Why did Romney apologize to the 47% ? It's the truth.?

The majority of people are too worried about who the next American Idol winner will be rather than to actually fact check any of the politicians statements on their own, they simply believe the lamestream media like AP or Yahoo News when they come up with their bogus liberal fact check.

For one thing, the 47% includes veterans, handicapped, retired, etc. So you are saying the entire 47% are getting money free. This is a lie and I resent the fact that you call these people (some of who have defended our country) scumbags and freeloaders. Most of these people have paid their dues and have paid taxes like anyone else has or more.

As for the welfare recipients, there is a big misconception about how long they can receive funds. The recipients, even with children, must attend classes, get diplomas, take training, or get a job or the MONEY IS CUT OFF. Romney needs to apologize for his stupid statement and you need to apologize for yours. My mother is on disability now after working her life away and paying taxes. Her insurance does not pay for all of her dialysis bills; she is responsible for 20% which is quite expensive. There are others in the same predicament and have been since BEFORE Obama was elected so don't you dare try blaming this on Obama too.

Why do they keep telling us that the jobless rates are down because people gave up?

Gave up what? Eating? Paying the electric bill?

They might have gone back to school, or become part of the underground economy, but the fact is they are't looking for jobs and should not be counted as unemployed. If you've gone back to school you aren't available for full time work.

The welfare rolls aren't up by the seven or so percent they claim aren't working either.

Careful with info like this. Next you'll be tabulating the percentage of income that American citizens below the poverty level actually pay in taxes, even if they don't pay any income tax. That kind of knowledge and understanding is unamerican. Just ask the GOP.

The funny story is, Dumbocrats would have you believe that what he mentioned was offensive. The media would have us consider it has cost him the identical election that they already had him dropping of their polls. In truth, what he said was once taken out of context and most likely true. This nation is hopelessly divided.

18% of American's live on government stipend, and pay no taxes. We call those people the retired. According to Romney, once you stop producing for the government, you are a free loader, despite the fact you paid into your SS pension fund your entire working life.

By Romney Apologizing for that, he also inadvertently insults all the right wing loons who immediately came out defending him for his statements. Because him admitting he was wrong for that, shows the people who thought it was a good statement were also wrong.

He accidentally included Veterans and White People when he only meant to include Blacks.

Did Obama apologize to the 99%?

No Mormon bigamist carpetbagger in the white house, 4 more years.
