Mitt Romney: It’s Time For President Obama ‘To Apologize To America’

[big_dog]

Source: CBS Washington DC

Romney, the former Massachusetts governor who lost the 2012 presidential race to Barack Obama, said it has been a tough time for the country since that election.

“It’s time for him to apologize to America,” Romney said of Obama, speaking to several hundred GOP supporters. Romney was born and raised in Michigan and is the son of former Michigan Gov. George Romney. While the crowd provided supportive applause to all of the event’s speakers, it was Romney who drew the most enthusiastic response, earning more than one standing ovation. Democratic activists protested outside the building, noting Romney’s and Land’s opposition to the auto industry bailout — a topic that came up later in the day at a campaign event for Bobby McKenzie, a counterterrorism expert running for Congress in a Republican-leaning district outside Detro

1. It's time for you to STFU, Romney

[uhnope]

26. Apologize for beating me!

unbelievable. Would be funny if it didn't reflect so badly on US politics and the collapse of the GOP into deranged idiocy

[Lulu KC]

52. great minds

Please please PLEASE stop, Mitt!

[yuiyoshida]

72. My thoughts exactly ...

MITT you are irrelevant, please kindly drop the mic and back away.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

94. Romney should apologize for putting his millions offshore

[SoapBox]

2. Bush, Bush, Bush...

WMD's

When is the War Criminal ASSHOLE, going to apologize to America?

[TwilightGardener]

3. Sore looooooser. Mittens should apologize for being a piece of shit.

[Dawson Leery]

4. Still waiting for war criminals Bush, Cheney, Rice, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, etc

to apologize.

[JHB]

32. Or even to admit they made any mistakes at all.

[maddiemom]

46. Can't bear to ever watch the second one again. "My line of work" must be one of

the strangest references to being "leader of the free world (sic)" ever used repeatedly by said "leader of the free world."

[CherokeeDem]

5. Apologize for what????

Romney should apologize to us for having to endure his stupidity and his annoying wife.


I am so done with these people. What the hell is wrong with the citizens of this country?

[TRoN33]

9. K&R. I agree with you about people who voted for GOP out of fear and hate.

[mountain grammy]

35. Agreed!

[maddiemom]

48. Glad you didn't bring up her poor horse: innocent in all this.

[Dont call me Shirley]

6. You got that backwards Mitt. It's time for you to apologize to America for destroying our

manufacturing base, our good paying jobs, our retirement accounts, our future.

[big_dog]

16. Mittens should apologize to his dog for the family vacation

when Willard forgot where he was at

[Dont call me Shirley]

19. Sociopaths abuse animals.

[maddiemom]

51. Mitt isn't a sociopath (at least for his dog abuse): just a clueless, non empathetic,

thoughtless asshole. Just the person who should be POTUS (not that there's anything wrong with that).

[Dont call me Shirley]

114. Add lack of compassion, sympathy, true generosity, ability to freely share, thieving conman,

Pathological liar, unwise, braggadocio, absent humility.....this could go on possibly for days.

[jmowreader]

77. What do you mean "forgot"?

Willie M. not only knew exactly where that dog was, he intentionally put him up there.

[George II]

7. Yeah, since bush we're just about out of his two wars (although slowly increasing)....

....DJIA is more than DOUBLE what it was when Obama took office, unemployment is LOWER than it was when he took office, and countries all over the world respect us again.

Yeah Mitt, he should apologize for doing a GREAT JOB!

[Enrique]

8. what's eating Mitt?

Romney, the former Massachusetts governor who lost the 2012 presidential race to Barack Obama,

[Scairp]

10. What a pluperfect asshole

You apologize Mittens, for being a lying scumbag who has gotten wealthy off the backs of the rest of us.

[groundloop]

11. That a$$hole IS running again....

I didn't expect him to, but I'd say that this sort of rhetoric proves it, especially since he's pretty much kept out of the spotlight until very recently. He wants the presidency so bad he can taste it, he just can't force himself to stay away.

WHERE'S YOUR TAX RETURNS MITT?

[olddad56]

14. I hope he does run again. He will lose.

[japple]

24. Mitt and his family thought it was all some sort of mistake. They

were entitled to win the election because they were, you know, entitled. Everyone remembers the shock and awe from the Romney family on election night when they were denied their rightful place as King/Queen of the USA. Toughsky-shitsky, Mittsky, you're gonna get fooled again!!1!!!111!!!!

[Manifestor_of_Light]

76. They thought Divine Right of Kings applied to American elections.

And he was shocked when he found out he could not buy the Presidency, unlike everything else in his life.

[pangaia]

17. Maybe it is St Ann(e) who is pulling the strings.

I suspect she wants it more than he does, if that is possible.

