Well this is unfortunate . After the Great Mommy War (Redux) of Two-Thousand-And-Twelve, which pitted the Sanctity of Motherhood and America against one lesbo (and Barack Obama), and which was second only to the Great Wonkette Commenter Riots for the year's most devastating skullfucking and bloodshed, it seems General Romney may have turncoated his own once-firmly held ideals and beliefs! You see, it turns out that he too thinks that stay-at-home-moms have never worked a day in their lives -- at least if they are on welfare. Then all of a sudden motherhood is no longer the holiest calling and most important job in the universe! So does that make Ann Romney a
"Some of my best friends employ working mothers. Preferably as 'independent contractors', or part-time employees, or off the books entirely ... or better yet, in China."
They are the job creators, my friend, and if we just reduce their confiscatory 15% tax rate, they will bring these wonderful fruits of capitalism to even more women.
"destroying companies for $$$ like he did doesn't produce anything. "
It produces mansions (with car elevators!) And it creates jobs for the stable boys who attend to your dressage horses. You just don't understand that sweet, sweet 1890's-style capitalism.
The unholy alliance between clueless red-state voters and America's plutocrats has to be broken before any real progress can be made. Sadly, the fact that the OWS protestors are scruffy, disorganized, and largely inarticulate (and the fact that Obama is black) makes it difficult for Democrats to drive in what should be an easy wedge. (How do you reach the numbskulls who prefer to vote for the white guy who promises to make the trains run on time?)
Too many of the 99% have yet to realize that the game's been rigged against them for the last 20 years. The younger ones, with crappy jobs, no future, and no chance of putting their kids through college, will be the first to wise up, and those are the people Obama has to target.
<i>&quot;...I want the individuals to have the dignity of work.&rsquo;&rdquo;</i>
Mitt hasn&#039;t had a real job since 2007. He has lost all his dignity.
While we&#039;re on the subject ... if work imbues a person with valuable dignity, Romney should support a higher tax rate for non-wage income. That would encourage those &quot;investors&quot; to get real jobs ... for the tax break.
So Romney&#039;s latest talking point has been totally contradicted by something he said only a few months ago? YOU DON&#039;T SAY?!?

Hmm .... you know who else, who also knew too much, committed suicide in a garden shed?
Just submit the post with the url, then go back and edit.

Teabagger heads are exploding, right? Right? *crickets*

Not just anything ... but a pineapple would do.

As long as it&#039;s LEGAL, who cares about ethics?
And it&#039;s the most work of all when your youngest child is 26.
I&#039;m not going to have the dignity of retirement but I&#039;d at least like the dignity of a living wage.
