"I thought becoming rich and famous would make me happy," Romney is quoted as saying on page 200. "Boy was I right."

[Ostrinski]

Modest guy. Seems likable.

[bcbm]

[00000000000]

Another good ol' boy with a 'can do' attitude who's gonna make the US a nice, clean, family place with as few queers and free women as possible. Amen etc

[Vladimir Innit Lenin]

Someone will be happy.:rolleyes:

But yeah, perhaps I don't remember much aside from the 2008 election, but this year's set of Republicans seem even more odious than usual.

[NewLeft]

Sounds like my kind of guy, Romney 2012.

Why would this help Obama? Obama agrees! If he used this against Romney then he'd be waging class warfare. Romney is anti-war, when it comes to class war.

Actually reading through it he seems less conservative and less assholeish than he is now appearing. Funny how he has to appear even more reactionary than he is. This is by no means a defense of him, I just find it kind of funny.



“Asked about affirmative action and discrimination, Romney said that theredefinitely was a ‘glass ceiling’ holding back women and minorities and that ‘I believe that public companies andfederal agencies should be required to report in their annual 10K the number of minorities and women by incomegroup within the company so we can identify where the glass ceiling is and break through it.’”

When Kennedy called him ‘multiple choice,’ Romney demanded an extra rebuttal. He revealed that a close relative died of an illegal abortion years ago and said, ‘Since that time, my mother and my family have been committed to the belief that we can believe as we want, but we will not force our beliefs on others on that matter, and you will not see me wavering on that

Romney Mistakenly Invoked Trademark Castro Phrase “Patria O Muerte, Venceremos” As Belonging “ToA Free Cuba.”

“People chuckled when presidential candidate Mitt Romney, a Mormon raised in Michigan andelected in Massachusetts, bungled the names of Cuban-American politicians during a recent speech in Miami. Butwhen he mistakenly associated Fidel Castro’s trademark speech-ending slogan – Patria o muerte, venceremos! –with a free Cuba, listeners didn’t laugh. They winced. Castro has closed his speeches with the phrase – inEnglish, ‘Fatherland or death, we shall overcome’ – for decades.”

In 2005, Romney Praised Plan By Venezuelan Government And Hugo Chavez To Provide Americans With Subsidized Oil.

“The first deliveries of cheap Venezuelan heating oil to cash-strapped Massachusetts residentswill not arrive for weeks, but the deal involving President Hugo Chavez already is generating political heat on bothsides. … Tensions have run high recently between Bush and Chavez, a self-styled socialist who assailsAmerican-style capitalism and has branded Bush a ‘madman.’ … Venezuela’s Citgo Petroleum Corp. promoted itsplan to offer 12 million gallons of cut-rate oil this winter with the headline: ‘How Venezuela is Keeping the HomeFires Burning In Massachusetts.’”

At The Time, Romney Pronounced Himself “Delighted” With Plan, Declined To Criticize Chavez.
“GovernorMitt Romney yesterday hailed the accord, though he declined to discuss Chavez. ‘I’m delighted to hear we’ll beable to purchase oil at a lower price than the market for our citizens,’ he said.”
(Raja Mishra, “Fuel Pact Defended At LocalSigning,”
The Boston Globe
