Try this thought experiment: You decide to donate money to Mitt Romney. You want change in the Oval Office, so you engage in your democratic right to send a check.
Several days later, President Barack Obama, the most powerful man on the planet, singles you out by name. His campaign brands you a Romney donor, shames you for "betting against America," and accuses you of having a "less-than-reputable" record. The message from the man who controls the Justice Department (which can indict you), the SEC (which can fine you), and the IRS (which can audit you), is clear: You made a mistake donating that money.
As the presumptive GOP nominee, Mitt Romney is relying on a cadre of high-dollar and special-interest donors to fund his campaign. Giving information about his real policy intentions and high-level access for cash, Romney and Republicans are working hard to pull in as much money as they can from wealthy lobbyists, corporations, and PACs. But just who are the people that Romney has called on for campaign cash?

Obama’s presidential campaign closed March with a colossal $104 million in the bank. The former Massachusetts governor, by comparison, has $10.1 million. Romney procured $12.6 million in March, however, by far his best fundraising month thus far. Obama, on the other hand, pulled in $35 million last month.

Obama's tactics remind me of Tricky Dick Nixon. This is disgusting. How anyone can support this man in what he doing to our freedoms in this country is beyond me... must be looking to destroy us.

Instead of shooting the messenger, who is the black man with a different sounding name, you should argue what he is saying, no? Look at Romneys donors, it's obvious who he stands for, the only problem is, come election time, Obama will have the same ones. Obama's playing politics here, nothing else. I think he's a terrible president, and no better than Bush, but certainly no worse.
Romney is a crook, Obama is too, he's hoping by pointing out that Romneys contributors are from goldman sachs you'll forget that he has at least a dozen members of goldman on his payroll, and you will, so his strategy will work. I don't agree with it, but at a point you people are responsible for your own decisions, it sucks that those who care and know the score have to suffer based on the uninformed, but that's the way the system works and the way they plan to keep it. We are screwed X 1111111111111111111111111
