A collegiate answer inspires whoops from the dumbed-down press.
They're like children.

Romney’s retort should have been, Mr. President, your wealth is far in excess of the audience members this evening. Why don’t you just knock off the class warfare nonsense and answer the question. You did realize you’d be asked some questions you’d have to answer tonight didn’t you?

Which is ridiculous considering how much money the Hollywood Left earns with their biggest stars. For example, someone like Tom Hanks could easily make between US$12 to US$19 million for a single movie, a level of income only the CEO's of the biggest Fortune 500 companies can match or exceed.

Just wait until the “reporters” find out their 401Ks will be taken over by Bath-House Barry IF he/she’s re-selected.

What did Obama exactly say? It seemed that he was flustered and said that his portfolio is smaller than Romney's and thus it would take longer to read.
To: Free ThinkerNY
Yet they adore Soros and every Hollywood 1%er.

Or maybe it should have read: President has no idea about the details of his own pension and what he’s invested in.

Is poverty the new noble?There is no substance in the subject. It is entirely a matter of jealousy about what someone else has. If wealth of any kind is now to be considered a negative thing then everyone can get used to higher and higher unemployment, fewer commodities, higher prices and less of every comfort and only bare necessities. Save your corn cobs!

And Romney could have responded, “Yes it is, and I BUILT ALL OF IT. I am proud of that, and I know how to build wealth and economic success.”

“Poverty is noble” is a warped reading of a Christian concept that urges men never to allow wealth to become their god.

I never understand why we’re supposed to pretend Obama isn’t a millionaire. Because he’s a Dem and their for the little guy? Pishaw. Because he’s black and not an athelete/rapper and so can’t possibly have fat stacks? Maybe. Because he earned it and Romney’s a rich kid turned roberbaron? Nobody but nobody would’ve bought Obama’s books hadn’t the Chicago Machine picked him out of the deck of angry young community organizers.
But I’m getting away from the point. Obama’s rich, too, is the point.
To: Jim from C-Town
Obama did get rich off his books first, so it was originally from the private sector. Though nobody would’ve heard of him if he hadn’t been a politician and for whatever reason a handpicked rising star. So it’s kind of a push.
