This discussion moves in a bogus direction.
Romney's 47% are crap to begin with.
47 percent of the American people, this asshole says, do not take personal responsibility for their lives.
Doubtlessly he is just trimming his sails to the wind, but what is his defense? Does he claim the quote was out of context? Nope, he said it "wasn't elegantly stated". He said that he won't back away from what they definitely mean.
Romney propagates a problem that effectively is none. The rich like to think that everyone who wants work can get it. The rich like to think that living on state welfare is a situation people like. And in the US to boot, where the social net is pretty inexistent to begin with.
Entirely false claims (says 47%, the reality is 1%) that he won't back away from, insults to half of the American people and a profound, visible disgust towards anyone who wasn't born with a golden spoon in his mouth.
Vote for that guy. Seriously, if this president can't remind you of what's wrong in this world, no one can.
