LOL. This is beyond ridiculous anymore.

"While Democrats assail presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney's Bain Capital business practices, Republicans note that President Obama has not been bashful about accepting cash from Bain executives or other high-profile figures in the corporate buyout business. "President Obama has based his entire reelection campaign on a vicious, dishonest assault on Mitt Romney's business career. The real question for President Obama is this: if Bain Capital is so bad, why have you taken nearly $120,000 in donations from them?" said Romney spokeswoman Andrea Saul. "President Obama's actions are the height of hypocrisy."

Right, the only worse example than Obama could be the Democrats and what they did to California.

Everyone of you detractors would take the money also. Why wouldn't they want to take in donations from BAIN people?
Great news fodder. BAIN EMPLOYEES CONTRIBUTE TO OBAMA CAMPAIGN.

Don't many companies contribute to both parties to ensure that they have a piece of the winner?

DMML i say that over and over again on this forum. People in my State who keep voting these clowns, these ignorant people to run this State, deserve what happens.

They are so full of themselves, that they can't comprehend what is happening, it is mind boggling.

Like what is happening to this Country, and this economy, going to be stupid enogh to want 4 more yrs of this, then should you lose your job or your home, sorry then you deserve it.

We are not done yet, talked to someone i know who works pretty high up in the Banking and Housing industry yesterday. He said, no way we are thru with this recession, inspite what we may hear on the news or read in the magazines, things are going to be negative for some time.

Housing criris is here to stay for a while, even though construction has picked up a bit.

Well, yeah, but when Obama is so bound to talk about ethical behavior it seems he isn't being very ethical, himself.

At least he's working for it. Mitt took the money from Bain and did nothing at all for the company, except sign documents as CEO. Wasn't involved. That's Mitt. I'll just sign whatever you give me. Don't know what it is. Don't care. Gimme the papers. Obama is campaigning like a maniac. Mitt just sat back and let the cash roll in for years and didn't lift a finger to do anything involved with Bain.

If I was Bain, I'd pick Obama, too.
