Romney Vs. Everybody
At least he doesn’t pull that weak little bitch shit Hillary pulled when she was everyone’s target:
Excerpted from Fox News.com’s coverage of the last Repub debate, Sunday January 6:
But as candidates repeatedly mentioned Reagan, they also immediately dispensed with his 11th commandment not to speak ill of other Republicans. Mitt Romney, bombarded by his opponents in a debate just one night earlier, laid the first blow on his top New Hampshire rival, John McCain.
“One of the great lessons of Ronald Reagan is lowering taxes grows the economy,” said Romney, whose battling for what he has called a must-win victory in the Granite State.
“Senator McCain was one of two Republicans who voted against the Bush tax cuts. I believe the Bush tax cuts helped our economy grow and (is) one of the reasons that we’re not in a recession today. Senator McCain continues to believe … that that was the right vote to take, and I respect that that’s his view. I just happen to disagree with it.”
McCain responded that cutting spending is required to go along with tax cuts. He said that the economy is resilient, but spending is out of hand, especially with lawmakers appropriating for themselves millions of dollars in earmarks.
“For 24 years as a member of Congress, I have never asked for or received a single earmark or pork barrel project for my state and I guarantee you I’ll veto the bills, I’ll ask for the line-item veto and I will veto them and I will make the authors of them famous. And we’ll get spending under control and then we’ll be able to have some fiscal sanity and restore trust and confidence on the part of the American people,” McCain said.
Mike Huckabee also was a target of Romney, who said the former Arkansas governor raised taxes by $500 million net while in office.
“You make up facts faster than you talk so let’s slow it down,” Romney said, demanding an admission that taxes went up under Huckabee’s administration.
“I had a court order that said we had to improve education. Maybe you don’t have to obey the court in Massachusetts, I did in Arkansas. You know, education is a good thing for kids,” Huckabee replied to the former Massachusetts governor.
