Ann Romney Has No Dignity?

To me it's not about how much money they have, but how they grew up does SOMETIMES affects there understanding of poverty or what it takes to climb out of it! They also can fail to understand what it is like to have no safety net.

So, do you believe parents help relate their experiences to their kids? Do you think the kids pick up anything from that?

Romney was born to American parents living in the Mormon colonies in Mexico; events during the Mexican Revolution forced his family to flee back to the United States when he was a child. The family lived in several states and ended up in Salt Lake City, Utah, where they struggled during the Great Depression. Romney worked in a number of jobs, served as a Mormon missionary in England and Scotland, and attended two universities in the U.S. but did not graduate from either. In 1939 he moved to Detroit and joined the American Automobile Manufacturers Association, where he served as the chief spokesman for the automobile industry during World War II and headed a cooperative arrangement in which companies could share production improvements. He joined Nash-Kelvinator in 1948, and became the chief executive of its successor, American Motors Corporation, in 1954. There he turned around the struggling firm by focusing all efforts on the compact Rambler car. Romney mocked the products of the "Big Three" automakers as "gas-guzzling dinosaurs" and became one of the first high-profile, media-savvy business executives. Devoutly religious, Romney presided over the Detroit Stake of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

How can you be this man's child and not be instilled with a solid work ethic? That work ethic is evident in the fact that Romney excelled at Harvard. In the fact that Romney excelled in the workplace etc...

Just because a parent has money doesn't mean Romney had a trust fund/maid/nannies etc... as all you liberals are proclaiming he had when their kids were young. he did not have to struggle financially, his fathers hard work saw to that. His father paid for school and helped with their home purchase.

Oh I forgot to come back to this thread. The fact is that Damo said that Eisenhower was the last president who wasn't wealthy in the manner Romney is.

Sorry, but 240k a year ain't wealthy, you and I both know it, give me a break do we have to go 50 rounds on this obvious bs too? I'd rather just play ping pong and maybe smash one into your shoulder when you aren't expecting it.

Funny, but isn't Obama proclaiming that in todays dollars $250k IS wealthy? Didn't he want to raise taxes on those earning more than $250k?

Also... you are comparing Obama's wealth from 2000... what was he worth when he ran in 2008?

Who said he didn't have a strong work ethic?
Again; Romney is a brilliant man, there is no doubt. He was governor of my state, the only truly egregious act he commited was not running for re-election.
Please don't try to say he doesn't come from priviledge though, you just make yourself look foolish.
Also, don't try to sell that Ann can relate to common women, it simply isn't true. End of story.

that puts you at least in the top 10%, if not 5%.......

it like people complaining that Warren Buffet pays less taxes than his secretary, as if the personal secretary of one of the richest men in the world is not herself in the top 5%........

It happens all the time that parents do everything right, teach all the right lessons, yet the kid still becomes a slouch.

Do you see that with George and Mitt Romney?

I belive Romney is a hard worker, and that he learned that from his parents.

He seems to lack much of a concept of what it can be like to live in the world without a safety net. He seems to belive that anyone can pull themselves out of poverty without help, and that those who dont deserve there lot in life. He does not seem to comprehend the struggles, for example, a family can go through when they dont have the choice to have a parent stay home with the kids. He does not seem to understand what it would have been like for his wife to have faced MS without insurance or money backing the treatment.

Ok, now do you believe Romney became a slouch Jarod? or do you think he picked up on that work ethic? do take a moment to actually try thinking on this before you answer. It may (though doubtful) help you avoid looking retarded again.

What you really mean is he does not support the same policy positions you do. Say Romney came from absolutely nothing. Broken home with no money etc. and accomplished what he has accomplished. It would be pretty hard to argue that he didn't know what struggle was or what it takes to make it in America but you still wouldn't support him based on his policy positions. He would probably be accused of turning his back on people who were once like him.

I base those opinions on his political stances, he does not seem to care about indigent and how they will get access to health care for example.

If that were the case I doubt he would hold the political views he current espouses, but who knows what he really belives.

Try to elaborate Jarod... what political stances are you referring to?

you example of health care is quite comical Jarod. Or are you completely ignorant of Romneycare?

Do elaborate on your other bullshit opinions Jarod... just stating something doesn't make it so. You asked me to back up the fact that Romney did well at Harvard. Which was quite easy to do. Yet here you are, being asked to provide evidence to support your opinions and you cannot do so?

Why is that Jarod? Is it because you know you can't?
