Where was Mitten the Tax Dodger speaking from today

Saw Mittens in typical lying mode earlier telling how great he is and how bad the President is and as usual noticed the people behind him. All white with the excepting of one Asian American, who looked both bored and hot (he fanned himself the entire time) no real surprise there. Also, to no surprise those who looked like they were wage and hour also looked bored and either did not clap or clapped because they knew they were told to. The only one who looked excited to be there was dressed in a tie, I assume a manager, who most likely is getting screwed too but believe Mittens BS.

Nobody really uses the term "oriental" anymore, and most Asians find it offensive.

Just a tip.

I can't keep up with all of the ins and outs of what is the correct terms. But thanks for the heads up.
