Do you remember that kid in elementary school, the one that somehow skated to the front of the line, and then all his friends asked for “cuts”?
Mitt Romney is that kid, and he’s ready to allow all his buddies to cut in line, but not front-cuts… he’s only willing to allow them back-cuts.
You see, with “front-cuts” you’d have to actually give up something, specifically your place in line. For every person you let cut, you’d go back a space in the line yourself.
RIGHT: While nothing is so pure as a virgin’s love, this should come in as a close second. (CLICK TO ENLARGE)
While many of us can understand loving someone so much that we’d let them go before us, even if it meant pushing the whole line out by one-person, most of us are unprepared for the actions of Romney.
Mitt Romney is only willing to allow “back-cuts”… that is to say, if you’re his friend, you can cut in behind him. He still keeps his place, he loses literally nothing, and the whole rest of the line can go to hell.
Mitt Romney got to the front of the line via unconventional means. He was born into wealth and privilege, and despite what Ann Romney said about them eating noodles and tuna fish, they’ve never known what it’s like to actually earn the American Dream.
The truth is that Mitt Romney, with his $100-million IRA and 13.9% tax rate, has cut to the front of the line. He’s enjoyed massive Bush-era tax cuts, but has failed to produce even one extra job. So what’s that mean?
It means even he doesn’t know how he got to the front of the line, but he’s damn sure going to let all his friends cut in line… well, not “front cuts” because that would mean he’d actually have to give something up, like his place in line.
No, he’s willing to give all his billionaire buddies (and campaign financiers) back-cuts, so they can fall in right behind him, while the rest of us… the honest tax payers, get pushed to the back.
So if I’m wrong, may your wacky Mormon god strike me down… but that hasn’t happened. So tell me, where are the jobs, where are the tax returns, and where is the honesty?
Come on Mitt, you’ve got a serious credibility gap to close between now and the debates… so what are you hiding from?
“Come on Mitt, you’ve got a serious credibility gap to close between now and the debates… so what are you hiding from?”
It’s classic Palin. No specifics is all about the “lamestream media”. By not divulging any specifics prior to the debates, the press can’t nail him down.
Unless perhaps, he has no specifics and no plans and is just a prop for the men behind the curtain.
Making him George W. Bush.
Bring on the debates.
He is going to have to do it before the debates otherwise Obama is gonna call him on it, and rightly so.
