of thousands of people, firing them, sending their jobs to Asia.
Clever how every insult used by republicans actually involves their own unethical behavior.
"SNEAKY" The invisible wall that he made..Is what makes him more sneaky...Maybe I am wrong..but he brought upon himself...The dog story tells me all I need to know. It says it all.
I suppose he likes his money and jobs over seas. Romney for President???
maybe he should be running for President of Bermuda, or the Cayman's, or Switzerland. He probably has more money in those countries and owns more property in those countries than he owns here.
Jason,#10, Yeah, of Switzerland. LOL
That way we are free of him and he can be closer to his first love: his money!
Romney has foreign investments so that he can escape prosecution if someone decides to prosecute him for pension fraud (click here).
Crackhead Awards, I clicked, but I am not clear on what pension fraud you are talking about.
I certainly hope you are right. Could you elaborate a bit on that?
HI India
I don't know if this is what Crackhead is referring to, but last week on Jennifer Granholm's War Room show on Current... she was discussing the fact that Robme somehow has an exorbinant amount of money in his 401K. It is worth more than it should be considering the fact that only a limited amount can be deposited in a 401K each year. But there is more in his account than is possible based on those limitations. Somehow Robme got more money into his 401K than he should have legally been able to put in.
Thanks, Scully. I hadn't heard that.
India
Well... the only reason I heard anything about it is because I watch Jennifer Granholm's show on Current. I think she was discussing it on her show last week. But I don't remember hearing any mention of it on any of the MSNBC shows. And like I said, I don't know if that is what Crackhead was referring to or not.
Someone wanting to be the President of this country but invest his money in other countries. Tells me he does not think much of the country he wants to run. Just who will truly be running this country?
The Mormon Church. Romney will do what ever they tell him to do. That is what ALL good Mormons do.
Whoever "we" is as in "All we need is a person with enough digits to hold a pen and sign his name".
Whoever that will be, I'm sure *everyone* won't like unless they're allowed in the elite class.
I chuckle when I think about that snob who said her uneducated helpers "just don't understand how it works". She only *might* be chosen to give queen Ann a manicure. Hahaha. There's one born every minute.
If Romney (God Forbid) gets elected, His wealthy owners, Koch brothers, Grover Norquist, (the I will take all of your taxes man), Karl Rove (Bushs' worn out brain), and all of those evil un-elected republicans, will be running, (this once great nation) right back into the ditch, that President Obama is working so hard, (and very successfully) to dig us out of.
kgolden49 All those rich folks who are donating millions of dollars to the GOP will be running the country if Romney wins the White House.
Let's review----They all sign allegiance to Grover and they put all their money into off-shore accounts and they want to buy the US Government
And they want my vote???H##L NO I'm an independent and I will not vote for ANY Rep. this November!! !America is not FOR SALE to the 1%
Greatgran101, I have to ask if you are the 101 yr. old great gran they interviewed in NPR today, or if that that 101 means something else.
They interviewed her because she uses a computer. Amazing!
Good Evening Kathe/Tacoma that fine gentile mans Name Was Grover Norquist that suggested they (Republicans) only needed someone with enough digits to hold a pen to sign their Legislation's.No Brains mind you but fingers.If they get Zippy that's exactly what they'll have,working class Republicans you're not smart enough to vote.
@_INDIA---WOW---WOW WOW! my friend..something that makes you go -hummm
India LeCarre~~No, I was not on NPR and no I am not 101, but I am a Greatgran for almost 18 years. I now have added 2 greatgrand daughters, almost 2 years ago. I have a wonderful family of which I feel so very blessed and proud of. Thanks India for asking, I am very happy to share this info with you and anyone who may be interested. I am trying to extend my life to the century mark and get my letter from the president, but that will be another 25 years!
Greatgran101, Thank you for the lovely response. You are so literate, and so was the woman they interviewed today. Sharp as a tack! Like you!
Sounds like you are very blessed with a nice family.
India LeCarre~~Thank you, you are so kind!
@Xena
I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with your comments about Robme "doing what the Mormon church tells him to". As a former member of the LDS church, I was what could be considered a "good Mormon" yet I was not told what to do politically, nor would I have allowed myself to be directed in that way. Of course I was a progressive Democrat, before, during and after my involvement in the church and I never voted for a Repug or support conservative causes.
