Great point about liberal hypocrisy. If the guy in charge is liberal the company is hailed and put on a pedestal. Bain did the same thing, but is trashed, because Romney is now running against the king of hypocrisy himself.

If Romney is such a big joke - Obama must be a bigger joke to be essentially dead even in the polls despite having the advantages of the incumbency.

Never said I liked Buffet, people I admire are the Steve Jobs type who create an entire industry.

Romney kicked butt based on your article..."Bain reaped a 500 percent return on its investment in the nation’s largest pizza delivery chain over 12 years."

Steve Jobs who out sourced jobs to China? Steve Jobs that copied others technology ruthlessly? Just more liberal hypocrisy.

You realize that Steve Jobs didn't invent the iPod or iPad and Apple wasn't the first to create similar products?

Steve Jobs is like Thomas Edison. An idea and credit thief who was more P.T. Barnum than an innovator. | AndroidActivist

So it is okay to overlook Steve Jobs outsourcing, thievery and other business faults because his products are "hip." But likewise, we must ignore all of the good Romney did and just focus on outsourcing and other possible (mostly imaginary) negatives?
