"President Romney" -- Why Those Two Words Should Scare You into Action This Election

[Lakhota]

By Michael Moore

Right-wing billionaires are dropping piles of dough on this election ... it'll take people power to save the day.

In two months we Americans will go to the polls once again to decide who the president will be for the next four years. We will not be allowed to vote on those who wield the true power in this country. On November 6th we will not vote for the chairman of ExxonMobil or JPMorgan Chase or Citibank or the Premier of China. That day will come, but not this year.

Now, I know there are a goodly number of you out there who believe there's not a snowball's chance in Kenya that Barack Obama will not be re-elected to the White House. And why would you believe otherwise? After the incredible Democratic convention this week, with the best rock-em-sock-em speeches I've heard from a Democrat's mouth since … since, I don't know when. You can't help but not have a contact high after this past week if you are of the sort who believes in economic justice, peace, and a five-dollar latte. Right now, with the buzz on, you are sitting there thinking that your fellow Americans will turn out in massive numbers, either because they want to continue the Obama era or because they're scared shitless of the barbarians at the gate – or both. You're convinced that the Republicans have blown it with all their talk of the lady parts they want to control even though we now know that they have no idea where those parts are, what they are, or how they work.

Yes, it certainly looks like the voters will reject this obscenely wealthy man called Romney — Romney of Michigan/Massachusetts/New Hampshire/ Utah/Zurich/Grand Cayman — this man who will not explain exactly how all his wealth was obtained, where he keeps it, or how much taxes he pays on it. He wants to turn the clock back to the '50s – the 1850s – and he refuses to offer any specific plan about what he'll do about anything. He wants to run the country like a corporation but he can't even control one 82-year-old actor on his own convention stage, a Hollywood legend who, in the matter of ten and a half minutes went from Good (walking onto the stage) to Bad (talking to a chair) and then to Ugly (the chair started … swearing?). It was better than the best cat-flushing-the-toilet video on YouTube and it was a gift to all of us who know that Romney is doomed come November.

Or is he?

freedom is only scary for people who dont want to take responsibility for their actions.

 

[Salt Jones]

Those two words don't scare me. Whoever wins is of no import. I make money and my life gets better either way.

You have to work in the financial field.

 

[blackhawk]

The words President Obama have already done that.

Personally, I would love to hear the words "President Romney" again.

Defense and commercial aerospace. Wars never end and all countries need weapons. America is the world's largest arms dealer and the pay is good.

Keep saying them to yourself, because that's the only way you'll hear them. Hahahaha.

I hear you. For obvious reasons all I can say is that I am involved with the DoD. I used to work for a Wall St. firm. Your comments gave me the impression you worked in finance.

Thanks.

Is that so? You going to find some nickname that's a pretty sad excuse for an insult for him when he is serving the country?

Nope...when Whitey gets the White House back your black-ass is going back in chains.

At least that's what Biden said.

 

[Conservadude]

President Romney.

Sounds great to me!

 

[PredFan]

Lakhota abandoned another fail thread. Typical.

Never been in chains or poor and I've been employed since 1985. I was working through Reagan and the Bushes so I don't worry about the future, I planned for it.
