Bill Kristol: Romney Remarks are ‘Arrogant And Stupid’



Daily Kos: Bill Kristol: Romney Remarks are




Noting that many of the 47 percent of Americans who don't pay income tax are core Republican groups like seniors and active military, Kristol added that "Romney seems to have contempt not just for the Democrats who oppose him, but for tens of millions who intend to vote for him."






As most of you know, Kristol is about as far to the right as anyone can be. Even he is disgusted with Romney's stupidity!

America's Wealthy Republicans Are Stupid Stupid People

And they deserve to have their wealth taken away from them.

That might sound awfully anti-capitalist to some, but it's really not. It's an intervention, and I say what I do actually in hopes of preserving our capitalist economy, because something has gone awry.

Possibly the most important realization about the secret 47% Romney video debacle is that a bunch of people who could afford a $50,000 donation (in the form of dinner theater) were actually expected to believe the line Mitt was selling them. They were expected to buy it, and they did. A fool and his money... so they say.

But really, these people are embarrassingly ignorant. Something has gone seriously wrong with our precious precious capitalist system. The mouthbreathers can afford $50,000 steaks. Survival of the fittest has broken down.


Mitt Romney's team sent him in there armed with a statistic on income taxes and a mythology to explain why he wasn't winning, that much is clear. Whether Mitt is dumb enough to believe it is totally beside the point (and I'm not sure I've ever heard "sincerity" in his voice other than in that video, so I'm inclined to believe he does).

The point however, is that Romney's team somehow felt assured that the wealthy donors in that room WOULD believe it - despite the fact that 1/5th of the 47% are seniors, or that the 47% includes combat vets and poor rural Republican voters - or even for Pete's sake that the idea that 47% of America thinks of themselves as victims seems at all rational. Romney's team knew the wealthy people in that room didn't know better. How could that be?

But if they did know better, the mythology, the "excuse" for why Mitt was losing the election would be dead on arrival.

I'm not sure what's scarier, the idea that the potential next Leader of the Free World actually said what he said to a bunch of aristocrats, or that those aristocrats are stupid enough to believe it and can be expected to be that stupid by the NeoCons behind Romney's campaign.

If America's rich really are as stupid as Romney's team believe they are, and I'm sure the strategists believe what they do based on personal experience, then America is in serious serious trouble.

Survival of the fittest has become an aristocracy of the witless. We need to get capital OUT of the hands of people that deficient in brain cells, via taxes, via any means possible - for the good of capitalism itself.

Typical THIEVES. The Left feels it is ok to steal now?

I love how he said "Wealthy Republicans" are stupid. Welathy Democrats are all real smart I guess and they can keep their money.

- ES ... Don't take anything Tay writes or even quotes seriously since he is a far left wing loser, loon and leech. Not having the energy or the wit to even write this dreadful piece of sophistic and specious garbage, he is merely reprinting it from America's communist newspaper called KOS or some such sh#t. Mind you, Obama might well like this crapolla since he is an acknowledged redistributionist and since he has a disdain for private sector enterprises and for the rich class which he opposes to get the rubes to support him but to which he has now ascended.

Ann Romney defensive on campaign criticism: ‘This is hard’ | TheBlaze.com
The tone comes off as weak.

Ann has reason to crack. Campaigning on a national level day in and out for more than a year is hard. But no one‘s suggesting it’s easy.

And because it‘s hard doesn’t mean the campaign goes without criticism, even from the people rooting for it. Intense scrutiny in the primary is what made Mitt Romney ready for the general election. It’s helpful.

Now’s a good time for Ann to stop complaining.
Poor mittens. Everyone is abandoning ship:

- Ton ... Yes, Romney today is dead even with Obama in the Gallop 7 day tracking poll and down by 1 point in the 3 day Rassmussen tracking poll so obviously "everyone" is abandoning ship.

- Tim Pawlenty has not abandoned his faith in Romney as this quote from the news item you posted confirms, "Mr. Pawlenty said in a statement released by the Romney campaign that Mr. Romney has his full support and continued faith in his vision and policies."

- However, governors of Minnesota are not overpaid and ex governors of Minnesota are not paid at all and unless you are part of Obama's Chicago Mafia of mugs, thugs and slugs and can raid the public treasury with relative impunity then unpaid campaign positions don't put food on the table. This is a terrific opportunity for Pawlenty and he has wisely taken it. However, since it is a non-partisan role, he has had to resign his voluntary advisory position with the Romney campaign. Only a partisan shill would twist this the way you have inasmuch as this very senior position offered Pawlenty is one that would have taken months of discussion and interviews and deliberations and negotiations to fill and would hardly have "suddenly" become available to coincide with some liberal media manufactured and minor drop in the polls for Romney.

- But hey, keep the laughs coming!

You're an American, I shouldn't have to explain to you that it isn't popular vote that elects a President:

Conservative pundits are throwing him under the bus. Senate and House candidates are backing away from Romney. Romney's campaign funding edge is deteriorating. Pawlenty had to agree to not take any position in a Romney Cabinet to get his lobbying job. Hardly a sign of faith in the Romney campaign.

Romney is a dog that won't hunt.

Better luck in 2016, maybe.

Hey TB let them all gloat now and if Obama wins a 2nd term. They haven't been able to act like spoiled children for about four years now so they are taking advantage of it.
