And now a message from sore fucking racist loser Mitt:

Romney Says Obama Only Won Because He Gave ‘Big Gifts’ To Blacks And Latinos

By Igor Volsky

Mitt Romney is attributing his loss in the 2012 election to the “gifts” President Obama gave to minority voters, the Los Angeles Times is reporting. Speaking to donors on Wednesday, the former Massachusetts governor praised his own campaign, but speculated that Obama won because he was “very generous” to his base:

Mitt Romney told his top donors Wednesday that his loss toPresident Obama was a disappointing result that neither he or his top aides had expected, but said he believed his team ran a “superb” campaign with “no drama,” and attributed his rival’s victory to “the gifts” the administration had given to blacks, Hispanics and young voters during Obama’s first term.

Obama, Romney argued, had been “very generous” to blacks, Hispanics and young voters.
He cited as motivating factors to young voters the administration’s plan for partial forgiveness of college loan interest and the extension of health coverage for students on their parents’ insurance plans well into their 20s. Free contraception coverage under Obama’s healthcare plan, he added, gave an extra incentive to college-aged women to back the president. [...]

“The President’s campaign,” he said, “focused on giving targeted groups a big gift—so he made a big effort on small things. Those small things, by the way, add up to trillions of dollars.”

The comments echo the claims Romney made during a private high-dollar fundraiser earlier this year. In the video first published by Mother Jones, Romney argued that 47 percent of Americans are “dependent upon government.”

<...>

UPDATE

The New York Times has more quotes: “Our campaign, in contrast, was talking about big issues for the whole country —military strategy, foreign policy, a strong economy, creating jobs and so forth,” he said. “And by the way, as you’ll hear from Neil, our strategy worked well with many people, but for those who were given a specific gift, if you will, our strategy did not work terribly well.

It has been a week and one day since President Obama kicked Mitt Romney's ass!

Utah Olympics. I see you take lots of government "gifts", and you think that's just fine for you, because you think you are entitled. NOT!
snip:
With the ABC News revelation of the IOC committee bribery scandal, the fate of the 2002 Olympics on U.S. soil, and a predominately Mormon city in the balance, the organizing committee searched for their white horse to salvage not only the Olympics, but Salt Lake City.

When it came to the Olympics, the relationship between Mitt Romney and the LDS church was symbiotic. The LDS church needed Romney to aid in ushering in the Mormon Kingdom on earth while portraying the Mormon faith as a wholesome, mainstream religion. With his eye on the Office Of the Presidency, and just coming off his loss to Senator Edward Kennedy, Romney needed the LDS church and its vast network to finance, support and promote his political aspirations. Nowhere was this more apparent than the Salt Lake City Olympics – the Greatest Show on Earth for the Mormon Church and Mitt Romney – all funded in part by you, the U.S. taxpayer.

Quoting an article by David Baumann, "Romney Helped Salvage Olympics." St. Petersburg Times: Sydney Fonnesbeck, who was on the Salt Lake City Council and a friend of Welch’s, said, “He” (Romney) “just came in and gathered the money that was already (pledged) … He didn’t want to give anyone else any credit. We became nobodies. A lot of us were hurt and angry. It didn’t surprise any of us when he ran home and ran for governor.”

Mitt didn’t save the games. It was a publicity ploy from the beginning to build his platform in politics,
Mitt’s objection was to look as good as he could.

since he himself said he supported parents keeping kids on insurance "to whatever age they might like". Obamacare says up to age 26, Mitt says "whatever age they might like". Maybe until age 80? They "might like" that.

“Well, I’m not getting rid of all of healthcare reform,” said Romney, who’s repeatedly vowed to repeal the Affordable Care Act. “Of course there are a number of things that I like in health care reform that I’m going to put in place. One is to make sure that those with preexisting conditions can get coverage. Two is to assure that the marketplace allows for individuals to have policies that cover their family up to whatever age they might like.”

Waivers to pollute and create economic havoc with vertical business structures; permission to outsource and after bankrupting communities, come back to buy the looted areas for a penny; Freedom to not be held accountable because they are corporations and it's propriety knowledge; freedom to steal the land, water, resources and public infrastructure to line their own pockets and that of their supporters.

I'm sure that's just half the Christmas gifts they've been giving themselves while stealing the money and future of the majority. They point their fingers at those they've robbed and say it was their fault, like every other successful psychopath.

The biggest "gift" of the campaign was Rmoney revealing his lying, flip-flopping, deceit and contempt for the electorate. No doubt, the President was vulnerable and a very solid candidate might well have eked out a victory... but Rmoney wasn't able to. None of the GOP candidates in the primaries would have--because of the Tea Party kool-aid they were forced to drink to get the nomination.

