Romney To Olympians: ‘You Didn’t Get Here Solely On Your Own’

[The T]

Did he tell them that they didn't get there? That this wasnt their victory? Their honor?

Nice try

Note the source? [ThinkProgress]. They're getting desparate to foist upon us that Romney actually agrees with Obama. Far from it. And the Olympics are far removed from small businesses that Obama attacked Friday week in Roaboke, Va.

It's disingenuous. The OP should know better. The Comparison is Apples to the byproduct after horses consume them.

ROMNEY: I know that you recognize a lot of people help you in a business. Perhaps the bank, the investors. There is no question your mom and dad, your school teachers. The people who provide roads, the fire, the police. A lot of people help.

Perhaps he was talking about proper influences that ALSO BELIVE IN LIBERTY and were better role models than the one's that Obama sought out like say...FRANK MARSHAL DAVIS, a family friend and KNOWN Communist?

Ya think?

IDIOT.

Romney To Olympians: ‘You Didn’t Get Here Solely On Your Own’

ROMNEY: You Olympians, however, know you didn’t get here solely on your own power. For most of you, loving parents, sisters or brothers, encouraged your hopes, coaches guided, communities built venues in order to organize competitions. All Olympians stand on the shoulders of those who lifted them. We’ve already cheered the Olympians, let’s also cheer the parents, coaches, and communities.

What a hoot. I agree with Mitt on this.

Mitt's correct. But this is far off the mark in comparison to Obama's dumb class warfare remarks.

You are comparing an athlete and the support of his or her family to Obama's socialist mentality that government creates jobs, not businessmen! The left's attempt to say that Obama didn't mean business don't do it rather he meant infrastructure is what he was referring to is BULLSHIT!

These are Obama's views, if you support him then OWN THEM!

obama was talking about personal wealth and property and WE didn't get there on our own and has no relationship to the Olympics.

The OP and his source trying to link the two are beyond idiotic, and those defending the OP are in the chorus.

just a reminder...

Obama said "you didnt do that." when referring to building a sucessful company.

Did Romeny tell the athletrs that "they didnt earn the right to be in the olympics"\

If not, stop with the non applicable comparison.

That is a boldfaced lie!!!!!

Obama was refering to building roads and bridges, and YOU know it.

It's scary to think some people VOTE when they fall for shit like this

Nope.

That was the second part of his speech. The first part came right out and said "you didnt bvuild that"....then later he started to talkkl about a teacher helped you...and then finally he said roads and bridges helped you.

But that was well after he realized "holy fuck.....I just fucked myself"

So NO BOLD FACED LIE.

You just proved you only believe what you hear...you refuse to find the trruth on youyr own.

Obama hopes and assumes you are a lazy fuck when he back pedals.

Obviously, he is correct.

The direct quote, repeated: "If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen."

So if we have a business, we didn't build that business, someone else did.

He didnt mention roads at all in the statement we are refering to.

 

[Stephanie]

Someone should tell the Governor he's running for President.

He said it in 2002.

Almost word for word what Obama said

really, so Obama said people got where they are in business because of their family and friends?
lets see one's a SPORT, the other is a persons livelihood, their money, blood, sweat and tears

What a hoot. I agree with Mitt on this.

Everybody does, but Romney wasn't trying to build a case for raising taxes. And he sure as hell didn't imply that the gov't deserves the credit for their accomplishments in getting to the Olympics, let alone if they win a medal.

Ah so what Mitt was saying..was their success is a one way street. That they can use our tax dollars to train on tax payer funded facilities, and win a tax payer funded event, but, the profit they make from all that is entirely their own.

As is socializing liabilities and privatizing profit.

Or the Vulture Culture.

Got it.

That along with your guys theory on Social Darwinism, religious freedom trumping personal liberty and the war on women and minorities should be a slam dunk come November.

I don't think most of those kids make any profit, they bust their humps for years working and training and not many get much money out of it. A few do, and cash in with endorsements and so on, and they pay taxes on whatever they get. I'll bet the families of most of the athletes sacrificed quite a lot over a number of years, with little or no help from the gov't. So here's a suggestion: Shut the fuck up.
