of Romney's "secret" speech that people can now watch the entire video online.
The scary thing is there are millions of people who believe that shit Mitt is spewing, at least the "47-percent" crap. I used to work with some guy who had major political connections in D.C., the Pentagon and the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the Bush I years and for a time worked in Reno for this company which was then (and may still be) owned by the Carlyle Group. On his FB page he actually thinks there is nothing wrong with Mitt's 47-percent remark. He was in the fucking MILITARY for some twenty years before retiring to work in the business world (never staying with any one job more than a couple of years--must have ADD or something). He was getting "handouts" from the "government" via working as a career military officer and getting a military pension. He comes from a family full of military people, who are also getting "handouts" from the taxpayers and they think they aren't leeches, but people less fortunate are!
He thinks because he is middle class he isn't a leech like those old, disabled, and poor people, but he IS a leech and comes from an entire family of leeches. It's leechery that has been appreciated because it has kept the country "free," but the taxpayers are still paying them as is the case with all public employees.
His latest wife--this devout Catholic has been married at least three times while bitching about Clinton and Ted Kennedy while being no angel himself--also works for the government at a naval hospital in North Carolina. Yet these people are so demented that they are "anti-government." It's positively surreal.
