Romney Unemployed?

While still embroiled in the scandal over his residency, Mitt Romney seems determined to raise eyebrows for his lies.  Now he claims to be suffering with Main Street Americans, because he too is unemployed.  May I suggest 200 million reasons that Romney is NOT suffering?  What a hypocrite!

17romneyMitt Romney sat at the head of the table at a coffee shop here on Thursday, listening to a group of unemployed Floridians explain the challenges of looking for work. When they finished, he weighed in with a predicament of his own.

I should tell my story,” Mr. Romney said. “I’m also unemployed.”

He chuckled. The eight people gathered around him, who had just finished talking about strategies of finding employment in a slow-to-recover economy, joined him in laughter.

“Are you on LinkedIn?” one of the men asked.

“I’m networking,” Mr. Romney replied. “I have my sight on a particular job.”

The morning coffee hour at Buddy Brew Coffee here on West Kennedy Boulevard was interrupted by a conversation about small businesses and job creation as Mr. Romney finished a three-day swing through Florida. While his visit was largely focused on fund-raising, he spent more than an hour promoting his pitch that he would be a stronger steward of the economy than President Obama.

But any of the bravado that accompanied him in the wake of his first presidential debate on Monday in New Hampshire — he vowed to return to the state in four years, accompanied by a Secret Service detail — was absent. He took a humble, self-deprecating approach.

“I wish I had a job for everybody,” Mr. Romney said at the end of his discussion. He added, “I may be unemployed for longer than I’d like.”… [emphasis added]

Give us a break, Newt.  Your $hundreds of millions ensure that you don’t have the slightest commonality with those people.

Furthermore, Romney is NOT unemployed.   His full time job is trying to become President.  While in that role, his and his families luxurious living expenses are paid by those who contribute to his campaign.  Therefore Romney is just another lying Republican hypocrite.  If elected, he will govern exclusively for the benefit of millionaires, billionaires and corporate criminals, NOT you.

  1. Did he collect his 99 weeks of UI? Wow he is in for a really rough road if his UI as run out?

  2. ….I don’t think he’s he’s homeless, is he? 😈

  3. It sure is a good thing he has all his dividends on which to rely.

  4. Who, in their right mind, would want a slacker to be our President? I mean if Mittens can’t find a job for himself, how is possibly going to find jobs for other Americans?

  5. Condescending arrogance ; He alone put one heck of a lot of people out of work— !! Never had to worry about a bill not being paid , or where his next meal was coming from—–never shopped a re sale store or a garage sale to clothe his kids , Bet he doesn’t know what day old bakery is like—

    And he dares to equate his life of no money worries to real unemployment ?

  6. I wish I had his unemployment check. What a fucking idiot this man is – and he’s the front runner – the rest are all crazier and stupider than him! He used to be the “normal” one. Well, apparently, there’s a new “normal” in town. 🙄
