It looks like Romney will be the republic candidate for president. They couldn't have found a better poster boy for the top 1%.

Not only did he pay just 13.9% in taxes-- he's maneuvered a way to give his kids 100 million without paying a gift tax, something the rest of us can't do.

From economist and tax expert David Cay Johnston:

"The Romneys gave $100 million to their sons and paid not one penny of gift tax. They were able to take assets they have that are producing enormous income and, under the law, give that money to their children and not pay any taxes on it."

Did our Founding Fathers escape the wealthy and powerful aristocracies of Europe just to start another government for the rich and powerful in America? Is this growing plutocracy what they meant by one man, one vote?

The repubs are the party for the rich, bought and paid for.

You can vote for R. Paul, he is the best candidate, moderate, honest, not homophobic, peaceful, tolerant. There are no better candidates, than he is. And he is great politician.

Well, we are in the process, let's see how it works it's self out (there are less than 5% of the delegates won). Maybe it will be one of the 4 we see and maybe it won't; but we are early in this process. I don't want the liberal news media and all the talking heads to tell us who. If Romney bubbles up, well he does; but let's see. Palin is right, let's keep it going.

Why ?
Because President Obama stands head and shoulders above any of the top 3 repub candidates.

Because he's been able to withstand 3 years of unfathomable abuse from the repubs, who started attacking him in an possible way one day after his election; and he's done so with humor, equanimity, and dignity.

Because he's finally begun to fully support the 95% of us who do not have the lobbying power of the top 5%. Obama knows that the big corporate powers and the super-rich fat cats will now try to destroy him by funding the repub super-pacs with millions of dollars, but he seems to realize that doing the right thing is morally and economically correct for our country.

And the majority of us are going to re-elect him, and we'll also take back the House. And we're going to get rid of the renegade repubs in our states who are trying to destroy the majority of us for the benefit of the elite.

Because most of the electorate are not complete idiots.

If you want the government to tell you what you can and can't eat......

If you want the government in your organic garden........

If you want more drones killing innocent people than under Bush.

If you want the USA military in more foreign countries than under Bush.

If you want to drive more of the rich to move out of the USA.

If you want Monsanto in control of your food.

If you want more companies to leave the USA in three years than in decades before.

If you want the price of food to go thru the roof.

If you want less jobs.

If you want to see Canada sell all of its oil to China.

If you want to see Mexico and south American sell its oil to China.

If you want to see Mexico pumping the same oil out of the Gulf that BP was pumping.

If you want to see the USA with the highest taxes in the world with the least benefits..

If you want a heath care system designed to fatten the pharmaceutical and insurance industry.

If you want to pay 10 times more for your healthcare insurance than I do.

If you want more freedoms striped from you..

Yes the oslama legacy will live forever........ROTFLMAO

Yes because he is standing on corporate Americas shoulders......

The republicans have done nothing compared to how the liberals treated Bush....

Support the corporations is what he has done.......Look at what he gave Monsanto.

He has taken as much cop orate money as any president but that is ignored as oslama told his sheepoles to ignore that..

Majority........
Do you really think that 30% is a majority???.....ROTFLMAO
Ya might want to look at the poll numbers........

Now that fast and furious is hitting the news with the law suit......

And oslama's failure to appear in court.......

Along with the huge exodus of the rich and corporations from the US that oslama raised the fee from ZERO to 450 dollars to renounce your citizenship......

Bottom line is that the vast majority of corporations and business owners will not start investing in the USA until oslama is booted.....

If by chance he did win the retraction of the economy would take us from recession to depression in a matter of months......

Did Romney break the law? Why should money that you give to someone be taxed merely because it changes hands? Should then you also be taxed on every gift you give your children at Christmas, birthdays?, etc.?

Don't be so jealous. By your own admission you are part of the 1%, be happy with yourself.

acording to liberals yes.......

They believe that if you earn a million dollars and pay 400k in taxes with 600k left over that if you give that moony to someone taxes should be paid again.

They also believe that if you take that money and invest it into a company in the USA that creates jobs and they pay you for your helping the American economy that you should pay taxes on that money again also......

Or you can invest your money in canada and rest assured that you will never be taxed more than 15%.

Or you could invest that money in mexico and take advantage of programs here that will guarantee you pay ZERO taxes for helping out Mexico....

Liberals want to punish you for helping out the USA and most other countries will reward you for helping them out..........

They just prove over and over that liberalism is a mental disease.......

Unfortunately this is farther from the truth as corporate consolidation and monopolization have increased at an alarming rate under his regime .

Why are we so testy today?

is it because the economy is improving?

Is it because the market has reached 2008 levels?

Is it because Ron Paul does not stand a chance in hell to be President of the US?

Is it because Romney makes a total ass of himself every time he speaks?

Is it because the reality is beginning to set in that Obama will be a shoe-in in November...? LOL

Not at all...laughing my arse of at moronic liberals..........LOL

Economy here never took a dip.

Market here has out performed the US market for more than the last 10 years.

Everyone knew he would never make it..........SO..........LOL

Only to moronic liberals. The rest of the world does not think so..........He is to far left for me....

Really makes no difference to me but if by chance he does the economy will implode days after the election.,

A few business people are starting to invest in the USA but the vast majority will not until he is gone.......
So all that would mean is the economy going from recession to depression..........

But moronic liberals listen to the economy slayer and his news on jobs..........LOL

But what they fail to under stand is the millions on unemployed that were taken off the rolls and are not counted any more to make the unemployment numbers look better........ROTFLMAO
