Mitt Romney: Defending Gaffes With Lies
So Mitt’s “I like to fire people” was about health insurance and not his days of pillaging at Bain. Romney’s not being at all fair in the way he’s defended himself. He told reporters he was only talking about defending consumers from the supposed tyranny of the Affordable Care Act – and he lied about what it does.
“I don’t want to live in a world where we have Obamacare telling us which insurance we have to have, which doctor we can have, which hospital we go to.” - Mitt Romney
Romney has no credibility. Zero. Nada. Here’s the facts.
“Those of us who supported a more progressive healthcare reform bill, including a public option, know that the compromise brokered by the White House protected the private insurance system. Nothing in the law tells people which insurance they have to have or which doctor they can go to. As a matter of fact, insurance companies themselves restrict which doctors we go to – they also have death panels – but that’s another story.” - Joan Walsh
Mitt does not like his words being taken out of context, yet does it himself with Obama all the time. Well, “I like being able to fire people” is exactly the kind of thing Mitt Romney could have said during his career at Bain Capital. Payback is a bitch.
