On my TV just now, Mitt Romney PROMISED to create at least 450,000 jobs ...

Hey, if they can take a projection from an Obama staffer and turn it into the mantra of "Obama promised unemployment would be under 8 percent", then why can't we take Romney's statement of "I'm Mitt Romney and I approve this message" on a promise to create nearly half a million jobs?

8. Why, he will retroactively create them in Massacheusetts, it's simple. Why he didn't create

them years ago? His car elevator didn't go all the way to the top.

13. In the Army, so we can go beat up Iran and Russia.

Those are different countries, aren't they?

[lumpy]

2. Is he planning to take over more companies and send profits to the Caymans ? That is

the only thing left for him to do when he is sitting at one of his homes wondering what to do with the rest of his sorry life.

3. He will.

He just forgot to mention that they will all be overseas, and will be the result of destroying 450,000 jobs here.

4. Romney will say anything

He lies every time he opens his mouth so only his brain dead base will buy into his lies. Of course maybe he meant he would create that many jobs in "CHINA" or that he DID create that may jobs in China when he was at Bain.

6. Yea. Retroactively...hahahaha The Tea and Republicon Parties are like smeared glass. I can see

through them although they try to obstruct my vision.

[lumpy]

9. Well stated.

Fortunately I clean my reading glasses quite often and my ears are in fine shape. Brain's still in pretty good shape for an old broad.

[liberal N proud]

5. In China

7. 450K jobs? Just undo one Bain deal.... nt

10. That's nothing. Paul Kessler, candidate for president of my 8th grade student council, promised. . .

an end to homework, free ice cream for all, a shorter school day and a longer summer break.

True, his promises were made of the same bullshit as Romney's, but I was younger, more naive, and open to believe. Romney's lies today simply strike me as opportunistic fable telling of a cheap and plastic variety. If he's to convince us, he's going to have to come up with a whole new set of lies, more believable and less easily dismissed than those of an 8th grade student council candidate.

11. Liar, Liar...

You know what they say Mittens!

[CanonRay]

12. I smell desperation

with maybe a trace of fear?

[CitizenPatriot]

14. last time he said this

he used the exact number of jobs projected to be created if we did nothing.

I kid you not. Now that's a promise we can believe in, because nothing says GOP like doing nothing to help the people.

[Dustin DeWinde]

15. Obama has created 2,500,000 jobs

Over the last 29 months. And in the face of hyper partisan GOP obstruction to boot. Why would we trade him for a guy who promises five times LESS jobs? Don't any of Romney's people realize that 450,000 is less than one fifth of 2.5 million?

[and-justice-for-all]

16. Is he going to explain how that will be done??

I'm gonna go with no.

[zbdent]

17. I can bet what his "plan" is ...

Tax cuts, and deregulation.

(and he won't mention the corporate welfare with taxpayer dollars, but it will be in the real plan).