Mutt Robme's behavior and policies are not caused from being a Mormon, but from being an out of touch rich guy and because he is trying to pander to the right wing nut wackos in the GOP. It is those factors that Robme will be influenced by... his rich donars who expect him to cut their taxes and regulations.... and the TEA baggers who want to destroy what remains of the government. And of course, Grover Norquist has made it clear that they don't want someone who thinks or has opinions of his own. They only want someone to sign the bills they made law... like those for tax cuts that will finish off the government as something for the people and only work for corporations.
Most of the members of the church I know are either in the middle or lower class, and are struggling to survive just like the majority of Americans. They are not out of touch like Robme, nor wacky fanatics like TEAbaggers nor as fanatical as Evangelicals. But unfortunately.... most are conservatives and vote against their own best interests by voting Repug for the most part... and often out of habit more than real thought. This is simply because they are deluded into believing that the GOP are serving them and real Christian purposes rather than mammon like the Koch brothers and the oil companies. In some cases, they vote for Repugs out of habit without any real thought in the matter.
One of my friends in the church voted for GW Bush in 2004 without knowing or even thinking about what any of his policies were. She voted for the Repug out of habit. When I talked with her about it later.. and I filled her in on what Bush's policies.. she disagreed with most of them and wished she hadn't voted as she did. My discussion with her made her start paying more attention to what policies candidates had and in 2008, she voted for Obama because she agreed with his views on reforming health care among other things. So you see.... some Mormons can be very sensible and are capable of seeing reason when other more rabid right wing wacko groups are not.
@Simpson
Yeah... I saw that clip where Grover Norquist says that they don't need someone to think, but only with enough fingers to hold a pen and sign their bills. Of course, it's been obvious for more than a decade that Repugs don't put a lot of stock in electing someone with a brain.... since they gave us our first Moron President in GWB. He was stupid enough to follow all of their idiot policies, and send the country spiraling toward destruction. Robme is just enough of a puppet and without any seeming convictions of his own to do the same.
How can we trust someone who doesn't love his country enough to keep his money in it?
Mitt looks at it like this: "Let them eat cake" He doesn't know or care about the American middle class or the poor. He is on a gigantic ego trip. He just want to be president just because it's his turn.
Nancebelle, It's his turn because of his Wall Street connections. It is who THEY want. That's why it's his turn. That's why Jon Huntsman dropped out and that's why only the T-party idiots were left to make him look like he was the "normal" one in the group.
We are being led to believe we the people have the choice. We don't.
My very real fear is that it is a permanent loss.
Hell Yes!
why, well it means he dont care about the US, also guess it fits as he must be getting foreign money as well. that could be the biggest reason he dont do the correct thing. heck how do we know he is is not a foreign agent now. :-)
does he have to guess technically no, but once again he could do the right/wrong thing or the Correct thing.
No wonder Mitt Romney wants to keep this discussion confined strictly to “quiet rooms”. I would too if I had stashed so many of the millions I made from off-shoring jobs and all these other revolting business practices into secret off-shore accounts. But it is time for America to have this discussion- and not just in quiet room...Sneaky bas---
I think that if you are American, and claim to LOVE this country, and wrap yourself in the flag, then keep your money here and invest your money in America. If you want to be the President of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, then keep your money in THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
If he was a true patriot, he would have all of his money in his country. Not hiding it elsewhere. If he wants to hide it, lock it in a freezer.
hello, handshake
where about in Oregon? Portland area here.
About 200 miles south. Douglas County.
well glad to meet you. another Vet here.
OREGON VET - Semper Fi neighbor - if you remember it right,sMITT ROMNEY was a draft dodger.Anyhow,I would rather hide my money in a basement or a concrete bunker.
Thank You to all Veterans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice to see so many vets and really glad to see Oregon is tops
Ted...Obama served in which branch of the military?
Apparently your accusation does not carry much weight with US military veterans since according to a Gallup poll, Veterans prefer Romney over Obama by a count of 58% -34%.
just saying...
Stop sayin nonsense.
@Stormguy53
Where did you get that from? Townhall or Bob Livingston? I'll bet good money that the poll is inaccurate.
We should all thank those who served for their service. And Obama was not old enough for Vietmam. Flip Robme is.
