you missed the joke.
if thats the worse thing he's ever said, joe biden must be Jesus.
i dont actually think joe biden is jesus.
its weird how statements work
you can make them
and they can just be funny and not true. or you can read into it and get the jist of the metaphor. or cry.

Romney public address: I'm so ethical and caring that I generously gave millions of dollars to charity last year out of the goodness of my heart. Hell, I didn't even claim them on my tax returns!
Romney's actual thoughts: 99% of these poor, ignorant American bastards have no idea what an amended tax return is...God Bless America!

most those clips are when these people were running against him (thos ones of McCain were back in 2007)...of course theyll have discouraging things to say.
Romney is not "in" with the GOP establishment, which is a GOOD thing.
Much like all the GOP governors that have been ousted by "tea party" conservative over the last few years; the GOP does not conservatives.
It's sad if a video like that will convince you not to vote for someone. I like to vote for the candiadate that has the least amount of terrorist/socialist/communist friends. With Romney at 0 and Obama at "ALL OF IT" the choice was easy for me.
Case and Point:
"I hope this doesn't harm Obama, but if I was from the United States, I'd vote for Obama," the socialist Chavez said. "Obama is a good guy ... I think that if Obama was from Barlovento or some Caracas neighborhood, he'd vote for Chavez."

Ya he's even worse, he just flip flops to what every side is pushing him the hardest or the side that will get him votes. He was a liberal republican only because that was the only way to hold office in Michigan. The guys only cares about his pay check (that he does not need) and being in the spot little.

gray areas are resessions. notice the sharp recovery after every recession but two. those two have striking similarities in how they were handled. I'm sure google can do the rest for you and you'll draw the conclusion that i'm a moron and don't know what I'm tlaking about.
Obama is a big flip-flopper too, you just dont hear about it because 1. you aren't knowledgable. 2. the news you do watch doesn't want king george's crown to go to another and therfore doesnt tell you about it.
What's the first promise he made as president? i believe it was to shut down gitmo.
what about remove pork line by line?
what about when he said the president doesn't have authority to authorize miltary attacks without congress?
or his promise to "restore NASA"?
or that marriage is between a man and a woman?
or that he'd remove troops from iraq?
or when he said the attack on liyba was a terrorist attack and then spoke at the UN blamed the "video" again?
or when he said that getting campaign contributions from unions was "special interest" money and frowned on it, but happily recieves union money?
or that he'd lift the Cuba enbargo?
or when he supported decriminalizing marajuana?
ohhhhhhhhh i get it. He's not a flip flopper, he's just a big ******* lier who cant deliver promises.
the above are just what I could think of off the top of my head, imagine if someone wrote a 28 page book just on obama's failed promises and put it on the website: failedpromise.com

Even his minions can smell a dirty flip-flop:
BOB WOODWARD: He is tuned in to his own ambivalence, and in the reporting on this, it's very clear he realizes we face a problem that is not going to go away, that he's got to address. And there are documents that are floating around that I got and notes of meetings, and you see. For instance, on Medicare, he's now campaigning on “We're not going to cut Medicare.” And there are documents where last year he was saying, “Oh, yeah, we have to cut it $250 billion over ten years.”
JOE SCARBOROUGH, HOST: Wait. So you've got a document where Barack Obama is saying we've got to cut Medicare $250 billion, which I think is responsible. But his campaign team is going out there every day saying, “Watch out. We're not going to cut Medicare, but Mitt Romney is.”
WOODWARD: Yeah, and, I mean, it's not just his campaign team. It's the president himself. He says, “We're going to reform and strengthen Medicare for the long haul the right way by reducing the cost of health care - everyone would agree with that - not by shifting it onto seniors.” Well, in his own documents, he says, “We have to do this.” When I talked to him, he realized and said very openly that it's irresponsible to not address this.
SCARBOROUGH: Let's play a clip that you were alluding to. Go ahead and roll it.
(BEGIN AUDIO CLIP)
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, JULY 21, 2011: All the Democrats felt that for Democrats to join with Republicans in anything that could be painted as a Medicare cut when there was a huge difference between Democratic and Republican positions on Medicare generally was bad politics. It's an untenable position to say we're not going to do anything on Medicare and Medicaid when that's one of the biggest drivers of our budget deficit.
(END AUDIO CLIP)
MIKA BRZEZINSKI: Wow! Alright.
SCARBOROUGH: So that was a portion of what the president said when Bob asked him about a meeting on Medicare that he had with Harry Reid and then the Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. He's saying we've got to cut Medicare. We've got to be responsible. Democrats are saying, "No, we can't do that. And now the president, after telling Boehner he would do that, is going out on the campaign trail saying those bad Republicans want to cut Medicare.
By the way, this isn't about this election. This is about what happens after this election. How does this president after saying to the Republicans, “I'm going to cut Medicare,” which, again, is a responsible thing to do, the only thing you can do if you want to save the program, how can this president then get re-elected and go back to Boehner and go, “You know what, I said I'd cut Medicare, and then I demagogued it and attacked you guys in the campaign, but now let’s do a Medicare deal?”
WOODWARD: Well, in his own words he says, “It’s bad politics to not draw a distinction.” Now, there is somewhat of a distinction, in fairness, but he is proposing cutting Medicare.

Currently we have a Republicans in Congress blocking anything that might help the situation. All they know is tax cuts for the wealthy which never seemed to work in the past and continue to blame the poor which is pretty much everybody not rich after weave had little more than a decade of our swing to the national policies put forth by the period of republicans domination of our government between 1994 and 2006 starting in the Clinton Years when republicans took control of congress.
Keep in mind in the 60’s one bread winner per household was the norm. It is not now and I’m not so sure that’s a good thing.
Obama failed to undo the failed Governing of the Bush years, where Bush had all 3 branches of government for 6 of his 8 years in office the only time in our nation’s history where republicans controlled all three branches. While they were in control they did there darndest to prove government is bad. The real solution is not more of the failed Ideas of republican leadership.
