New Obama Ad Attacks Mitt Romney for…Being Too Careless With Debt?!

The Obama administration’s allies continue to fail to understand the definition of “irony.” In an ad released today, the Obama-supporting SuperPAC Priorities USA attacks GOP Presidential candidate Mitt Romney of “drowning companies in debt” and costing workers their jobs and benefits as a result. And after they’re done feeling clever, no doubt every Obama voter is now asking themselves, “Wait, debt impacts employment and benefits? Who knew?”

Watch this most recent piece of unintentional comedy below:

    The only folks who will believe this kind of garbage are the same people who will vote for nobody but Obama no matter what he says or does. These very same voters do not even know that their savior just raised all of their taxes today with the Maobamacare bill ruling at the SCOTUS. Next tax hike that will be given to these same folks is the expiration of the Bush tax Cuts coming January 1, 2013 when EVERYONES taxes are going up.

      The folks who vote for obama don’t pay taxes.

      The poor and lazy.

      The Union gangs that end up with more government contracts. So higher taxes are a trade off for more work.

      The super rich who dodge all taxes and use every loophole, most of which are socialist.

      That leaves the middle class to foot the bill on this with their privately earned money.

      King Hussein said that we can’t do captialism, because it doesn’t work. Well, it only made our nation the richest and most powerful nation in the world.

      Not until the socialist got brave by placing the Usurper in the office did they finally decide to take the economy down and dissovle the Republic and create a new socialist government with King Hussein opting for a throne room instead of an oval office.

      We are the dumbasses that thought compromise was ok. We continued to have our taxes raised a little at a time while they continued to grow government faster than we could pay for it.

      Instead of voting for fiscally sound minded constitutionalist we allow the socialist to bring in their racist, broken promised fascists and socialists inside our government. First in education and then in government and now they own the air waves of propaganda.
      2012 is about only one issue, going forward will we become a socialist nation taxed to poverty or will we elect fiscally sound and constitutionally sound congresspersons to save the Republic

      You hit the nail on the head. “Feeling” the government has been using that tactic for decades. I believe it was a Socrates concept. Tell them how they will feel afterward and you will see success. This is the same reason we test drive cars, to see how it “feels”, not because it’s the most practical, economical or safe.

      I wish the “feelers” understood how to substitute their feelings for logic (when it comes to political decisions at least).

      NO, I think he is a patsy/useful idiot. Of all the GOP candidates to go after Obama Romney was the worst one(besides Huntsman).

      1. He created Romneycare.
      2. He was pro choice for decades.
      3. He supporters gun control.
      4. He supports the NDAA.
      5. He said Bernanke was doing a good job and he wouldnt waste time going after the FED.
      6. His budget doesnt cut money off of Obama’s current spending level.
      7. He shares 6 of his top 10 donors with Obama(big banks).
      8. He has stated he supports the idea of global healthcare diplomacy. Basically he wants to give poor nations money for healthcare so they will like us. (not in the Constitution to do that, nor has it worked). During that same speech he praised Hezbollah for their efforts in doing that to win the hearts and minds.
      9. He supports amnesty. Hell Obama gave him a softball the other day and he couldnt even capitalize on it.
      10. He keeps us in the UN, which keeps us as the global police forces, which continues our unstoppable path to bankruptcy.

      Romney is either too stupid to see the problem since he continues the mistakes of the earlier presidents or he is in on it.

    For better or worse, the Bain Capital business model was indeed to leverage a company up with debt. That is a fact and republicans will have to square with that. Sometimes the business model worked and sometimes it didnt

      Soybomb – Bain purchased the companies using debt but they did not intentionally operate at a deficit. In fact, just the opposite, they took over the companies and worked to reduce expenses and turn the companies into profitable enterprises. And it worked more often then not.

      It is so funny that Obama is attacking Romney for laying off workers or using debt at Bain. But Romney’s job then was NOT to create jobs, it was to create profitable companies and he was very successful at it. He was very successful at doing his job. The claim that cutting jobs at Bain would make him a bad President would be the same as making the claim that Babe Ruth would be a bad Yankee because while at Boston, he helped defeat the Yankees.

      Actually his jobs record looks pretty good as governor. While the jobless rate approximately doubled in the two years prior to his taking office to 5.6%, it had dropped to 4.4 percent by the time he left office. Meanwhile Romney took a $3 bil projected budget deficit and through expense cuts made a balanced budget. Not my ideal candidate but he looks pretty good when it comes to debt, deficits and jobs.

      And it’s also not anywhere near that simple. In fact, it’s far worse. This ruling sets precedent that the Congress may charge moneys, or impose penalty, for anything it likes under the auspices of a “tax” under it’s (heretofore legitimate) Constitutional powers to levee a tax, even if it’s clear to all (even the Court) that is, in fact, NOT a tax. Unimaginably frightening, to me, at least.

Obama is the worst person with -0- character that’s ever been in the WH. Ask him why he was forced to give up his Law License in the 1990′s…oh, ask why his wife was too. ROMNEY can get us on sound financial footing with decent Corporate Taxing…not 45%. ALL OBAMA WANTS TO DO is have us enslaved by College Loans (where he gets to tell us what to study and where) for the rest of our lives; Obamacare which is socialized medicine with no quality health care (Why do Canadians come here?) , wrecking our society; making slaves of all of us, for his purposes. DO NOT BE A SUCKER!! YOU must research this Marxist Muslim Trojan Horse yourself. Maybe the fact that he first ran as a Communist for State Senate in Illinois is not enough for you…okay? Then go find out about the Law Licenses. LIARS, CHEATS, CREEPS and THUGS.
