Mitt Romney For President!!!

Finally someone is seeing the sense......he also believes let the automakers go belly up! Could be the best thing to happen and it sure as Sheboygan is better than bailing them out!!! Survival of the fittest...capitalism in its truest form! The stock markets loss today tells me that Wall Street is afraid of a possible bailout for them and if it happens it will only get worse!!! As one senator said today in hearings "Everyone heard the Government is giving out free money and they are coming from all over to get some"!!!! They also noted in hearings that the automaker "FATCATS" traveled to Washington in private jets!!!! SEPERATE PRIVATE JETS!!!!!! Senators questioned the "FATCATS" as to why they could not fly commercial airlines or at the very least....take a private jet together???!!!! GIVE THEM NOTHING I SAY!!!!! Layoffs are going to happen and lots of them whether we bail them out or not and mark my words.....we will be alot worse off if we bail them out than if we don't!!!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I agree 100% Larry
The "fatcats" and the UAW can all go to hell as far as I'm concerned !
Just look at what Toyota has been doing with the frame recall situation on the Tacomas, (Problem caused by an American company (Dana) ) and see the way they are bending over backwards to take care of their customers!
Gm, Ford, & Chrysler would have been running from that situation as fast as they can (most likely in their private jets !!! ) and say screw the consumer !

LETS GO BRANDON

I don't think even SpongeBob's buddy Patrick could do that.....

Larry would vote for Hitler if he gave him a $20 Dunkin Donuts card.

Personally I think the man is an excellent business man. He just panders to everyone, except Huckabee. Now that dude is a twit

I don't like Romney at all.....but at least for a moment there he was speaking in lucid, coherent sentences!

Takes more than a $20.00 Dunkin Donut card to buy my vote Likwid.......have to toss in a dozen muffins too!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I didn't say I liked him as a politican. Although he is worlds better than Patrick. The guy actually knows how to run a business, but that does not completely translate into running a government, like Ross Perot found out too.
