I'm Mitt Romney bitches and I'm all you got left!

MotherJones is releasing the full 1-hour Romney donor speaking video at 2:30pm eastern.

Update: Here it is: http://www.motherjones.com/politics/...ney-fundraiser

Romney speaking at last nights presser: pale, shaking, definitely rattled. He's done and he knows it.

And if he can't handle a campaign disaster, how could he handle the 3am phone call?

Romney is giving a live interview today on Fox News at 4:00pm Snort. Giggle.

#RomneyShambles

Yeah - I voted for Obama the first time, because McCain picked Palin. I'm voting for Obama the second time, because he's doing a damn good job.

More red herring anyone, is anyone still hungry?

I am sure there will be more to distract everyone before November...

How a president candidate views - and dismisses as freeloaders - half the population of the country is no red herring. It is a searingly accurate reveal of how this man views this country, and it's citizens.

And the fact that his 47% meme is an untrue lie makes it worse, and just compounds Romney's documented history of blatent lying

I don't mind that someone doesn't want to vote for Obama, but to vote for this particular mendacious, foreign-policy incompetent person is like voting for Sarah Palin for president - oh, and getting the ex-W.Bush foreign policy crew back in power. Third party candidates are the only other valid choice.

The GOP knows that Ron Paul would have drawn at least 1/3 of the "R" votes away from Romney, which is why they destroyed the man.

its phrasing was "inelegant." What, does he think if he said all that stuff in French, it would have come off better?

yeah, i laughed.




I speak Money, bitches, and if you didn't learn it when you were young, there ain't no Rosetta Stone you can use to play catch-up now. We spoke Money at home. We spoke Money at prep school. Parlez-vous franc? Sprechen sie Deutschmark? You don't speak Money, you don't speak to me, because, well:

I'm Mitt Romney, bitches, and I'm all you got left.



and he's the best the republicans could get...that's sad. that's one big nail, perhaps the last?, in the coffin known as the gop. maybe they could start calling it the gdp as in grand defunct.




Got a little secret for you all. I don't care if I win. I never did. Oh, I want the job because I'm entitled to it. It's the inexorable next step in my golden existence. But it's not like I actually wanted to do the job. It was a prize, something to hang over one of my mantlepieces or another. But, you know what happens the day after I lose to Obama? A whole bunch of you start typing your resumes, and writing your essays about how I fked the whole thing up six ways from Sunday, and Whither The Conservative Movement? and all that malarkey. Maybe I take some folks from Congress down with me, and they all go to the Fox studios and run around the set of Hannity's program until the music stops, and one of them doesn't find a chair, and that one has to go home and do morning drive in East Jesus, Florida.

Me? You know what I do? I go to Malibu and I ride the car elevator up and I look at the sun go down over the Pacific. And then I do the same thing the next day. And the day after that. And do you know what my great-grandchildren are going to do, while yours are groping through the Cormac McCarthy novel that President Paul Ryan's two terms have left them after 2026?

The same thing I did.

hey, joey
 

twice this morning, coach about 7:30, and me a few hours later, asked you a question. it's yet to be answered.

what will romney do that will be better than obama? which of his plans do you most approve of?

Lets make a list, I will start. Name something going on in our country more important than Romney saying he knows that a large group of people would not vote for him.

Afghanistan.

Next?

… he’s asked a question and answers off the cuff … just shows a lack of patience and thinking in him … we’ve seen it many times lately with Mitt …. Ok’ing Eastwood unscripted for no reason, insulting England/London for no reason, jumping the gun on Libya for no reason and now adding in these insulting words to an answer for no reason … he just doesn’t think … he just reacts and thinks he is on script but that is all .. kind of like putting a dog on a car roof for 12 hours … not very thoughtful … may meet your needs and only yours but that is the problem … he isn’t the only one to consider … which is all he does … layoffs, offshore, etc … no problem for him … and why? … why? … if you know you are going to run for President to you not have a plan to deal with iffy tax returns and still maintain offshore accounts … why? … that is either astoundingly arrogant or just not thinking it through at all or both … but it ain’t Presidential.

:tro::tro:

Well said, J

Um .. that wasn't part of the sentences Romney spoke that are getting him raked over the coals right now.

Excellent point. What is Romney's position on Afghanistan?

"There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. "

http://abcnews.go.com/International/...8#.UFjcp5YgqF8

Nothing to see here, keep looking that way...

