What is funny about that ad is that the owner of Gilchrist received a $500,000 loan from the SBA, $800,000 grant from the state of New Hampshire and two government contracts to "build" his business.

talk about hypocrisy. Typical of conservatives.

From the factchecker:


"Romney, however, descends into silly season when he extrapolates Obama’s quote and says that means Obama believes Steve Jobs did not build Apple Computers.
Here’s what Obama said when Jobs passed away earlier this year: “By building one of the planet’s most successful companies from his garage, he exemplified the spirit of American ingenuity. By making computers personal and putting the Internet in our pockets, he made the information revolution not only accessible, but intuitive and fun.”
That sounds like Obama believes that Jobs really did build his company. He did not mention the roads to Cupertino."

"But instead, by focusing on one ill-phrased sentence, Romney and his campaign have decided to pretend that Obama is talking about something different — and then further extrapolated it so that it becomes ridiculous. That’s not very original at all"

You wish that you could do as well, Wayne.

Much more factual.

Tell that to the Toad, or does it only apply to one side?
