Here's a great piece from Powerline.
John Sununu is really emerging as a conservative media star. He takes no prisoners. Mitt's campaign could take a few lessons from Mr. Sununu.
There was a discussion with several business owners who were outraged about the President's recent comments that business people didn't build their businesses on their owns. The old "who built the roads" meme was heavily in force.
These people get it. Read the whole thing.
"David Napier owns a catering business in Richmond. He noted that Obama
doesn’t seem to understand that 100% of the government’s revenue comes
from business activity. Who does he think paid for all of those roads
and bridges? Government is entirely dependent on business, not the other
way around."
Amen.
"The last small business person was Renee Amoore, who owns a health care
and business consulting firm in Pennsylvania. She was white-hot, her
voice quivering with anger. Where did Obama get his comments, she asked.
She is blessed, but she is blessed because she has sacrificed. "
"Obama’s
statement is reprehensible, he doesn’t know what is going on. He doesn’t
understand business or the economy. Romney understands business because
he has lived it. People think that because I am an African-American
woman I am supposed to vote for Obama, she said."
"Well, I have been an
African-American woman for a long time, and I’m not voting for him. 23
million Americans are out of work and incomes are falling. I’m working
hard, Obama isn’t. He doesn’t know what hard work is. \"
"Her husband
suffers from ALS, and she is her family’s sole support."
"I need Mitt
Romney, she said. \"
"Hope and change? I’m hoping for a change. "
The article is excellent, these business owners are insightful and rightfully outraged.
And of course-you likely will not see any of this on the news, unless it can be mulched into a pro-Obama talking point by his many mainstream media accomplices.
