Default Mittens fochs up another one...

Mitt Romney, despite the massive job losses Bain Capital caused when he
was running it, calls himself a job creator. But that title is hard to
believe, especially since Romney is gushing about Hewlet-Packard CEO and
former California gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman on the same day it
is discovered that her company is killing American jobs.

In an interview with the National Review published on Thursday, Mitt
Romney said he wished Whitman were the Governor of California instead of
Jerry Brown, whom Romney insisted was doing things wrong. Romney praised
Whitman as an economic guru, telling the Review,

* * *“I wish Californians had elected Meg Whitman. She would have been
more successful and explained to Californians the need to cut back on
spending and eliminate unnecessary programs.”

Romney’s praise for Whitman couldn’t have come at more inopportune time,
as The New York Times reported *on the same day that Whitman intends to
eliminate 30,000 American jobs mostly through layoffs and forcing
workers into early retirement. Even though Hewlett-Packard made a
staggering $7.1 billion profit in 2011, Whitman is cutting these jobs in
America while leaving Hewlett-Packard jobs intact in China and elsewhere.


When will Americans wake up and run these con men out of 'town'?
