    Romney should have been a lawyer who sought plaintiffs in order to sue lenders into giving shitty loans that would never be repaid.

    That qualifies somebody for President.

    Oh, and having a car with a rusted out floor after graduating from Columbia and Harvard while doing that job.

    He's certainly more qualified than President Obama. I think we've seen after three-and-a-half years that he's crap at his job.

    You mean qualified at cutting jobs and making a profit for himself? YES! I want more profit for the rich and more jobs to be cut. That is exactly Romney's experience. At trimming the fat. He doesn't grow business, he grows profits for himself and his share holders.

    So, what you're saying is that he would cut inefficiencies from the Federal Government and turn a profit for the American taxpayer? It sounds pretty good to me.

    So if he cut jobs and made a profit by sending jobs overseas, would he then just kill 10,000,000 people to start his presidency, and talk about how great of a job he did at reducing unemplyoment?

    Is it your contention that his successful investments sent jobs overseas as part and parcel of its strategy? I wonder who was building and staffing all those Staples and Sports Authority stores?

    Private.

    Your turn: Do you manufacture something or are you sales person of some kind, or none of the above?

    Engineering in the software / internet field.

    And no, it isn't a bad thing to grow profits for the company and shareholders where I work.

    business was not the word I should have used before. I meant the company, ie the size of the employee force. Regardless of my poor choice of words, I don't know why I keep discussing finances and politics with you and maxie and the like. I think we're all fairly set in our opinions and it really makes me angry, like beating my head against the wall. I do not wish ill will on any of you, and I know you want what you think is best for our country.

    It's so much better to have a community organizer as president than a former governor.

    It's so much better to have a senator as President than a northern version of corporate pirate T. Boone Pickens.
