Rahm Emanuel to Mitt Romney: ‘Stop Whining’
http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/07/rahm-emanuel-to-mitt-romney-stop-whining/
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel said this morning on “This Week” that presumptive GOP nominee for president Mitt Romney should “stop whining” about attacks on his Bain record and just defend himself.
“What are you going to do when the Chinese leader says something to you or Putin says something to you?” said Emanuel. ”I give him his own advice. ’Stop whining.’ Defend — if you want to claim Bain Capital as your calling card to the White House, then defend what happened to Bain Capital.”
Emanuel was defending Obama deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter for suggesting that Romney might have committed a felony for claiming in his presidential financial disclosure form that he did not have an active role at Bain after February 11, 1999, despite maintaining formal titles and having signed SEC documents on behalf of the company after he said his active role ended.
“He said ‘CEO, sole shareholder, president.’ You can’t — as president of the United States you can’t have a sign on your desk that says, gone fishing.’ You can’t put that on that desk. It’s basically the buck stops there,” said Emanuel. “You can’t say to the SEC, ‘I was the CEO, chairman and president, but I’m not responsible. I’m not accountable.’”

Romney refuses to be honest about anything.
That will be his undoing during the debates. Lies are hard to keep track of and our Prez won't need a back speaker like Bush to remember the sordid details.
You're messin with the Ninja President, as Bill Maher likes to say.
Nixon will have looked composed against Kennedy compared to Mitt against the Ninja Prez.
Waahhhh! 
Spoiled prick!
I don't totally trust him but he sure has a way with letting them have it but good! 
Good self control Rahm!
many perks and stuff.
He needs to get out into America More..and not DC or VA (where the Military Contractors are) but out here in AVERAGE AMERICA.
But, then....he doesn't need to ....so why should he. He's doing good. So...WTF should people be Whining about!
From "his perspective"....I guess I could put myself in his "chosen shoes" and walk and think the same as he thinks.
Love it!
Like everything else, he robosigned all these documents from a remote location. Like everything else, he decided he wasn't there even if he was, and he was for the mandates before he was against them, and he was for legal abortions before he was against them, and he was for everything before he was against everything.
End.Of.Discussion.
Now to his undisclosed tax returns.
