What Romney said was spot on accurate and the ONLY reason it is an issue is so 0bama doesn't have to dwelle on the murdering of Americans overseas and he is getting away with it via the MSM.
Again, Romney himself said it was not well stated in order to show what he actually meant to say.
Ryan said the same thing.
THEY are telling the truth.
Romney stated a principle that was correct.
He mislabeled an exact figure...the 47% who don’t pay income taxes...as people who all think they are victims and are entitled.
That is NOT correct, and he is being stomped on for saying it.
The working poor are too poor to pay income taxes under the current income tax rates and rules. That isn’t their fault, they didn’t set the rates and rules. They are stuck in low income jobs for whatever reason.
Those receiving social security retirement, medicaid, etc, are receiving a government benefit for which they paid in. Yes we know their payments didn’t cover the amount they are receiving, but they paid and paid and paid, nevertheless, and they have built their lives around these programs. Without them they are dead.
Those who receive unemployment who truly cannot find work while trying their best cannot be lumped in with “victims and entitled and will vote Obama”.
Mitt needlessly insulted and mislabeled a lot of people when he mistakenly put it that way, claiming that a hard and fast number of people who don’t pay income taxes are all Obama supporters and all feel they are victims and entitled.
They need to admit that, and they have admitted it.
YOu, on the other hand, won’t even read it or hear it, even if it comes from THEM, and you won’t even think about it, you just yell that they must not apologize.
Like that will fix the mistaken way Mitt put it.
Well, it hasn’t and it won’t.
They CAN fix it by showing that the principle of what Mitt was trying to say is true, because most people realize that too many people ARE dependent on the government when they wouldn’t have to be if they had a different mindset and if the Democrats didn’t have such awful policies that are meant to trap people into dependency.
The Democrats are ruining the economy, then they turn around and say, only WE can save you from ruin.
That is their approach. And they don’t even care that we are going bankrupt. As long as they are in power, they don’t care about ANYTHING else.