[maddiemom]

56. How could that possibly be true? Anne HATED all that groveling around for

the peasant vote (or whatever she called "campaigning&quot .

[CTyankee]

107. And remember when they were calling her Mitt's "secret weapon'?

Just the thought of a weaponized Ann Romney wearing a red dress creeps me out...

[still_one]

21. He may want to, but he won't get his party's nomination

[JHB]

39. He'll try to brazen it out again

That'll be something to hit him with: "You've had four years to clean them up and you still haven't bothered? Just what are you hiding? Don't whine about "privacy", you knew this was coming. If you wanted privacy that much you wouldn't be running. You're own father set the gold standard for disclosure with 12 years worth because, quote "One year could be a fluke, perhaps done for show, and what mattered in personal finance was how a man conducted himself over the long haul.” You tried to get away with just two, and neither one of them was actually complete!

How many investment have you made where the prospectus said "just trust me on this"?"

[Xipe Totec]

12. We're so sorry, Uncle Albert

[maddiemom]

61. Love that you posted this! It wasn't the Beatles, though, but Paul in the Wings era.

I've not found a video of "Uncle Albert...Hands Across..." Assume you couldn't either (Waaay off topic).

[pkdu]

78. Google " wings uncle Albert video" ...... There's a lot . Nt

[maddiemom]

105. I did. Thank you.

[lob1]

13. How much do you pay in taxes, Mitt?

Seems it's zero most years. Tell us again about the 47% that are "takers".

[Fred Sanders]

15. This time Mitt will agree to sell his soul to Fox News and the religious right as well as the 1%?

There is competition for that role.

[Grassy Knoll]

18. WaaaaWaaaWaaaa......

[ailsagirl]

31. GOOD ONE!!

[Veilex]

37. ...

I just about did a spit-take

[SunSeeker]

57. LOL! Perfect. nt

[bvf]

71. Love it!

Priceless expression. Looks like mid-dump.

[senz]

85. That is brilliant, Grassy. (n/t)

[Major Hogwash]

86. ^^Post of the Day!^^

This is hilarious!!!



My hat's off to you, sir, for bringing it here to DU!!!

[still_one]

20. What a fucking asshole. It is time for the media to ignore you and your worthless bullshit

[Wait Wut]

22. I'm not a violent person...

...but he's one of the reasons I'm not allowed to have a slingshot. That big wrinkled forehead is a perfect target.

Come on, I'd just use the rubber pellets.

[jaysunb]

23. It's time Mitt Romney to "sit his sorry ass down"

.

[L0oniX]

25. Right after you fucking apologize to all the people who lost their jobs because of your assholeness.

[Phlem]

27. Fuck the hell off Mittens!

POS.

[TheCrankyLiberal]

28. Maybe Romney should do the same...

And apologize for the lives he destroyed for the sake of venture capitalism. Or maybe apologize for the played out strategy he used to run a placating, patronizing campaign that in turn made his few working class supporters look like easily misled boobs and morons! Maybe he should give a big fat "I'm sorry" to the some odd 48% of America that he accused of looking for a handout and being the problem...

The one deserving of his apology the most is the American. The rich one, the poor one, the illegal one. The ones whom look to the flag and it's promise as a source of comfort in a world that on all fronts seek annihilate the weak and starve the poor. A world poisoned by global industry and unfettered capitalism. The poor and weak aren't stupid, they see the conservative's carrot (riches) and stick (impassable inequality) and know it is a shell game that can't be won by voting the same familiar white face into leadership day in and day out....

Take my babbling for what you will but know that the world's problems isn't fixed by tax cuts, corporate entitlements or deregulation. These things exist to protect us by multinational, powerful, corporate entities that view us more as batteries for their machine than as actual people..

[blue neen]

38. !

I liked your post, Cranky.

[maddiemom]

68. Agree with your "babbling" Mitten's run was a wonderful example of the exact

wrong person running as a representation of what's hurting our country. The big BUT, however, is whether this attitude of the voters will continue. President Obama is a constant disappointment for many voters who have individual issues. As a local political volunteer, I'm encouraged and surprised by many voters I talk with. I'm also discouraged by many others. In the last presidential campaign I talked with an amazing number who knew little about Romney, and were supporting him just because he was a Republican. Obama had to deal with issues other than his political affiliation.

[freshwest]

73. Awesome. Kicking here!

[Spitfire of ATJ]

91. For that matter, the GOP should apologize to it's loyal Country Western Base for running Mitt.

[C Moon]

29. Standing ovations? I'm sure his ego is back in full swing—you'd better believe he's running in 2016.

Hopefully it will be another ugly primary for the cheating, lying beasts.

