A tool so Mitt Romney can see the reason 47 percent of Americans don't pay fed. income tax



Far fewer Americans were too poor to pay income tax before the Leveraged Buyout artists like Mitt Romney decided the easiest way to make money was to buy companies, bust them up and sell the carcasses.

The best part about Mitt's comment is, many of the people who were fucked by Mitt tuned in to Rush Limbaugh, decided it was "the liberals" that bought up their companies, fired their non-lazy asses and shipped their jobs to China, and turned teabagger. In short, Mitt just threw half his base under one of those campaign buses he flies to.

But I don't think the tea baggers will recognize that. At least the ones I know. Not a smart bunch. I have already seen witty fb posts how everyone on some form of government aide is a liberal never explaining how when they collect unemployment, social security or welfare they haven't suddenly become liberal. They are just not very smart. Kinda just dumb and mean.
