Romney Is Exposing His True Self
By Carole on Jan 9, 2012
Americans do not require that their presidents have humble origins. In fact, many of the men who have occupied the Oval Office have been sons of privilege who added to their family fortune before taking on the presidency. But in this time when so many are struggling economically, our president and our presidential candidates should at least be able to sincerely empathize with the plight of the unemployed, the underemployed and all those who are truly fearful over their financial future.

But he has yet to explain how his new plan can possibly work when virtually the same ideas at double the cost didn't work last time.

Ever hear the old proverb, "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime?" It is wise in its simplicity and valuable in its accuracy. It's also a very apt analogy for the difference between President Barack Obama's approach to the current unemployment crisis and that of House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio).
