“You Olympians, however, know you didn’t get here solely on your own power. For most of you, loving parents, sisters or brothers encouraged your hopes,” he said after praising the competitors in footage unearthed by NBC News. “Coaches guided, communities built venues in order to organize competitions. All Olympians stand on the shoulders of those who lifted them. We’ve already cheered the Olympians, let’s also cheer the parents, coaches and communities.”

Yes, Olympians and small business owners are EXACTLY the same. Is anyone actually buying this shit? The fact that the Obama campaign is even responding indicates he is losing.

Actually I think it is more insulting to the Athletes. Being one of the best in the world take a lot of hard work and personal time. Sure you can thank genetics, but personal sacrifice is huge.

Yes, "loving parents, sisters or brothers" is akin to government help. Genius.

The point he was trying to make is that American society has put things into place to help you succeed in business. This includes the government, which has created the Internet, low-cost (to you) infrastructure and regulations that help you secure reasonably priced financing. If you don't believe this to be the case, go to Guatemala and try to start a business. There's a reason you see so many immigrants starting businesses here...because they can.

My brother and sister clapping didn't make me run a sub 10 100m. I did (and genetics, so thanks mom and dad). The government building that road outside my business did help me grow a business.

Are you serious? The government building roads lead to my profitable business? Next you'll be telling me that because my customers have air to breathe I should be thanking whoever put it there. You clearly have never had the aptitude, drive, or intelligence to start a business of your own. If you did, you wouldn't be making the moronic claim you just made. Also, last I checked, MaBell was not the US Government.

wow they only had to go back an entire decade to find something on romney. Maybe they eventually will find something recent. Comparing the help/support of parents to olympians vs. obama saying the government made the small business owners success, not their intelligence and hard work.

No. The US Government only set AT&T's rates, forced it to provide long distance to independent local providers and nationalized it during WWII.

How about a little credit to the state governments?

America had NO federal government until 1781.

Even after then, the feds did not have shit to do the invention of the airplane, lightbulb, telephone.

FUck this jug-eared bitch.

Setting rates and nationalizing. Yeah, that is pro-business!

Yes, how do you get supplies, customers or anything? Magic?

Yeah you are right, there were no Government utility trucks installing phone lines, but they did create the regulations on how to build that network, gave tax breaks to ensure MaBell was profitable, and they did sort-of create that internet thing, so there is that...

Hey dipshit, he was Governor of MA until January of 2007. That was 10 years ago? Are all Romney haters as mathematically challenged as you? Or, are you claiming that being Governor of a state is not a job?

No, the Feds didn't invent the airplane, lightbulb or telephone.

However, they did help build the aerospace industry by buying airplanes for the military when no one else was buying them. The Feds also subsidized commercial air service buy creating Air Mail when there weren't enough passengers to make it viable.

As for the light bulb, who put the fucking electrical lines down to use the thing? Ever hear of Rural Electrification Authority?

As for AT&T, you can see my link above. The Feds also heavily subsidized the creation of wireless and broadband.

The fact is the Federal government plays an important role in commercializing new technologies that aren't commercially viable on their own in the beginning. The Feds helped create and nurse the Internet for two friggin' decades.

Airplane? Well they were really the only customer and drove the market through the military.

Those light bulbs are hard to light without those electric grids.

Same with phone.

In exchange for AT&T being a national monopoly. Yes, that is pro-business. If the government hadn't set those rates, small businesses wouldn't have been able to afford phone service in the early days. Because of the Feds, everyone had a phone, not just small portion of wealthy individuals able to afford high rates.

It is called hard work, customer service and innovative solutions. The government just didn't build a road and all of a sudden I was profitable. This claim is so ridiculous it is laughable that you are even claiming it as rational.

Regulations are oh so pro-business. If what you are saying is true, I should also be thanking the Wright Brothers, Henry Ford, Charles Parsons, Alexander Bell, Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla, Garrett Morgan, etc. Hell, I had nothing to do with making my own living. I owe it all to the government and every other person who made all this possible.

Now the government built electric grids? Why the hell do I get a power bill if the government is providing it to me?

I agree profit was from your hard work, in exchange for the governments role you pay a portion of that profit to taxes.

You should, but those those people wouldn't have a market if the government didn't help build roads, an electric grid, or spur demand through the military.

The government didn't build the electric grids, but it forced integration through regulation so that communities weren't bypassed and so that rates were affordable for consumers.

So, MY taxes (along with countless others) paid for the roads and that is the sole reason I have been able to remain in business for 10 years? Yeah, makes perfect sense. The Soviet Union tried that collective mentality. Look where it got them.

The electric grid was built by Wall Street investors.

Umm, I am not the one needing a history lesson. The government did NOT build the electric grid and your claim that it did is insanely stupid and telling about the rest of your insanely stupid assertions.

I just can't understand why you pro-big-gov folks are so eager for more federal government. Yes there are areas where it is necessary and has helped. It is clearly becoming to big and too powerful, it was never supposed to be this way. They managed to royally fuck us into the debt you see today and the massively bankrupt programs.

Roads and other stuff, the other stuff is up for argument. But lets see what happens if no one paid taxes, good luck with your business adventures then.

I don't think that is the point. No one is arguing for big government, but that government does play a role in developing markets. The level of involvement is up to debate.

There would be no commercial satellite industry without the Fed-supported space program. There would be no GPS, weather satellites or satellite television.

