He insulted the British, Palestinians, and now Mitt Romney has “said ’47 percent’ of Americans are ‘dependent upon government.’ Romney said these voters are with Obama and believe they are victims. He also said his job was not to worry about them and to instead focus on Independent voters who could swing the election. ‘There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what,’ Romney is shown saying. ‘All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to healthcare, to food, to housing, to you name it.'” Romney’s gaffe is not only ignorant but by getting caught he ignores the four percent, or more, that may take serious offence at it and vote for Obama in November.
