My greatest fear is that Romney Because of all his Secrets in his Foreign Accounts/Foreign Interest could make him one of the Biggest Security Risk to the United States! If he will go to any length to hide his past Tax Returns/Foreign Comp. involments(even putting involvment in one company in his wife name), than who's to say he couldn't be black mailed with this information he wants to keep out of the Public Eyes an what will he pay in return to keep it out of the public eyes? Can a Foreign Country use Romney Secrets an in what ways? Could a Political Advasary who wants some thing passed in Congress that is bad for our Country Threaten the GOP party they will expose Romney Secrets to get things passed? Ya got to wonder with so little transparency an Romney refusal to be transparent in pass Tax Returns that what he is hiding could cause a Security Risk for us all in the Future as President.
Why would someone who is not in the top 1% be defending this sleasy, greasy slimewad Robmee? I mean he hates YOU just as much as the rest of American workers and the middle class. Oh and women of course. You can't make up the stupidity of anyone from the 99% supporting a Republicon.
This is silly. The Swiss account, like his offshore accounts, was a brief holding place for some of his money, which all came back to the U.S. These accounts were reported to the IRS at the time and fully taxed. Talk about a made-up issue!
time, he disclosed that account in previous years, it was closed in 2010 and it wasn't even his account. It was his wife's.
But it's been pretty clear for some time that you abhor facts which get in the way of your diatribes. It is actually a fact that you make most of your stuff up.
Boy the silence on yesterday's kickoff to the American Spring is deafening. It is like it never happened. The right wing corporate media completely sanitized the news like in 1984.
This must mean the powers that be are terribly frightened and this was a HUGE success. This is only the beginning, look for nationwide actions against Banking Against America (BofA) next Wednesday May 9.
Politics isn't business, and pushing a "businessman" like romney for president, will just give us another failed "businessman" like bush.
Helping retired people or badly maimed veterans with their health care needs isn't "efficient." If you were a businessperson, you'd do anything to keep those veterans out of your hospital -- especially if you had never been in the service like romney.
It's not the job of a businessman to feel sad about the consequences of cutbacks for your marriage, your employees, your grandma, or your community. But it should be the president's job. The inherently destructive nature of a dynamic market economy means that lots of people are suffering on any given day thanks to forces beyond their control.
While romney's strength is that he understands those forces better than most, his weakness is that he doesn't understand the suffering being born with a gold spoon stuck up his nether region, nor does he care like many of the top 1%.
Do your own research instead of swallowing the usual right-wing propaganda from fox and rush and then making silly attacks here, since romney's history at Bain Capital is public knowledge -- how some of his investments have killed jobs, and the disingenuous statistics his campaign is now using to inflate his record.
At Bain Capital, mitt romney was a cold, ruthless destroyer of jobs and families -- someone America does not need in the White House.
Indeed, the gingrich-tied documentary, 'King of Bain: When Mitt Romney Came to Town,' explicitly opens with an homage to free-market capitalism as the bringer of all good things. The idea is to build a distinction between the good kind of businessman, the one who launches and grows firms, creating new products and jobs and opportunities, and the evil, romney-style businessman, who makes millions by raiding and looting.
Coming up with an idea, raising funds, building a factory, and beginning to sell products is one, often admirable, way to get rich.
That's a noble American, job-creating business venture.
Undertaking a leveraged buyout of an existing firm, shutting down a bunch of its plants, reorganizing it, and then flipping the restructured entity to new owners is very different. One creates jobs, one kills them.
One is noble, the other squalid. One builds firms, the other loots them.
This only proves that willard romney is totally evil and should be thrown to the curb by the American people as quickly as possible!
agentzer007: "This is a good example of propaganda."
And despite your own denial, it's a good example of parroting the fox/rush propaganda trying to protect the corporate raider!
Here's just one example of many:
Special report: Romney's steel skeleton in the Bain closet
The young men in business suits, gingerly picking their way among the millwrights, machinists and pipefitters at Kansas City's Worldwide Grinding Systems steel mill.
Apparently they liked what they saw. Soon after, in October 1993, Bain Capital, co-founded by Mitt Romney, became majority shareholder in a steel mill that had been operating since 1888.
Less than a decade later, the mill was padlocked and some 750 people lost their jobs. Workers were denied the severance pay and health insurance they'd been promised, and their pension benefits were cut by as much as $400 a month.
What's more, a federal government insurance agency had to pony up $44 million to bail out the company's underfunded pension plan. Nevertheless, Bain profited on the deal, receiving $12 million on its $8 million initial investment and at least $4.5 million in consulting fees.
Of course the mittster was a corporate raider more interested in building up profits than the nation's economy, bankrupting many companies and sending those livable wage jobs overseas, but only after raiding their pension funds and other assets as a GREEDY vulture capitalist only interested in his own wealth!
Typical chickenhawk republican talking out of both sides of his mouth!
Thanks for proving my point, since obviously you can't tell the difference between the truth and your fox/rush propaganda, so everything that is posted that doesn't agree with your narrow conservitard ideology, is wrongly labeled by you as "propaganda."
Prove my statement above wrong, or just admit that willard romney was a GREEDY vulture capitalist, bankrupting companies after raiding their assets for his own personal wealth, and sending those livable wage jobs overseas.

agentzer007: "BTW, I don't watch Fox and wouldn't even be aware Rush was broadcasting a radio program"
LOL!
Funny how the conservitard republicans never miss a chance to pat themselves on the back in the most arrogant posts, and it seems none of them watch the fox political network or listen to rush according to them, but parrot the same propaganda day in and day out.
Am I the only one to notice that many who post are only interested in disruption and maintaining the power status quo, not actually interested in gleaning useful information. We all know that some of the wealthiest contractors thrive on chaos. Wealth does not always connote competence.
The #2 Axiom of American politics is: "if you can't convince with facts, dazzle with bull crap." And, an old adage is: "arguing politics is like wrestling with pigs, you both get dirty and the pigs enjoy it."
Beware voters, the spin doctors are afoot ... it's an election year don't you know ...

Vulture capitalism is a proven fact by corporate raider mitt romney!
He got wealthy at the expense of American jobs!
