Romney Silent on Bain Off-Shoring
"Man is the only kind of varmint sets his own trap, baits it, then steps in it." - John Steinbeckhttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/09/27/mitt-romney-sensata-tax-break_n_1920396.html
Mitt Romney's company, Bain Capital, is outsourcing 200 manufacturing jobs in Illinois to China. Romney's response, despite outcries from the soon-to-be-displaced workers? Nothing. Not a word. How hard would it be for him to get on a microphone and say "hey, you know, this shouldn't happen here." Hell, he could even try to lay it at Obama's feet for 'creating the environment for this to happen' - as laughable as that would be. Its not like like Bain has any compulsion to do what Mitt suggests, he hasn't been directly connected to Bain management for years. He won't even make a hollow statement for these people for political points. Christ.
