Mitt Romney Mocks Barack Obama’s Latest Ridiculous Comments on the Economy with “It Worked” Ad … It Did Not Work, Latest GDP 1.5%

IT DID NOT FORK, IT EPICALLY FAILED!!!

Mitt Romney slams Barack Obama on his latest laughable and ridiculous statement that his polices have “worked” in the following political ad. As posted at Mitt Romney.com, the GOP presidential candidate questions how “it could have worked” if the unemployment rate has been above 8% for 41 straight months, if millions of Americans are on food stamps and millions of Americans are struggling to make ends meet. How could it possibly have worked?

The toughest question was whether he could say that no one in the White A few nights ago at a fundraiser, President Obama proudly proclaimed that his economic plan had “worked.”

Tell that to the millions of Americans now on food stamps.

Tell that to the millions of Americans struggling to make ends meet.

No Mr. President, it did not work.

It Worked?

The Gateway Pundit has the full text to the ad.

Barack, it worked? How about that anemic 1.5% GDP? It is obvious the economy is headed in the wrong direction. Exactly how is Obama going to raise taxes in the face of an economy going backwards? Barack Obama, it not only did not worked, it epically failed!!!

Gross domestic product expanded at a 1.5 percent annual rate between April and June, the weakest pace of growth since the third quarter of 2011, the Commerce Department said on Friday. Consensus estimates forecast growth at a 1.3 percent pace.

First-quarter growth was revised up to a 2.0 percent pace from the previously reported 1.9 percent. Output for the fourth quarter was raised to a 4.1 percent rate from 3.0 percent.

Barack Obama Doubles Down on “You Didn’t Build That!” Comment, the Obamanomics of Sharing & Economics … Because Its Worked So Well

I guess President Barack Obama did not get the memo that his foolish comment of “You didn’t build that!” line was a disastrous failure. But just like any good Alinsky disciple do when they are backed in a corner … double down of course. Last night at a California fundraiser, Obama lectured Mitt Romney on economics and continued with the loser of a statement that “You didn’t build that!” Of course we need to see where the speech took place, the far LEFT coast.

How out of step with America is Barack Obama, 72% believe small business owners primarily are responsible for their own success, yet the President continues on this big government, nanny state philosophy.

“I gotta tell you Oakland, he is dead wrong. We did not… We did not build this country from the top down. We built this country together. That’s how we sent a man to the moon. That’s how we built medical breakthroughs that saved millions of lives. If Mr. Romney does not understand that, then he doesn’t understand what it takes to build an economy where everybody has a shot to succeed.”

Mitt Romney blasted Obama following the insulting comments of every Entrepreneur in America and attacking success … “I find it extraordinary that a philosophy of that nature by a President of the United States.”

Barack Obama went on to tell the partisan crowd in Oakland, CA that his policies and agenda have worked. Really, they worked? For who and what country did Obamanomics work for? Under the regime of Obama unemployment has been over 8% for 41+ months, there is record number of people on food stamps, record government spending, record debt, record home foreclosures, record bankruptcies and more Americans are going on disability than getting jobs. Worked for who Mr. President, good grief!

Discussing his economic policies at a fundraiser in Oakland,  California, last night, President Obama, told supporters that “we tried our plan — and it worked.”

“We tried that and it didn’t work,” Obama said of Mitt Romney’s proposed tax cuts and spending cuts, which he dismissed as a Bush-style “top down” economic policy.  “Just like we’ve tried their plan, we tried our plan — and it worked,” he added later in the speech.  “That’s the difference. That’s the choice in this election.  That’s why I’m running for a second term.”

Obama made these comments in Oakland, where the unemployment rate was 13.7 percent in May 2012. The national unemployment rate is 8.2 percent — up from 8.1 percent in May — for the second straight month.

Rasmussen: Partisan Hack Democrats Believe the US Economy Getting Better

Partisan hack, Kool-Aid drinking Democrats believe the US economy is actually getting better.

According to a recent Rasmussen poll, a mere 36% of Democrats believe the economy is in poor shape, as opposed to 67% of Republicans and 54% of the all important Independents. Sorry, but these Democrats have to be either the most uniformed, ignorant individuals ever, the biggest partisan hacks or the folks that do not pay their fair share of taxes, have no skin in the game and are the leaches of society receiving government handouts.

Democrats have a much more optimistic view of the U.S. economy than either Republicans or unaffiliated adults.

