Freeport - a town of 25,000 with a declining population and a poverty rate well above the national average, passed a resolution Monday asking Romney to intervene.
I live in Charlotte.
Romney has no direct involvement in the operations of the company he established (despite continuing to make millions as a "passive retired partner").
He has influence. He certainly has the ear of the press, he's a candidate for the Presidency who's had plenty to say about China, jobs, and outsourcing.
It's about time you open your eye's.
Even though Romney is running for president, does not mean he should get involved in every matter that is brought to his attention.
Why is the president not getting involved? I mean, he is running for president, has the ear of the press......Oh, I know...here comes the speech again....deflection....right
You understand what passive means...well, maybe not...
Sensata workers have asked to meet with Mitt Romney and hoped to enlist his help keeping their jobs in the United States.
Romney refused.
The most important part of the story is that Sensata Technologies is profitable operating in Illinois. Net income last year was $355 million, up 16 percent from 2010. The company reported total revenues of $1.8 billion in 2011, up almost 19 percent from the year before. According to a company financial statement, "both 2011 net revenue and adjusted net income represent record levels for the company."
So this has nothing to do with "making hard choices" in the process of turning around a failing business.
I highly suggest you be very careful who you claim is lying.
Whats Tuesday?
So, I was typing quick, you stil cannot defend it....you were talking like it just happened....this past Monday....
Pretty pathetic!!
