If we re-elect Barack Obama, Iran will get a nuclear weapon. If we elect Mitt Romney, Iran will not.---------GOP Contender Mitt Romney.
The ‘Great Society’ has not worked and it’s put us into the modern welfare state. If you look at China, they don’t have food stamps. If you look at China, they’re in a very different situation. They save for their own retirement security…They don’t have the modern welfare state and China’s growing. And so what I would do is look at the programs that LBJ gave us with the Great Society and they’d be gone.-------GOP Contender Michele Bachmann
Regarding the first quote, I'm please to see that Mitt is not resorting to fear mongering.
Regarding the second quote, I...well...there's nothing else I could add to it really, right?

All this from a woman who criticizes Welfare, yet accepted $70,000/a year in Welfare Checks per Foster Child...that's 20something kids at 70K per, from the Minnesota State Dept. of Human Services. Wants to end Subsidies for Farmers, but accepted over $251,973.00 in Farm Subsidies for her Farm between 1995 and 2006.
Wants to end Medicare and Medicaid...but accepted $137,000 in Medicaid reimbursements for her husband Marcus' Gay Therapy Clinic. She also accepted a $417,000 federally subsidized loan from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to help purchase a luxury house, a 5,200-square-foot home on a golf course. This while she was trying to dismantle the two big Mortgage Giants.
I'm no fan of Bachmann, but "70K per" kid seems too high by almost an order of magnitude. You got a reliable source for that?
