Is Mitt an ignorant Conservative or just a liar?
Posted: Oct 27, 2012
Mitt told a crowd in Ohio that Jeep is going to close down its US plants and move them to China. The benovalent Romney said after he is elected he will do everything in his power to keep those jobs here (unlike Sensata which he has refused to help). Even after he was told his statement was false, Romney repeated it in another city.
The thing is, Jeep has no intentions to close American production. The company put out this response to Romney shortly after news of his lie were made public:
“Let’s set the record straight: Jeep has no intention of shifting production of its Jeep models out of North America to China. It is simply reviewing the opportunities to return Jeep OUTPUT to China for the world’s largest auto market.
U.S. Jeep assembly lines will continue to stay in operation. A careful and unbiased reading of the Bloomberg take would have saved UNNECESSARY FANTASIES AND EXTRAVAGANT COMMENTS.” (I think this is just a nice way of saying Mitt is a liar.)
The Romney lie is even more outrageous considering that JEEP announced this week that it will add a 3rd shift an 1,100 jobs to it Detroit assembly plant, and is investing $500 million to upgrade its Toledo plant.
Perhaps Mitt is only reading the ultraconservative extreme blogs that some conservative posters on this Board are so fond of. Maybe someone could let him know that those blogs are filled with lies, too.

He's lying like a rug. He's famous for going by the #s, which say a majority - of US are too ignorant to realize.nm

The repubs count on the ignorant in this - country to believe SM
[ In Reply To ..]the lies they tell. One of their mantras is "if you say it often enough, they will believe it". Hate to say it works with these low-educated voters.
Sorry, not the Republican mantra. - backwards typist
[ In Reply To ..]Sorry, but that's the Democrats mantra. It's been around quite a few years. Why do you think they keep repeating and repeating old and debunked stories?
I'm trying to figure out whether Romney - Fanatical Hypocrite
[ In Reply To ..]will say anything to get elected, like most politicians, or whether he actually believes the things he says. When he says he's a staunch conservative and then says he's a moderate, does he believe both at their respective times? Can he be both in his own mind? Right now does he have Fox News and MSNBC on split screen while dressed in a tye-dye business suit, his wife on one side of the couch, his husband on the other?
I don't know how politicians do it. How could you go on the campaign trail day in day out for months or years, lying and selling pieces of your soul so us slobs at home can think "This guy wants to help me." The same moaning, screaming, belligerent masses that will tear you apart for every mistake once you're in. It takes me at most a year to come to hate the sitting president.
Election season is grating on me.
Well I know that Obama will say anything to get elected - and the stupid and ignorant will believe him
[ In Reply To ..]Every politician lies. Just the nature of it. Mitt's lies are no worse than Obama's lies.
Mitt still gets me vote because the O years have been a disasters.
Looking forward to the country improving under President Romney.
I can understand that - Fanatical Hypocrite
[ In Reply To ..]It's been a hard 12 years with a great number of disasters. Obama's responses to them have not always been optimal even in my opinion. I can understand wanting change. Also, Obama does lie. A lot. Comes with the job apparently. Politics is in a sad state in general.
The main reason I'm voting for Obama is that I feel he did reasonably well given the issues he faced. I would have been 10 times more radical than Obama and Bush ever were and likely run this country into the ground (even I'm thankful I've never been elected).
Besides the fact that for whatever reason I think Obama did a good job, I also, as one may have guessed, have an extreme dislike for Romney. I just don't feel he'll be looking out for my best interests or those of the people I care about. None of my friends are in the top 1%. Some are even in that bottom-feeding 47%.
One day I hope I get a president that lives up to the hype. I'm also not holding my breath.
"Every politician lies. Just the nature of it." - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Once I figured that out, life got a lot easier and less stressful. Now it's a simple matter of not putting complete stock in anything any of them say, and figuring out which one's platform aligns most closely with my own beliefs. That way, even if no actual progress is made, at least I can reasonably assume there will be no attempts to do harm to the institutions I value.
Obama 2012
Nobody could be worse than Obama... who - lied about dead Americans... fire him !! nm

? How can Romney "help" Sensata? - backwards typist
[ In Reply To ..]He's not the President. He's still a private citizen.
As for the Jeep story, here's the REAL DEAL (and, may I add, the reason you don't read or believe blogs, right or left, without doing your own research/verification):
Romney was apparently responding to reports Thursday on right-leaning blogs that misinterpreted a recent Bloomberg News story earlier this week that said Chrysler, owned by Italian automaker Fiat SpA, is thinking of building Jeeps in China for sale in the Chinese market.
The Bloomberg story, though accurate, "has given birth to a number of stories making readers believe that Chrysler plans to shift all Jeep production to China from North America, and therefore idle assembly lines and U.S. work force. It is a leap that would be difficult even for professional circus acrobats," Chrysler spokesman Gualberto Ranieri said.

Of course I'd get dislikes for posting the truth! - backwards typist
[ In Reply To ..]Gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling. LOL
When you have a large ownership stake, you are in a position - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Romney could have said "I do not want American jobs outsourced to China." Obviously Romney owns(ed) a huge percentage of Sensata since he reported a charitable donation of $405,000 in Sensata stock that he received as “partnership distributions” in 2010 and 2011, according to his tax returns.
Why won't he release his returns from 2000 to 2009? What is he hiding? KB Toy profits, ClearWire?

Why Does Mitt Think His Attacks On Obama WillAug 16, 2012
He’d have us believe that underneath his cool, calm, and collected manner, President Obama is a bitter, divisive, hateful man, bursting at the seams with anger, a desperate attack dog, full of animosity, and willing to say anything to get elected….the underlying tone being he is not at all what he appears to be.

Poll: Americans Say We'd Be Better Off If Mitt Romney Won In 2012Jul 03, 2014
While Obama beat Romney by 4 percentage points, voters say a do-over in the 2012 election wouldn't be a bad thing. "Would Mitt (Romney) have been a better fit? More voters in hindsight say yes," Malloy said. Overall, 45 percent of voters say America would be better off if the White House went to the Republicans in 2012, compared to 38 percent who said we'd be worse off. And because it's World UFO Day, a 2012 survey indicated 65 percent of Americans think Barack Obama would be b ...
