"I think it's fine to talk about those things in quiet rooms..." -- Mitt Romney
This guy is just like Ebenezer Scrooge!
Thanksgiving is around the corner, Christmas is coming and he's firing people. All just so he can outsource their jobs and offshore another buck.
Where does Romney's allegiance really lie?
I wonder:
He insults 47% of Americans
He sends good paying jobs overseas
He uses every tax shelter known to man
He pays as little taxes as humanly possible
He cannot wait to send jobs to Communist China
He stashes money overseas after harvesting profits
He pledges his allegiance to a lobbiest, Grover Norquist
He signs a contract to serve the interests of Grover Norquist
He wants to end Wall Street reform, Social Security and Medicare
"The place you put your money makes a pretty clear indication where your heart is!"
-- Mitt Romney
While Romney Debates, Bain Outsources Jobs to China!
The Republican party is chipping away at all of the major Democratic party accomplishments made over the past 100 years: Glass-Steagall, Social Security and Medicare.
Republicans are killing Democratic party achievements & doubling the budget of the military industrial complex! This is what they call, 'smaller government'.
The World According to Mitt
"[font color=DarkGoldenRod]The second topic, which is, you said, you get a deduction for taking a plant overseas. Look, I've been in business for 25 years. I have no idea what you're talking about. I maybe need to get a new accountant. But the idea that you get a break for shipping jobs overseas is simply not the case.[/font]" -- Mitt Romney
"[font color=RoyalBlue]It was humiliating to think of them as learning our jobs. But the thing for me, personally, that was even more humiliating, though, was that the week before they came. They took the American flag down that flew outside the plant, and the week after they left, they put it back up. Like we're supposed to be ashamed that we're Americans.[/font]" -- Sensata worker

The Sensata workers have had to train their replacements from China, and had their severance packages reduced. They are now fighting to save their jobs in Freeport, Illinois from being outsourced to China.

Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Evanston) has joined workers in asking Romney to show up and help.
Illinois' Governor Pat Quinn has visited the workers in Freeport, and asks Congress to pass the Bring Jobs Home Act. The Bring Jobs Home Act would eliminate the tax breaks that encourage companies like Bain and Sensata to close factories here and send the jobs and the work to countries like China, with the cash stopping off in the Cayman Islands for a quick tax cleansing. The Bring Jobs Home Act was recently filibustered by Senate Republicans.
Sensata workers collected 35,000 petition signatures, asking Romney to come to Freeport to help save the workers' jobs. This video shows what happened when they tried to deliver these petitions and a letter at a Romney campaign office in Madison. Instead of accepting the letter and petitions, the campaign locked them out and called the police.
