May 9th Prediction: Obama or Romney?

[Admiral Yi]

The Free Marketards will proclaim that Mitt didn't murder jobs and companies, he simply euthanizes them for their own good.  And turning a profit on it?  Well, that's just being resourceful.

Obama took over GM and Chrysler, put 200,000 people out of work and lost $32 billion.

Who comes out ahead on that comparison?

Some of the Bain Boys are Obama fundraisers.

Maybe Romney will buy Europe, wreck it, flip it, and use the profits to pay off the national debt.

Not to mention Romney quit Bain to run the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics before the company went bankrupt.

And of course the whole point of companies such as Bain is to buy up distressed companies, try to turn them around and seel them if you can do so successfully.  Of course that doesn't work all the time.  Socialist idiots of course don't understand that, but ignorant claptrap is the norm on the left.

Luckily the US has many companies like Bain, who perform an essential role in the creative destruction cycle of the economy, which is one of the core reasons for US corporate dominance.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.

We need more Hansy around here.  I miss "socialist idiots" and "ignorant claptrap".

Meh. He doesn't even do insults as well as the commies.

"Socialist idiots" <<<< "running dogs of capitalism"

[PDH]

I knew a gut that got claptrap from a floozy.  Probably she was a Democrat.

Yeah, but it does throw things a bit off balance, what with all the respectful terms you use for those on the right.

Okay.  Here's the first result:

Looks like the actual quote was:

Did you read the whole article? Because it completely contradicts Hans' point.  Politely nodding and smiling while Eric Cantor -- "who brought handouts to the meeting"   ()  rants for half an hour - has got to rank among the top 5 personal sacrifices made in the name of bipartisanship in the last 10 years.

Compare this view of bipartisanship to soon to be Senator Mourdock . . .

But the article confirms that Obama did say those words.

Now I of course do not wish to put words in grumbler's mouth, but it sure seemed as if he was saying that Obama had never said those words.
