You did forget that(some members of congress) their pact on inauguration day was to make sure that he failed at anything he tried to do, right? Where's the link or, is that just yo opinion? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-A09a_gHJc Very informative faux news. That's all there is? 8 seconds. you are right, I dont like snippets either here is a longer exposure,, pay attention to where he says some have said it was INDELICATE of me to suggest that our top priority should be to deny obama a second term http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gM-1HbK4qU Same person. Faux report. Not true. Taken out of context. lol, dont believe your eyes or ears there is no other context when the speaker defends the statement as opposed to denying he made it,,, The first two years, Barry had the majority.

Out of touch. What does that mean? out of touch to you may not be to others. out of touch to struggling women, to impoverished, to the middle class he has had little connection or history with ANY of those demographics throughout his life he has interest in the profiteers for which it has been his career to remain one of,,, OBama has profited too, but he has not ALWAYS been a profiteer and has not always worked FOR profiteers,,, he has more connection to 'common' obstacles and issues,,

And after he said this "some have said it was INDELICATE of me to suggest that our top priority should be to deny obama a second term" Did you listen to what he said? It was about repealing the healthcare bill, end the bailouts, cut spending, and to shrink the size and scope of government. The way to do that is to not give Obama a second term. Way to spin the 40 seconds of YouTube video you posted.

Everything else would then fall in place?

They are divorced from reality. What gets me is people who vote for these candidates somehow believe that they are being represented. How can a filthy rich person represent a person who is working their arse off and barely keeping their heads above water?. Get Real folks....You are not and probably never will belong to Romneys Club. Its a rich mans club and YOU ain't phucking in it....pure and simple. If you can't bring yourself to vote for Obama, don't bother to vote.

I take it then that you are a comfortably well-off middle class person with a secure job and plenty of promotional prospects. If that is the case then good luck to you......but I doubt it

Actually you just suggested to disenfranchise 50% of the American Voters! yep,lets institute a Branch of the SED in the US! Call it the SEA! Sozialistische Einheits Partei Amerikas! Would make Walter Ulbricht proud! So,if you don't Vote for it,You Don't Vote!

If you can't bring yourself to vote for Obama, don't bother to vote. Obama has millions too, every president does. Second young single professionals pay the highest tax rates and Obama wants me to pay more than I already do and wants to run my country into more debt. You are not American so obviously don't care. Don't pretend to know what we think represents us. I want us to represent us, not people in Washington. At least Romney is more for state government and that is where the actual people vote and not corrupt elected officials.

Romney will finish what GW started and that will be a complete break of the middle class. There will be the filthy rich or the dirt poor and the rich will have complete and utter control in this country. There will be no more legitimate elections because the rich cannot allow the surfs to elect someone who might change their advantage so... It will really suck for those who are not rich enough to be in the Club with the big boys. The American dream will die that day.
