VIDEO: Obama Lampoons Romney Camp On Outsourcing/Offshoring

VIDEO: Obama Lampoons Romney Camp On Outsourcing/Offshoring

At a campaign event in New Hampshire today, President Obama mocked Mitt Romney’s campaign response to a Washington Post report about Bain Capital’s work with companies who outsourced jobs during Romney’s tenure.

“There’s a difference between outsourcing and offshoring,” Obama paraphrased a Romney spox. “That’s what they said – you cannot make this stuff up.”

“You don’t need someone who’s going to explain the difference between outsourcing and offshoring, you need someone who is going to” focus on creating jobs in the United States,Obama said.

How many know that another wage-lowering, let's-send-more-jobs-to-foreign-countries "free-trade" agreement is in the works? One that is called by some to be the NAFTA of the Pacific? How many know that Rmoney supports it?

Trans-Pacific negotiations have been taking place throughout the Obama presidency. The deal is strongly supported by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the top lobbying group for American corporations. Obama's Republican opponent in the 2012 presidential elections, Mitt Romney, has urged the U.S. to finalize the deal as soon as possible.

What better way is there to make more money for the super-rich while outsourcing/offshoring American jobs?
