I see I am going to have to counter the anti-Obama/pro-Rmoney talking points on FB...

The last few days there have been a few pro-Rmoney/anti-Obama type of postings on FB. I use it often enough that I feel I should at the very least begin to counter those and probably post a few facts as well.

My sister has gone all pro-Rmoney and someone who I thought was fairly progressive posted a picture of President Obama not having his hand over his heart as if that somehow does not make one Presidential. It's ridiculous.

Anyway, I'm going to start off with this...

http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/07/bain-capital-mitt-romney-outsourcing-china-global-tech

Rmoney's assertion that China needs a firm hand doesn't mean a lot since he was in bed with them and invested in a Chinese company that specialized in outsourcing US jobs.

Anyone worried about where a Presidents hand is, probably won't be swayed.

But it's good to see the truth being inserted where it can.

the only thing that matters to most of them is that he is white...sorry for my bluntness.
