Mittzie likes to boast about his business acumen.

He made the money he didn't inherit by ruthlessly exploiting shareholders, workers, vendors and creditors through Bain Capital, which Mittzie started in 1984.




In an example of the corporate rapine that engorged Mittzie's coffers, Bain bought American Pad & Paper Co for $5 million in 1992.




Mittzie stripped the assets and cash, and employees lost their jobs.




Shareholders were cheated of their investment.




Creditors and vendors ultimately got less than 50 cents on the dollar.




While he was raping the firm, Mittzie charged millions of dollars in so-called management fees.




Was Mittzie the model for "Greed is Good"?

“Romney has an extensive corporate background, looks the part of a CEO, and without question, he would prefer an issues environment focused on anything other than health care reform or the cultural issues on which he’s never inspired trust among conservatives.”


Romney doesn’t want to talk about health care or the fact that he was a pro-choice moderate who supported gay rights and gun control. Indeed, he would just as soon hope people forget he was even a governor.


This is Businessman Mitt, running as a less ridiculous version of Herman Cain.


I think Romney’s biggest problem is that the message brings to the fore his key weaknesses — Romney’s record on jobs is atrocious.

well he is in the debate tonight, upwards of 20 to 30 people will be watching him duck the Obamacare, gaylover etc questions from the Caniac and Co.
 





Just like America’s sweetheart, Gordon Gecko.





The Jesus-jumper vote ain't lookin' good for Mormon Mittzie.




The Bible-thumpers hate Mormons.




They know about the RomneyCare, gay marriage, and gun control Mittzie instituted in Mass.



Mittzie's plan to run on job creation is already doomed, too.


Romney made a Mittload of cash using what’s known as a leveraged buyout.


He’d buy a company with ‘money borrowed against their assets, groomed them to be sold off and in the interim collect huge management fees.’


Once Mitt had control of the company, he’d cut frivolous spending like jobs, workers, employees, and jobs.

He could beat OBama, but he can't beat the religious right and the tea baggers.

Good band name huh
 
Dumb Yankee is gonna have a hard time voting for Mittzie.

This go-round, it’s Mitt Romney (once again) who has been tattooed with the flip-flop label. He has indeed changed his mind on abortion and gay marriage, both of which he previously supported. As governor of Massachusetts, he orchestrated a near-universal health-care model that included mandatory insurance, a position he opposes as part of President Obama’s federal plan.​

Now watch the homo-haters dance....

Romney slashed American jobs as if his career depended on it — and it did.


Complicating matters, during Romney’s only service in public office, his state’s record on job creation was “one of the worst in the country.”


Adding insult to injury, “By the end of his four years in office, Massachusetts had squeezed out a net gain in payroll jobs of just 1 percent, compared with job growth of 5.3 percent for the nation as a whole.”


How bad is Romney’s record? During his tenure, Massachusetts ranked 47th out of 50 states in jobs growth.


Yes, Romney has a simple message: “I’m a successful businessman, I’ll create jobs and fix the economy.”


It also comes with an equally simple response: “Mitt Romney is the anti-jobs candidate.”

Now that the barely-post-teen Staff Sgt. Gaymer has shown his lack of debating skills, back to the issue.

The Republican contender was the governor of Massachusetts from January 2003 to January 2007.




And during that time, according to the U.S. Labor Department, the state ranked 47th in the entire country in jobs growth.


Fourth from last.


The only ones that did worse?




Ohio, Michigan and Louisiana.




In other words, two rustbelt states and another that lost its biggest city to a hurricane.




The Massachusetts jobs growth over that period, a pitiful 0.9%, badly lagged other high-skill, high-wage, knowledge economy states like New York (2.7%), California (4.7%) and North Carolina (7.6%).




The national average: More than 5%.

Let's see how Mittzie the Mass Mormon's 'Mister job creation' mantra fares when people see his record.
