Hang down your head, Mitt Romney
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head, Mitt Romney
Poor boy, you’re bound to lie
lol
From this article:
Yet now Romney has the audacity to come out of the obscurity he so richly deserves in order to do it again. That is, to help insure that Hillary Clinton follows Obama into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Then again, maybe that is not so surprising. Romney is completely on board with the Imperial Citys conceit about its indispensable role in bringing security, stability, ballot boxes, Coca Cola and long pants to the backward peoples of the Middle East and other benighted lands.
When it comes to Hillarys foreign policy agenda regime change in Libya, no fly zones in Syria, stumbling back into the Iraq quicksand, punching Putin in the nose, pivoting to China to rag about its sand bars in the Spratly Islands and much moreRomney is completely in sync. Hes a neocon echo chamber who has not the slightest grasp that the Washington War Party is ransacking the world and bankrupting the nation.
Actually, Romneys much worse. The Warfare State is burying the taxpayers of America in insuperable debts, but this fool campaigned four years ago for eliminating the sequester and enacting a dramatic increase in the already bloated Pentagon budget. At the same time, he refused to call for a sharp means test on social insurance entitlements for the affluent retirees and loudly declaimed he would not raise taxes.
But then there was no special reason to expect that Romney would excel in fiscal math. After all, when you make a fortune riding financial bubbles and scalping profits from failing and impaired companies you dont need to be that sharp with the pencil.
GOOD one, K.T. fan!
David Stockman. Now there’s a blast from the past. I think he worked on the national budget during Reagan’s administration.
I’ve been hearing more from him in the past year. I guess he misses being part of what makes Washington work.
Once their criminal operation is threatened we can really see the true colors and the truth
Read his book, it’s scary.

I think he’s got it pretty much correct, says the debt will crush us
Good for Stockman, taking down the real flim-flam man.
Romney is doing this because The Cheap Labor Express demanded it.
They are getting desperate to prevent us from electing Trump.
That’s terrifying, is that real?

To too many people it is all about taking sides. So when Romney criticizes Trump, we get posts criticizing Romney. I never thought Stockman was popular here, but suddenly he is.
Romney has no pull for me, but that neither makes his words right or wrong. Stockman has even less appeal, but again his arguments could be good or bad.
Scanning the article, there is the usual smears of doubtful value. Here’s something I could sink my teeth into:
“Actually, Romneys much worse. The Warfare State is burying the taxpayers of America in insuperable debts, but this fool campaigned four years ago for eliminating the sequester and enacting a dramatic increase in the already bloated Pentagon budget. At the same time, he refused to call for a sharp means test on social insurance entitlements for the affluent retirees and loudly declaimed he would not raise taxes.”
This sounds like a Democratic party position. Stockman is even worse that I thought. So now we don’t like Romney because he wouldn’t raise taxes? We don’t like him because he was for increasing defense spending?
Trump probably loves his country - in sharp contrast to Obama. So that is a plus I would like to share. Yet it seems to me that many of his (always avid) supporters at FR are indulging in Anti-Trump Derangement Syndrome.
