Romney keeps relearning history’s gaffe lessons
WASHINGTON (AP) - Who says Mitt Romney doesn’t worry much about the very poor? That he believes corporations are people, too? That his wife drives two Cadillacs?
Romney himself, that’s who. When it comes to portraying the Republican nominee as an uncaring, out-of-touch rich guy, he’s his own worst enemy, offering up a bonanza for Democratic attack ads.
Romney hit the trifecta this time by saying that 47 percent of Americans believe they are victims, think “government has a responsibility to care for them” and are unwilling to step up and support themselves.
He may seem doomed to relearn the same loose-lips lesson over and over again in 2012. But Romney’s far from the first candidate to blunder into a buzz saw of his own words. His rival, President Barack Obama, still hasn’t lived down a similar incident from 2008.

Romney keeps relearning history’s gaffe lessons
Just when you start to think that a few folks at AP have awakened, come to their senses and are about to engage in a bit of journalistic integrity, you get a story like that above!
When did telling the truth become a gaffe? When you’re telling the truth about The 47% of America that IS the hard-core support base of Barack Hussein Obama, that’s when!
Mitt Romney told the truth; there is a certain segment of this nation that is unwilling to step up and support themselves. They rely on the U.S. government and the welfare system of whatever state they happen to live in, to provide them with everything.
Food stamps, welfare checks, social security checks, free medical care at the County or State hospital , free education for their children, if the children can be kept in school and out of gangs that is. Many of the recipients of social security are NOT disabled in any way, they have found out that some bleeding heart in government considers them to be at a disadvantage because their one talent in life is being able to give birth to 15-20 kids, all the while *gaming* the system to pay for these children.
Mitt Romney spoke the TRUTH and the press castigates him for it. The only thing Romney didn’t do was point his finger directly at the segment of the population that supports Obama in this manner and name them by name, but I will; the above is not a thing more than a description of the BLACK community in ANY city that still lives in the filth of *da �?hood* or the ghetto, whatever you want to call it.
Speak truth to facts and see what you get! I can barely contain my joy knowing the names I am going to be called for simply TELLING THE TRUTH.
Yesterday CNBC ran a poll, it has since been taken down apparently, but that poll was answered by 18,213 people and the vast majority of those participants agree with Mitt Romney on his statement about *The 47%*. CNBC Poll: 75% Agree With Romney’s 47% Comments , but the media says Romney committed a gaffe. Go figure.
The people that support Barack Hussein Obama are the WELFARE SLUGS of this nation, the laziest form of human imaginable. They want to live off the sweat of OUR brows, and that is exactly what Obama and company are going to allow them to do!
I would suggest that the American people *grow a set* and lose the inherent PCness that stops many from calling it like it is, from pointing out the obvious, that which we ALL know but so many are afraid to point out for fear of being called a RACIST!
I’m going to let you in on a little something; I speak the truth, I am fed up to the point of being SICK with political correctness and I don’t give a DAMN what people call me.
This needs to be said and said loud and clear by every American - but you will hear very FEW politician’s even mention it, because they might not get relected!
Fred, if I was close by I’d pat you on the back and buy you dish of Blue Bell, Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream!
And this post is the PERFECT indicator regarding WHY I am not nor ever will be a politician…
I am NOT going to speak the words people WANT to hear, I am not going to kiss the asses of ANY block of voters to get their vote, I call a spade a spade and that is something *The 47%* can’t handle, and sadly, it’s a fact that many so-called Conservatives can’t handle either…
It’s time to STAND UP AND FIGHT! And by God, NO FIGHT has ever been won on defense and political correctness…
I am so tired of the *smiling Jack* politicians that pass themselves off as REAL Conservatives… They haven’t got a set of balls between em…
This is what the truth looks like:
“There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. Alright? There are 47 percent who are with him; who are dependent upon government; who believe that they are victims; who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them; who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it, that that’s an entitlement; and the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what. And, I mean, the president starts off with 48, 49—he starts off with a huge number. These are people who pay no income tax. Forty-seven percent of Americans pay no income tax. So our message of low taxes doesn’t connect. So he’ll be out there talking about tax cuts for the rich. I mean, that’s what they sell every four years. And so my job is not to worry about those people. I’ll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives. What I have to do is convince the five to ten percent in the center that are independents, that are thoughtful, that look at voting one way or the other depending upon, in some cases, emotion, whether they like the guy or not.”
Mitt Romney, May 2012
Over the last 40 yrs the Progressives/Marxists posing as Democrats have created a class of parasites (black, white and hispanic) for votes to stay in power with the ultimate goal of destroying what the Founding Fathers created. Time to take our country back!
