It couldn't have been done privately?
Give me a break.
Now we have Mitt's stash?
Did it come from Mitt's TARP income?
Richard A. Viguerie: Romneys Real Bain Capital Problem is His Hypocrisy ".....And the major reason TARP failed to protect jobs was that instead of being a program to keep credit available by moving illiquid mortgage-backed securities off the books of banks, TARP quickly became a no-strings-attached cash infusion to favored insider financial institutions and corporations, whose highly compensated employees are now supporting Mitt Romney.
Among the insiders who received the no-strings-attached cash were Goldman Sachs Group Inc, Deutsche Bank AG, Merrill Lynch, Societe Generale, Calyon, Barclays Plc, Rabobank, Danske, HSBC, Royal Bank of Scotland, Banco Santander, Morgan Stanley, Wachovia, Bank of America, and Lloyds Banking Group.
Federal Election Commission campaign finance reports shows Romney banked over $798,000 from employees of TARP recipients...."
Very likely.. Indirectly, of course, through one of the companies "Chainsaw Mitt" looted.
Check out his TARP proceeds that’s the scandal.
The new “Oprah”....
Buy your audience or friends off when the true you has been outed.
Still wouldn’t give a crap if he’d raised her from the dead.
FUMR.
Of course everyone and their brother is now going to be asking him for cash. He must turn them down, which will defeat his objective of appearing big-hearted. I presume that he didn't think this through.
Hell, I could give 50=60 bucks. What’s the point?
It shows how ham-handed he is then.
Just like the $10,000 BET and the embarrassing debate admission:
That's -- I'm running for office, for Pete's sake, I can't have illegals. [video clip]
...and how naive he was for posing for a photo like this:
What is that photo ???
Where and when and why etc ???
This is the equivalent of a good photoshop - ie, it was probably staged.
I guess the point is that he will continue that fine Democrat tradition of providing spending cash for its constituents. $50-60 one time ain’t crap. $50-60 a day to millions is big moolah which you and I will pay
Romney hands Obama a photo opportunity "This photo taken during Romneys early Bain days summarizes the Obama argument: Mitt Romney is Gordon Gecko. The two, Obama will argue, have the same motto: Greed is good.".........................
A lord of the permanent ruling class handing out trifles to one of his servants. What an appropriate symbol of 2012 America.
Shoulda gave her the 10k he won in that bet.
Romney didn’t win and Perry didn’t embarrass Mitt by taking it (Mitt was doing such a good job embarrassing himself, again, getting rattled by Perry).
Wow, I’m not a big fan of Romney, but does everything he does have to be spun negatively? He did a good deed and he’s still slammed for it.
How Romney is THAT?
Bain Capital, has cut checks totaling $90,000 to Romneys operation.
A good deed? He was pulling a tacky public spectacle.
If he had any class, he’d have done this in private.
I knew that, but the average joe might not. All they hear on TV is that he had “10 thousand dollars” to throw away and now he hands out fifty bucks.
