Rmoney speaks truth to power in 'Bulworth' moment


In a rare and insightful moment of candor, the Republican Presidential Candidate was recorded speaking the truth about his views of Americans. The video was shot on May 17 at the Boca Raton, Fla., home of Marc Leder, a financier, who held a $50,000-a-person fund-raiser for him.

According to the Republican, Obama's voters rely upon public assistance and feel entitled to government housing, welfare, and food stamps. He called them all parasites who take no personal responsibility nor care for their own lives. The remarks smack of an elitist code of racism and class prejudice, as revealed by later recorded comments. Among other things, the governor admits pandering to independent voters in the center using the cynical emotional manipulations of politics. 


In humble rebuttal to the Republicans' dismissive remarks, local Coastal Democrat, Michael Russell, offered his opinions.
"There are 1% of Americans who will vote for the Republicans no matter what. They are a group of Americans who pay almost no taxes and are dependent upon government. These ne’er-do-wells who abuse the public tax-code and don’t pay taxes, will probably support Rmoney because they believe they are victims, and believe the government has a responsibility to care for them. They think they are the elite, entitled to their unearned wealth, entitled to their war profits, entitled to corporate welfare, entitled to their privileged position. They refuse to take responsibility for their own lives and we can't help them do it."  
Mr. Russell continued, "Our job as Democrats is not to worry about those aristocrats. We will never convince them they should take personal responsibility for their mistakes and care for the lives of their countrymen. Our job is to stop government from taking care of these freeloaders: cut military spending, stop bailing out the banks, close the tax loop-holes, and make them pay their fair share. This is a question about the fundamental direction of the country: Do you believe in a corporate-government-centered society that goes into debt to provide more and more benefits for the rich? Or do you believe instead in a just society where a unified people have the opportunity to pursue their dreams?”
