another excerpt released from the same mother jones video. filmed at a 50k a plate dinner in boca raton, fla. 50k a plate?! wow.

joey, in what ways will romney 'be better'? the removal of banking regs? lowering taxes even more on the wealthy? growing the defense budget?
As opposed to the bargain-basement $40,000 per plate fundraiser in Hollywood for Obama?

It's funny how none of you guys ever talk about cutting spending, just raising more taxes. As if there is no limit to what can be raised and remaining blissfully ignorant of where the bracket is to collect from.

We want to NOT SPEND 3 Billion a day fighting unjust wars for the benefit of the oil companies and other war profiters like say Dick Cheney and George W Bush. That is a boat ****ing load of spend cut no? And NO I am against raising taxes I am FOR confiscation of money sheltered in overseas accounts to evade US taxes.

yeah, romney wants to cut spending..but only in some areas. in others, he wants to increase spending.


romney supporters-go to factcheck.org and see what they have to say about his unrealistic plans.

welllllll....thanks for paying attention joey. i've railed numerous times about the overspending on defense alone. that's only the tip of the iceberg. i've also said, numerous times, that we have got to get a handle on social security, and the two medi-'s. those programs are the incredibly vast majority of fed spending. they are untenable now, and the longer we wait to fix 'entitlements' (and medicare and ss aren't entitlements-we pay into those for retirement) the worse the eventual 'fix' will be.
and when the talk started about romneys speech at the fundraiser, the focus wasn't about the cost per plate, but what romney had to say when he thought he was only talking to people like him. and yeah, i can't relate to either 40 or 50k for one lousy dinner, and listening to some blowhard.
i see complaints on here, with good reason, about outsourcing jobs overseas. about money hidden overseas. well, the republican nominee knows all about that, doesn't he? why would one of the perpetrators of those be willing to make any changes in regards to those??
not a fan of raising taxes. however, the bush tax cuts have done nothing but raise the deficit. it was supposed to be temporary. i think they shouldn't be extended, especially not for the wealthy. it sure hasn't accomplished anything insofar as job growth. you know, what it was supposed to do.
