Romney Pisses Off College Students!



Recent video released by Mother Jones shows Romney claiming 47 percent of Americans are supporters of President Obama because they are people "who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them." Romney went on to state he could never get that 47 percent to "take personal responsibility and care for their lives." Turns out college students didn't like being called victims! Find out more with John Iadarola and Lisa Ferguson on TYT University!

in Little Rock, the manager of the meat department told me that he was voting for Romney because "the Bible said the Anti-Christ will come from the North" (meaning Obama), and it's his "Christian duty" to vote for a man who believes in God (meaning Romney). I think that many older white men have developed this or a similar 'christian' justification for their support of Romney. I'm glad these students are able to see how toxic is Mr. Romney.

I tried to be diplomatic with this poor man, but his delusion runs deep. I will be looking for another place to shop for organic food.

John Fugalsang on current TV had a great comment about hate & christians..

1 John 4:20
If a man say, I love God, and hates his brother, he is a liar: for he that loves not his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

The second I hear hate coming outa any xtian, i whip this verse out and start telling them that God does not know them & get ready to burn in hell.

None have been able to justify hatred other than non relevant OT books....

Many of our College students are carrying heavy loads of debt, stress, and working hard to prepare for a job. I can't think of a more responsible way for our college student's to behave...