[Itchinjim]

30. Go fuck yourself, Willard.

Sideways.

[blackspade]

33. Oh fuck off.

Maybe he should apologize to all the workers that he layer off.
At least Obama has been trying to get them jobs.

[wolfie001]

34. Assface should apologize to the American people for........

....."not paying taxes for ten years." Harry Reid knocked that one outta the park! ouch

[RufusTFirefly]

36. In the Chutzpah Olympics, Mittens might not win the Gold. But he would definitely medal. n/t

[JHB]

40. Playing for 'Amercia'

[RufusTFirefly]

47. Medals are people, my friend.

Besides, I think he'd probably be playing for the Cayman Islands anyhow.

[turbinetree]

41. Apologize

Why don't this right wing hypocrite apologize for taking the firm Solendra and dismantling the firm after his vulture capitalist hedge fund bought the firm and then have his communist Chinese overlords he sides with come over a ship all the tooling over to an oligarch communist country, this piece of work is not a patriot and then gets a standing ovation why for what reason?
He pays 10% on taxes or less on investment earned capital and hides the rest in off shore accounts because of tax loop holes set up by the DO NOTHING CONGRESS and shifts the tax unto the middle class and poor.
Heh! Mittens I am the 47% and PROUD of IT.
Why aren't you demanding that they the republican henchmen from Wall Street turn the water back on in Detroit?
Michigan are you really that proud he his from your state, what has he really done for the state, I mean really, what has he done?
He supported the collapse of the auto industry and over 3 million jobs being loss>

[maddiemom]

42. "Sore Loserman" indeed. Romney and McCain are setting new standards

for the loyal opposition, while Dubya (remarkably quiet until this time) blames President Obama for honoring his own agreement re: Iraq. Race may have something to do with it, but the previous Clinton witch hunts make it pretty obvious that the Republicans are declaring war when losing presidential elections. Our system is off the rails.

[onecaliberal]

43. Dear Loser...

You sir are a vile POS. We want you to go away. If you had one iota of self awareness you would realize how completely void of morals you are. You are a shiny example of everything wrong with America. We loathe you and everything you stand for.

[GeorgeGist]

44. Racist shit.

[BeyondGeography]

45. He's either still in denial or bargaining

This is taking some time.

[Elmer S. E. Dump]

49. Always the victim that needs to apologize.

[Thinkingabout]

50. Perhaps Mitt should apologize for raiding the pension funds of companies which had them

Set up and paying back the $44 million we had to pay because he raided the fund. It would also be good to start paying taxes.

[marble falls]

53. Its time for Mitt to quit speaking from his ass.

[davidpdx]

54. Romney can go fuck himself

[Kalidurga]

55. Obama to America

"I am sorry you all had to see that. But, Mitt insisted on running. I tried not to beat him too badly, but he insisted on talking."

[hibbing]

58. oh for fuck's sake

Between the idiot son chiming in on current events and now this dipstick I don't know how to keep my sanity.

Peace

[kestrel91316]

59. For what? For being a black man in the White House?

[Spitfire of ATJ]

60. Yup,....he's gonna run again.

[bvf]

89. Proceed, Governor. n/t

[FlatStanley]

62. Excuse me while I blow chunks.

[quakerboy]

63. so many ways to go with this

He should apologize to America for not Prosecuting war criminals from previous administrations. He should apologize for not vigorously prosecuting the higher ups in the banking industry.

In my opinion, he should apologize for not moving quicker and more decisively on legislation in his first term. He should definitely apologize to America for wasting 4 years trying to make deals with the Republican party and ignoring liberals.

It looks like he will owe some apologies for reintroducing us to Iraq.

But its a fair bet that whatever Romney thinks he should apologize for is irrelevant to reality.

[FlatStanley]

64. I just think I'm gonna barf

[mnhtnbb]

65. What an arrogant a$$hole.

[oldandhappy]

67. We forgive you Mittsy. You know not what you way.

[supercats]

69. It"s Time For Romney.....

To get water-boarded and shut the fuck up!!!

[Manifestor_of_Light]

79. Where's Jesse Ventura's phone number when you need him?

He knows how to waterboard people.
He'd be perfect for a hot date with some cold water and a bucket with Mitt.

Exact quote: "Give me an hour in a room with Dick Cheney so I could waterboard him, and in an hour I'll have him confessing to the Sharon Tate murders."

[KauaiK]

70. Fuck you Mittens and the white horse you pranced in on!!!

[SmittynMo]

74. What is it with these

Last edited Sat Oct 4, 2014, 08:51 AM - Edit history (1)

far right arrogant, ignorant, loudmouth pricks that they just can't keep their mouths shut? Especially after losing big time in the last election. What a fucking crybaby. And yes, as indicated in many posts earlier, he and all the other loudmouths owe all Americans an apology. It just blows me away as the level of arrogance.

