19. He brought his OWN donors from America for that little bus-tour-of-the-Holy-Land cash grab.

that's just shocking to me. that anyone, outside of that creep Adelson, would actually support a guy that takes a fucking bus tour with his DONORS of the Holy Land. It's like a Disneyland ride for billionaires.

Of course, the FEC reports that 60% of Romney's own campaign cash comes from THREE families. Yep.. three. He has no real base of support among the actual voters, but he has at least one billion for attack ads.

I truly hope that the media in America, who is not tethered by their right wing corporate Boards, get to work on Romney, and tell the damn truth about him. Stop portraying hm as some feckless multi-millionaire man of faith who just wants to be President, gosh darn it!

He is the slimiest candidate we've had since Nixon, but I think Nixon actually had some friends. Does Romney have actual friends?? Other than the creepy billionaires that support him because they WANT something??? I mean.. do you think Adelson wants something for his money?? Deregulation for casinos?

EDIT to ADD: WISH I could draw. I'd do a Cash Cab with his donors in it, touring the Holy Land.