And THAT is *The 47%*…
Sure, it comprises ALL races, there’s WELFARE SLUGS in all segments, but the majority lies in the BLACK community and their loyalties lie with Obama because of some perceived *kinship*…
The dumb bastards don’t realize that as soon as he has their vote it’s *under the bus* for them… Or, the back of the bus, as the case may be…
Black folks, Obama supporting Black folks, don’t realize, Obama isn’t about them for any reason other than a vote, Obama supports his REAL and TRUE brothers, ISLAM…
I saw a lot of Conservatives , black & white, yesterday on Twitter agreeing with what Romney said. Some were basically saying that the left in leaking this video got out something we wanted said, that Romney should just add, I’m Mitt Romney and I endorse this ad, on the end of it and start airing it.
Exactly! Never deny it, accept it, embrace it and USE it…
But the folks I refer to are NOT your decent, hard working folks of ANY particular race, the people I refer to are WELFARE SLUGS of ALL races, but mostly *from da ‘hood*… That is the Obama base…
Romney speaks the truth and the media goes bonkers.
Obama lies and the media praises him.
Welcome to Upside-Down land Fred. I’m so glad that Romney didn’t back down from the truth. Thinking people DO know the truth. Most of us aren’t that stupid…..God, I pray so anyway.
OK, the poll is still up, as I post this the numbers are now 42,472 votes and 76% still in Romney’s favor
Poll: Are Many Americans Too Dependent on Government? - U.S. Election 2012 - CNBC
It is much more important to cover the “Pimp with a Limp” inteview with Obama then anything that has to do with reality. When was the last time any report of Paul Ryan hit the news? Yet he is out every day.
The polls are skewered towards the Democrats. They are asking 10 to 15% more Democrats than any other group. Of course Obama is going to be ahead. But knowing that, look at the numbers. Obama should be shaking in his boots.
On another note, some good news out of the Middle East, A Pakistani died yesterday as the result of smoke inhalation (he was BURNING A US FLAG)!!!!
Should we fly �?em at half staff………
NOT!!!
Well, I’m back at it and in the fight again,,,, I drive my wife to Baylor Medical Dallas tomorrow, which means that I will “run the gauntlet thru black ghettos” to get there.
I just got out of the hospital, 2 stents placed on the back side of my heart,,,,,yes,,,I have a heart, and will do this tomorrow morning with my .45 AMT Hardballer in my lap.
Many blacks( NI**ERS) in this ghetto are on every stoplight looking for handouts.
The red light is there on,,, I stop,,, A-OK to come to the driver’s window and knock on your driver’s window, you roll it down and they always say,,,”hey mother fucker, you drive a nice car, how about a donation?”
When I raise my .45 AMT HARDBALLER up from my lap to the window ledge and they are looking INTO a HUGE hole, they always say,,, “no problem here, bye,, and they skedaddle to the farthest curb.
I kinda look forward to it.
If “they” weren’t there, I would go into remission.
So, wish me luck. I just went thru 2 stents placed in the back-side of my heart a few days ago. This confirms to many out there,,,, that I actually have a one!!!
Not a bluff mind you, just fact driving in Dallas, Texas.
At least you stop at the red lights. Back in the mid-70’s, I was stationed with a guy from NY City who drove a 68 Shelby GT500. Said when he drove through Harlem, you didn’t stop for red lights and you kept your foot to the floor when you had clear road.
I have to go to Baylor in Dallas on occasion, I NEVER go through that neighborhood without a pistol in my lap, at the ready… Once upon a time that was a decent place where honest working people lived, not now…
Glad you’re OK Mr. Chuck! Keep your powder dry and your hand steady!
I will put you and your wife on my prayer list (With your permission.).
Stay safe and keep your powder dry.
I find it really interesting that this video was done in May but it was just now released. Since being released, the MSM has barely said a word about our embassies being attacked and citizens killed. Our soldiers are being shot by their supposed allies in the Afghan army and nothing being said. All they are concerned about is this video and talking about it. This video was being held by the Obama campaign for “emergency” use just like now or for late October release. Obama’s incompetence led to attacks on twenty of our embassies and it looked really bad for him on foreign policy but now the MSM is focusing on Romney telling the truth in this video.
I posted up something similar yesterday, only I didn’t go in to such eloquent details as you did regarding who that 47% actually is. It absolutely amazes me the way the MSM and libtards are reacting over the truth. When did it become politically incorrect to actually speak the truth? And, moreover, I thought we actually wanted our politicians to be truthful! Has this country really gotten to the point where political lies are actually acceptable and openly telling the truth is cause for concern? What next? Re-education camps?
What is next is civil war if the present situation isn’t corrected and the Obama regime knows it. DHS just bought another 200 million rounds of ammo and Obama had a stooge judge uphold his EO to incarcerate any who he feels is a threat to his agenda (without a warrant of course). So you can see where this crap is leading us.
EVERYthing Romney says = gaffe
EVERYthing Obama says = gospel
