MEET THE REAL MITT ROMNEY

ACTUALLY......As everyone knows the 47% issue (where he calls 47% of Americans free-loaders and lazy) is still very much in the news.  Romney has tried to back-track on that comment by saying, "Of course, I want to help all Americans have a bright and prosperous future".  He went on to say his comment wasn't elegantly stated and that he spoke off the cuff.  Let's talk about "elegant"......did he mean the disgusting attack on hard working Americans, the elderly, veterans, the not-so-well off Americans who are depending on their Social Security. Are they free-loading off the taxpayers?  We can't leave out the Bush tax cuts, where the rich are getting a handout by getting tax breaks and hand outs?  Or Tax Evaders like Mitt Romney, and his wealthy cronies, who pay little or no taxes because their accountants have little tricks that eliminate that? Are all these individuals not free-loaders who expect the 47% to pay their share of taxes?  It's hard to tell who the free-loaders are, isn't it?

Mitt Romney has to deal with his own greed and dishonesty with hard working families.  What is probably worse that anything he previously said, is he makes no apology for his statement. But instead is flipping around like crazy trying to change his image. 

So far he has not given us the details of the economic reform he keeps talking about.  He evades questions regarding the entitlements he is claiming he'll cut in his budget, and if he has plans for actually creating jobs he sure hasn't laid that out yet. Romney's new image he's created is one of a secret, deceptive robot without decency or details. This is the man that lied 27 times in 38 minutes during the October 4 debate.

Bain Capital is outsourcing 170 jobs, in a company they own called Sensata.  Bain is sending the company to China, and U.S. workers were actually forced to train their new Chinese workers, who are taking their jobs.  Mitt Romney gets a check for that!!  These families are on unemployment benefits, thanks to Bain Capital.   Romney refused to meet with the workers from Sensata.  They went to the RNC Convention to speak with Romney - he refused again . 

These are the facts, Romney continues to receive profits from Bain Capital, a company that he created that outsources good American workers jobs.  He didn't earn his wealth honestly, he found a way to sell off  U.S. companies and offshore American jobs.  Mitt Romney's egotistical greed and dishonesty will continue to do untold damage to the American people if he is elected.


GUESS WHAT?  THIS DEVIOUS MAN WANTS AMERICA TO VOTE FOR HIM

HERE WE GO AGAIN WITH TAX CUTS

ACTUALLY.......Senator Jon Kyl from Arizona has said "that the president’s usage of the phrase “middle class” is “misguided and wrong and even dangerous.”  He called for an end to what he referred to as rhetoric about "classes".  Furthermore he had the audacity to bombard President Obama about “incessantly” talking about class, “particularly the middle-class”.  The Arizona sun has really gotten to that man.

President Obama is trying to protect the middle-class, which by the way is more than just an income bracket.  He is, of course, comparing the American people who are financially not as well off as the wealthy executive's of large corporations or (pardon the expression) private equity owners.  Senator Kyl goes on to say that America doesn’t have “a true class-based society,” since we don’t have an “ingrained class system” or “noble bloodlines.” I think that's a bunch of crap! And, how does he know that someone in the middle-class doesn't have "noble bloodlines"?

What the President wants for our 'middle-class' is a secure job, a safe and stable home, access to affordable health care, retirement security, time off for vacation.  He also wants to have opportunities for families to save for the future and the ability to provide a good education, including a college education, for the children. How else are we to build a strong nation that our children and grand children can be proud of?

President Obama has said repeatedly that his greatest goal is to build our economy from the bottom up, giving the opportunity for less fortunate people that struggle from day to day, to enter the middle-class and enjoy a better standard of living.  We have become a nation so polarized that there is the very wealthy ....... and then everyone else.  Does that sound fair and reasonable?  President Obama has recently called on Congress to extend tax cuts for families earning less than $250,000 a year while allowing taxes to raise for households making more.

Romney's plan will  raise taxes on the bottom 95% of the people.  The average middle-class family with children will see a tax increase of more than $2,000.00.  For everyone making less than $200,000, the tax increase averages more than $500.00 per person.  His plan includes a large tax cut for only the wealthiest 5% of Americans.  He's proposing a new $247,000 tax cut for the wealthiest 0.1% - on top of the Bush tax cuts, and another $87,000 tax cut for every millionaire - on top of the Bush tax cuts.  I don't know about you, but this just boggles my mind.  It's hard to understand and even harder to live with.

Oh! And by the way, what the hell is an "ingrained class system".  For crying out loud Senator, GET REAL!!  What planet are you from anyway?
