What it boils down to. October 4, 2012 7:35 pm bowser

How did you like the last 4 years of Bush?  Would you like to continue those policies, wealth flowing into hedge funds, bailing out the derivatives, consumer finance collapsing, jobs even at minimum wage not available, schools, libraries, police departments not affordable.  A false economy built upon easy credit, which wiped out even those with good credit.  Fighting wars by borrowing money, lowering taxes on the wealthy, leaving the mess for the next guy.

All the while having Friends of Mitt making billions without lifting a finger.

That’s the choice.  And there are folks who loved the last 4 years of Bush.  Because he believed in God, God talked to him, God told him to fight those wars.  And he won – chased the Taliban out of Afghanistan, restored women’s rights there, democracy in Iraq.

Another round of that and the US will belong to the megacorporations and Blackwaters, and there are those who like the idea.
