And he worked with Ted Kennedy on no child left behind maybe he shouldn't have compromised on that one.

Just to be clear,no one on the left is against success or personal achievement....not that I am suggesting that this is what you are trying to sneak past us.

I'm not trying to sneak anything past, Mike. Are you denying that Romney's time at Bain, and the personal wealth he built in that time, are held against him? That resentment of the wealthy is part and parcel for many on the left these days? Surely some on the left are still fighting the damn bedbugs they brought home from the Occupist campout, and cursing the Koch brothers for causing it all? No? Ok. Cheaper than therapy.

Rationalize it to your heart's content, disagree with my statement all you like. Maybe enough time has passed that the subject won't automatically get the thread tossed, and I'll link you up to the video of the President dissing brains and hard work as the core of success, in his, "you didn't build that," speech.

This election should be about a view that Americans need opportunity and jobs vs one that says not only do we need to rob Peter, to give Paul a handout, but that Peter deserves to get mugged anyway.

Gee, and Jeffry Imelt CEO of General Electric gets a "pass" I guess. How much taxes did he and General Electric pay last year? Anyone know?
One thing you have to admire about Romney is that he received a large inheritance from his father which he promptly gave to charities. *All of it!* Not too many in "Washington " that would do that!
Ted Kennedy wouldn't even pay for his own drinks in a bar.
Ha! Bill Clinton got much more applause than ....what's his face did!
They said on the news that he really doesn't like Obama at all.
He thinks he should be carrying his luggage.
I wonder what he thinks about Joe Biden?
He probably wouldn't even let Biden carry his luggage.
Bill's a good speaker but as everyone knows he's a pathological liar. And very likely a sociopath.
Every other sentence he said had holes in it and could easily be torn apart.

Which he didnt recieve until when? After he made his millions?

Nor was there any information about George Romney's financial legacy in the many obituaries for the Michigan luminary, who died in 1995 at age 88.

By 1995, Romney had already led Bain Capital for more than a decade, where shrewd investments made him millions.

In 1992, I volunteered with Bill Clinton's campaign. I knocked on doors, hauled shit around, and was somebody they could call at the last minute. If I left fingertip bruises on the ankles of a few other volunteers with cute asses, well, I had a feeling then that Bill wouldn't mind, and history has proved me right on that. I even bit my tongue very hard when he put Al Gore, a politician I personally loathe only behind Nixon, on the ticket, and kept working to get him elected.

Times and life had changed by '96. I just voted for him.

When the Lewinsky thing broke, I had a little fun with it, called a spade a spade, and figured that a little slap on the wrist was the best way to handle the lying under oath thing.

I'm sometimes told this makes me a Clinton hater.

Bill Clinton will be speaking at the DNC this week, and that's the speech I find myself most looking forward to. I've seen a report that Bill will be making the nomination speech, immediately before the President takes the podium, but can't find the final schedule of speakers to confirm that yet.

He may just take his moment in the spotlight, feel that old energy briefly, go word for word off the script he's given, and step back meekly for the "real" star of the show. Or he might steal the show. He could even toss a monkeywrench if so inclined.

Will Bill behave?

No one died.....when Clinton lied........bushie.

Even if Mittens told Pops and his "informed friends" straight to their bare faces,that he`d flat out export more and more American jobs (to make a few millionaires into to billionaires).....weakening our economy further.......they`d STILL vote for Mitt.

There`s really not that much to discuss with folks like this.

Ya know my deal with that Owner. Respect the office if not the man. You can bash all his policies you want, you can call him every name in the book... but his name is Bush.

He lived off his inheritance while going to college and grad school. His father gave him a large quantity of stock which he sold off to pay his living expenses. Those are the hard times Ann talks about when she wats to show Mitt and she have lived normal lives.

He might have lived off his grandfathers inheritance. His father didnt die until 1995.

On this I agree with you 1,000 %(which really isn't all that much more than 100%

)
Owner and Moon (speaking of those who could be said are from our side of the aisle)just give license to those who would denigrate the current holder of that office.
One can not claim to have respect for the position and the office while denigrating those holders that they disagree with,whether that disagreement is politically or morally rationalized.
You either respect the office or you don't ...it really is that simple.

Hiding criminality behind the solemn oath of office is what earned bush his reputation ,his record and every bit of his disrespect.

He "lowered the bar", as our once-Clinton-supporter-turned-bushie put it recently and doesn`t even deserve my shoe, much less my attention.

What I don`t get are those trying to bring us back there.

Sorry(to you and Mike) if I sound a bit terse when I spank them.

Depends, could be a gift. Inheiritance sort of requires somebody to cakk, or a living will.

A loan.. a gift... a present. Inheritance means someone died.
