Vice President Biden (file)
On the campaign trail today in Iowa, Vice President Biden hammered home the image of Mitt Romney of as a job creator — overseas only. "You got to give Mitt Romney credit. He's a job creator," Biden said, then going in for the punch. "In Singapore. And China. And India."
"Here's the bottom line, folks: Bain and their companies, they made a great deal of money outsourcing and off-shoring American jobs," the vice president told a few hundred people gathered in Waterloo, a town with a John Deere factory. "Yeah, they made a lot of money, but in the process they devastated whole American communities here in the heartland and back in my home state of Delaware."
Calling it a "cruel irony," Biden also criticized the former Massachusetts governor for paying people abroad to answer calls from unemployed residents of his state, inquiring about food stamps.
Newly released ads from the Obama campaign paint Romney as a shrewd businessman with no heart for American workers. The ad's tagline: Do voters "really want an outsourcer-in-chief in the White House?" Those are running in swing states of Iowa, Ohio and Virginia.
Romney spokeswoman Andrea Saul accused Biden of doubling down on Obama's "misleading" attacks in order to "distract voters from the president’s disastrous economic record."

I guess we have one candidate who sends jobs out of the country and a President who lets immigrants stay here illegally and take the jobs, not much of a choice.
Once again, let's make this clear. He can only be an outsourcer if he sends jobs out of his native country. Since Willard Mitin Romney is a Mexican national, born on his family estate in Mexico, faked birth certificate, etc., as I've demonstrated in many posts, he's actually been a great success in creating jobs for his home country. That's Mexico.
His secret immigration policy is also easy to figure: La Reconquista.
All you need to know, to figure this all out, is that one key fact. Willard Mitin Romney, El Candidato Manchuriano.
let Biden keep talking, he is like watching a train wreck in slow motion.
I'm still waiting for someone taking this attack line on Romney and Bain Capital's private equity record to NAME A SINGLE COMPANY that they took over that outsources jobs offshore, other than perhaps the occasional customer support call center low pay positions. The Washington Post reporter that wrote this spurious article that the liberal in the bag for Obama media has jumped on either can't or won't do it, even after the Romney campaign people met with them today to in the Washinton State offices to demand a retraction. All they got was a rebuke that amounted to "we trust our unnamed resources'.
SILLY SEASON, FOLKS! Remember what your grandparents told you : "Don't trust everthing you read in the papers!"
You saw the Youtube add Mitt put out on ARMCO - now look up ARMCO on the internet. Tell me if it is running in the United States today.
Why do you think Mitt pulled it so fast?
ARMCO was pulled off of Youtube by Mitt because ARMCO is now based in South Africa. So, were these jobs outsourced or overseased? We will have to ask Mitt.
