Oh wait, let me double down on that and make it $20,000. I have thought about the previous statement i just made, and it was wrong of me, I will bring the wager down to $10, even the 47% can afford that.

he displays all the typical behavior and is classic textbook case,................. what is sad is how much his family is probably affected by it and they don't even realize it and just consider his behavior normal.......no empathy,.......................... all about him,..................what is even sadder is how many people buy into his manipulation and believe he actually gives a shit about them..............I say we give the country a lesson in Narcissism #101, how to recognize the sign and traits, etc..............their "crazy making" behaviors (actual term) that affect everyone around them..............maybe people will wake up and not let the "Devil on the White Horse" (the antichrist) anywhere near the white house!

Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire!

Kind of reminds me of this guy... Cut from the same cloth anyway. The former Ma. Gov. is much more slithery and slick, but Eeew to them both!

Romney has got to be the quintessential slimy, slippery, deceitful, machiavellian politician. He reeks of bad faith and I hope to God he never makes it into office.

To the double down, double back behavior described above you can add the double cross of his own base. This guy is strictly out for himself and no one can trust him. I'd trust Gordon Gecko over this guy.

why not try "DON'T SAY IT AT ALL!!!!!!!"

dude, it wasn't wrong in your estimation until you got busted and dragged through the rose bush backwards for saying it. Had there been no recording of it, the fact of the matter remains, YOU SAID IT AND FELT YOU WERE SAFE SAYING IT. The existence or non-existence of the video doesn't erase that.

You are used to and comfortable with esteeming those who are not in your socio-economic circle with derision and the audience in front of which you spoke is receptive to and comfortable with that very same point of view.

The fact that you don't get that illustrates perfectly the reason why nobody likes your silly ass.
