Dear President Obama, Please do not sit down with Romney [View all]

Respectfully, after Romney's horrendously racist summation to his donors, as to why he thinks he lost, sitting down and speaking with him would be slap in the face to those who voted for you.

Mr. Romney has forfeited any right to have any input at all. Perhaps you and your team think it's good politics and a good optic to have Mr. Romney to the White House. I don't believe that's so. It legitimizes the racist and classicist tripe that both Mr. Romney and Representative Ryan are spreading.

Sincerely,

a supporter.

Agreed, although I see it as unlikely, anyways. bluedigger Nov 2012 #9

He sat down with McCain too. BlueToTheBone Nov 2012 #13

McCain didn't utter the racist rubbish that Romney is spewing. cali Nov 2012 #21

After the racist shit Romney spewed today, I'd be very surprised if he would sit down with forestpath Nov 2012 #29

I tend to think Obama walks on water, even when I am disagreeing with him, but if he sat down with Squinch Nov 2012 #32

Rmoney will never agree to the sit down and Obama knows it krawhitham Nov 2012 #34
