3) Everyone will have great high paying jobs due extension of Bush tax cuts and trickle down economics
4) The great business man that Romney is - he will have UE rate at an all time low because he knows how to create jobs- even though when he was Governor his state was near the bottom in job creation but if he is over 50 states somehow he will bring UE to historic lows.

It really tickles me that people like WW. Joe Bloe and IIFFOFRDB really think their lives are going to be drastically changed LMFAo

I don't know about all that. What I do know is, if Romney is elected we won't have a muslim president trying to pose as an American, and thats at least a positive step in the right direction.

If Mitt Romney became President and God forbid such a nightmare being inflicted on this country, he would take the only approach he knows.

He would look at the USA as a business and after looking at the balance sheet, decide to sell off those states that are not performing as well as they should.

. . . He would probably sell California to Mexico! Since California is usually a blue state, he would probably even take an extra measure of satisfaction in that sale too!

Repealing Glass-Stegall was a mistake in my judgement. I heard President Clinton speak at a fundraiser earlier this year where he defended the repeal and faulted Bush for cutting back on post repeal regulation, which is true enough, so far as it goes. But if you ave to rely on good regulation, then it's just better to outlaw it as good regulation is never guaranteed.

"Heard"??? Why don't you cite a single instance of "post regulation repeal" that was more devastating than repealing Glass-Stegall.

Proof that Ron White is correct.

Actually Fast Gunn, America is a business; but we need someone a whole lot smarter than Romney to run it. And with the GOP, the trickle down illusion will only result in more wealth at the top. Then we will have to manufacture another war.

[Fast Gunn]

I have to disagree with you on this point. America is not a business, but I do agree with you about Romney's limitations.

American is a country.

Business has only one measure of success and that is making money. Business tends to be ruthless and cut-throat, but a country needs compassion.

A successful country needs to operate on a larger vision than a business.

. . . A successful country needs to foster an environment where business can prosper, but it goes beyond that. It must nourish its people, make them proud to be citizens and help them to be productive and return the favor. That is the cycle that keeps a country growing.

CANDYASSCOUNTRY....FUCK YOU

[JD Barleycorn]

Timpage, I didn't know you were that dense. Romney won't save the country. We will save the country when the government is taken off our backs and THAT is what Romney will do. This country is not made great by government it is made great by individuals.

[JD Barleycorn]

Here is a question for wellendowed. You say that governor Romney had the lowest rate of lowering unemployment (which is a negative), tell me what the unemployment rate of Massachusettes was when Romney was governor? For the record unemployment in January of 2003 was 5.6% and it was 4.6% when he left office in January of 2007. The average unemployment rate was 5.7% during Romney's four years. That sound pretty fucking good don't you think WE? You can't tell the truth so you spread damned lies. Go home, fuck your wife, and then stick your head in a toliet until you can tell the truth.

Are those numbers you cite just for Mass?

What were Romney's UE numbers versus the national UE?

As in finance, if you can't beat the general market, you ain't shit.

Here are some facts when Romney was Gov:


Manufacturing payroll employment throughout the nation declined by nearly 1.1 million or 7% between 2002 and 2006, but in Massachusetts it declined by more than 14%, the third-worst record in the country.
—Andrew Sum and Joseph McLaughlin, Center for Labor Market Studies at Northeastern University
Boston Globe, 7/29/07
Even as his state failed to keep up, Governor Romney slashed funding for the Massachusetts Manufacturing Extension Partnership [MassMEP], a program that “helped hundreds of small manufacturers compete, survive, and save thousands of jobs.”

BOSTON GLOBE, 11/23/2006

In Romney’s first two years, wages fell by 5%—the steepest in the nation. While the median income nationwide was on the rise, it was dropping in Massachusetts.

BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS AVERAGE ANNUAL PAY, BLS.GOV

When Mitt Romney took office, unemployment in Massachusetts was below the national average—but economic growth trailed the rest of the country every year he was governor, and job growth failed to keep up with population growth, even as the reverse was true in the rest of the country. When he left office, Massachusetts’ unemployment rate was higher than the national average for the first time since 1995.

BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS, ANNUAL AVERAGE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE, ACCESSED 9/16/11

ROMNEY:
Mitt Romney claims the unemployment rate in Massachusetts fell during his tenure as governor, and that he created 40,000 jobs in his last year in office.
THE REALITY:
As the nation’s economy grew and the median income rose, under Romney, Massachusetts plummeted from 36th to 47th out of 50 states in job creation, and the median income declined.

Can you point out how the Republican party is racist, or do you just like to sling mud?

Here's a photo of the crowd at the NAACP convention in Houston. This is the crowd that booed Romney. I don't see many white people. Does that make them racist?