Jesus, you are stupid. Do you ever use FedEx or UPS? Do you know why you pay the rates you do and not more? GPS and weather forecasting play a part in that. Your insurance rates are set by an actuary who uses weather forecasting to make accurate predictions of insurance liability. Otherwise your rates would be higher. http://appsforactuaries.org/node/295

I'll be honest, you are pretty fucking stupid. You can argue that government is too big or spends to much time in areas it's not great at. But to suggest it has had no benefit for business just shows how fucking close-minded you are.

Dipshit. I am arguing that it is a retarded statement that is overinflating the role of government in the success of business. You clearly want to believe that the almighty government is the sole reason that business exists in this country. We get it. It is a stupid irrational thought, but we get it.

And yeah, the government is handling the USPS just peachy.

American society is NOT the government. It's we the people. You remember them right? Those people that agreed to allow the government to enforce the Constitution and the Bill of Rights? Especially to enforce that silly part about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The same people that allow the government to build roads and bridges with the people's money....good thing too since the government isn't in business to be a business.

Who created the internet? I see a long line of names on that list and none of them are the government.

How about we split the difference and just YOU move to Guatemala?

You don't seem to like the rest of the citizens of this country very much. You certainly don't give any of the businessmen in this country any respect.

Yeah, cause "the government" has a lot of it's own money to do all of these great things. lol

And plenty of business pay for roads and infrastructure either directly when building out some development or indirectly through taxes and/or specific fees and levies.

Pay attention now. I'll type slowly.

Everything that the government does is paid for by taxpayers. (OK, not everything but the revenue sources beyond that are relatively trivial.)

The problem with Ms. Warrens speech is that she acts as if these evil rich aren't paying their fair share when in fact they pay much more in taxes already. She uses the term fair very loosely. That is the problem with this liberal class warfare argument. Where does it end? 60% taxes? 80%? How about 99%?

The rich are greedy and want to stay in power, but they do create jobs and spend money in this economy too. Why keep scaring them off?

If you look at top CEO compensation, they typically receive pay of a million or two. The rest of the compensation is stock options. This means that they are paying a reduced tax of 15% on money that was never taxed as income. Plainly unfair, especially if you are asking average Americans to take cuts in Medicare, which they have paid into for 10, 20, 30 years.

A lot of truth in that. Most of those kinds of folks work experience is in jobs where money just kind of magically appears and there no real hard view of where it comes from or how it's spent. Money from foundations, grants, university budgets, etc., etc.

bad example...considering the oil industry gets the most government tit space to suckle from than anybody and the reason for the explosion was the company did not inspect a government mandated shut-off valve as they were supposed to according to regulation because it's expensive and time consuming.

Some people just hate Obama so much they refuse to acknowledge the truth. Everything he does is wrong to them.

Idiots continue to use ebonics in a way to mock him. Yet Obama is clearly more intelligent than them.

You didn't have to. Your posts drip with your ideology. And comparing anyone as far as blaming others with Obama's tendency to do so, just as you go on to do yourself, demonstrates that very clearly. Back to earth old man. I know the acid was good back then but time to get real. He's a failure. We don't care if it was Bush's fault. We want somebody who's going to fix it instead of making excuses. Time to turn the page.

Indeed, that little ellipsis in your from-the-net lying quote hides what Obama actually said. Why don't you look into it and come back here with the OTHER words?

I know, I know - that would be telling the truth and the truth is something the Insane and Imploding Party of Hatred (and No) simply cannot survive with.

You are liar.Typical of your ilk.

Fortunately, The People are getting tired of the crap (see the articles!); Obama is going to win by a landslide over the lying, plastice, amazingly fake Romney.

Oh, I do, and it is readily apparent that if you watch the whole speech that there are no words that can save him. Why do you think the Obama campaign is in full damage conrol mode? You won't address that issue, just like you wouldn't yesterday. OFA has no talking points to bail you out. As for ellipsises, Obama's entire Presidency is an ellipsis.

Your reply is a perfect example of the avoidance on facts that has characterized Romney's campaign!

We've heard much from the Republicans about how Obama's "economic plan" is bad for the country - over and over and over again. Then when asked "Okay, what would YOU do?", we get:

====
...I believe Americans will hear a lot more about Governor Romney’s plan, and if you want to see in depth what his plan is, you can certainly research that and look at that more in depth. But overall, there have been a number of new regulations, over-zealous regulations, on small businesses enacted by this administration, and we have to look at those things...
====

Q: I’m asking you specifically: How does Mitt Romney’s plan balance the budget by 2020?

WALL: I think, if you look at the economic numbers, I’m not an economist and I’m not going to play an economist, I think that Mitt Romney has a proven record of bringing economies back. He brought down unemployment as governor, he created jobs as a governor, he was effective as a businessperson overall, and I think you have to apply those concepts. [...] You can’t discount that, and you can’t discount the fact that we have to be able to look at how we begin solving the debt problem and bringing that down, and to do that, number one, is to start with streamlining our tax code, bringing down our marginal tax rate, the regulations that have been overburdensome, and making real true spending cuts.

Ain't that a giggle!?

============

So I ask you to quote the part of the Damining Obama Quote that the Insane and Imploding Party of Hatred (and No) has been spewing right left up and down and what do YOU reply?

====
Oh, I do, and it is readily apparent that if you watch the whole speech that there are no words that can save him. Why do you think the Obama campaign is in full damage conrol mode? You won't address that issue, just like you wouldn't yesterday. OFA has no talking points to bail you out. As for ellipsises, Obama's entire Presidency is an ellipsis.

Now THAT'S a giggle!

Not as giggly as your candidate. Obama's campaign has been an attack on Romney. Nothing more, nothing less. He has yet to tell us why HE deserves another term. You can't even tell us why. You simply resort to the politics of hate and destruction. Pretty sad for you and him.
