Cheating!!!

Congratulations Mitt, on securing the GOP nomination to be president. First I want to say I watch CSPAN and some news channels, I even watch a little Fox news. And I read the Economist, a few newspapers and I watch utube and other stuff on my computer. So, I see and hear things, you know, like that time a reporter responded to an answer of yours,  he said your answer to his question was not backed up by any facts. And then you 'acknowledged you knew that' and said, "Sauce for the goose."  When I saw a replay of the interview, it got me thinking, 'sauce for the goose?' Wait a minute,  you are running for president of the most powerful country in the world and you are proud of being a man of Faith.  Surely you have been taught that if someone does something illegal or immoral, like cheating or lying, that is not a license or excuse for you to do the same thing.  Did the adults who loved you as a child mess up?  Don't you know your wife and children can see and hear what you say when you're on the tube??  Look at this.

Ask me anything.

Here you are in 2007 holding an "Ask Mitt Anything" session in Ames, Iowa. Sorry I missed it. Should I suppose the people in Ames were allowed to ask questions on how you pay taxes, or about secret off-shore bank accounts? Or the process you use to make money?   Or, was all that stuff considered off limits? Like it is now? 
And what about your pet dog the one you put on the top of your car.  You put the family pet in a cage on the top of your car? And you kept him there for the entire 12 hour trip?  By the way that is some smart dog. It must have been a shock to him when he realized you didn't consider him a part of the Romney clan. Surely you knew he wanted to ride inside with the rest of the family.  When he got sick and dumped a good loose poop on the car, you got just what you deserved.

I also heard you on utube advising kids to get more money from their parents. You know, for college tuition or other college stuff.  You know, so they wouldn't cost the country money for guaranteeing loans.
What in hell is that??  

How bout the job-losing parents who got caught in the debris when you were setting earnings records for Bain.  Did you ever think of them? At the very least Mitt, I don't think you should continue to take credit for the success of Dade International. That is a bit much.
Ok, I'll grant you that borrowing $30 million and getting control of the  Dade was not easy stuff to do.   From Dade's point of view you were more than incompetent.   You and I know why you sold off the assets of a company well positioned in a viable industry?  And I heard you say how you liked firing people. And shoot, I know having fun is part of the game. But firing people is fun?
So when you wound up in the bankruptcy court with a very viable tech company and a leader in medical technology, why were you surprised the creditors were upset. They were losing their investment in Dade while you were the envy of the Wall Street Vultures' Club? And when they said they were going to sue you and bring charges of criminal fraud and personal enrichment against you?  Woo Ooo.  Good move giving back all of your remaining stock and other interests in Dade International including over $50 million Dollars.  Settling was a good idea.  For sure you would not look good, I mean reading in the Wall Street Journal, "Romney and Bain charged with fraud, and personal enrichment and stuff" . . . . .Woo Oooo. . . . .

So some good business men removed your board and put in a new board of directors, and also put a little more money into the company?    Maybe one of them should go into politics. What followed sure makes you look stupid for a guy who loves off shore bank accounts and is supposed to know what he is doing. . Lets see..
Remember when you were there just like the new guys,  you had the same chance, and you were in complete control. You knew Dade International better than anyone. You knew it was one of the largest companies in the world in their field. You helped make it that way with stock manipulations so the stock would be more attractive when you sold half of your stock.  Ok good you made more than $300 million. But new people now in charge used a little business sense, and got the company going again.  And after 4 years sold it to Siemans.
For what? $7 Billion?
HOW much?
7 Billion. How many employees did they fire?
They HIRED over 6000?.
Oh . . .Mitt. . I mean if you had the foresight and the ability to do that or even if you had not given up your remaining interest, you could have made more than $2 Billion.
Did you lose some of that high regard you had from the vultures? I mean I saw the picture Wall Street. I bet you could have played the lead better than Michael Douglas by just being Willard Mitt Romney. When I heard you on utube, when you actually took credit for the Dade International success? Saying, if you hadn't brought the company to the sheriff's door, the new company leaders would never have gotten a chance to run Dade International. Oh geeze. Well, I haven't heard anyone say you don't have chutzpa.

And Mitt, I'm with you here. Putting this on the off limits question list was absolutely right. I mean, its downright embarrassing. You are right to try to hide it, you know, like the money in the foreign accounts.

I'm sorry Mitt, outside of putting the dog on top of the car, this is you at your worst. Even with people who don't understand this stuff.  Yep the best way to handle it is, you know, by telling the Obama people to quit making accusations against your business record. You better keep saying that on other stuff too. Maybe enough people won’t catch on.

And using Rove ideas to cheat people of their vote. Which is more fun, Mitt? Cheating people out of their right to vote, or firing them?  I got fired once when I was a kid. I felt so bad. But getting fired so some Wall Streeter could hide money in foreign banks? Wooo Ooo.  And this guy Rove never met a hater, or bigot, or racist who would vote for a Democrat. That's why it’s so important to remind that group to vote, you know by making those inane jokes... Good Rovian strategy. But, maybe openly lying and cheating and putting your money in off shore accounts is the way to go. Just tell the suckers to take your word for it. You got away with that in Massachusetts. Maybe it will work again. Are you winning there now?

One more question, why would a person put his money in another country's bank anyway. I mean its complicated and most people who don't understand this stuff say the answer is easy. To cheat Uncle Sam and the IRS. And I was going to ask you what you think, but, after all those utubes, with you saying either side and then next day saying the opposite, you know . . . .flop flop, flippity flop. Some years ago the IRS put that little box at the bottom of your tax return. It asks you to put a check mark in that box if you have an off shore account. And then after the IRS caught a few cheaters, (did you get caught?) they offered amnesty on penalties if you owned up and paid the tax you owed . . . like you know, on the money in those accounts, which you have so many of.

A United States senator says you have cheated on your income-taxes some years. People are even saying Will, that you did fess up to the IRS, and you don't want anyone to know it. I'm not going press you on this question because I think you said it was one of those off limit ones.

By the way, I thought of one more question. This is the last one. I promise. If you are in a spot, with no cash money in your pocket,  how do you get to the ATM of  an off shore bank account?
