Horrible Horrible Horrible!

This is the very same man that wants to be POTUS! He cared not that people suffered while their basic human rights were trashed instead his only concern was making a profit. He had the audacity to bragg about it to those who attended his fundraiser.

Bastard.

2. non story - check the facts

likely wont go viral because of the facts...

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/post/4-pinocchios-for-obamas-newest-anti-romney-ad/2012/06/20/gJQAGux6qV_blog.html

a non story unless you are also going to condemn everyone involved with Apple, Nike, etc..

and what of our current government?
$39 million to Cre inc - then started first ever plant in China
$337 million to Az solar company who then buys them from SunTech (China)
GE's whole wind turbine outsourcing with stimulus cash
Solar Power industries receipt of $5.4 million grant to outsource to China
GM's outsourcing...
etc..

To both Obama and Romney's credit, "outsourcing" is typically implemented because no one makes that stuff here.

4. Is anyone from Apple, Nike, etc running for POTUS? No. They are not.

But the CEO of Bain Capital is.

Mitt Romney is a pathological liar. It's been proven over and over again. To think that the man who desperately wants to be POTUS tells voters that he cares about the middle class, the workers, the poor when he had absolutely no problem utilizing slaved labor (and he was directly involved) is in direct conflict with his decisions as the CEO of a vulture capitalist company.

Did he even make an attempt to relieve the suffering of these laborers? No he did not. Did he speak up at all? No he did not. Did he care about those laborers? No he did not.

Mitt Romney told the truth at that fundraiser. He told us ALL what he really thought of those who are not part of the 1% and that 47% of Americans are lazy and dependent on the government for their very existence.

What did Mitt Romney care about most? Making a profit and stashing it in the Cayman Islands, Bermuda and in Swiss bank accounts. He did this at the expense of humanity.

Mitt Romney is the one who wants the American voter to use his business experience as an example of one his qualifications to become POTUS.

6. I see the difference and call bullshit. Unless Obama was a CEO of a company, visited that company

knew about the working conditions at that company and bragged about it his fellow wealthy elites AND is anti-Social Security, anti-Medicare, anti-Medicaid, anti-SNAPS, anti-Unemployment (agreeing with the Ryan Budget by chosing the creator of the Ryan Budget), then perhaps.

But we all know that POTUS did not do this. Romney did. He is the face of the 1%, the fat cat cigar smoking pig that seeks to destroy what makes this country strong. Low wages, long hours, no unions, no workers rights, etc.

Romney's God is money - how he gets it, where he gets it, who he steps on to get it, who he destroys to get it, matters not to him but should make all the difference to the rest of us.

8. It doesn't matter

Look, Obama is not pocketing millions by this. Mitt Romeny is. Obama is starting to put his foot down to China. He stopped them from buying land in Oregon for their wind power plan just a few days ago. Also, Mittens lied about being the sole shareholder of Bain.

9. I wish we still held our overpaid media to doing their jobs, not just keeping them.

Thank God for the Internets. How would we be informed to a wide range
of independent thinking over the corporate lapdogs if we didn't have th
system that Al Gore invented?

And are George W. Bush and Dick Cheney in a black hole somewhere yet they invented?
