Obama invested in a VanGuard 500 index Retirement plan which happened to invest in some American Companies. He didn't even know where his money was being invested but it didn't matter because he wasn't outsourcing jobs himself.

So yeah.. it is different.. thanks for pointing that out.



For your bolded statement:

For two months, Obama and his allies have carpet-bombed a group of key swing states with negative ads painting Romney and Bain Capital, the firm he once headed, as ruthless profiteers, who ran some businesses into the ground while making money, or investing in companies that outsourced jobs to cheap-labor markets overseas.

Then you see fit to claim its not an attack ad, when the damn article says it an attack ad. Your caveat that its "true" so its not an attack ad doesnt hold water

Nice to see our priorities are in order.

Never ask yourself again what is wrong with this country.

Willard put his record at Bain as the centerpiece of his own campaign, now that it's being questioned he can't take the heat. Venture Capitalism is NOT ABOUT JOB CREATION, it's about Making Big chunks of money for investors by doing whatever is Necessary to make big chunks of money. Willard didn't run on his record as a Governor because he is running away from RomneyCare. He doesn't have anything else to run on so he touts his record as a businessman but then is dishonest and inflates his position to make it appear s if he has the experience to lead the Nation . So he made a few hundred Million taking peoples money and making it grow. Net Net he destroyed as many jobs as were created. He takes credit for Jobs that were created Years after he left the company. I don't care about his money or how he made it. But when he tries to tell me that it was that experience that gives him the edge I have to laugh. Not to mention that the Government is not now and never has been a Business. The United States is not trying to make a Profit. Businessmen who have sat in the big chair have been disasters for this country and Willard would be no better.

That is not an attack on Willard that's just plain hard truth.
