Romney caught on hidden cam saying messed up $hit

[ceo]

Have we all forgotten...

"It's not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." --explaining his troubles winning over some working-class voters

That got some press, but not like this is getting. And I'm sure those that are bashing Romney now thought that it was just fine for Obama to berate half of America then.

So now Romney did the same exact thing that Obama did. Give him time and he will make more foolish comments just like Obama has.

"The point I was making was not that Grandmother harbors any racial animosity. She doesn't. But she is a typical white person, who, if she sees somebody on the street that she doesn't know, you know, there's a reaction that's been bred in our experiences that don't go away and that sometimes come out in the wrong way, and that's just the nature of race in our society."

"No, no. I have been practicing...I bowled a 129. It's like -- it was like Special Olympics, or something." --making an off-hand joke during an appearance on "The Tonight Show", March 19, 2009 (Obama later called the head of the Special Olympics to apologize).

"I didn't want to get into a Nancy Reagan thing about doing any seances." --after saying he had spoken with all the living presidents as he prepared to take office, Washington, D.C., Nov. 7, 2008 (Obama later called Nancy Reagan to apologize)

...and the list goes on

Romney Tells the Truth about a Lie.

Supporting either wing of the party is insane.

This racist remark, "It's not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." was made before he won the presidency.

By your own words then does that make him dumb or just lucky?

you are purposefully evading the context here CEO, the two statements in their inten couldn't be more diametrically opposed. Obama went on to say that even those people he described, who have zero intention of voting for him, cannot be belittled or marginalized. Hardly the same sentiment Rommo shared in his private fund raiser eh? go look at the full transcripts.

Romney had excuses too bro.

His next move should be to comment about a "typical black person" now. Hell, he could just get elected!

What race was offended by "clinging to religion"? because Southern blacks tend to be pretty religious.

To me that just sounds like a very polite and respectful way to describe the stupid ass red neck racist hillbillys around the coal country of Pennsylvania and West Virginia, which is who he was talking about.

Barack Obama’s big loss in the Kentucky primary reignited questions about how much white racism is hurting the Democratic front-runner. As in West Virginia, more than 20 percent of voters called race a factor, and the white vote went overwhelmingly for Hillary Clinton. But the same night, Obama won 57 percent of white voters in Oregon. I talk about this contradiction in my Current video this week (text continues below).

except he made a point to say that they shouldn't be minimized or trivialized by his party, that they matter as well even if they have zero intention of voting for him or democrat in general. So he wasn't even really making a back handed insult like you're implying. He was being real....when people feel left out by the system they cling to what gives them hope or purpose. Some latte sipping city liberal doosh just can't figure out why in todays world anybody still gives a shit about guns...he's become divorced from other people's realities and Obama was making the point that you can't do that. I give him great credit for this even though i don't think he's been an effective president...partly due to the political environment that we have now. No one could president now. Only someone who is willing to reinvent the govt, and in reality our society...is going to work.