Yes, so? That, again, is not what Romney said, that has created this firestorm.

Characterizing half the citizens of this country as freeloading moochers, living off the government , who will never "take personal responsibility for their lives", is insulting to every American, beyond the pale.

It just matches everything Romney has said previously on the campaign trail. Nobody could believe Romney actually thought like this - he does, and the horror of this tape is that it proves what everyone suspected about Romney.

That the 47% he speaks of consists of elderly seniors, the very poor and lower middle class, and disabled veterans is disgusting.

Some of us can multi-task. Thanks. Especially when it comes to evaluation and choosing the person who will be responsible for the US dealing with Al Quaeda in 3 months.

Frankly, I'll go with the experienced, knowledgable, nuanced, strong guy who has killed bin Laden and multiple Al Quaeda operatives, not the inexperienced guy with zero foreign policy experience, who offends our allies and wants to start war with Iran.

I have had you on ignore for a long time now but wanted to see your opinion on this firestorm of a video that has been released so I took a look. I would love to hear more of the President behind closed doors, or even answering a single unscripted question for that matter but we will never have that besides "that's why 'they' cling to their guns and bibles".

I have never given any flack to the President for his continuation of Bush's policies that led to the discovery and killing of OBL and will continue to give credit to the operatives that performed the task and the President for giving the order.

bit what he says is important, considering the job he's applying for. i find his attitude appalling. it's not the first time he's referenced people he needn't 'worry about'.

i know, i just want to know from joey what he thinks mitt will do that will be 'better'...cause i'm just not seeing it. and i'm no fan of obama.

and yes, mitt is a conceited, arrogant, idiot. i feel that's exactly why he won't issue prior year returns, it'll put him in a bad light-and he's already in hot water.
and if one more person says 'yeah, but obama should show his transcripts' i think my head will explode. wtf do transcripts have to do with policy? but you can bet your sweet ass i want to know exactly what mitt thinks-and how he acts-regarding income and taxes, and loopholes. and nothing would exhibit his thought processes more than seeing what he did with his money.

thing is tho...a lot of people do cling to their guns and bibles. he had a point there. i know, i live around a lot of them.

There are many one-on-one interviews available on YouTube of the President talking, unscripted, both to individual reporters and press pools. Oh, and a major meeting that was televised live between Republican leadership and the President - which caused the GOP to cancel the idea of a monthly publicized meeting as Obama raked their asses over the coals on CSpan.

And there are several books discussing the "behind the scenes" of the administration's first years in office.

Do you not read or watch television?

PS - your statement is called "a red herring" ;) Nice try changing the subject to an untrue falsity.

Here is the entire "guns and religion" quote by President Obama. The obvious difference between Obama and Romney? Obama wasn't dissing anybody, he was showing understanding and empathy.

Obama was also saying he would represent and help these people - as opposed to Romney saying he would ignore half of America.

http://articles.latimes.com/2012/aug...ility-20120819

Always available for the hard hitting questions. Please.
Your defense of the President in all facets is a joke and you are the only one here that still seems to believe he is somehow different than the rest of DC, it is still a joke to watch you defend Him over and over again despite the fact that he is a typical Chicago style DC retread of those before him and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wall St.
Back on ignore with you.

Of course - ignore is easier than reading the info that you allege you seek. Or debate and discussion based upon questioning, rationality and facts. It's how cults like the rabid right wing (not conservatives) keep their members and keep the Obama Derangement Syndrome of fear and scare tactics brewing.

Look out! His middle name is Hussein! MUSLIM! KENYAN! NOT ONE OF US! ANTI-AMERICAN COLONIAL VALUES! BIRTH CERTIFICATE FAKED! APOLOGIES FOR AMERICA! COMMUNIST! CHICAGO POLITICS! OWNED BY WALL STREET! SOCIALIST!

I especially like the "owned by Wall Street" one - LOL

That is funny :)

Good for Romney for having the guts to stick by his words unlike the lying weasel Obama who couldn't admit that he attended a church every Sunday for 20 years and listened to some nut job spew racist hateful garbage.

I am still trying to figure what was wrong with what Romney said, big deal he insulted lazy, freeloading moochers who weren't voting for him anyone. He correctly stated that he doesn't have to worry about getting their votes because they are obviously voting for their sugar daddy Obama. Besides the usual nut liberal writers and bloggers I really don't see anyone else making a big deal about this, but then again those nut job liberal writers have been trying to bring down Romney since day one so maybe most people have just tuned them out.

