Romney To Release Misleadingly Edited Obama Video As An Ad

We know. He had a mother who loved him. Two grandparents who raised him. He got loans from the government (just like I did, both the GI Bill and Student Loans). That's why he's right and you're a turd.

Hit a nerve, right to name calling. He used highways that Government supplied, he used the electrical grid, was taught by professors that the government educated. His own logic rules out he is any smarter and did no work harder, he got lucky. Why do you argue with his own words?

How am I wrong?

You're not only wrong - you're really, really stupid.

I can't believe this is still only July. These gize are already in TOTAL melt down. :lol:

Coming from you, that's a compliment.

Yet, you can't refute it.

Mitt Romney’s campaign will bring a deceptively edited clip of President Obama’s “you didn’t build that line” to a much wider audience. The campaign is taking an abridged version of the video and expanding it into a full ad buy.

The amount of the buy for “These Hands” is still unknown. The ad features Obama discussing the importance of transportation, education and other government investments for the private sector, but selected lines are cut up and spliced together to make it appear as if he’s delivering one continuous passage:

If you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.

The sentences left out in Romney’s edit clearly indicate that Obama was discussing public services, not the businesses themselves. The quotes cut out of the ad are in bold:

If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet. The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together.

They lay out the parameters for this type of fight and then cry when both sides use them.
 
Listening seems semi-functionally retarded. Oh, and what a hateful foul mouth. I bet he professes to be religious? Oh, that's right, he's a Mormon...

Is that FLDS or LDS, I wonder...?

Personally, I find Circumstance separates the Sheep from the Wolves. We are not interchangeable, we each matter. What you do to the least, you are capable of doing to the whole. You can't keep sacrificing Principle, Conscience, for what is convenient for the State. Obama still has not learned that. He is a Community Organizer, a Parasite, living off of the Works of others. Granted he is not alone in that. Plenty of people from both sides of the Aisle still play that game. Still, no excuse for it. No point in blaming the Victims, now is there?

Actually, I am pretty sure first year biology tought us the sheep and the wolves are separated by genetics and parents. Sheepe are sheep no matter what, and wolves are wolves no matter what. You do not have wolves popping out of sheep, or vice versa. You don't have sheep morphing into wolves, or vice versa. So this idea that it is just circumstance that defines whether or not you are a sheep or a wolf is pretty stupid as there was no other option.

Unless you are a christian and science and reality mean nothing to you, and then maybe you could hope for jesus to tun sheep into wolves. Oh I know, listening is a white god from the planet moron where they make gods from white people to fight the black demons and birth them on earth to griow up so they will someday be gods on their own planet, so maybe because he is a moron he is a god and can turn sheep into wolves.

OK, we will prove this. Listening hates me, and i invite him to use his super godly moron powers to turn me into a sheep. Come on god boy, hit me with your best shot. Show us those godly powers john smith gave to you.

No need to turn you into a moron.

YOU HAVE ARRIVED.........

You know, I think on some level you Obama supporters understand that he's screwed himself at a crucial moment in the election. That's why what we're seeing now, on political boards like this one, is half of you trying to employ "the Jedi Mind Trick" to convince us he didn't say what he actually said, and the other half arguing that businesses are somehow benefiting from infrastructure which THEY PAY FOR through taxation and sometimes even directly.

Neither argument changes the damage your candidate has done. He said what he meant. An "out-of-context" attack would be one that changes the meaning from the whole statement. This doesn't. It's merely a soundbite version of the whole.

Of course, you're right to be flipped out. Every time Obama goes off 'prompter his inner socialist inartfully shines through. You guys are supposed to be keeping that on the down-low, right? :lol:

Romney is not a "side". He is a 1% er bishop in a cult that was very successful gaming the system using his wealthy friends, bank and government money to destroy the lives and future retirements of thousands of hard working Amewricans.

Calling him a side is like calling the Colorado Killer a proponent for gun sales.

He was and remains a one man wrecking crew with inside connections.

Don't forget that most people that know the "Joker" thought he was a nice intelligent guy.

Crazy is as crazy does.

Another jackass post from the board jackass (at least he's consistent).

And what does it mean to profess to be religious ?

Like so many things you post...it makes no sense. It only goes to show that when you can't defeat those would take away your goodies......you attack them personally.

To steal from another post:

Can someone translate this from retarded to English ?

And who cares about what you find "personally" ? is that somehow supposed to be scientific ?

