Mitt Romney speech at the NAACP wasn't for the people attending

[LynneSin]

It was to show those racist teabagging assholes that he's 'one of them'

Disgusting

To me Mitt Romney is no longer some uber-rich patronizing asshole who doesn't have a clue how the other 99% live here in the USA.

He's a uber-rich patronizing racist sshole who doesn't have a clue how the other 99% live here in the USA.

1. He didn't fool anyone at the NAACP conference

2. I have never seen anything so blatantly racist EVER in my lifetime.

Romney should hang his head in shame.

3. I'm at the point now when I hear that people are voting for Romney

I believe that almost all of them are voting for him because he is white.

4. seriously

!!

7. Yes

Especially the ones when asked why they don't like the president and they don't know why.

5. Nobody looks good getting their ass booed !

6. Guess the GOP

has figured out that the whole "compassionate conservative" schtick just doesn't work and that it's just best to antagonize groups they don't agree with to pander to the teabagging racists in their party?

8. All he did was underscore how far-right and racist the GOP has become.

Even Shrub got some polite and even moderate applause when he spoke the one time at a NAACP Convention in 2006... But Shrub never purposely set out to insult the audience for cheap thrills to stoke the GOP's lunatic base nor did he experience booing like that - even after thousands of black men, women, and children drowned during his cavalier "Heckuva job Brownie" moments after Katrina the year before.

12. Shrub went to those things hoping a few African-Americans would vote for him....

Romney went in there and told them to all kiss his ass and fuck off.

14. Bingo. nt

[enough]

9. I think you're right. He actually WANTED the clips of black people booing him.

It's part of confirming his Teabagger cred for the base.

[monmouth]

10. That speech was directed toward the TeaKlan...n/t

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

11. EXACTLY!! And we knee-grows know exactly what he was doing.

Jesus, I can't stand this man or his wife. I'm starting to dislike him more than Dumbya. At least Dumbya was a bit affable.

13. I think Bush honestly tried to get support from African-Americans and Latinos

He wasn't good at it but he tried.

This guy is just a racist dickhead!
