Republicans on Romney and Bain Capital:

1. “The idea that you’ve got private equity companies that come in
and take companies apart so they can make profits and have people lose
their jobs, that’s not what the Republican Party’s about.” — Rick Perry
[New York Times, 1/12/12]

2. “The Bain model is to go in at a very low price, borrow an
immense amount of money, pay Bain an immense amount of money and leave.
I’ll let you decide if that’s really good capitalism. I think that’s
exploitation.” — Newt Gingrich [New York Times, 1/17/12]

3. “Instead of trying to work with them to try to find a way to
keep the jobs and to get them back on their feet, it’s all about how
much money can we make, how quick can we make it, and then get out of
town and find the next carcass to feed upon” — Rick Perry [National
Journal, 1/10/12]

4. “We find it pretty hard to justify rich people figuring out
clever legal ways to loot a company, leaving behind 1,700 families
without a job.” — Newt Gingrich [Globe and Mail, 1/9/12]

5. “Now, I have no doubt Mitt Romney was worried about pink slips —
whether he was going to have enough of them to hand out because his
company, Bain Capital, of all the jobs that they killed” — Rick Perry
[New York Times, 1/9/12]

6) “He claims he created 100,000 jobs. The Washington Post, two
days ago, reported in their fact check column that he gets three
Pinocchios. Now, a Pinocchio is what you get from The Post if you’re not
telling the truth.” — Newt Gingrich [1/13/12, NBC News]

7. “There is something inherently wrong when getting rich off
failure and sticking it to someone else is how you do your business, and
I happen to think that’s indefensible” — Rick Perry [National Journal,
1/10/12]

8. “If Governor Romney would like to give back all the money he’s
earned from bankrupting companies and laying off employees over his
years, then I would be glad to then listen to him” — Newt Gingrich
[Mediaite, 12/14/11]

9. “If you’re a victim of Bain Capital’s downsizing, it’s the
ultimate insult for Mitt Romney to come to South Carolina and tell you
he feels your pain, because he caused it.” — Rick Perry [New York Times,
1/8/12]

10. “They’re vultures that sitting out there on the tree limb
waiting for the company to get sick and then they swoop in, they eat the
carcass. They leave with that and they leave the skeleton” — Rick Perry
[National Journal, 1/10/12]

It's interesting that you have suddenly found Newt Gingrich to be a
credible source of information. What a tangled web you weave.

Personally I wouldn't trust Gingrich to officiate a dog fight.

Where did I state I thought Gingrich credible? All I am doing is
offering up opinions of fellow Republicans of the presumed nominee.
I don't think any of the GOP bozos are credible, and least of all
Romney, who turns around and around on his positions faster than a
quasar and is more of a liar than Sarah Palin.

Why not offer yourself up to be roasted. Rec boats would come to life to
honor you with accolades.

You will be left with a bunch of lazy people wonder where their next
meal is coming from and wanting to know why the inside of their house is
hot or cold and the will be pushing all of the buttons on the remote
control trying to figure out why the cable isn't working.

They will be way too worried about where there next meal is coming
from to get involved in that kind of mud slinging.

And they are real jobs that create goods and services, assist with the
balance of payments, pay taxes, hire college graduates and a lot of
other good things.
