Why Mitt Romney is Unlikable!

A lot is being said in the media about Mitt Romney not being "likable" or that he doesn't "relate well" to people. Frankly, we struggled to understand why. So after much research, we have come up with a Top Ten List to explain this "unlikablility."

Top Ten Reasons To Dislike Mitt Romney:

1. Drop-dead, collar-ad handsome with gracious, statesmanlike aura. Looks like every central casting's #1 choice for Commander-in-Chief.

2. Been married to ONE woman his entire life, and has been faithful to her, including through her bouts with breast cancer and MS.

3. No scandals or skeletons in his closet. (How boring is that?)

4. Can't speak in a fake, southern, "black preacher voice" when necessary.

5. Highly intelligent. Graduated *** laude from both Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School...and by the way, his academic records are NOT sealed.

6. Doesn't smoke or drink alcohol, and has never done drugs, not even in the counter-culture age when he went to college. Too square for today's America?

7. Represents an America of "yesterday", where people believed in God, went to Church, didn't screw around, worked hard, and became a SUCCESS!

8. Has a family of five great sons....and none of them have police records or are in drug rehab. But of course, they were raised by a stay-at-home mom, and that "choice" deserves America's scorn.

9. Oh yes.....he's a MORMON. We need to be very afraid of that very strange religion that teaches its members to be clean-living, patriotic, fiscally conservative, charitable, self-reliant, and honest.
10. And one more point.....pundits say because of his wealth, he can't relate to ordinary Americans. I guess that's because he made that money HIMSELF.....as opposed to marrying it or inheriting it from Dad. Apparently, he didn't understand that actually working at a job and earning your own money made you unrelatable to Americans.

My goodness, it's a strange world, isn't it?

************************************************** ***

Personal Information:

His full Name is: Willard Mitt Romney
He was Born: March 12, 1947 and is 65 years old.

His Father: George W. Romney, former Governor
of the State of Michigan

He was raised in Bloomfield Hills , Michigan

He is Married to Ann Romney since 1969; they five children.

Education:
B.A. from Brigham Young University,

J.D. and M.B.A. from Harvard University

Religion:
Mormon - The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints

Working Background:

After high school, he spent 30 months in France as a
Mormon missionary.

After going to both Harvard Business School and
Harvard Law School simultaneously, he passed the Michigan
bar exam, but never worked as an attorney.

In 1984, he co-founded Bain Capital a private equity
investment firm, one of the largest such firms in the
United States.

In 1994, he ran for Senator of Massachusetts and lost
to Ted Kennedy.

He was President and CEO of the 2002 Winter Olympic
Games.

In 2002, he was elected Governor of the State of
Massachusetts where he eliminated a 1.5 billion deficit.

Some Interesting Facts about Romney:

Bain Capital, starting with one small office supply store
in Massachusetts, turned it into Staples; now over
2,000 stores employing 90,000 people.

Bain Capital also worked to perform the same kinds
of business miracles again and again, with companies
like Domino's, Sealy, Brookstone, Weather Channel,
Burger King, Warner Music Group, Dollarama,
Home Depot Supply and many others.

He was an unpaid volunteer campaign worker for his dad's gubernatorial campaign 1 year.

He was an unpaid intern in his dad's governor's office for eight years.

He was an unpaid Bishop and Stake President of his church for ten years.

He was an unpaid President of the Salt Lake Olympic Committee for three years.

He took no salary and was the unpaid Governor of Massachusetts for four years.

He gave his entire inheritance from his father to charity.

Mitt Romney is one of the wealthiest self-made men in our country but
has given more back to its citizens in terms of money, service and time than most men.

And in 2011 Mitt Romney gave over $4 million to charity, almost 19% of his income....
Just for comparison purposes, Obama gave 1% and Joe Biden gave $300 or .0013%.

Mitt Romney is Trustworthy:

He will show us his birth certificate

He will show us his high school and college transcripts.

He will show us his social security card.

He will show us his law degree.

He will show us his draft notice.

He will show us his medical records.

He will show us his income tax records.

He will show us he has nothing to hide.

Mitt Romney's background, experience and
trustworthiness show him to be a great leader and
an excellent citizen for President of the United States.

You may think that Romney may not be the best
representative the Republicans could have selected.
At least I know what religion he is, and that he won't
desecrate the flag, bow down to foreign powers,
or practice fiscal irresponsibility.

I know he has the ability to turn this financial debacle
that the current regime has gotten us into.
We won't
like all the things necessary to recover from this
debt, but someone with Romney's background can do it.

But, on the minus side, he never was a "Community
Organizer", never took drugs or smoked pot, never
got drunk, did not associate with communists
or terrorists, nor did he attend a church whose pastor called for God to damn the US

I agree with everything you stated but it still amazes me how Obama got elected. What you wrote is truly American and the way our forefathers intended it. Obama in office proves how there must be a lack of Americanism & Patriotism. I have also heard that if you don't vote for Obama you must be racist. It has nothing to do with being racist but everything to do with Romney being best suited to save this countrys economy and preserve our freedoms.

Obama got elected because almost half of the country walks around with its hand out and is stupid and/or ignorant. These people are easily swayed by liberal educators and the liberal media. They don't understand, or don't care, that socialism makes you a slave to government. They value possessions more than they value their freedom. Great post, Jocko.

Well, I'm well educated, continue to work steady for the past 30+ years, earn well into the the six figures and I voted for Obama and will again. So much for your theory.

Those Obama folks will never learn... This was the greatest sham EVER pulled over on the American Public. Fast and Furious and now Libya didn't show you what this liar is all about? His record is empty and he can only put distractions out there, so you don't look at what he's done (NOTHING, except run this country into the ground) You can teach a lot in school but you can never teach Common Sense. You either have it or you don't. Reason and logic doesn't exist with these morons. Crabbyazz I believe that thinking like yours is what started "Fragging" back in the Nam days! You are a troll and very inciteful while sitting behind you anonymous computer. There's no one at this forum that thinks or agrees with much of anything you say. Some people realize when they're not wanted.... You, obviously are too stupid to know that. Take you tree hugging Green *** to your http://www.theliberalgunclub.com/ and do us a huge favor!

I knew that you were well educated from your posts. Well educated doesn't necessarily equate to intelligent. How you voted demonstrated your true level of intelligence. Anyone who would vote for progressive socialism over freedom maybe well educated, but he or she isn't very intelligent.

Words to live by. Lets ease up on the mud slinging and name calling.

Facts speak for themselves and we don't need to resort to sticks and stones.

We're better than that. Save that for one of the lesser forums. Like anywhere but here.

Just picked this quote semi-random for my sarcastic remark.

I just love how unpopular/dissenting views and opinions are so well tolerated here.

For my part I will tell you it sometimes is not easy. But what would be end up with if we just eliminated every post or poster that we don't agree with?

Several have told me that other forums are exactly like that, go with the flow or your out. Heck Jocko would have banned me years ago for being a rabble rouser and we all know that I'm not a rabble rouser and Jocko is just being hateful and picks on me cause I'm a derelict. Wow this is turning into the saddest story I ever wrote.
Maybe I could make it as a Country music writer afterall. My first love.

You must have misunderstood my statement. I was asking Jocko to be more tolerant of you and your socialist views. I'm a very understanding person.
