Romney & Me

Mitt Romney is an honest American patriot from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

He pays all the taxes that he is required to pay by law. Not a dollar more. Just like you.

I won't spoil the surprise. Check out the Romney Tax Calculator

Big Banks Have Picked Their Candidate, & it's Romney

http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2012/01/15/135945/big-banks-have-picked-their-candidate.html

-January 15, 2012- By Andrew Dunn | Charlotte Observer

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The country's biggest banks are overwhelmingly supporting Mitt Romney's bid for the Republican presidential nomination, an analysis of federal campaign contributions shows.

Employees at the five largest U.S. banks by assets, including Bank of America Corp. and Wells Fargo & Co., had given Romney about $600,000 through the first three quarters of 2011, according to the most recent filings available from the Federal Election Commission.

The second-largest recipient of bank employee contributions, President Barack Obama, had far less, about $200,000, the analysis showed. The Republican presidential hopeful with the second-highest total, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, dropped out of the race in mid-August.

Romney received more from employees of those top five banks than all the other candidates combined, helping make the former Massachusetts governor the best-financed candidate in the Republican nomination battle, which is heating up in South Carolina ahead of Saturday's primary.

Romney’s Bain Capital Owns Media Giant Broadcasting: Limbaugh, Hannity

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article30260.htm ,

by Alex Newman -January 16, 2012-

...Activists are expressing serious concerns that Mitt Romney’s private equity firm Bain Capital owns one of America’s largest media conglomerates, Clear Channel Communications, Inc., which broadcasts numerous popular talk-show hosts with incalculable influence in the 2012 GOP primary. Among the radio personalities syndicated by Clear Channel or aired on hundreds of stations it owns nationwide are Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Glenn Beck, Michael Savage, and many others.

Because of the San Antonio-based media giant’s enormous influence — it is the largest owner of radio stations in the United States, and experts point out that it essentially owns what has come to be known as the conservative talk-radio industry — Romney critics, supporters of Ron Paul and Newt Gingrich, Tea Party groups, and elections commentators are all raising the alarm. Some analysts are even calling for the firm to disclose the fact that Romney’s Bain Capital owns a station or syndicates a show whenever a media personality is reporting on the Republican presidential campaign....

Romney probably will vow not to bringGlass Steagall back.

Why do Republicans even try?

Have the Republicans ever fixed anything (except elections)? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jocRd-aajW0 [right click]

We had an industrialized economy in the United States until private enterprise outsourced our major manufacturing with the US Chamber of Commerce and Republican Party's blessings.

The 3 Stooges who broke our economy are proof the Republicans should get out of government and politics.

The Republicans didn’t see a problem with the Gramm Leach Bliley law when it was written. Most Democrats didn’t either. Now Republicans aren’t doing anything to repair the damage and prevent recurrences. Democrats aren’t doing enough.

They should compare his money from Wall Street to Obamas from 2008 considering he did not actually run for anything in 2011.

Lets not forget Obamas contributors - he is worse when it comes to catering to big business

OK, so Romney may have had offshore accounts - Apple does along with thousands of other companies that do business overseas -

If you condem Romney for this then you need to close the door on the rest of the thousands of businesses that have offshore accounts.

Good idea. Lets start now. Down with hiding money offshore.

I'm all for it too, and I am sure the vast majority of Americans are for it however how can we "force" the government to do it.
