Obama campaign stepping up damage control over remark

Yea - and I wouldn't have got very far if my mommy didn't feed me and change my diapers as a baby.

Why does Obama leave out my mommy? My mom was far more valuable to me than all the benefits I got from the government.

We could go on and on- but the government didn't even build the roads and bridges- all they did was take money from producers in order to build that road. This could have been done with private money- and without any government.

In fact- we would be better off if that was the case all along.

"There was a great teacher somewhere in your life." This is also true, although many students do eventually surpass the teacher's knowledge.
"Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges." Yeah, we've got a great system set up, but more doesn't necessarily mean better.
"If you’ve got a business -- you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen." bullsh**. Business grow because of the person running them. Do they use the system currently in place, both private and public? Yep. but the bus don't move without a driver.


Again, you are misleading with your assessment. If you actually listen to him say the words, he is saying that the business owner didn't build the roads and bridges. Keep on clinging to this and it will be another weight around Romney's neck.

Romney could have gotten more mileage out of this if he hadn't stuck his foot in his mouth in Britain. The conversation has changed.

No, I believe you are misleading with your assessment.

Communication is a two way street, and Obama really blew it this time. I understand how you're interpreting his meaning, but it's so wide open for others, including the way I'm taking it. I look at it as a slip - a glimpse of how he really feels about those that have built businesses.

I'm sure you do... The same way I look at Romney's slip about "I like to fire people."

Yep, I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm just telling how I see it.
