If Romney and O'reilly are right and Obama bought everyone's votes with "gifts" then why

Then why didn't he get 100% of the vote? Medicare, Social Security, Welfare, Job Training, Education, Student Loans, National Parks, FEMA, Healthcare, Food Stamps, The Postal System, Public Transportation--all those "gifts"--are for EVERYBODY regardless of who you vote for.

The Republicans take every single "gift" offered to an American citizen. The only difference between a Republican and a Democrat is the Democrat says "thank you" and feels good that the system is there for the people. The Republicans takes the same gifts but spits in your face and calls you a socialist for sharing.

I can understand differences in politics, but bad manners are just bad manners, plain and simple.
