Apparently, sore loserness is the gift that keeps on giving in this election. Now, 2012 presidential loser Mitt Romney says that unenlightened African Americans, Latinos and young women (notice that old women were not singled out) voted for the President because, basically, we're mindless idiots, Barack Obama promised to give us stuff and that's why we voted for him. You see folks, Romney and his ilk see people of color -- African Americans and Latinos specifically -- and young women as house pets. Someone holds a treat in of our mouths, we scramble on the floor to gobble it up and then we do what whatever we're told i.e., chase the stick, run after the Frisbee, etc.
From Politico:
“The president’s campaign focused on giving targeted groups (including African Americans, Hispanics and young women) a big gift — so he made a big effort on small things. Those small things, by the way, add up to trillions of dollars,” Romney said on a conference call with donors, the Los Angeles Times first reported.
The “gifts,” according to Romney, included forgiving college loan interest, free contraceptive coverage and the part of Obamacare that allows people 26 and younger to be covered under their parents’ health care plans.
“You can imagine for somebody making $25,000 or $30,000 or $35,000 a year, being told you’re now going to get free healthcare, particularly if you don’t have it, getting free healthcare worth, what, $10,000 per family, in perpetuity. I mean, this is huge,” Romney said, the New York Times reported.
“Likewise with Hispanic voters, free healthcare was a big plus,” Romney added. “But in addition with regards to Hispanic voters, the amnesty for children of illegals, the so-called Dream Act kids, was a huge plus for that voting group.”
Keep digging Romney. Soon, not even brown conservative politicians will be able to save the Republican party. Not George P., not Ted Cruz, none of them.
Not for nothing, but President Obama didn't give me shit. As the owner of a tiny business that earns me enough money to support myself, I don't get shit from any government agency, not health care, not subsidies of any kind, nothin'!. I voted for Barack Obama because he's the right man and has a track record for doing a good job for all Americans.
Not only is Romney's position offensive, it's insulting. I'm sick and tired of people saying he's decent man. Are these the words of a decent man? Good thing I've never voted Republican.