Hey, if they want to believe their own spin and ignore reality for another cycle... Great, they can choke on it!

He and Allan West should have a whine and moan and make lame excuses fest.

So Obama treated average folks with dignity, how dare him.

If there were any justice in this world Romney would have to live poor for a year, see how he likes it.

Just go away Richie Rich.

stamps so that I can celebrate in style.

Seriously, Romney is full of shit. Many of the people who voted for Obama are simply people that don't share Romney's view of the world. A lot of those people that voted for Obama are financially secure, but some aren't - that is why we have an obligation as a society, no one should go hungry and sleep in the cold.

68. How did Mitt find out about the gifts?!?!?!?
Wed Nov 14, 2012, 08:06 PM
Nov 2012

Barack told me that I was special. Apparently he was gifting others?


God damn Mitt Romney is a STUPID PATHETIC AND MORONIC MOTHER FUCKER. Gifts? GIFTS?

I hardly think that making sure people have health care and can collect unemployment or welfare qualifies as a GIFT. But therein lies the problem with Mitt- he didn't give a shit about 47% of the country, and to him allowing them (us) to survive was a gift. That talentless fuckwad doesn't have one ounce of humanity or compassion. Gotta love the GOP.

Fuck you Mittens. Go roam your houses (Or, domeciles that the hard workers of the world GIFTED YOU you miserable prick) and leave our country alone. YOU LOST.

for the Feds. Obama froze her wages. I'm a teacher. Obama sold my profession out to the Gate's Foundation. Both of us voted for Obama. No bribes were offered. None were required. That this pampered little Chickenhawk prick has the hubris to make such a claim is a hoot.

Something offshore that you can drive your yacht to. Or maybe a huge tax break. Or maybe a loophole or two so you can bankrupt a business and put people on unemployment so that you can fund your uber-white, megalomaniacal needs.

But please, no more for black folks. Enough is enough.

The gift we all got was having the President WE wanted voted back in for a second term and you have to go away.

I guess all you're left with is trolling for the office of president of the seceded states...

Fuck him. I have never been more personally satisfied by the outcome of an election as I was when I was watching a stunned, entitled Romney come to grips with the cold hard truth of having his ass handed to him by the people he despised--us.

for college-age women to vote for Obama? It certainly appears that Romney has just insinuated that we women are sluts. Not wise, Mitt, but thanks for reminding us of what Republicans think about females so we'll remember who not to vote for.

109. Something - - - somethng - - - it not was not my fault.
Wed Nov 14, 2012, 09:19 PM
Nov 2012

There is nothing you can do with that. Romney will say it was not his fault for some reason, if you argue with this one, he will just come up with another excuse. It will all be lies anyway, may as well let this one ride. The sane know better, and the Rmoney deadenders will believe whatever suits them anyway (gifts, voter fraud, Sandy, Christie, UN mind control, floridation of water...)

You don't spend trillions on birth control, besides, it isn't free, the insurance companies are paying for it, they just aren't charging separately. Using prosecutorial discrection at ICE costs nothing, it costs less than prosecution. We are saving money by not deporting kids. More people on food stamps costs something, but bottom line the republican recession put more people in a place where they qualify. The best choice is to do fewer republican things to the economy.

that if Romney knew a camera was running those comments would never have been made. I am sure that Romney didn't expect his conference call comments to big donors to become public information. True to what he is, the bastard returned to form in secret.

One day, I hope the person that taped the 47% comments step forward. The nation owe that person a remarkable debt. If not for that video and the fallout from it, the nation could have elected a true bastard to lead it down a dark path from which it surely wouldn't have recovered.

They give TRILLIONS in WELFARE to their big business and MIC buddies and see nothing wrong with that at all!

I think the repigs have a major problem with the working class, people of color, women and gays getting any help at all.

The teapublican party is for rich white racists, they all make that perfectly clear and that's why AMERICA rejected them a few days ago!

Its a new day repigs, GTFO of America if you don't like it!

Thu Nov 15, 2012, 12:01 PM
Nov 2012

What he is saying is that if he had meant any of the evanescent promises he made during the campaign, he would have been clear, consistent, and unambiguous. The fact that there were no clear, consistent, and unambiguous promises made during the campaign means that he wasn't going to be held to doing anything for anybody.

And he is proud of that.

that this horrible man with his horrible wife won't be setting foot in the Oval Office. I think I ended up with a more favorable opinion of George Bush than this dirtbag, and I though Bush was the worst President in modern history.

I won't lie - the thought of Romney in the White House scared me to death. I'm glad we all, collectively, sent this lying asshole and his shrew of a wife packing.
