Romney Lauds Poland as an Economic Model
Quote:
WARSAW — Mitt Romney delivered a lyrical speech here in Warsaw on Tuesday afternoon,
lauding Poland as a model for other nations in the throes of economic uncertainty.<snip>

“I believe it is critical to stand by those who have stood by America,” Mr. Romney said.
“Solidarity was a great movement that freed a nation.
And it is with solidarity that America and Poland face the future.”
<snip>
...and as I and my friends break America's unions and ship their jobs to China and India, we hope our friends in Poland can learn from our example.

Hmmm... interesting choice. Looks like it will be class warfare.

Romney/Ryan - "What's our is ours. Anything that's left might be yours.......for now"

Either way it spells R&R for them and likely T&T (toil and trouble) for us.

That girl wouldn't be wearing a Chinese uniform if Romney was President.

Yes, and then she would have a choice of (four) more colors.

Both Romney and Ryan pressed the fact that Ryan was a man who got things done in Congress. The things he got done in congress in his 13 years? Re-naming a post office and an excise tax on arrows.

Was that the removal of a tax on wooden arrows ?
If so, all Oregon businessmen LOOOOOVE him.


Ummmm.....
There's only one company (3 employees) in Oregon that makes wooden arrows.
