The comments by the libs on this story are something else!
That goes to show beyond any shadow of doubt, that Romney truly cares about people. I can’t think of any other CEO who would shut down shop to look for a missing child of an employee.
Amazing story. And then we have Eva Longoria: “I have no idea why any woman/minority can vote for Romney. You have to be stupid to vote for such a racist/misogynistic tw*t.”
One man cuts off his phones and sends his staff to help rescue a person in danger.
One man cuts off his phones and and takes his staff to two events to raise funds for his re-election. Four people die.
Two men. One vote.
To be fair, Obama also has a record with respect to protecting the lives of children. Just look into his votes on saving babies who are born alive during an attempted abortion. Quite a few liberals would prefer Obama’s stance over Romney’s when it comes to the importance of children.
Yeah, lets now vote for the anti-American, Islamist, Communist, anti-capitalist, LGBT authoritarian, ‘don’t punish her with a baby,’ and Kenyan and Indonesian citizen, and all around bad guy Obama.
N00b this tale has been troteed out repeatedly all through the 2007-08 season and serveral times already...
The girl had run away from home to a Rave in NY...
She was high on drugs and came back on her own accord...
it was the embarrassment for the Gayu family having a druggie delinquent daughter expose4 their squeeky clean immage as not such that inspire the Gays to leave their company in Boston and go and lok for their daughter three DAYS AFTER SHE HAD NOt COME HOME...
tHEY WERENT IN A hurry to find her untill it was obvious to others she was gone...
The other guys just like Gay and Willard were Mormons...
There has been a suggestion that it would not have played well for them next time they went for their temple recommend interview if they had refused to go because both Gay and Willard were ;leaders in the Mormon religion and had a lot of pull...
Willard never did “save” the girls life nor did he find her...
He used his own company in NY to help advertise amd make flyers so it cost him nothing for that...
Meanwhile lots of daughters of poor men reaaly did go missing in NY...
Willard didnt give them a thought...
He hasnt looked for any missing girls since..
yeah sounds like Willard is applying for the wrong job...
starting up a missing childrens agency seems more in line with his qualifications...
Is moonshine in short supply today in TN?
I dont know...
was your usual supplier arrested ???
That’s funny, I was thinking the exact opposite, too much moonshine in TN. Maybe it’s just a bad batch.:)
Employee??
Robert Gay was a powerful Mormon, a Bain executive, who is now a member of the First Quorum of the Seventy.
Romney has never looked for any other person's kid, although he has known thousands of employees and we know that many of their teens left home for a few days, or ran away.
The kid was embarrassed from the massive attention as any of us would have been, and returned home.
and all those baby girls who were murdered because of your boy Wee Willie...
Do you have a feel food tale about them ???
Willie caused them to die...
Horrible deaths in abortion mills...Napalm, poison, limbs torn off...
Wheres the campaign story on those “lost” girls ???
not just one...
MILLIONS of them...
It’s Amazing to me how people act until it’s their kid that is lost or frightened then it’s katie bar the door Mitt did a good thing here and all some people can do is poopoo on it Maybe the moonshine is tainted with a bit of bitter waters ....
bump!
I recall reading story about a kid with terminal cancer who was not even an employee’s son, where Romney spent lot of time caring for that kid in spite of his very busy schedule.
But that is NOT why I am voting for Romney. I value his success in competitive capitalism. That is more than I can ever achieve, and I will bet 1000:1 odds you will never achieve. So I admire it greatly. Compare that to the radical socialist from Chicago who has never run anything, not even a hot dog stand at profit. The country is broke, in case you have not noticed. We are heading towards Greece faster than a speeding bullet. If we ever needed turnaround specialist with proven record, this is it.
