NBC’s Dishonest Edit Of Romney’s “Wawa Moment” « Steven Birn Speaks

Within the link you will find links to NBC's edited version of Romney's remarks and Romney's real remarks unedited. NBC edited Romney's remarks to make him look out of touch as if he was purely and singularly amazed at ordering a hoagie with a touchscreen. They then used the false edited version to attack him just for that -- being out of touch. Watching the real version, you can see the difference. He is using it as an analogy about the private sector versus the federal government -- one has competition which leads to innovation, the other doesn't.

Perhaps this is why:

"Apparently NBC will stop at nothing to get Obama re-elected. Mind you that Comcast and General Electric both own NBC. GE’s CEO sits on one of Obama’s White House economic advisory boards and Comcast executives are bundlers for the Obama campaign. "

Its so easy to get Mr steal your pension and load you with debt Romney to look foolish. Aside from that WAWA is great place to get a sub or breakfast even dinner. They even have a small sub about 3 inches, great on a raod trip

You apparently have Romney totally confused with Obama, who aims to steal the future earnings of our youth with his huge debt. Foolish is banking on green technology that can NEVER be profitable. But hey, it's not Obama's money, now, is it?

I see you're OK with journalists carrying the water for "your" candidate. So much for the press being our watchdog, I guess.

MSNBC told a lie.
In other news, water is wet.

In other other news, you are more likely to get a liberal to believe water is not wet, than to believe MSNBC lies.

You know its up to people like you and I and Mr steal your pension and load you with debt Romney to stop. The amount of debt would lower if Mr. steal your pension and load with debt Romney had not forced pensioners into federal programs because he needed to pay his investors back out of any accounts with excess in the comp. that he "protected". When you learn your economics from Henry Hill you dont care about debt as his budget ideas like to use more fed. monies.
We need to all be paying that debt down and after seeing Mr steal your pension and load with debt Romney paying his 15% we will be giving more to him and his cronies.

The congress needs to act on that debt but because its an election year they will do nothing.

I thought Obama was "Mr. Steal your pension" when he ripped off the bondholders to skirt the law for the Unions when GM and Chrysler went through bankruptcy. The biggest bondholders were the combined people with pensions and 401Ks invested in bonds.

So anyways, you say it is okay for NBC to edit video to further an agenda? Would you say the same if it was anti-Obama instead of anti-Romney?

If it was so easy to do, why did they have to distort to do it?

Boss, care to provide some proof or explain how Romney is going to "steal my pension"?

The only people who would actually steal my pension are Barry and the Democrats, who would cheerfully start taxing 401K benefits if they could in order to pay off their special interest constituencies and grow government. They can't get away with it, yet, so they haven't done it.

If Oblama wins another term and the Democrats have Congress, everyone with a 401K should expect it will be raided by the federal government.

Some of the leftwingers posting here are so stupid it's unbelievable. Ignore is a great feature to get rid of them.

Meanwhile, MSNBC is proving itself to be an absolute joke and feeding pablum to people too stupid to know what they're doing and why it's so despicable.

Here's just what you'd expect in terms of an "explanation" from obama-loving andrea;

NO APOLOGY: MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell refuses to acknowledge they misled their viewers over Romney’s Wawa comments » The Right Scoop -

They couldn't "get to" the whole thing.

NEVER lump your thinking and mine together. Ever.

You seriously think that Romney's actions at Bain had more of an impact than Obama and the Dems spending and borrowing on our debt? I think you're the one that has no grasp of economics.
