Every week the DUmp monkeys find something that is small and try to turn it into a huge issue that will be the final nail in Romney's coffin. This wekk it is the phrase, "you people".

Asked about releasing tax returns, the GOP candidate's wife says her family isn't hiding anything.
With Mitt Romney in attack mode, Ann Romney was on the TV circuit Thursday morning, talking to Robin Roberts on Good Morning America. During that interview, she was pressed on whether her husband will release his taxes for more than the last two years. Her comments are being widely reported as this:
We've given all you people need to know and understand about our financial situation and how we live our life.
Needless to say, using "you people" is pretty much never a good look -- at the very least, it comes across as patronizing and condescending. Dan Amira reviewed the tape and comes away arguing that's not actually what she said -- that in fact she just stumbled verbally. It's a tough call, but you can watch and decide for yourself. But who cares if Ann Romney had a brief slip? As verbal gaffes go, this one ranks pretty low. People who see this as proof of Romney's irredeemable snobbiness almost certainly felt she was irredeemably snobby already. Nor is it news that the Romneys aren't big fans of the media.

1. They are condescending pompous criminals
And the stupid who already support them will not see this for the demeaning way it was presented.
How are they criminals? If anyone in this election has a criminal past it is Mr Choom.

No, she called anti-American trash "you people." If you people were smarter, you'd know that.

Those morons are such racists.

by you people she meant the MSM, the democrat party, and all of the various 0bama election fraudsters. They are all one in the same.

I guess they needed something new since the Bain=Batman's supervillian Bane=Romney thing flamed out once the new film premiered and it was learned that Bane & his minions are more like a swipe at OWS. (Even though the author claims its just a coincidence)
Actually, the revelation was so alarming to OWS, that they made a statement that the movie is fictitious, and that all of the OWSies are a bunch of peace-loving hippies.
It also appears that all of the Bain Capital outrage has done nothing for Obama -except lower his likability ratings- since he has gone hard negative. And those likability ratings are all Obama has.
Dummies should realize that if The One has already gone to 'Scorched Earth' tactics, that his campaign is in the crapper.
So, now its gone to Mrs. Romney's 'You people' comment... Which is supposed to indicate that she is 'talking down' to the common folk. 'You people' also has some nice racist overtones to boot- So, I suppose we are back to fighting the racist 1% as the Democrat's campaign theme, instead of highlighting all of the accomplishments of the first four years of the Obama presidency.

I think I'll accommodate them and just call them 'You Buttholes' from now on. That should make them happy.

I've called them much worse than that and still didn't do them justice.

Sadly, we only have so many words to work with, and English doesn't have a word for "egotistical, uneducated 'moran' with the table manners of a goat, not to mention the aroma, combined with as much comprehension of reality as the average marmoset, with as much chance of succeeding in life as a fresh dog turd steaming on the sidewalk during a hot summer's day"...

They're "bottom dwellers". It's all they know. It's all they will achieve.
They are the proctologists of the human race.
They start at the bottom...and stay there!

You people are ridiculous.

It was put down that fast. Boy, they're reaching!
They know. Their time is up in 100 or so days. :yahoo: For at least a generation, maybe longer.
PS--my retired moonbat co-worker and I talked last night. He's gone from being absolutely sure that he was going to win our $100 bet on the Presidential election, to "50/50." He actually told me that he hopes that Romney wins. What's that tell you? And, I'll be abnle to leaqrn more, as we're going to Saratoga Race Course's Opening Day today.