Currently, just 36% of Democrats believe the economy is in poor shape, according to new Rasmussen Reports polling.  Nearly twice as many Republicans (67%) offer such a pessimistic view. So do 54% of those not affiliated with either major party.

What exactly would make anyone think the economy is getting better? The unemployment rate has remained at 8.2%, even though we know the real unemployment rate is closer to 15%. The last three months have shown no job growth as more people have gone on disability than received jobs.

How out of touch and partisan are Democrats? Only 28% of Americans think that the country is headed in the right direction under President Obama. That’s it, 28%. Overall, just 14% rate the economy as good or excellent. In the end, no serious or honest individual could actually say that the US economy is getting better, unless they are a socialist, they enjoy economic misery or are just saying so to benefit Barack Obama.

Mitt Romney Doubles Down and Slams Barack Obama’s Attack on Business Owners, Says “The Context is Worse Than the Quote”

Welcome to Barack Obama’s, “I voted for it before I voted against it”political train wreck.

Mitt Romney appeared in an interview with Larry Kudlow on the Kudlow Report las night. When asked about Barack Obama’s now infamous quote, “If you’ve got a business … you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen,”  Mitt Romney stated,  I found the full Obama speech more disconcerting that the actual line  ... “the context is worse than the quote”.  The foolish comment by Obama will turn out to be the President’s “I voted for it before I voted against it” mishap ala John Kerry fame and turn the tide of voter perception of what Barack Obama is really all about.

Full transcript at NBC:

KUDLOW: Why do you think President Obama, what did he mean, if you’ve got a business, you didn’t build it, someone else made that happen? He claims it’s being taken out of context. What do you think it means? Do you think this is Obama anti-business, anti-entrepreneur? Or do you think maybe he has been treated unfairly?

Gov. ROMNEY: Well, just read the whole speech. I found the speech even more disconcerting than just that particular line. The context is worse than the quote. The context, he says, you know, you think you’ve been successful because you’re smart, but he says a lot of people are smart. You think you’ve been successful because you work hard, a lot of people work hard. This is an ideology which says hey, we’re all the same here, we ought to take from all and give to one another and that achievement, individual initiative and risk-taking and success are not to be rewarded as they have in the past. It’s a very strange and in some respects foreign to the American experience type of philosophy. We have always been a nation that has celebrated success of various kinds. The kid that gets the honor roll, the individual worker that gets a promotion, the person that gets a better job. And in fact, the person that builds a business. And by the way, if you have a business and you started it, you did build it. And you deserve credit for that. It was not built for you by government. And by the way, we pay for government. Government doesn’t come free. The people who begin enterprises, the people who work in enterprises, they’re the ones paying for government. So his whole philosophy is an upside-down philosophy that does not comport with the American experience. And if we want to get people working again–and that’s my priority–if we want to get people working again, we have to celebrate success and achievement and not demonize it and denigrate the people who have worked hard, who are smart, who have made the kinds of investments to build a brighter future.

KUDLOW: But…

Gov. ROMNEY: Whether this is by succeeding in their job or starting a new enterprise.

KUDLOW: Do you think that–do you think that President Obama has demonized you and your experiences at Bain Capital? And do you–are you satisfied with your response, you know, to the timing when you left Bain Capital or investments in overseas operations and things of that nature? Do you think you have more work to do on your Bain Capital story?

Gov. ROMNEY: Look, I’m very proud of my experience at Bain Capital. I hope people understand that I was investing other people’s money for them and was compensated if we were highly successful. And the returns came to groups that included charities and college endowments. Those are the people who received the greatest rewards from our successes. We were also able–I saw a report by the current partners of Bain Capital over the history of the firm, which I helped start, they made some 350 investments, 80 percent of which grew. That’s the kind of record which I’m pretty proud of.

The most astute comment during Romney’s slamming of Barack Obama is as Doug Ross states, “its we who pay for the government”.   Interestingly enough, even after all the negative Obama campaign ads against Romney and Bain Capital, by a 63% to 29% margin Americans prefer Romney over Obama to handle the US economy and say Mit Romney’s background in business, including his time at the private equity firm Bain Capital, makes Romney capable of making good decisions, not bad ones, in dealing with the economy.

Also, according to a recent Rasmussen poll, 72% of Americans believe that small business owners are primarily responsible for their own success.
