Bless Your Little Cold Desperate Lying Heart Romney Re: Redistribution

You all are just so desperate to turn the page where YOU Romney, out of your own mouth, insulted half the country.
You demonstrated you didn't know anything about foreign policy. You demonstrated your lack of understanding American Values.

Now here you are going back to 1998, 14 years ago, for some perceived "dirt" on Obama.
Here is the Obama quote from 1998 you are throwing a temper tantrum over.

“The trick is figuring out how do we structure government systems that pool resources and hence facilitate some redistribution because I actually believe in redistribution, at least at a certain level to make sure everybody’s got a shot.” ~Obama

Was this really what you meant by dirty bomb?

"If I were Iran-a crazed fanatic-I'd say let's get..fissile material to Hezbollah, have them carry it to Chicago or some other place, and then if anything goes wrong or if America starts acting up, we'll just say, "Guess what, unless you stand down, why we're gonna let off a dirty bomb." ~Romney May 2012

Redistribution huh? You trying to make that a dirty word, much like your dirty bomb suggestion for Iran, is UNBECOMING of someone who is running for President of The United States. Someone who is President of ALL THE PEOPLE, not just some of the people.

You even making a suggestion for a FOREIGN COUNTRY to bomb one of our cities, IS FUCKING UNAMERICAN!

Before I go let me just tell you what Government Redistribution really is.

The American government has always been about redistribution. The government takes tax money and distributes it to where it serves the common welfare of the country, whether for military, or to help the poor, or to create new industry through research and development work, to fund public schools, to build roads and bridges, to aid the elderly and the disabled, and so on. It doesn't always do it effectively or as efficiently as possible, but redistribution could be said to be the primary function of government.

Did you hear that? Redistribution is part of what the American Government is all about. THAT IS NOT PARTY! That is COUNTRY!

You are a disgrace Mitt Romney!

and they don't complain aout that!

After-Tax Income Grew More for Highest-Income Households

After-tax income for the highest-income households grew more than it did for any other group. (After-tax income is income after federal taxes have been deducted and government transfers—which are payments to people through such programs as Social Security and Unemployment Insurance—have been added.)

CBO finds that, between 1979 and 2007, income grew by:
275 percent for the top 1 percent of households,
65 percent for the next 19 percent,
Just under 40 percent for the next 60 percent, and
18 percent for the bottom 20 percent.
