Since 2008 – Progress Through Politics

“Firms”

If you haven’t seen it, heard about it, and/or noticed the rapturous reviews from most of the Left you’ve been hiding under a rock this fine Saturday:

I love the end myself.  I’ve seen tweets from Bill Maher, John Fugelsang, Jim Newell and others call it “devastating,” “brilliant,” and “maybe the best political ad ever.”  And it is only July.

As Wonkette notes, this is not the apology Mitt was looking for while the Romney campaign calls it “an insult to America.”  And I couldn’t be happier.

Oh and “The Villages, FL” is just pure icing on the cake.

    Dems have been collecting oppo on Willard since forever. That’s how long he’s been running for POTUS. I’m sure there is a lot more where that came from. Obama is running a brilliant campaign. It’s different than last time around and he seems to be guns blazing all the time. Like they say, if you are explaining you are losing.

    The Moose is pretty moderate. We believe in competition, a social safety net, and the kind of American capitalism that meant, postwar, most people could get ahead.

    Bain Capital is not that kind of open market capitalism. It’s monpoly capitalism – more for those who already have plenty, the kind of Gilded Era globalisation which outsources and plays international arbitrage with taxation and regulation

    This Ad nails the malaise

    His damming peroratio:

    But at every point, Romney has surrendered to the fringe of his party. Weak. And now in his first tough encounter with Barack Obama, Romney is being shoved around again. This is not what a president looks like – anyway, not a successful president.

    …Republicans like to call regulations “job killing”. I admit the phrase is heart breaking and disparagingly clever, but the fact of the matter is that regulations create jobs and ultimately support the general welfare of all the people of our country.

    Look at it this way: If you have Social Security, Medicare, the right to vote, the right to an education, a clean park or a lake near you or an FDIC insured place to put your money. If you were given a disability check or a wheel chair ramp into the store you buy your food, if you like safe bridges, clean drinking water, clean air and a nontoxic environment, if you feel safe when you fly, or eat out, or give your child a toy, then it’s time you give liberals and “regulations” the credit they deserve.

    i thought it worth stealing.  and sharing.  i don’t know if it’s original or what, sound familiar to anyone?
