100% right. Transparency, Honesty, and Trust are part of the ingredients what make up a good leader.Caring about the people not caring about yourself.
 
With criteria like that, how can you even think about supporting or voting for Obama?
 
Well there is little thought needed when the alternative is voting for a bunch of Xenophobic powermad conservatives who actually want to go to war with Iran, Syria ... then whoever is next on their list of those who don't fit in.

 


Yes, Romney won't even release his tax records, its not required but everyone does it. Just a precursor to the type of administration he will run.
 


If this was such a big worry why didn't people ask him to release it BEFORE he ran for president?
 
Tax returns blah, blah, blah...Bain Capital blah, blah, blah...Romney is rich blah, blah...the Obama rhetoric record player is skipping.

Holy crap! I thought Obamamaniacs hit the bottom of the barrel when they beat the Bain horse to death...but to my surprise, the Obamabots deliver yet another article that falls into the "who really gives a crap" category.

I heard Obama once took money from Indonesian pirates to finance a trip into Laos to secure several tons of marijuana for the Choom Gang.

I just hope Barry remembered to pass the dutchy on left hand side...
 
I dont know how you dont think its important that the republican nominee knowingly took 40% of Bain's initial capital from a government that was murdering its people.
 
Any correlation of what Romney did 30 years ago to raise capital to start a business and to how he would run his Presidency or Administration is disingenuous and just all out stupid.

If that same standard were to be applied to Obama, the Obama presidency and administration would be a bastion of poetry circles, marxist meetings, the West Wing would stink of stale bong water, and Obama's Secretary of the Interior would be Tony Rezko.



 


Were you trying to make a point? Or are you just deflecting the topic with rubbish because you don't want to talk about it?
 


Funny how you never read the articles, it mentions that he referenced them as recently as 2007.
 
I read the article and I never commented on anything about the last time Romney referenced the Salvadorians, that's your creation...but perhaps if you read the article and maintained a modicum of reading comprehension, you would have noted that Romney first met with the Salvadorians in 1984, almost 30 years ago, just as I stated in my post...let's not even get into the "guilt by association" politics as the HuffPo article can only make loose allegations and insinuate, typical Chicago style slanderous political tactics...and any correlation between what Romney did in 1984 as an indicator of his Presidency is still disingenuous and stupid!
 
I'm making the same point as you...it must be that the picture of your hero Obama puffing that big fatty with the far away stoner look in his eye has shattered your image of the great purveyor of Hope, Change, and a New Era of Civility.

Puff, puff, pass...
 


Smoking pot is fine in my book.
 


I would just rather have my elected officials getting stoned 30 years ago instead of starting a company with money taken from South American governments that were systematically murdering their citizens.

 


The fact that he referenced it as recently as 2007 just reinforces the fact that it still is part of who he his(he still associates with those people), the fact that you try to deny this, then call Obama a pot head is just hypocritical. I was wrong you did read the article, you just fell victim to ignorance. Many different publications have picked up this story during different times as well. You continue to dodge the reasoning and facts with the use of smoke and mirrors, deflecting blame towards my reading comprehension, Chicago politics and the reputation of HuffPo. If it was any other publication I am sure your response would of been the same.
 
It is unfortunate that China holds so much debt from us. Pretty soon the U.S. Dollar will be worth nothing if this keeps up with China.
 
*** Mitt Says - Mingo Edition.

"I'm not a big-game hunter. I've made that very clear. I've always been a rodent and rabbit hunter.
Small varmints, if you will. I began when I was 15 or so and I have hunted those kinds of varmints since then. More than two times." -- Mitt Romney

"[I don't follow NASCAR] as closely as some of the most ardent fans. But I have some great friends who are NASCAR team owners." - Romney

"My sons are all adults and they've made decisions about their careers and they've chosen not to serve in the military and active duty and I respect their decision in that regard. One of the ways my sons are showing support for our nation is helping me get elected because they think I'd be a great president."

"I'm not concerned about the very poor. We have a safety net there."

[My wife] drives a couple of Cadillacs."

"I believe in an America where millions of Americans believe in an America that's the America millions of Americans believe in. That's the America I love."

"I'm not sure about these cookies. They don't look like you made them. No, no. They came from the local 7/11 bakery, or whatever." —Mitt Romney, visiting a local bakery while campaigning in Pittsburgh, PA, April 17, 2012 (The owner of the baker later told MSNBC he was offended by Romney's remarks.)

