New one going around Facebook [View all]

For the past week or so I've noticed this message:

"Apparently I'm supposed to be more angry about what Mitt Romney does with HIS money than what Obama does with MINE."

I've made simple comments about sending money overseas doesn't make me, the voter, feel confident that he is confident in the American financial sector. I've also made the comment that if he took some of that money that might be floating around overseas and invested here stateside, it would create more jobs. (I'm not going into the other charges-that will lose them.)

Anyone, in the past week, one has deleted the comment, one has ignored the comment, and one has now blocked me.
