I think he was just saying what the crowd wanted to hear. The guy has really lost it. He is a psycho to the highest order.

The left has done a really good job of painting Romney as greedy and insensitive. He is not. You don't hear much about his countless hours of selfless service because he is very modest about it. He is a totally different person than you think he is.



Everything you said about him in your question is taken out of context.



He was right about detroit going bankrupt. Bankruptcy is not the same as going out of business. It provides a legal way to stop the financial bleeding while a company can get it's act together. Romney stated that he would not let it fail but that it would make the company stronger if it went through the bankruptcy process.



On the other hand, Obama's philosophy is to just throw money at a problem until it goes away. This tends to create dependancy instead of self reliance.

He wasn't laughing at them. Stop demonizing the poor man. It won't be the end of the world if Romney gets elected. He's done more to help the poor than Obama ever did.

None of the above. Here is my question for you: is taking things out of context a liberal thing, a stupidity thing, or a lazy thing?



You know, it does no good to take words out of context. Each of those sayings, if you truly looked at what Romney meant and at the entire quote in context, actually make sense. When you ONLY provide those sayings and nothing else then of course it looks bad. That would be like as if Obama said this: "A lot of opponents like to make it look like I hate the poor and middle classes, but that is not true" and I removed "a lot of opponents like to make it look like" and "but that is not true" so that what is left over is "I hate the poor and middle classes". Both sides should just stop taking things out of context. Certainly you agree that the "You didn't build that" quote is taken out of context. It seems quite obvious, when one looks at the whole saying, that Obama was referring to the roads, bridges, etc and not bussinesses. That case is just like the above cases you provided. Why don't you use your brain and actually read the entire exerpt for each of those quotes and figure out what Romney is actually saying? Just too lazy? Or are you just not smart enough?

You see, you probably totally agree that those words are out of context for Obama, since you like him, but just because you don't like Romney, you won't even consider the possibility that those phrases were taken out of context for him. Typical liberal, I suppose.

I am a poor person in the 47% that had my mind made up. Are you laughing at me because I am poor? I do not see anyone or any religion laughing at me. Thanks for your input of your opinion of me. I had my mind made up to vote Romney, I am one of the 47%.

Mitt Romney obviously! He want to eliminate all the non billionaires of the world -__-

All those false or out-of-context quotes will only fool other idiot Democrat voters, child.



You should feel sad and ashamed that you're left with nothing but weak lies as your denunciation of Romney, as opposed to the significant incompetence and failures of Obama's first and last term.

Mitt isn't very friendly, is he?

He seems too selfish and self centered to be a good president.

It is a conservative thing.