"It's not worth moving heaven and earth, spending billions of dollars just trying to catch one person." —Mitt Romney, speaking in 2007 about killing Osama bin Laden


"I'm not familiar precisely with what I said, but I'll stand by what I said, whatever it was." —Mitt Romney (May 17, 2012)

In his 2008 presidential campaign, Romney simply lied repeatedly while trying to reinvent himself as a conservative. For example:

-- "I have a gun of my own."
(Not true. He was talking about a gun one of his grown sons own.)

-- "I've been a hunter pretty much my entire life."
(He hunted once at 15, and a second time in his late 50s.)

-- "I told you what my position was, and what I, what I did as governor; the fact that I received the endorsement of the NRA."
(No - and his Democratic opponent actually had a higher NRA rating)

-- "I saw my father march with Martin Luther King."
(No, they never marched together. They were both in Michigan at the same time once, but Mitt was in France on his mission.)

-- "My father and I marched with Martin Luther King Jr. through the streets of Detroit."
(even more false...)

*** People say about Mitt.

“Pick any other Republican in the country. He is the worst Republican in
the country to put up against Barack Obama.”
~Rick Santorum, calling Mitt Romney the worse Republican anyone can possibly pick to be the nominee, Racine, Wisconsin, March 2012

“I do not yet know if I will find a Romney presidency more acceptable on foreign policy. But I do know that I must oppose the most recent statements made by Mitt Romney in which he says he, as president, could take us to war unilaterally with Iran, without any approval from Congress.”
~Rand Paul, National Review, June 2012

“I don’t know who all of his advisers are, but I’ve seen some of the names and some of them are quite far to the right. And sometimes they might be in a position to make judgments or recommendations to the candidate that should get a second thought.”
~Colin Powell, MSNBC, May 2012

“We’re not going to beat Barack Obama with some guy who has Swiss bank accounts, Cayman Island accounts, owns shares of Goldman Sachs while it forecloses on Florida and is himself a stockholder in Freddie Mae and Freddie Mac while he tries to think the rest of us are too stupid to put the dots together to understand what this is all about.”
~Newt Gingrich, Mt. Dora, Florida. January 26, 2012

“All we have to do is replace Obama. We are not auditioning for fearless leader. We don’t need a president to tell us in what direction to go. We know what direction to go. We want the Ryan budget. We just need a president to sign this stuff. We don’t need someone to think it up or design it. The leadership now for the modern conservative movement for the next 20 years will be coming out of the House and the Senate. Pick a Republican with enough working digits to handle a pen to become President of the United States. This is a change for Republicans: the House and Senate doing the work with the president signing bills. His job is to be captain of the team, to sign the legislation that has already been prepared.”
~Grover Norquist, calling for conservatives to elect a weak President they can use as a puppet, CPAC, February 2012. NOTE: While Norquist did not specifically mention Romney, other Republicans on this list have noted Romney’s weak leadership skills and his lack of spine in standing for what he believes in. Bryan Fischer stated in an earlier quote that Romney would be a pushover as President, which is exactly the kind of President that Norquist wants

*** comedians say about Mitt.


"Mitt Romney was marching in a Martin Luther King Day parade, and made a valiant effort to reach across cultures and connect with African-Americans [on screen: Romney asking a group of black children 'Who let the dogs out, whoo whoo!']. This courageous attempt to communicate across cultures has many pundits asking the question 'Is Mitt Romney retarded?'" --Stephen Colbert

"Congratulations to Mitt Romney, he was the big winner in the Michigan primary. His dad used to be governor there, which I think is an inspiration. It proves in America that you don't have to be the wife of a former president to win, sometimes you can just be the son of a governor." --Jay Leno


"This is a ridiculous election. If I hear this word 'change' one more time, I'm going to change the channel. ... Even Mitt Romney, who is running for president as Ward Cleaver, is for change. Every time he gets up there, he says, 'I love change. Change is good. Who doesn't like change? Whatever I just said, I'd like to change that.'" --Bill Maher

"Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney announced he's running for president. If he wins, he'd be the first Mormon president. Apparently, Romney is planning on winning the soccer mom vote by marrying all of them." --Conan O'Brien

"Hookers in Times Square, God bless 'em, are offering a Mitt Romney Special. For an extra $20 they'll change positions." —David Letterman
 
Remember, the poor can take care of themselves.

The rich have all the answers.

You must obey anyone who tells you that your ideas are wrong; they are the expert.

Elect a guy who makes George W. Bush look like Jack Kilby.

We cannot spend more money on entitlements, we need more money for wars.

Independents? Wat independents? All I see are wannabe Regan-lovers.

God will take our country away if we allow liberals to exist.

Say you are for education; takes money form education expenditures to fund private project.

Tell voters to listen to them; doesn't listen to voters during incumbency.

The pen is mightier that the sword. Remember that when you go against an angry mob next week.

-The GOP mantra.
