Romney: If You Want Free Stuff, Vote for Obama By Noah Glyn March 20, 2012 2:07 P.M.

As Kathryn noted, Romney had an effective response to a woman who told him, “You’re all for like ‘Yay freedom and all this stuff and yay pursuit of happiness.’ You know what would make me happy? Free birth control.”

His statement is correct.

The kid is a complete fool/tool.

Romney should have added, when Obama is done giving out free stuff, your generation will be in debt up to your eyeballs and America is finished.

I think he should have thought that out a bit.

Obama is going to run his campaign based on giving stuff for free, from birth control to mortgage relief and student loan bailouts to food and free medical care and who knows what all else.

They will paint Romney as a guy who not only won’t give you stuff, he’ll take stuff away, the greedy rich white guy.

It will be a vastly expanded version of the old “scare the old” routine where the Republicans want to take soshakurity away from old people.

And now Mitt endorsed that! If you want the free stuff, you all know what to do!

“They will paint Romney as a guy who not only won’t give you stuff, he’ll take stuff away, the greedy rich white guy.”

Hillary 2007: “We’re going to take things away from you for the Common Good!”

Not a bad answer. I would have preferred something like “There is no such thing as free stuff. Only stuff that is stolen from other people..the government forcibly takes $1 from person A, and gives person B $0.50 worth of stuff..”

lol Yes! But when a prog says it, they usually mean rich people, and I think Hillary was speaking from the “take from the greedy people who have too much”, not take it away from everybody. The progs certainly understood what she meant.

Romney, otoh, will take away WIC, birth control, abortion, health care, food assistance, all from poor people because rich people become rich on the backs of the poor, to follow the storyboard.

He should have said, vote for me, you’ll have a job, then you could afford birth control.

The child who made that “I want free birth control” statement is an idiot. With a capital I.

Are they teaching that Free Stuff = Freedom in schools these days?

Where has THIS Mitt been hiding? If Romney talked and acted like this all the time (and followed through), I might just be willing to support the guy for nominee, LOL.

What a nasty piece of work that girl who asked the question was, btw. I’m am so freaking tired of the “Gimme, gimme, gimme!” mentality.

My first reaction in hearing her ask the question; she was planted in the audience by Romney's people.

Too easy of a setup for Romney to answer.

Probably. They sure won’t teach the truth: Free Stuff = Slavery.

Not interested in what the JackAss, Progressive Liberal, Issue Shape-Shifter Mitt Romney has to say.

He will lose in landslide proportions against Obama if he is the nominee.
