Obama's Bain Capital Ad

I like the ad the Democrats put out - interviewing some of the people who
lost their livelihoods when Bain Capital bought, then scrapped, their
employers.
They were doing good business.
But then the Republicans came in, raided their pensions, and shut down the
factory so everyone lost what they invested in their pension fund.
Romney can't deny it happened because there are just too many witnesses.
He just says that what happened wasn't his fault; that as CEO, he was out of
touch with the day-to-day operations of his company.
Besides, Bain didn't fully bankrupt the company until years later.
In the mean time, they used it as a shell corporation, to legally masque
activities by his other companies.
When it was overloaded with worthless "assets" from his other companies, he
bankrupted it and saddled taxpayers with sorting out the debts.
And that's what a Romney presidency would look like as well.
He would legally wreck a lot of communities, and then say it's not his fault
because he's not the one in charge.
Then we would all have to spend our time and money, figuring out just how
extensive the damage is, and how best to shore it up.
I like Obama's style better. He's not bogged down with trying to distance
himself from a lifetime of ruining people's lives. He's just looking to the
future, to see how he can make things better for everyone.

Just who is it who "lost their livelihood"?

That seems to be what Tea Party Republicans want most - for America to fail.
Private sector, public sector, quasi-public, quasi-private - they just can't
stand seeing others succeed, especially when they themselves suffer so MANY
personal failures.
It reminds me of a kid in Boy Scout camp who, during a race, tripped one of
my scouts some years back.
I asked him why he did it, and he said "He gets everything. Why should he
get everything?".
Yeah - his parents were Tea baggers.

An unconstitutional bankruptcy and the hard work of real men over the
course of years pays off on Obama's watch.
Yeah, that buys a lot of unemployed people food and gasoline.
Especially the black and the young, who suffer the most and were most
likely to vote for him. Every day they thank Obama for killing an old
feeble guy.
But at least our healthcare costs more now, that's quite an
accomplishment.

No, you anti-government, racist freaks have been around a very long time.

be a discredit to whatever position you are trying to advocate. But that
often happens with people who can't come up with anything substantive to
say and are left with nothing to do but hurl childish insults. We see
that here almost daily.

the entire US. Romney couldn't steal as much from taxpayers as Obama has
even if he had the theives Obama hires.
Romney is accomplished, and a business man, and Obama is morally
corrupt, a failure and should be a shoe shine boy for all his business
knowledge.

you sound. You posted, "150 years ago you called yourselves the
"Confederacy". Today it's "Tea Party".
Kids in the third grade of elementary school learn that 150 years ago it
was the Republican Party that ended slavery and preserved the union and
that it was the Democrats who resisted civil rights until 1964. That is
basic American education. You couldn't even compete against Jeff
Foxworthy's fifth graders.

Imagine going to bed with Obama as the last thing on your mind?
Imagine waking up to Obama as the first thing on your mind?
No wonder these people are crazy........
