It's not everyday that a Pulitzer Prize-winning economist proffers the same message that a former NFL player-turned-VP of Inclusive Competitiveness (first in America) has been promoting for more than a decade.
I think its interesting how people selectively ignore the concept of nuance. A few folk will rail over that Edited Anti Obama ad, and go "See, see, hes against business.." What??? It seems unless it takes over 30 seconds to explain certain people can't be bothered to hear and just lives off of buzzwords.
Conservatives are going to get the shock of their lives come November if they think people do not pay attention when they misquote my president. As an Independent, I will not vote for a certified pathological liar who is a looking down his nose fraud. Romney will be sent back to his 12 room mansion with the 4 car elevator. Also if he sticks to supporting the Ryan budget, he is surely toast.
It is disgusting when these people are still using this ad as being credible. Romney lied in his ad and his presentation to those business people which was dishonest. People are smarter to believe the BS that conservatives are being dishonest and cannot run a campaign without lying.
I hear these Republican idiots on Morning Joe and other shows claiming that Flipper the Mitt made all his money by paying next to nothing or in fact nothing in taxes and shipping jobs overseas etc. but it's not his fault because that's how the Republicans have set up the tax system over the last thirty years and he's just playing by the system they created, but he wants to change that system. NO HE DOESN'T. Have these guys read his 59 point plan? He want's to make it even worse for 98% of Americans and even more deceptive and advantageous for the Mitts of the world.
These guys just make crap up and call themselves journalists when they should be calling themselves corporate propagandists.
I would like to make a small point.... especially with the tax fight looming... Republicans say that a tax increase hurts Job creators, that is stops them from creating jobs... well "Job Creators" as we shall call them, has enjoyed the Bush Tax cut rates for how many years now? From its start through the Recession till now, they have enjoyed a low tax rate. Well Since they have had this low tax rate all this time..... Shouldn't we be seeing them producing Jobs all this time? I would like an answer to this logic gap
A tax increase will hurt the REAL JOB CREATORS... the middle class. How could anyone trust Romney to 'fix' the tax code? Oh, he'll fix it alright... but not for the ones who need it to be fair.
Some of the greatest companies in the world have been founded by Indian entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley. Joe perhaps you should ask them why they came to the US to found their start-ups? It might have something to do with our great infrastructure such as capital availability, educated workers, a well developed legal system, etc.

I can see it now, Mittens and the right wingers will start saying the POTUS is apologizing for America AGAIN when in fact he is just apologizing for Mitt's multiple screw-ups as he causes international incidents on a daily basis. Ha Ha Ha!
