Mitt Romney: All-American Liar
Posted by Big Eddie | Friday, October 05, 2012

Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

Mitt Romney took a page right out of George Bush's playbook and flat-out denied proposing a tax cut for the wealthy. If that's not bad enough, Romney went further and lied about issue after issue. Big Eddie is here with the truth. Watch it.

Mr. Ed, once again, sir, thank you and your crew, and msnbc companions for all of your honorable, difficult and time consuming Life's Work.



Just a few thoughts I'd like to share with Mr. Romney regarding his, and his Republican Party's and supporters, Fatalistic Future Vision for our Great Nation.



Shhh! It’s not polite to talk about the unbridled narcissistic Profiteering taken for granted within unbalanced Malevolent Capitalism. Why unbalanced? Capitalism everlastingly rocks back and forth (like every other Thing and every One else upon the face of this great and beautiful Planet) Balancing between Benevolence and Malevolence. Productive Creation and Destructive Nihilism; and all of the shades and levels in between.



Within the Globe’s Profiteering Corporate Feudalistic Empires, one of the burgeoning Ruling Entities are the Insurance Companies (Corporations). What do they ensure (insure)? Long armed, multi-faceted Profits for the Elitist Few - and a few meager benefits for a few of the Many.



Perhaps We the People should take time to pause and chew our cuds on the supposition that when it comes to a Nation’s (and an Individual’s) Health and Education - Profiteering should not be a Consideration - an underlying Motive. Especially when Malevolent Capitalism Rules the Day.



Health Care and Education Care should both be defended and protected by Societal Ethics and Universal Care. It should Benefit the Many - not just the fortunate Few.



Why? Because without Affordable and Equitable Health and Education an Individual Citizen (in today’s World) cannot thrive or sustain themselves (and/or their Loved Ones) effectively. Sky rocketing (profiteering) costs, which are comfortably met and sustained by the Wealthy (or fortunately well insured), make ‘getting ahead’ (whatever that means) by the dwindling Middle Class and the escalating Poor almost impossible.



This is one of the many Realities of Malevolent Capitalism (unconscionable Profiteering, narcissistic corporate, legislative, executive and judicial greed, hubris, etc…) which has unfortunately grown in bullfrog leaps and bounds. Because We the People allowed deregulations and the dismantling of Ethical Behavioral Economic and Societal checks and balances systems, which in turn allowed the exponential growth of Malevolent Capitalism.



What sense does it make to educate a Citizen and then financially and socially burden that same Citizen up to twenty years of their most productive Life years with interest hungry educational loans to repay? It’s counter-productive to the Citizen - to the Nation - but not to the Profiteers, Corporations, Laws (created by our Nation’s well paid lawyers, lobbyists and politicians) and Banks, all supporting rising costs (which fill their coffers) and heavy handed loans encumbering much of a Citizen’s Life, and their struggle to ‘get ahead’. Get ahead of what? To what?



What sense does it make to Educate a Citizen and have that Citizen honestly and doggedly work hard toward Middle Class or higher social status only to lose their home - their feathered Nest Egg - their hard earned Middle Class social status to financial impoverishment (and Daily Life impoverishment) to a bout with poor Health? To a bout with unexpected unemployment caused by the Profiteers antics of fun ‘n games with Wall Street and the Global Economies?



Why, in an (so called) Enlightened Society do We the People allow poor Health to slap - to slowly beat a Citizen down into the depths of backbreaking Poverty?



Why do We the People allow the Profiteers (the Corporations and Banks, etc…) who willingly took Our (the Americans) Tax monies (which were supposed to be revitalized and returned to We the People to support the growth of jobs and small businesses) to continue their Social and Economic irresponsibility and unaccountability?



We allowed them (the elitist Few) to con all of Us into depleting Our National (and Familial) coffers in order to increase the booty of their Global Feudalistic Economic Empire! We the People helped them to correct their mistakes, only to be further impoverished and disempowered! What Nonsense!



Malevolent Capitalism is detrimental to every Citizen - every Nation. But works quite handily for the Lives and financial Health of Profiteers, corporations, lawyers, lobbyists, politicians and bankers Globally. Their 1% has nothing much (or less) to worry about. Their 1% hold themselves above the ordinary riff-raff - the unlucky Middle Class and Poor peasants, serfs and slaves of the 1%’s Empire.



