Saying the entire 47% are “Moochers” is not correct.

Good thing that’s not what Romney said. All he did that I can see is point out the fact that 47% paid no income tax. I guess telling the truth is out of fashion these days.

Of course that is not what I said either.

The quote at the top of my reply was of the Freeper to whom I replied.

Having said that I was trying to illustrate that there are some people within that 47% who are not slackers and will likely vote for Romney.

There are many retirees who live off investment income and social security and incur no tax liablility, as in my example of tax exempt interest from Municipal bonds.
