Get it straight! Romney did not even "create wealth" at Bain, he EXTRACTED WEALTH from companies...

by using the tax code to his advantage, loading up companies with tax deductible debt, and sucking out any funds he could. This included siphoning off pensions funds and screwing the workers out of money they had earned.

Please do not repeat that canard that he created wealth. He did so no more than he created jobs!

How many jobs has 0bama created again?

4. exactly. they extract wealth by cutting jobs & benefits, selling off assets, and running up debt.

then they leave someone else to pick up the pieces.

same as miliken and the other corporate raiders before them.

Sounds like how 0bama and the democrats have been running the country.

5. If Romney disagrees with this notion, then let him produce his records from Bain

He's made wild claims about jobs but hasn't produced shit to back it up. The American people aren't going to buy his claim of character assassination and that any criticism of his activities at Bain is anti-capitalist and off-limits.

Let's take a look at 0bama's record of creating jobs.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

The lies that the left keeps tossing out about firms like Bain & other venture capitalists are so wrong & won't ever be corrected.  Wonder if the DUmmies ever asked where all that money came from to get the tech boom going in the 90's.

Hey you dipshit primitives, care to explain this?

Quote
Democrats have accepted more political donations than Republicans from executives at Bain Capital, complicating the left’s plan to attack Mitt Romney for his record at the private-equity firm.


Quote
...“They’re going to have a difficult time explaining why they’re padding their war chest with contributions from the same executives that they’re accusing of hurting jobs,” said Brian Walsh, a spokesman for the National Republican Senatorial Committee...

Rasmussen: Bain attacks not working

http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/elections/election_2012/election_2012_presidential_election/may_2012/44_see_romney_s_business_past_as_reason_to_vote_for_him_33_disagree

44% See Romney’s Business Past As Reason to Vote For Him, 33% Disagree

Quote
Democrats have begun criticizing Mitt Romney’s business record, but a plurality of voters view the Republican’s business past as a positive.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 44% of Likely U.S. Voters believe that Romney’s track record in business is primarily a reason to vote for him. Thirty-three percent (33%) see his business career as chiefly a reason to vote against him. Twenty-two percent (22%) are undecided.

How does one extract wealth from a company that is broke?

This is like the rich getting rich by stealing wealth from poor people who, being poor, had no wealth to begin with.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

There's nothing to "buy" because it's obvious this is nothing *but* character assassination and anti-capitalism.

Extracted wealth. Like a lib dentist working on the American taxpayer (the 51% who pay federal income taxes).
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

It wouldn't matter how much trash they say they say about Romney and his record at Bain. It is still better than Obama's will ever be. Obama has no record, which is why he isn't running on any of it. He is distracting from his record, but slandering Romney's. This is nothing but another distraction.

I really can't believe that the DUmmies and Libtards in general think they can win with this strategy.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

My HS football team actually had that in the snap count. Ready, set, go, blue. We kept the count at a steady beat early in the game, later, when the defense was tired, we varied the count and tried to emphasize GO to bait an offsides.

Probably not on the second one, about a third of the population are stupid and/or Leftist enough to think whatever Obama does is good, no matter how many kittens he strangles on live TV.
