Can someone point me to the moment in the town hall debate when

Romney began chanting, "Government doesn't create jobs"? I missed parts of the second hour of the debate because of interruptions, and I have not been able to find that moment in the video.

Could someone who knows the actual time point in the debate when this occurred give me that information so I can listen to it? Thanks.

Romney is truly an evil person. The retardlicans have turned trickle down economics into a trickle down gov't debate.

Or Chemistry or light waves or bread making

Then it is perfectly acceptable.

As in " I am going to retard that boxcar/light wave/pizza dough".

Or " That boxcar/light wave/ball of dough has been retarded."

no one seems to know what to make of it. I have no idea what "trickle down government" is supposed to be, but everyone knows what trickle down economics is.
