His first priority is to his religion and his religion teaches that one day he will be a god, equal to THE God. That is what got Satan tossed out of heaven.

You put the dots together.

Don't kid yourself, Romneys first priority is Romney. Always has been.

I really don't think that's what motivates him. I think it's more personal than wanting to help others.

You can guess and BS but Romney has everything he needs, he damn sure doesn't need to have idiots like you two demeaning him every day. He is doing his country a service.

He would do his country a service by returning to moderate Mitt, and disavowing the extemist Koch suchers (Tea Party etc.) that have high jacked the Republican party with their so called conservatism, that is in reality extremist libertarianism/darwinism.

You mean that Bertie's been supporting Romney all this time and doesn't even know what his plan is? :busted:

I guess, if you never care about facts anyway, why bother with details like that?

:lalalala:


Are you ashamed to post a link child? Why is that?


I see that Brewster is running and hiding again. :bounce:


I would still like to see Brewster man up and give us a link to his post about Romney's economic plan. I bet it will be a hoot.

During an appearance at the Center for American Progress Action Fund, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers offered a harsh analysis of Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s tax plan, saying we were in “uncharted territory of being wrong.” Summers also addressed the five “studies” the Romney campaign cites in support of its budget, two of which come from the Wall Street Journal. He said, “It’s a modest abuse of language to refer to a Wall Street Journal editorial as a study, much less two Wall Street Journal editorials.” (ThinkProgress addressed these studies here.)

Summers, who backed up the Tax Policy Center’s analysis that found the math of the Romney plan to be impossible, said the tax plan was the “daughter of voodoo economics,” riffing off the term George H.W. Bush used to describe Ronald Reagan’s supply-side economic policies:

SUMMERS: I’ve seen it where if you really parse the arithmetic closely and imagined what the CBO would do, the challenger’s errors were in the tens of billions of dollars. I’ve seen it where if you really parsed the errors, the challenger’s errors were in the hundreds of billions of dollars. This is the first time that the challenger’s errors have, on my accounting, been measured in the trillions of dollars. This is daughter of voodoo economics.

It’s easy to say that my plan is to eat ice cream sundaes and chocolate cake and hamburgers as much as I want. My plan is to lose 60 pounds. And my plan is to avoid painful exercise. And those are all my objectives and I’m committed to every one of them. You can do that, but it isn’t likely to get you — you don’t know quite where you’re going to go if you’ve got all three of those objectives.

I think what’s important to recognize, and I think what the nature of political discourse tends to lead one not to see, is that we’re sort of in uncharted territory of being wrong.

Romney says his plan would cut taxes “across the board” by 20 percent, and — by closing loopholes and eliminating deductions — would not contribute to the deficit. However, the non-partisan Tax Policy Center (TPC) says that if Romney closed every single deduction in the tax code — including those for home mortgages and charitable contributions — 95 percent of Americans would see their taxes increase. Those making more than $200,000, though, would see a net tax break.

It’s virtually impossible that these tax cuts would not substantially increase the deficit because, as TPC’s Roberton Williams observed, “Nothing comes to mind to broaden the tax base enough to pay for the lower rates.”

Mitt Romney, a successful businessman is not dumb enough to believe this plan will work. But, he's hoping the voters are.

Still waiting for a link from Brewster. You know, he always demands a link from others or says they are stupid or worse. Is that what he is saying about himself?

Once elected Tom, you won't have to wait long for that wish to come true.

Addressing your earlier post, you are probably right, guys strive to emulate their parents or parental figures in life. Romney is a moderate and follows in the footsteps of dad. He spent 10 years as a pastor in his church, the church his dad was a leader in, which shoots down the notion that Romney is self centered and doesn't care about people.

Now let's look at Obama, he too, like all guys, strives to emulate his parents. Their socialist bordering on communist beliefs were hammered into Jr. And he has tried to accomplish the goals of his parents beliefs.

I think we have a clear choice here. Either more gridlock because congress is not going to pass any socialist programs and will address the medicare grab by the healthcare law. Or elect Romney, a proven moderate and one capable of bringing all sides together and forge a compromise. Which do you favor Tom? More of the same or true change?

Based on WHAT do you claim that Romney can bring all sides together?

I see no indication thjat the Dems will go along with the radical agenda the s will force on him.

The only time he worked with the Dems was when he did what they wanted in Mass. Which the TP will never stand for.

You're in dreamland, Pat.
