In the post-truth world where candidates like Mitts on R-money can just make shit up, and expects to get away with it, he ignores that we have records - paper records, Internet records, video records.
Mittens Etch-a-sketch thinks he can just lie, shake and rattle, and no one will notice anything from before. Just 'poof' and it's alllllllll gone.
Except it isn't.
Mittens doesn't want to talk about his time as governor of Massachusetts, because he sucked, except for Romneycare. Mittens doesn't want to talk about his taxes or his off-shore money parking. Mittens doesn't want to talk about putting his taxes in a blind trust, run by his wife, because he's said publicly that people actually still control them, and that it's for suckers. Up until just now, Mittens wanted ONLY to talk about how important his so very successful business career has been -- if you only measure it by how much money he made. Except that every time it comes up, issues of government hand outs and corporate welfare are raised, and he won't document exactly how many times he outsourced jobs or bankrupted successful long existing companies with impossible debt loads while sucking all the cash out of them, leaving them with underfunded pension funds and no benefits, and communities that were badly damaged economically. Every single one of the Romney ad 'we built it ourself, without help' ads has run, it turns out all those Romney supporters had the same kinds of assistance, and relied heavily on government contracts and government business welfare. So, boohooo hoo, NOW Mittens doesn't want to talk about his business practices either. When Mittens says he only wants to talk about issues, the problem is, he won't give any details. His policies consist of more corporate and personal welfare for the rich, more taxes on the poor and middle class, and no details whatsoever on how he plans this economic explosion of growth he promises but which experts consistently assert is an impossible promise. We're just supposed to take his assurances on his taxes, and on his economic policies that it will all happen. Don't ask how he plans to pay for anything, don't ask for specifics of any kind. Just shut up. Because Mittens doesn't want to talk about it. Mittens tells us we don't need to know. What that really means is Mittens doesn't want us to know, about any of it, because it is all bad.
Shhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! He DOESN'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT! Really!
TOO DAMNED BAD.
