Presidential Mulligan, May 30
Obama and his supporters have been maligning Mitt Romney for the past few weeks for his role in Bain Capital. It seems that Romney was taking money from investors (with their full permission) to turn around companies and perhaps make money for investors. It’s a fairly basic capitalistic event. However, it seems because approximately 20 percent of these ventures failed, according to Democrats, this should give us pause to vote for him for president.
But it seems once you are in the Oval Office, things change. Our current president has taken money (approximately $750 billion) from taxpayers (without our permission) investing in “green” companies and “shovel-ready” jobs. Turns out, the “shovel-ready” jobs were not so “shovel-ready” and the “green” companies have gone belly-up. No one knows exactly what happened to those billions of dollars.
And now this president stands before us asking for a “mulligan” for another four years. My answer is no.
How about you?