Personally I am more concerned that Obama is more concerned about the feelings of murdering, intolerant thugs over protecting the free speech rights of an American, if he gets away with this who knows which rights he will be coming for next.

wasn't there a lot of fair share raising taxes on the wealthy talk four years ago that never really materialized?

Like my mom who gets Social Security or my friend who just got layed off due to his job being shipped overseas?

What ignorant WND RWNJ nonsense. Provide any quote that proves your false statement, or shut up with your crazy lies. Put up or shut up, Sockpuppet.

Yes - do you know what that was not passed? Hint: Paul Ryan, John Boehner, Eric Cantor. But, Obama has done other things to start to lower the deficit on his own.

Do you know where The American Jobs Act is? Blocked in the House. Where the Veterans Jobs Act is? Blocked in the House.

Do you know how many jobs bills to help Americans the House has passed in the past four years, "Job One is creating jobs" according to Republican House Leader John Boehner? Zero.

That's right - the biggest unemployment since the Great Depression, and the Republican majority in the House have done exactly zero to change it - oh, they have blocked everything Obama has tried to get passed, which is why he's done all he can within the executive branch, which is why we've had 48 straight months of steady but low job growth, at least.

Mitch McConnell publicly stated he would sacrifice the country to defeat Obama. Paul Ryan, on the night Obama was inaugurated, was in a meeting with Frank Luntz and Newt Gingrich and other House/Senate Republicans devising ways to block any Obama accomplishments.

They deserve to be thrown out of government.

Not only is Obama going to win, but current polling shows the Democrats will likely hold the Senate, and now the House is in play. Those two bills can be passed in a few months, January 2013, as soon as the GOP obstructionists and Tea Party are removed from office. And that will create two million jobs by next summer. Nice.

And this sea change is being lead by Mitt Romney, the completely unqualified plutocrat government candidate, supported by gullible theocratic evangelicals.

The real remaining "Republican Party" members are standing back, aghast in horror at what has happened over the past 4 years, and hoping the party brand will emerge somehow from all this intact.

More on the new Romney video released today
 

Mitt's Middle Eastern Policy:

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/0...lf?detail=hide

(Video available on page linked, above)

Dems gave in on extending the bush tax cuts in exchange for keeping unemployment benefits funded. Just like this upcoming round, dems want only the middle and lower to keep the cuts. Reps want it to continue for the wealthiest as well and theyll let them all expire rather than give in, because of their pledge to norquist. Yeah, cause grover matters more than the populace does....

Obama was on Letterman today: unscripted and talking without a teleprompter.

Riot as classy as ever.

Susan Rice doesn't go on Sunday shows with that lame excuse without Obama's prodding, Obama's asks Google to take down the video, the police suddenly show up at the filmmaker's door, open your eyes Riot.

Where is Obama's statement saying that I may not agree with the content of the film but I defend the filmmaker's right to free speech?

JMS you completely misread my post, a person collecting social security most likely worked their entire lives and paid into social security and a person who lost their job paid into unemployment and if they want to find a job are not mooching off of society. However lazy freeloaders who want freebies from the government without contributing are entitled, selfish losers who are clearly voting for their sugar daddy Obama.

Those LIRR injury faking scumbag scamming retirees now there are some solid Obama voters

With all the problems going on in this country and in the middle east, Obama has time to on Letterman to field softball questions while he doesn't even have the guts to face the liberal press in press briefings. Then the most divisive President in the history of this country has the gall to say the President has to work for all people which is not only completely contrary to his actions but is a deliberate misrepresentation of what Romney said. Oh yeah and then after Letterman, Obama was on his way to a Beyonce party. Good to see the phony is really feeling the pain of struggling Americans.

Letterman. There you have it. Celebrity President. Sad this world we live in. Do your job and stop campaigning for a day. Couldn't even observe his own pledge on 9/11.

Just curious how you know this to be true. Are you suggesting there are no lazy freeloaders voting for Romney? Here are the unemployment numbers for a few states from July.

MISSISSIPPI 9.1%
GEORGIA 9.3%
SOUTH CAROLINA 9.6%

Guess who a majority of the people from these states are voting for in November?
