Here was Captain Capitalist in the behind-closed-doors fundraiser that was leaked to Mother Jones:
“There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That that’s an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what ….These are people who pay no income tax.”
We’re all well aware that the Romney campaign isn’t going to let all those preposterous facts get in the way...[but] It seems that the lazy, socialist parasites that love the Obama’s progressive taxation programs actually all reside in the reddest of Republican red states.
