Whatever imaginary evils of Bain Capital you may have, we have far worse evil sitting in our Oval Office at this very moment, a man who has put his own pleasure ahead of the security of this nation, and our Embassies, resulting in the death of four Americans, including our Ambassador.

Not only this, but the man currently occupying the Oval Office has, through his lack of leadership and sound foreign policy, established an al-Qaeda stronghold in Benghazi. Al-Qaeda is alive and well, and growing stronger, not "on the run" and hardly defeated.

He has placed America in much more danger now than we have been in since WWII, having destroyed a strong ally, Egypt, alienated another, Israel, and facilitated and enabled a terrorist organization, the Muslim Brotherhood, to take power over virtually the entire Middle East.

This has been done either out of total ignorance, or on purpose. I suspect the latter, for how could a man who had listened to the rants of a maniac screaming "G. D. America" for twenty years as well as openly expressing hatred for Jews, and one who also supports The Nation of Islam, a man who has spent his life hoping for and working toward a communist revolution in America (links below, articles by a classmate who at the time was also a revolutionary), be trusted to have any love for this country? He doesn't.

It can now be clearly understood what he meant by "fundamentally transform" the United States of America.

Mitt Romney, a man of integrity, and a man who loves his country and his countrymen, who knows how wealth and jobs are created and how an economy works, is not the imagined "evil capitalist" in shiny black suit and spats, making himself rich by manipulation and exploitation of others.

His success gives testament to his business acumen and sound economic philosophy. He is what we need right now. He is confident, and he is statesman like.

The deceiver here, and the manipulator and exploiter is the current occupant of the White House, Barack Obama.

I can only conclude that those who support Obama do it out of plain ignorance, or they share his view of America, that it is evil, and must be destroyed.

Are you it has absolutely certain it has nothing to do with the fact that things are only slowly getting better and so people aren't spending like they use to and therefore businesses aren't hiring like they use to?

Just pretend that you're a business owner and you sell a thousand units of a product a week. Now say you get a $100,000 tax savings annually, then ask yourself if you're automatically going to hire more workers to produce more product a week just because you have $100,000 extra in your pocket? Unless you're a bad owner, you WOULD NOT hire anyone new because unless demand for your product increases from that thousand units a week, why would you hire more workers to make more of your product that you won't be able to sell?

In the end you're going to pocket the money and either wait until demand for your product goes up or else you're going to use that money elsewhere. But if you have any brains you're not going to hire new employees when demand isn't there. The point is a tax decrease isn't automatically going to make businesses hire more people. They need DEMAND to go up before that happens.
This shows you have no clue about business, taxes, and economics.

That factory in Freeport had record profits last year and yet Bain (who owns 51% including a ton of shares belonging to Romney) is closing up to replace the $17.00 an hour workers with $1.00 an hour workers over in China. And to rub salt in the wound the Freeport workers have to train those Chinese workers between now and December when the plant closes. Some where a long the line corporations have to start stepping up to the plate and show their patriotism and quit giving our jobs away!!!!!!!!! If corporations are people, too, like Romney claims then they need to start thinking like Americans, not greedy little pigs.

I see that people are still trying to say how good Bain Cap. is. Mr steal your pension and load you with debt Romney created this Co. and the model which it uses. I suggest that there are other ways to increse equity then to HARVEST small to mid size companies and send them and there equipment to China. I suggest that all the employees of these harvested companies will show up on the govt. which Mr Steal your pension and load you with debt Romney wants to weaken.

I suggest that a vote for Mr steal your pension and load you with debt Romney is voting against yor best interest,even in Salisbury,NC a co. was harvested this past summer and 137 people lost good non-union jobs.

Do you mean like Solyndra and all the other Obama campaign contributors to whom he doled out billions of taxpayer dollars in payback, and are now bankrupt? You know who the losers are? American taxpayers! We'll never see that money again.

Small businesses won't just pop up because of tax cuts, they will only pop up if there is a market to support them. And if you don't understand what a loss of nearly nine million private sector jobs can do to that market, you're the kind that makes for the perfect recipe towards the next one.


Instead of expecting everybody to applaud your idea of shooting in the dark, name only one regulation we can discuss.
You are clueless.

My question is, why were you ignorant lefties not complaining about this in JULY of this year and stop acting like it just happened last Monday...?

You certainly are showing your political colors aren't you? I think you need to understand big business a little better. Sometimes out sourcing is the only answer. What do you think is going to happen with Obamacare? Have you been keeping up on the number of people that will have to become independent contrractors or the number who will be forced to work 2 jobs, both part time so companies will not have to offer benefits? Have you read up on Romney's turning the Olympics around? And do you get all your information from liberal publications?
