No, your example between Escobar and you selling a joint doesn't even apply. That has nothing to do with this issue, because implicit in that example is that Obama made a mistake, just a smaller one than Romney.
It has nothing to do with a 'mistake'.. my example is dead on, you're just caught being foolish and you're incapable of moving your radical position forward. This whole nonsense started out because you thought you were being obtuse and cute by bringing 'the King of GM". You were comparing Obama's single restructure with Romney's 10 years of of gobbling up companies and selling the bits and pieces. My example highlights the ridiculousness of that position.. it matters not whether Obama was right and Romney was wrong.. those black and white, hard-line positions are in you, not me. You think neither is wrong,you think both are equal.
answer this question. just the question as it's asked.. not as seen through 'lil mike's radical filter'.. I smoked pot.. even sold a joint once..
Does that me Pablo Escobar? yes or no, it's a simple question.
If I recall (and you'll correct me if I'm wrong!) you supported the GM bailout and the Obama reorganization plan for GM, which led to 21,000 workers losing their jobs. Now, do you think that was a mistake, just not as big as Romney's firing of workers when reorganizing their companies (and I'd like to know if Romney got anywhere near firing 21,000 workers)? Or... do you think Obama's reorganization of GM, including the firing of those workers, were vital to saving the company?
you know full-well that I supported the bailout.. that is not the issue at hand right now so stop trying to change the subject on this line of discussion.
and btw, your rose-colored glasses are foggy if you really feel that in all Romney's time not even 21,000 people lost their jobs.. here's just one example of what Bain did..
Apparently they liked what they saw. Soon after, in October 1993, Bain Capital, co-founded by Mitt Romney, became majority shareholder in a steel mill that had been operating since 1888.
It was a gamble. The old mill, renamed GS Technologies, needed expensive updating, and demand for its products was susceptible to cycles in the mining industry and commodities markets.
Less than a decade later, the mill was padlocked and some 750 people lost their jobs. Workers were denied the severance pay and health insurance they'd been promised, and their pension benefits were cut by as much as $400 a month.
What's more, a federal government insurance agency had to pony up $44 million to bail out the company's underfunded pension plan. Nevertheless, Bain profited on the deal, receiving $12 million on its $8 million initial investment and at least $4.5 million in consulting fees.http://blog.american.com/2012/01/why-is-romney-doing-such-a-lousy-job-defending-his-record-at-bain-capital/He fucked up the lives of 750 people in one fell swoop and then had the gov't bail him out while his company still pocketed millions of tax payer's money when he was bailed out. That's just a single transaction in his 10,000 transactions and 750 investments.. Bain Capital wasn't a 'job-creating' venture, it was a capital venture, they were out to make massive profits, not job creation..
face it, your pick is a shyster plain and simple... but like the Weekly Standard says..
Third, the conversation about Bain must be shut down for the same reason the primary process has continually been declared “over”—because the Republican establishment has decided that Mitt Romney must be the nominee and any attempt to derail that outcome must be quashed. That’s fine. The Republican establishment is certainly entitled to pursue its own interests.
But conservatives do not have a duty to aid them. We will have a series of elections and the voters will decide who the nominee will be. In the course of that process, the voters are entitled to take a long and detailed look at Mitt Romney’s chief stated qualification for the presidency.
too bad you're in lock-step with the 1st paragraph instead of the 2nd.. but you're not really a conservative and you always follow the establishment don't you.
