A week later Romney is still a douchebag

My guess Mittens he won because he didn't insult half the country and didn't come across as a prick to normal middle class people.

Mitt: Obama won because of 'gifts'

http://www.politico.com/news/stories...#ixzz2CIgh0NOo

Mitt Romney told donors Wednesday he blamed last week’s loss to President Barack Obama in part to “gifts” the Obama administration gave to key voter blocs, including African Americans, Hispanics and young women, according to media reports.

“The president’s campaign focused on giving targeted groups a big gift — so he made a big effort on small things. Those small things, by the way, add up to trillions of dollars,” Romney said on a conference call with donors, the Los Angeles Times first reported.

The “gifts,” according to Romney, included forgiving college loan interest, free contraceptive coverage and the part of Obamacare that allows people 26 and younger to be covered under their parents’ health care plans.

“You can imagine for somebody making $25,000 or $30,000 or $35,000 a year, being told you’re now going to get free healthcare, particularly if you don’t have it, getting free healthcare worth, what, $10,000 per family, in perpetuity. I mean, this is huge,” Romney said, the New York Times reported.

“Likewise with Hispanic voters, free healthcare was a big plus,” Romney added. “But in addition with regards to Hispanic voters, the amnesty for children of illegals, the so-called Dream Act kids, was a huge plus for that voting group.”

You're a good dude dirk, always have been. Wish you could have got some help before you succumbed to liberalitis but you're a respectable poster here in spite of that.

Good government?

Anyone with half a brain knows Obama is the empty suit, unless they're an Obama apologist.
Obama bailed out the so-called wealthy 1% because that includes private bankers that made bad bets and he demanded the taxpayer get them out from under those bad bets. The big lie was that if the banks fail we all fail. It succeeded. Now some of people who paid to bail those bankers out lost their homes because they were out of work, who worked all their lives for their homes. They can't pay their property tax anymore so they have their home taken away. That is not good govt either.

Meanwhile a trillion dollars was lost in world's equity markets. That's a fact. The answer is more austerity with more taxes. That's not good govt either.

And the same wars continue, when plenty in the military want to come home.

These deceivers that keep becoming our presidents—the Bushes, the Clintons... the Obamas. The whole nation is being militarized along with corporatist economics. It's fascism. Nothing changes.

I'm really starting to like Bobby Jindal, i loved his statements on this matter, a guy like him is who the repubs need to elevate and get behind if they want to stop shrinking and start growing.

Jindal may yet be presidential quality.

Too bad he's part of the warparty though. Not a winner outside the R party. He'd have to change on that.

He has four years to get ready.

Presidential nominee quality, maybe. He's pretty religiously extreme (see, e.g., exorcism).

You are aware that the Catholic Church performs exorcisms right? And they support Obamacare even.
Anyhow, he witnessed one in college and the context of what he said has been twisted by the anti-religionists.

What is extreme to one is not to another. Remember your views were once considered very extreme in this country too. This comes across as religious bigotry when we can find quirky things in every religion. I seriously doubt he'd pass legislation on exorcism.

He's right........50million people on food stamps and don't pay taxes.

You're getting something for free.......but it's not a gift?
