sounds spot on to me...“He dismissed these Americans as freeloaders...”
OK, Mittens just gained a point. Didn’t think he had it in him.
SECRET?....this was shown already....Mother Jones...out of material.....rewind news.
I hate to admit it, but the more I see of Romney, the more I like him.
Sounds exactly right to me.
Romney is correct. He is describing those who “bitterly cling to their couch cushions and welfare checks.”
Wonder when Mother Jones is going to obtain the Rashid Khalidi tape of Barry toasting (the tape that the LA Times wouldn’t release)?
I guess Mitt will not be getting the 47 pct who dont pay taxes and freeload. That should cost him about 3 votes
The problem is that there is no sense of shame among the looters, the entitled class. Years ago, this message would have sold well with middle class and regular working class folks. It still may sell today, but I’m not so sure.
This could give Romney victory. I wonder if his team leaked this.
Fox or someone should replay Obama’s welfare auntie saying “I am entitled [to live off the tax payers the rest of my life]”.
sounds spot on to me...
Good!
“.....if we get a “Taxageddon,” as they call it, January 1st, with this president, and with a Congress that can’t work together, it’s— it really is frightening.”
Yes, it sure is.
Obama must go.....
The Libs on posting on Facebook are going to be off the chain tomorrow! Can’t wait to see it! Romney better not appologize for what he said either.
Wrong assessment. A lot of white people on social security vote for Republicans. They don’t pay income tax but are conservatives rather than marxist and Christian rather than amoral. The only guarenteed population Obama has is the permanent welfare mob.
That Romney writes off that many people shows, once again, that the GOP consultants are out of touch with Republican voters. Pretty pitiful.

It might not matter much, but National Review thinks that Romney confused his numbers. NR did calculations though to show that Romney is in the right area with 47%.
Apparently 47% is just the number of people who pay no net tax, meaning they don’t mail a check to the IRS on April 15th. But that could include hard-working people who just had too much tax taken out of their pay checks during the year.
NR includes quotes from a professor saying 40%+ is correct.
He is accurate.
But the problem is he should have said that these people need help.
and he should not have said 47%.
BTW, this is breaking all over the country. Don’t know why it’s in chat.
So why does that commie rag have their panties in a knot. What he said was spot on, and the “silent majority” of Americans who actually give a d@mn will agree with him. Remember the infamous video “Obama gonna pay for my gas and my mortgage?” These people are deadbeats.
