It's not Romney's job to care about 47% of Americans
"There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what," Romney is shown saying. "All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to healthcare, to food, to housing, to you name it."
The GOP presidential nominee goes on to say his "job is is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives."

This guy's elitist bullshit ain't gonna carry him far, especially when most years he probably pays little to no income tax himself.
This election will be a blowout.

Romney is appealing to the other 53 percent who on the net pay taxes. He's probably as sincere as Obama saying he was going to bring home the Troops from overseas, close Gitmo and a bunch of other shit he promised to do while he was pissing away Trillions of bucks on "Stimulus" and making his Nobel Peace Prize into another token achievement by meddling in Libya, Yemen and Pakistan while getting more kids killed in Afghanistan.Thud wrote:"There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what," Romney is shown saying.

Fortunately for Obama some of the 53 percent who pay taxes are covertly racist Progressive Whites, who see a polite and well groomed nigger instead of a man and thus don't hold Obama to a Presidential standard. They'll vote for Obama because they don't consider him a real human being and thus don't hold him to account for the many failures he'd had in foreign policy and his complete inability to get people to work again. They'll give him a pass the way that his College Professors, Political Benefactors in Chicago and Springfield and many voters do because Obama is smart enough to know that under the skin of many otherwise reasonable Progressives is a Klansman who lacks the balls to deal with their stupid racist thoughts and instead projects onto the world around them. The man knows how to place the Victim/Race card to perfection.
Could be worse, Thud. Could be Ron Paul running this Fall. Then we'd have a real choice this year, instead of a choosing between two different colored Corporate Whores.

Romney is completely wrong. That number is 43%.

I remember an article at the Atlantic that surmised that half the Tea Party doesn't pay income tax (owing to the average age, presumably - room temp IQs have never stopped anyone from making a buck).
Good to know they'll be voting against their economic interests, for a guy who fucking hates them.

The 47% that Mittens is disparaging are primarily SS recipients and working class families below the poverty line. The payroll tax nets out to around 14%, which is more than Mittens paid himself, at least for the two year of returns he released.
The dope already has 66% of the elderly SS vote(just look at Andy), yet he feels a need to insult them nonetheless.
JR you should really give Matthew 19:24 a re-read. I think you may have skipped it on your speed reading of the new testament.
I'm just glad that Mittens showed his true colors. I guess Mormons really aren't Christians.

"Families in poverty" was a fiction created by the Democrats to justify the EIC. Perversely the EIC has created a disincentive to work harder/smarter. Go "too far" and you get dinged for taxes. The EIC - another subsidy for Wal-Mart, along with Food Stamps and Medicaid. Right?
More than General Electric has paid in income taxes over the last few years. Perhaps more than Berkshire Hathaway, at least until they settle their back taxes with the IRS. Being a friend to Obama is another way to dodge those tax bills. No, not hiding your returns, just forking over the money to the Man.cleaner464 wrote:The payroll tax nets out to around 14%, which is more than Mittens paid himself, at least for the two year of returns he released.
I myself don't care too much about Mitten's tax returns. The whole "issue" is a dodge from Obama's shitty track record on employment.
I'm fair minded - Obama opens his college transcripts (assuming that they're not in the name of Barry Seotoro) and Mittens would feel pretty obligated to show his hand too. Yeah, Joe, there are rumors floating around that Mr. Obama didn't use his current name to attend school. All the better to get "Foreign Student" subsidies. Not that Obama is "foreign born" just that he fraudulently claimed to be foreign born so he could get free college money.
There's a good reason that Mittens feels comfortable holding back on his income tax returns. He knows that his opponent has things to hide too.

Re: It's not Romney's job to care about 47% of Americans
To answer my own question, it appears that people are indeed saying that Obama's academic records should be released. Rumor A holds that he was actually a poor student - lots of blacks without connections end up editor of the Harvard Law Review and they pass out magna cum laude distinction like cocaine at a Wall Street holiday party. Rumor B says that he is hiding something sinister in his undergraduate thesis. Rumor C says that he received aid as a foreign student.Terry B. wrote:I dislike both men quite a lot but the following is as stupid a thing as I have heard.

Some left-wing radical addresses the following here: http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/oreilly/t ... dent-obama
Item: The president has not released his academic transcripts.
True. His records from Occidental College, Columbia University and Harvard Law School have not been made public, and the president could do that if he wanted to.
Item: His thesis from Columbia has not been made public.
False. He didn't do a thesis. You may remember that Hillary Clinton kept her Wellesley thesis private until somebody outed the paper on radical Saul Alinsky.
Item: Barack Obama received foreign student aid while in college.
False. Somebody just made that up.

One bit of evidence, Terry, that Barry rode the "foreign student" gravy train was a book where he claimed to be "born in Kenya"
http://www.westernjournalism.com/obama- ... -in-kenya/
I think he was probably born in the US. Who wants to read a book by an American born black about Africa? Much more interesting to claim "African ancestry" and then talk about your family's legends. Marketing gimmick.
If he'd lie to sell a book how hard would it be to fill in the Financial Aid forms falsely? Nobody checks that shit if you're a minority. I've personally seen lilly white "hispanics" claim "challenge grant" money while in college.
Is it proof? The proof would be to see Mr. Obama's college transcripts.
Romney ought to insist upon a "Quid pro Quo". He shows his if Obama shows his. If either man is honest what do they have to hide?

Maybe Obama got the same grades as Franklyn Roosevelt - "Gentleman's Cs". That wouldn't have looked good in 2008 when all Obama had to run on was his Harvard Law School record. We didn't hear about Obama's "Voting Present" record in Springfield and in DC but about how he "edited the Harvard Law Review".Terry B. wrote:To answer my own question, it appears that people are indeed saying that Obama's academic records should be released.

Imagine the Public being told, "He got Cs but still got appointed to head the Harvard Law Review". The public would have said, "Affirmative Action Nigger" and not voted for him.
Maybe Obama made great grades and earned his Harvard Law Review post, not as Barrack Obama but as Barry Seotoro?
Why else hide his transcripts? Obama ran on his college career in 2008.
The whole "Romney is hiding his tax returns" issue raises Obama's concealment of his private records. If Obama wants privacy doesn't Romney deserve it too?
If Obama wants "complete disclosure" he should set the tone. Get 'em out there. Or not.
Fair is fair.

http://www.factcheck.org/2012/07/obamas-sealed-records/ the guy was an IL state senator for 7 years, U.S. senator for 3 years. ten years of public life before becoming president and his academic records are only just now becoming important? there is FERPA, to consider. anyone who could demonstrate legal standing could subpoena for his educational records. that hasn't happened. why not? maybe because making internet memes is easier and you get to make up your own facts.

There are many legitimate reasons to criticize him and many areas of the country that could be improved. However, all the GOP is able to string together is "birther", "socialist" and "SECRET ACADEMIC RECORDS". I realized that you had to pretend that you were batshit insane to get the GOP nomination though I really thought that for the general election the act would be over and serious issues would be discussed.

Not sure why every discussion about Romney has to include a deflection regarding the President of the United States?
