New Obama attack ads will focus on latest comment ....

[MindMover]

made in Virginia.... “If You’ve Got a Business, You Didn’t Build That?” .....

Of course the ads will focus on this line, however, as usual they will leave out the most important word .... If you've got a business, you didn't build that alone.

1. Wow! I can't wait!

2. i don't doubt it

Romney has lied worse than that in his ads, and the RW has already started lying on this quote, and the media is already helping them.

3. And then, "Mitt can't release his returns because they might contain something politically damaging"

That's what I hope they'll do, anyway. The ads are practically writing themselves these days.

4. Thank you. I needed that link exactly now

to post on FB for a relative.

P. S. I appear to be at war.

5. But he was talking about mentors, and teachers, and people who support you along the way.

I'm not sure.. are you saying Romney is going to use this?? That's silly. All the President has to do is release an ad with the actual content and context from this.

7. Attack ads are not about the truth ....

they are used to rally the believers .....

6. Also the Federal Government bailed Romney out for his Olympics

8. "If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen."

That's the full quote, complete with context. Anyone who uses first part of it only should be called out.

A Romney campaign spokeswoman told Fox the comment was “insulting” to small business owners.

Speaking as a VERY small business owner, I sent out 2000 emails today -- but I didn't send out 2000 emails today. I was ABLE to send out 2000 emails in one day because of the e-mailing software I used -- a product that "somebody else made happen." And if even one per cent of the "somebodies" to whom I sent the email buys what it's selling, they will make it "possible" for me to earn a couple of thousand dollars for a couple of hours of work. That's how ALL businesses are built -- with "somebodies" like employees, suppliers, vendors, and most important, customers. NOW do you get it, Mitt?
