Romney Explains Obama Voters


A hidden camera video of Mitt Romney at a fundraiser shows him talking disparagingly of people who will vote for President Obama.

Said Romney: "There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That that's an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what...These are people who pay no income tax."

He adds: "My job is is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives."

All you guys in Afghanistan getting shot at by the Afghani police -- you get a 'paycheck' from the government, you expect the government to take care of your health care needs, you are housed by the government -- Rmoney will never convince you that you should take personal responsibility and care for your lives.

So remember -- don't vote for him!

Since he truly believes all the nonsense, it completely disqualifies him from public office of any type, elected or appointed.

Please send this man off to wherever his money is being stashed so that he can bathe in it like Uncle Scrooge McDuck and leave the rest of us alone.

My wife and I work hard and make a good living, and unlike a lot of GOP douche canoes in FL and Orange Co. who thought they could buy 10 million dollar homes on 300k a year, WE LIVE WITHIN OUR MEANS.

And we pay taxes.

So fuck you and the horse you rode in on you sanctimonious cum stain on humanity.
