Bill Kristol: Romney Remarks ‘Arrogant And Stupid’
Conservative columnist Bill Kristol lit into Mitt Romney in the Weekly Standard over his leaked remarks that 47 percent of Americans are hopelessly dependent on government and thus will vote for President Obama.
"It remains important for the country that Romney wins in November (unless he chooses to step down and we get the Ryan-Rubio ticket we deserve!)," Kristol wrote on Tuesday. "But that shouldn't blind us to the fact that Romney's comments, like those of Obama four years ago, are arrogant and stupid.
Noting that many of the 47 percent of Americans who don't pay income tax are core Republican groups like seniors and active military, Kristol added that "Romney seems to have contempt not just for the Democrats who oppose him, but for tens of millions who intend to vote for him."

All of Romney's supporters and not so avid supporters are projecting Romney's contempt for the "47%" onto someone else. His teabagger base who are on the government dole yet want to see everybody not them denied benefits are viewing Romney's remarks as some sort of GOP Manifesto and they are cheering him for it. They are too stupid to realize that Romney was talking about THEM. I wish I were more articulate, but I am furious.