When will We the People - the Citizens - the People’s of Every Nation stop supporting such antiquated and debasing Economic and Societal systems? When will We the People put Our Minds, Bodies and Souls together to restructure Societies, and their Economies, into more Equitable and Sensible Entities for All? Which Benefit Everyone?



What makes a Plumber’s job less important than a Politician’s? Money. And the Value Reality We the People choose to give Money.



What makes a Teacher’s vocation less important than a Football Player’s? Money. And the Value Reality We the People choose to give Money.



Why have We the People given Money a Value Reality of such utmost Life importance?



Why have We the People become worshippers of Profiteering and Profiteers? The very Entities which (and who) hold the heels of their heavy Financial/Societal Boots unmercifully, and roughly, against We the People’s scrawny little necks?



Why do We the People continue to perpetuate, and sing the praises of an Economic system and Societal Culture which continues to oppress more and more Citizens, when We the People can deliberate and put into Action other more Enlightened Choices?



Such is the Nonsense of Consequence, and the Consequence of Nonsense!

What I am trying to say: in my opinion debates are the time to set the facts straight, set the record straight, brag up success, point out contrasts, define yourself, define your opponent & yes that means emphasizing things many of us already know about..........you only have 2 minutes so you have to find a way to do all of it at the same time in the same few sentences & make it stick!!!!!!!!!!............the way Clinton spoke during Democratic Convention style.....
Mr. Fargo

typo not a lecture or a class
Mr. Fargo
10/6/2012 12:32:10 PM
In Debates you want to talk about success & Mitts contrasts & hammer away at things that many of us already know about...........its now a lecture or a class............it is a debate!!!!........that is the time to hammer away at those very things..........
Mr. Fargo
10/6/2012 12:29:04 PM
I expected the debate to be about the Big 3, the auto industry, job growth, education, shared sacrifice, the Ryan Budget, fighting for the middle class, Successes such as getting Bin Lauden.....& etc.........I still want to throw things at the TV!!!!.............I can go on & on & on....
Mr. Fargo
10/6/2012 12:23:41 PM
@ President Obama............please talk about your success & how Mitt Romney & the GOP's vision & platform is different & moves us backwards not forward.............go on offense while attacking Mitt when you are talking about your achievements.............do it all at once in the same sentence........stop this giving Mitt Credit for sharing your views stuff.............a debate is not the time to build up your opponent...........you don't go into a job interview & brag up the guy in the waiting room who is next to be interviewed.............you talk about why you are the one fit for the job..................
Mr. Fargo
10/6/2012 12:08:07 PM
Mitt Robotney........either a Robot or Triplets...maybe Dissociative Personality Disorder?

When it comes time to debate: the way to stay on offense is to chew gum & walk at the same time.........attack Mitt for his own words & own stance...Let Detroit go bankrupt..........while tooting your own horn about how President Obama saved millions of auto jobs & the ripple effect.........then when Mitt tries to deny it..........you attack him for his pattern of playing victim to his own words............seems to be a pattern............when you talk about success of steady job growth........attack the opponent by saying success happened with no help from the GOP.......the country moved forward even though their number one mission was to defeat him.......through roadblocks, obstruction and record filibusters............attack by against what they used to be for..............& etc...............define yourself while defining them............when Mitt claims he worked with Dems as Governor..........let him know that he had Dems willing to work for the American people who's number one mission wasn't to defeat him.............& etc.....prepare to debate lies............prepare to debate one of several Mitt Romnies..........define the real Mitt Romney while defining yourself!!!!!!!!!!!.........don't forget to rattle off Mitt you said this on Tuesday, then on Wednesday you said this, now U are saying this............so which is it going to be today?????
Mr. Fargo

one of many typos...Know
Mr. Fargo
10/6/2012 11:43:45 AM
Ya that is a silver lining Ron "27 lies" "thats nearly one lie per minute to defend" & I agree Linda that in the long term Romney is at the end of his rope................like I posted prior to the debate...........Mitt has a problem & that is which Mitt will show up for the debate............now that Mitt defined in front of a large national audience which Mitt he chose to be this week..............what happens if he contradicts himself in front of that same audience.........my advice for Pres Obama & Biden is to define the real Mitt during the debates & stay on him...........take control & be in control of the conversation at hand.......no what he said, when he said, where he said, how often he said & be specific & detailed using simple terminology.............
