Question Mark and the Mitterians

What in God's name is wrong with Willard? 

Can anyone explain to me how a man who is running for the presidency can act the way he does?

We can stipulate that Mittie is a rich man having been born into wealth but having earned his own by being a successful businessman.

But why flaunt it? 

We are experiencing a horrible recession with some economists suggesting that we may be about to go into a second phase, a so-called, "Double-Dip."

Millions are out of work and the unemployment rate has stagnated at 8.2 percent.  People are losing their homes and state and local governements are struggling to provide services.  Congress is flirting with legislation that will further cut the programs that many Americans depend upon for their daily well being.

And The Mittigator seems to be, as they say, "tone deaf", to the plight of the ordinary citizens he wants to lead.

Now, to be "fair and balanced", Romney may have some good ideas lurking in the recesses of his mind but how can we trust he will implement sound policies that will help ALL of us if we can't feel that he understands, and can relate to, us.

I am not a rich man, by any measure, so I can't relate to thoroughbred horses or summer homes or million dollar paydays.  I am grateful to have a job and to be able to make my expenses (barely...) and spend time with my wonderful family.

If I can't relate to Willard, then how can he relate to me?  He has NEVER suffered.  He doesn't suffer now.

He hob nobs with his peers all of whom are as rich, if not richer than he is.  You don't see him standing in line at Walmart to buy toilet paper at a discount.  Not in a million years.

If he would only demonstrate an understanding of the situation we ordinary Americans find ourselves in, then maybe I would be able to listen to his words.

But all I hear is the jibberish of the master condescending to the servants in his employ.

Off shore accounts and outsourcing of jobs.  Takeover artist throwing thousands out of work on behalf of profits for the already wealthy.

And the Republicans accuse Obama of fostering class warfare?  They sure have balls, I'll give 'em that.

You bet it's class warfare.  But it's not Obama who is waging it.  Irony of ironies, it's perpetuated by the ruling 1% in order to preserve the status quo.

And Mitt Romney is their poster boy. 

If you can't see that then you deserve what you will get in November if he's elected.

"Let them eat cake..."

Sound familiar...?