Would you like to do some statistics on what you find 'personally" ? I can help you there.

Besides showing an incredibly ignorant and bigoted side, you also show a lot of anger.

I realize we will see more of that as it become more and more clear that both Obama and the senate will fall to the GOP and your entitlements will be reduced.

Get a job.

You're not only wrong - you're really, really stupid.

Coming from you (nicknamed Chief SB and the S does not stand for Sitting), this would be funny if it were not so tragic.

Everyone understands what Adam Smith's premise was in his concept of economics. There is not doubt and we call contract to take advantage of each other specialties.

However, our beloved token minority incompetent president is using this as a settup to go after more of what you get in the name of government.

Not only is he wrong, but he is leading simpletons like you over a cliff.

We are here to save you.

Now, get a job or move to Cuba.

I find that statement to be pure wingnut bullshit.

And as usual, you make a pronouncement about what you "find" and back it up with nothing.

What part of this don't you agree with ? This ?

You can't keep sacrificing Principle, Conscience, for what is convenient for the State.

So you don't have prnciples.....well, we knew that.

Or maybe this:

Plenty of people from both sides of the Aisle still play that game.

Let me guess...you think the liberals are pristine in all this. ROTFLMAO

And you accuse others of being stupid ?

Or do you lack something else....

Maybe this will give you a clue......it is from the net (i.e. it isn't mine.....someday you'll get those nuanced differences).

While it is consistent with the prediction of the Hypothesis, the conclusion in my previous post that liberals are on average more intelligent than conservatives may not resonate with most people’s daily observations and experiences. If they are more intelligent, why are liberals – especially those in Hollywood and academia – so much more likely than conservatives to say and do stupid things and hold incredulous beliefs and ideas that stretch credibility?

Bruce G. Charlton, Professor of Theoretical Medicine at the University of Buckingham and Editor in Chief of Medical Hypotheses, may have an explanation. In his editorial in the December 2009 issue of Medical Hypotheses, Charlton suggests that liberals and other intelligent people may be “clever sillies,” who incorrectly apply abstract logical reasoning to social and interpersonal domains. As I explain in an earlier post, general intelligence – the ability to think and reason – likely evolved as a domain-specific evolved psychological mechanism to solve evolutionarily novel problems, whereas, for all evolutionarily familiar problems, there are other dedicated evolved psychological mechanisms. Everyone – intelligent or not – is evolutionarily equipped with the ability to solve such evolutionarily familiar problems in the social and interpersonal domains as mating, parenting, social exchange, and personal relationships, with the other evolved psychological mechanisms. Charlton suggests that the totality of all the other evolved psychological mechanisms (except for general intelligence) represents what we normally call “common sense.” Everyone has common sense. Intelligent people, however, have a tendency to overapply their analytical and logical reasoning abilities derived from their general intelligence incorrectly to such evolutionarily familiar domains and as a result get things wrong. In other words, liberals and other intelligent people lack common sense, because their general intelligence overrides it. They think in situations where they are supposed to feel. In evolutionarily familiar domains such as interpersonal relationships, feeling usually leads to correct solutions whereas thinking does not.

Now, that we've gotten that out of the way, we should thank Laking for taking the time to show us just how screwed up Obama is. His words speak for themselves. In fact, reading the entire speech only shows you that Romney should have spent a few more dollars to clue the American people into what an arrogant asshole they elected to the WH in 2008.

BTW: I'd like to inform Big Barack that my parents invested in those roads and schools as well as my aunts, uncles and grandparents. And I am sure they have no problem with the fact that I benefitting from them. And when was the lasts time the whole country went on a picnic together.

Obama calls himself a constitutional scholar....that means he is expert in twisting it. All you have to do is look at the health care arguments (from his side....which even the liberals said were wrong) to get a feel for just what a whackjob he has turned out to be.

Why would four judges say Obamacare was out and and out unconstitutional ?

And the fifth essentially have to rewrite the argument for the WH ?

Could someone share with me an ad attacking Romney that's "misleading".

He really did say, "Less police, less firemen and less teachers".

He really did say, "He likes to fire people".

He really did take money from nearly a dozen companies when he said he wasn't working there.

He really did try to take credit for saving the auto industry.

The stuff Romney did, he really did.

So the left taking Romney out of context is okay, yet when Obama says something stupid, in or out of context, you are okay with it.

How about an example of the left taking Romney out of context?
