Former Romney Aide Admits GOP Rooting Against Economy
posted by Ed Staff | Friday, June 15, 2012

Rob Gray, a former Senior Advisor from Romney's days as Massachusetts Governor admitted "they’re rooting against the economy somewhat because they think that, you know, the short-term pain of, you know, the next four months is much better than having additional four years of pain under Obama."

So apparently, saying things out loud that you'd be better off keeping to yourself is not only a Romney trait, but also a habit of his campaign staff too.

Don't forget Romney has been running for president for 8-years.

The Fact is the Record Filibusters by the Republican Party are not because of opposition to President Obama's policies, but because of who President Obama is "his race"........and I can support this conclusion because majority of what is being filibustered are traditionally supported by the Republican Party & are for the good of the country...........it is a fact that even former Republican Presidents passed this same type of policies in the past with bipartisan support.....................the GOP are only trying to make sure the first black President doesn't get a second term & the economy & your livelihood is just collateral damage..............for someone like Ron Christie to imply the race card defense on Ed's Show is both predictable & bogus................

The Radical Right Wing Supreme Court Citizen's United decision basically allow corporations to use money as speech in any way they want to anonymously without being subject to the legal responsibility that goes along with actually real speech...........money does the taking anonymously.......I see that as a problem that takes away from the rights of the person on the receiving end...........they can buy a smear campaign & walk away without any legal repercussions....................

The Radical Right Wing Supreme court Citizens United decision made sure that Corporations foreign or domestic can have the same protections as free speech, but not the same responsibility that goes along with it..........the Partisan Radical decision allows Corporations to run & hide from their free speech anonymously when their money does the talking!!!!!!! How is that equal??? Which is it money or speech???? How can it be both when money speech has no responsibility as real speech?????? If money speech smears you without transparency.............??????......get it???

Mitch McConnell & the Republican Party believe that Corporate Political Donors foreign or domestic have the right to Free Speech, but do not deserve to be subjected to public scrutiny or backlash for what they say when their money does their talking!!!!!!!! So let me get this straight according to the GOP corporations are people, their money is free speech yet they don't have to be responsible for that free speech & they can hide behind their money??????????????????????????????????????????????????