Evening Oregon Vet, Pilotshark. Albany here. Vietnam.
STORMGUY - For your info,I don't care for no politician no matter which party they are affiliated with. Obama was in grade school during the Vietnam war and more than likely too old to go into the military during the first gulf war.So what's your point ?
My husband is a vet, Air Force. He's an Obama supporter and would never vote for a four time draft dodging hypocrite like Mitt Romney!
Ted, the point is on Storm's head!
#16.7 Romney dodged the draft you can't argument otherwise, that is what happened. Now many others did as well but this wouldn't be a problem for him if he didn't protest in support of the Vietnam war and wants to send more troops back to the middle east.
Neither Obama or Romney were in the military but only one of those two men is saying we should send troops back into Iraq and Afghanistan.
Romney's problem is that he wants to expand wars and when you never served and have no one in your immediate family who served you don't get to be first in line supporting any war or calling for another to begin
ETHELlOUISE
THIS IS FOR YOU!!!
Poll: Veterans Overwhelmingly Support Romney Over Obama
Presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney leads a new poll this week showing veterans would pick him over President Barack Obama.
And, unlike the 2008 presidential election, when Sen. John McCain won 54 percent of the veteran vote, neither Obama nor Romney is earning an edge based off of experience (or lack thereof) in the military.
The Gallup poll shows 58 percent of veterans prefer Romney, compared to 34 percent who support the president.
@justatingitasitis
Again you have no reading comprehension. 13% of the adult population does not mean a deciding factor in a national election. Nowhere does it state that the 13% were 'likely voters'. And yes you guys got that information from the right wing propaganda boards.
PRINCETON, NJ -- U.S. veterans, about 13% of the adult population and consisting mostly of older men, support Mitt Romney over Barack Obama for president by 58% to 34%, while nonveterans give Obama a four-percentage-point edge.
I posted that from Gallup, I noticed that all the boards you insist upon reading do not state this FACT.
You are a troll and I hope you get BANNED.
Stormy
Of course.... what you don't mention is that those veterans for Robme are all who took bullets to the brain in GW Moron's fake Iraq war. He sent them there to look for fake WMD, now they want a fake patriot for President. Or maybe they were just brain dead and bigoted Repugs before that..
@Cynical Citizen
You are correct on that, and on the fact that Robme actively supported the draft for other young men to be sent to Vietnam... then applied for 4 deferments from serving himself.
As for Obama... he wasn't old enough during Vietnam to serve, and then gave more thought to the Iraq war than GWB did. He voted against it as a Senator and I'm sure he didn't want to see soldiers being lost and money being wasted on a war based on false pretenses.
GWB didn't seem to mind doing either, and neither would Mutt Robme.
Just another example of putting self before country!
He should keep it in a lockbox like Al Gore does.
Mitt Romney is a fraud and everyone should and knows that!!!! Shame on Mittens......
I got to hear the no voters reasons on this one.
No brains, No common sense.
First, I can't believe that they would allow someone with your grammatical acumen to even vote, let alone your political viewpoint.
I got to hear the yes voters on this one
Romney gonna lose his ass!
While most Americans continue to disapprove of Obama's handling of the economy, that's not his only problem.
More than half fault him on health care and immigration as well.
Sixty-three percent say the country's headed in the wrong direction, an unhelpful view for an incumbent.
And among groups, he's losing swing-voting independents by a record 14 percentage points.
And the Independents will DECIDE THIS ELECTION

The majority of "Sane Americans are really angry at the DUST Bunnies in the HOUSE! It's the stench that has the smell of the "NERD"Eric Cantor, the rotten egg smell coming from Mitch O'connell and the smell of alcohol from John Boehener. This is what TRUE Americans are disenchanted with, as well as with all that rotten FERMENTED TEA CREW like Paul Ryun. In fact I can't think of one decent REPUB at the moment. They are all CROOKS AND MITT BOY IS THEIR news well...WHIPPING BOY!! He is just what Karl Rove loves to manipulate.

@Viewer
LOL... and remember when the polls used to show Robme being rated lower than the "GENERIC" GOP candidate. The Repugs liked a NON-EXISTENT candidate better than ROBME.
I bet it would be a closer race for the Presidency if the Generic GOP candidate was running against Obama.
