The "47%" story needs to be the DEATH KNELL of the MittTwit RobMe campaign ! Keep it VIRAL.

Facebook. MySpace. Twitter. Email. Letters to the Editor. KEEP IT GOING ! The reason why this needs to be devistating is because it shows just how tone deaf, ignorant, arrogant, and ROTTEN this bastard RobMe is and how UNFIT he is for the Presidency. Here he goes shooting off at the mouth about about 47% of us being lazy freeloaders who pay no taxes. It is just DIGUSTING. First, we virtually ALL pay taxes in the form of payroll taxes and state and local taxes, and we all pay sales tax, gas tax, and FEES for many services. This guy is UNFIT TO BE PRESIDENT. Plain and simple. He is DIGUSTING.

We must all unite BIGTIME and make sure this thing SINKS THE ROTTEN HORRID BASTARD ONCE AND FOR ALL.

who may be but truly believe it to be a temporary embarrassment or that they just aren't in the 47%. They really believe they worked hard but that others in the same position did not.
