Well…I am quite surprised…no, not really, about a new tape that came out today about ole Mitt where he was talking to some of his rich buddies on the reasons why he lost the election…you know what the reason really was, in ole Mitt’s mind anyway? It was the “gifts” he gave to minorities, women, and the young….yep, ole Mitt still believes what he said in the “47%” tape…and that is that people will vote for the president because they get “things” from him. Like the young being able to stay on their parents insurance…like women being able to control their own bodies, and minorities being respected for the human beings they are; not pawns to be used in political campaigns to be ignored once the election is over. What a piece of crap ole Mitt is…I hope that Obama ignores this idiot and the cynical, stupid ideas he espouses…he has no place at the table in modern America…geez…

Mitt’s tax problem…
Well…Just a short one on the whole “47% of the people don’t pay taxes” flap that came from the callous comment that Romney made…it made me think of another comment that ole Mitt made a few months back when he was pressed on the fact that he only pays 14% in income taxes and his response was that he was paying everything that the tax code requires and not a penny more. The sad thing is that he then makes the 47% comment when those people that don’t pay federal income taxes are doing exactly the same thing…they are following the tax code that allows them to not pay these federal taxes. So, what is perfectly okay for a rich guy like ole Mitt is wrong when the middle or lower class does it? Just another example where Mitt is amoral. saying anything to appeal to whoever he is talking to with no consistency or core…geez…
Deadbeats of a different sort…
Well…this little nugget just popped into my head and I thought I’d share it….this goes back to ole Mitt’s statement that “corporations are people, too, my friend” on the stump and highlights an unintended dig that Mitt had for those same corporations. When you look at the numbers, you’ll find that many, many corporations like GE did not pay any income taxes in the past few years….so does that make them part of the 47% that ole Mitt so callously derides? To me, this just points out the incoherence and ignorance that is the core of the repub candidate…I thought I’d seen the stupidist (I know that’s not a real word) candidate for president when I saw ole GW…but Mitt is in a class of his own and makes even Rick Perry look like a genius….bring on the debates…geez…
Have to take on this latest “mitticism”…
Well…ole Mitt has done it again…reveling what he truly thinks about the American people who are not rich, who are not part of the privileged few like him who have been given everything and think they earned it. The latest from this idiot comes from a fundraiser earlier in the year where he shows his disdain for almost half of the people of this country who, by his measure, are the “takers” who pay no income tax and will never vote for him…and he shows that he would not give a damn about them if he is elected. First, let’s get this straight…even those who do not pay income taxes, and this is mostly a result of the Bush tax cuts, pay payroll and other taxes that average almost 16% of their income and they can’t use any loopholes to reduce this tax burden…which is more as a percentage than ole Mitt pays in income taxes…and, the second thing is that, in the 47% that don’t pay income taxes, you have all retirees on social security and the unemployed, but you also have the working poor whose wages have been in real decline due to repub policies that have rewarded companies for offshoring jobs….and now you have Mitt blaming these folks for the policies that he still champions….why any working person would ever vote for this idiot, I just can’t fathom…geez…
