Pity, that Romney does not care about any of these people.

No, Accoring to Mitt, anyone who does not pay tax is a victim, and a loser. If you lose your legs in Afghanistan and to to VA, you are a loser. Get it? A L-O-S-E-R. A moocher, that is. So, says the Twit.

The question is: did Mitt pay taxes? Where are hit tax returns?

There is no legal requirement for Romney to release his tax returns for 10 years. Why should he? Why do you demand it? You only demand it, because you think you will find some 'scandal', which the left is good at inventing, where none exists. Precisely why he shouldn't release them.

My hunch is he paid far more in taxes than the poster you are replying to, and probably far more than most Americans pay, since the rich pay 90% of all taxes.

And as for Romney's so called 'controversial' statement, it isn't. He was absolutely right, and hearing it in context, and it it's entirety (it was aired on Fox's Neal Cavuto and elsewher on Fox News yesterday) it couldn't have been more clear what he meant, and who he was talking about.

You 'Mother Jones' fans need to get a life and find some real news.

Default The left hopes you don't hear it.

If so, yes, that makes you one of those who lacks personal responsibility.

If you're not sitting around freeloading and waiting for handouts, then you aren't one of those.

Jeez, it seems simple enough to figure out.

Did you even listen to what Romney said? Somehow, I think not.
They didn't listen to it, and they hope you don't, because it is a non-controversey. It couldn't have been more clear who Romney was talking about. It was plainly stated in matter of fact terms, and he did not use the word "freeloaders" as "Mother Jones" would have us believe.

This just shows how desparate the leftists are.

Oh, and have you noticed Obama took a dive in yesterdays polls? Romney is up.

The left has tried to make much of this. The statement is a 'yawner,' because it couldn't be more clear what he meant. But the propagandists will do what they can to extract a few words out of context and claim Romney said something other than he did. That is what propagandists do. And this bunch are very desparate!

I find it funny that you go out of your way to cleearify what mitt said but refuse to accept the fact that the repubs created the out of contextual words of Obama when is said that "you did not build that alone" or Biden's "you all will be back in chains". I mean Reall??? You post stuff right out of faux's war room
