Kansas City's GST Steel had been making steel rods for 105 years when Romney and his partners took control in 1993. They cut corners and extracted profit from the business at every turn, placing it deeply in debt. When the company eventually declared bankruptcy, workers not only lost their jobs but were denied their full pensions and health insurance, and the government was forced to step in and provide a bailout.
Joe Scarborough went into a tizzy this morning when Mika was starting the show with this new ad. He ranted about how unfair it was and this is capitalism and people lose jobs.
"They want to give people like me a two hundred thousand dollar tax cut that’s paid for by asking thirty three seniors to each pay six thousand dollars more in health costs? That’s not right, and it’s not going to happen as long as I’m President." Barack Obama
If it bothered Joe this bad, this ad is a homerun!
I was born a Truman, but you can call me Pat.

This sounds like what Richard Gere's character in Pretty Woman was doing to the company he bought. Too bad Romney didn't meet a hooker with a heart of gold.

Except for the 'heart of gold' part, I'm pretty sure that Romney sees one in the mirror every morning.
He prostitutes his humanity every waking moment in search of wealth and power.
