Yep, this is the guy who we're supposed to nominate because he's so wonderful in articulating economic issues...

ROMNEY: "Well, of course it’s getting better."

McCain: "Obama is a decent person and you don't need to be scared of him being President".

BIRDS OF A ****** ******* FEATHER.

Creative Editing Sucks

Full quote:

Mitt Romney on Laura Ingraham’s radio program: “Of course it’s getting better. The economy always gets better after the recession. There’s always a recovery. There’s never been a time anywhere in the world where an economy has never recovered. The question is how is recovered by virtue of something the president has done or has he delayed the recovery and made it more painful? And the latter, of course, is the truth.”

“The president’s policies have made the recession deeper and have made the recovery more tepid and more difficult on the American people. This is the worst recovery that we have seen from a recession since Hoover. And President Obama wants to take credit for things getting better, he’s in fact made things worse. He’s made this recovery take much longer, but, will our economy get better someday? Of course it will.”

When Laura Ingraham asks Romney if it is hard argument to make that ‘Obama is making the economy better, but vote for me,’ Romney says ‘Do you have a better one Laura?’

On just what issues is Romney planning to run on against Obama? He’s just taken the economy off the table.

here is proof of the U.S. economic decline .

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2832195/posts

China was backward, a few decades ago, living like they did 1000 years ago. Now they make most of things we use including smart phones , computers and have all the technology,rising middle class etc. China did it by stealing the U.S. technology and stealing the U.S. market. Why do we keep allowing this? We could still turn the tables on China and so grow like they did. We have to stop what they are doing to us, and the only way is to restrict things coming in from china.let’s say the U.S. bans import of cell phones. You know then companies will have to build factories here ( like Japan did for Toyota etc) .And that will bring jobs, technology , manufacturing ability back to the U.S.. China is destroying the U.S.

here is proof of the U.S. decline .

U.S. lost at least 15 million jobs in the last 10 years due to China.We have no jobs just welfare , and debt.

I’m half-expecting to see Ace and Mitt go on tour telling us how well Hussein is doing and how much he really cares about each and every one of us.

Only LOSERS praise Hussein and claim to be Republican.

You’d think they would have learned from Ace and Crist.

FUBO and ALL your mindless fans!

Can Romney be this clueless that he doesn’t understand the small drop in unemployment is due to those who have given up looking no longer being counted in the Administration’s official figures.

Job creation during the Obama recession hasn’t even kept pace with population growth. If Romeny doesn’t understand the basic accounting concepts involved in calculating unemployment that tells me he was probably a “Political hire” for his private sector jobs.

Wow.

Even with the full context of the interview, what Romney said was pretty stupid.

As a business leader, he should be able to articulate what it means to have a “dead cat bounce.” His expertise is supposed to be in business and finance.

This former head of a multimillion dollar investment company can't explain something that Freeper LittleHarbour was able to do easily (or, for that matter, most regular readers of the Wall Street Journal)?

But maybe Romney learned something about how Americans reacted to his prior animal abuse and was afraid to use the term “dead cat bounce” because it might offend someone. /sarc

106 posted on Monday, January 23, 2012 8:32:58 PM by RC one: “I believe Obama’s chances of reelection are inversely proportional to the price of a gallon of gas in the months leading up to election day.”

There's a lot of truth in that.

George Bush couldn't convince the Saudis to help lower the price of gas until it was too late. I wonder if Obama can.

115 posted on Tuesday, January 24, 2012 12:17:51 AM by NoRedTape: “Who is under the rock behind the rock that is pushing for Mittens to somehow even be in the polls? Wow.....there are some severely misguided people in this voting public. So very sad. I truly hope they will wake-up soon.......”

I think three things are at work.

First, there are sincere conservatives who oppose Obama and think Romney is the best choice to beat him or that he's the inevitable Republican winner so they might as well support him. They're wrong, and with the the South Carolina vote showing that, a lot of Romney's support will implode. The sooner those voters leave Romney and get behind some other candidate, the better.

Second, there are Republican establishment people who are backing Romney because he's part of the establishment and has been for decades. I understand why people do those things, but it's not me. I was born into the same political culture, but I burned my bridges decades ago with the moderate wing of the GOP and I have little use for people who are fueled by a “country club elite” mentality of what it means to be a Republican.

Third, let's not minimize the power of “operation chaos” methods. The Democrats don't have a race this year. That means lots of liberal-leaning independents are voting in the Republican races. Even assuming they're not doing so for malicious motives, they're voting for the candidate most like themselves, and this year that means Romney.

Mitt Romney is just a redux of Republican weak sister, John McCain, who in the 2008 campaign told us all what a good man Barack Hussein “Muslim Brotherhood Adoree” was and still in his humble opinion!!! romney is as weak as a candidate for POTUS can come!!! He will be hugging and kissing “traitor” Obama from head to toe!!!!

By the way, Freepers, how about starting a campaign today to boycott the Obama SOTU farce address by America hater and America, would be destroyer, POTUS Obama this evening. We are not watching it this evening, and are hoping millions of Americans will not tune in either!!!
