Romney: 47% of Americans are victims

I guess this maybe the kill shot for his campaign. I know some of you believe you this and won't find a problem with what he said but as a person running for POTUS you probably shouldn't write off 1/2 the country especially in a disparaging way.

Quote:
A hidden camera video of Mitt Romney at a fundraiser shows him talking disparagingly of people who will vote for President Obama.

Said Romney: "There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. 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 health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That that's an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what...These are people who pay no income tax."

He adds: "My job is is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives."

It took a half a day for those Obama quotes to hit the echo chamber. The right-wing false equivalence machine is losing their edge.

If anything, that's worse than being in favor of legislative redistribution through the tax code or through welfare programs/corporate subsidies, IMO.

Yall are seriously retarded. Results will win this election and Obama hasn't done shit. If this was Obama's first election then this would actually matter, but who gives a shit when we've seen the shitstorm with this fool at the helm of our country. Especially with foreign policy. WTF have we heard from this joker in light of other ME countries threatening our embassies? Americans might as well not fly across the pond because Joker Obama won't do shit to protect them or make sure they aren't being targeted.

Let's just say that I'm glad I never went into politics.
Obviously, the tax system as it is creates "redistribution of wealth," but government - no matter how well intentioned - is a terrible alternative to the capitalist system in terms of granting "shots."

That's what I (possibly, mistakenly) assumed he was referring.

Some of you people are ****ing ridiculous. There is NOTHING in his remarks that he hasn't pretty much said already. This is all about it being a "hidden" video and the false idea that this is some super secret info that has leaked.

What a ****ing joke our media has become.

I don't think Obama believes this. He thinks talking to People magazine and David Letterman wins elections.

As I have already posted, he said nothing that was out of line. This is nothing more than the Ministry of Truth creating news~

Do you mean the DOJ? Have they called MediaMatters and given them today's talking points yet? Media collusion with this administration has gotten to the point of lunacy. Anyone who doesn't have a problem with it is either a fool or a bastard.