[indivisibleman]

75. President Obama has been nothing but a gentleman with Mitt and those like him.

And this is the way they pay him back with complete contempt and disregard. People that behave like this are just sore losers, jealous, conceited and immature.

[Jack Rabbit]

80. It's time for Mitt the Twit to apologize to the workers whose jobs he sphipped overseas

No matter how disappointed I get with Obama, having a vulture capitalist in the White House is out of the question.

[JHB]

81. Remember the Chinese factory in the 47% tape?

The one about which he said he asked about the fences and walls and the guy said it was to keep people out because ssooooo many people wanted to work there?

Show of hands: out of the several things that bit may have had you thinking, was one of them:
"And you just believed what the salesman told you?"

[ucrdem]

82. Right, apogize for not letting America go bankrupt

so Mitt and his vulture buddies could snap it up for pennies on the dollar.

[stage left]

83. It's time for Romney to go away.

No, it's past time. Way past.

[senz]

84. Mitt & John just can't stop sucking

on those sour grapes. Bad losers. Baaaad looosers.

So arrogant of Mitty to think he can tell the President to apologize to the American people. Especially when he himself doesn't even like the American people!

[trusty elf]

87. .......

[url=http://postimage.org/][img][/img][/url]

[BlueMTexpat]

88. Preaching to the converted, as usual.

If anyone should apologize to America, it is the entire GOP establishment, especially since 2001.

[MBS]

115. + 1000 n/t

[drynberg]

90. Perhaps Rmoney was confused, as he needs to apologize for his nasty existence...but

I personally would prefer to just have him disappear like the loser and liar that he is...

[SmittynMo]

92. Rmoney? Confused?

Perfect. Bingo!!!

[notadmblnd]

93. Doesn't he have to supervise the building of a car elevator or something?

How about STFU and go count your $$ creep?

[Paladin]

95. Hold your breath until that happens, O.K., Mitt? (nt)

[The Wizard]

96. It's time for Willard

Mitt Rmoney to eat shit and bark at the Moon.

[alcibiades_mystery]

97. Did you cry on the day you joined DU, big dog? Did you cry later that night?

Didn't work out the way you had planned, poor thing.

[NastyRiffraff]

98. I am so tired of Mittens

The 47% still hates you, Mitt. Just go away.

[vkkv]

99. Ah Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!

I had no idea Mittens could be SO funny!

[merrily]

100. I'm waiting for Bushco's apology.

[DinahMoeHum]

101. Up yours, Mittens.

[3catwoman3]

102. It's time for Willard...

...to STFU!

[Gothmog]

103. Romney is an idiot

Romney appears to want people to draft hm to be the 2016 GOP nominee. This is a stunt to appeal to the idiots who make up the gop base

[unblock]

104. yeah. sorry i made the stock market more than double. sorry i cut unemployment in half.

sorry i got private health insurers 10 million extra customers.

with your plan, rmoney!

[santamargarita]

106. It's time for you to kiss my ass, Rommey!

I don't give a fuck as to spelling this assholes name correctly.

[Kingofalldems]

108. Looks like a headline from Free Republic or the Cave.

Yet it's posted here on DU.

[Arkana]

109. Oh, Mitt.

Look, man, we get that you're still butthurt about 2012. We get that you can't stomach the fact that you never avenged Daddy George from 1968. We get that you can't get over the fact Americans didn't choose your creepy, whitebread clan over the Obama family.

But you lost. Fair and square. Americans have now NOT chosen you three times. We just don't like you, Mitt. We don't like you, we don't like your face, we don't like your snotty, aristocratic, holier-than-thou wife, we don't like your creepy-ass kids. My sympathies for Ann's illness, but last I checked, MS didn't have "snobby douchiness" as a side effect.

But most of all, we don't like this irrational hatred you have for anyone who isn't as rich as you. We can't stand your utter inability to connect with other human beings. And most of all, we can't fucking STAND that you won't just crawl back into the hole you oozed out of. Go away, Mitt. Go away and never darken our doorsteps again.

[DisgustipatedinCA]

110. Tax returns, dickweed. Until then, shut your useless mouth. Questions?

[Aerows]

111. Why does Mitt Romney

think anyone gives a shit what he says? Because I certainly don't.

[Vinca]

112. Why won't this guy and his dancing horse go away?

Buy another car elevator . . . or maybe a dancing horse elevator . . . and spend time watching it go up and down. That's more than most Republicans do with their time.

[MrScorpio]

113. Didn't he lose this state? nt
