My Inheritance
I should have known better. Mitt Romney drives me nuts. I should know not to listen to him any more, but my inquisitive nature gets the better of me and I work very hard to keep my blood pressure under control.
The nerve of him to say that he did not inherit much from his father - ONLY about a million dollars. He certainly did not inherit his mother's advocacy of the truth. The videotape of her, when she stated that the year they were on relief was very difficult, had to stir up emotions in the viewer. But, apparently not in her son.
It's obvious to me that Mitt Romney did not inherit his father's intelligence, compassion, people skills, and empathy.
I inherited a great deal from my parents: perfect pitch and other musical talents, intellectual curiosity, sense of humor, compassion for the less fortunate, determination to see a job through to its completion, analytical ability; and a tendency to high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I have more or less tamed the latter two with rigorous attention to diet and exercise.

You forgot to mention your arrogance & judgmental nature. You know your allowed to disagree with the man's policy positions without having to insult every fiber of his being right down to his own Mother & Father!
For the sake if your blood pressure you may want to read a little more (and always note the source) this evil uncaring man who lacks compassion & empathy just might be a little more generous then you think.
Just maybe Mitt Romney is exactly the opposite of YOUR warped perception of him.
How much of YOUR income did you DONATE to charity or to help the less fortunate last year!?!? The Romneys GAVE away 4 Million dollars 29% of their gross income last year... Let me guess that's not enough for you.. The evil Romney should have donated 100% of his income!?
Do you know how much working class millionaire Joe Biden has donated to the less fortunate...A paultry $5,500 a mere 1.4% of his $400,000/year salary.. And of course Mr Share the wealth himself Barack Obama has recently discovered charity but in every single year BEFORE he was elected President.. The Obama family donated LESS then 1 (ONE) % of their income to charity.!! He wants to share the wealth, just not His wealth. And btw the romneys 20 year average giving per year is 13.5%
