romney claims, our standing, or is it better these days as the president suggests? we re going to debate it fair and balanced coming up. plus, apple set to make a major announcement. what will be their latest must-have gadget? we ll show it to you next.
there s an ancient chinese proverb that says he who strikes first blow has lost the argument. that may help explain mitt romney s latest attack on the president for not rushing to brand china as a currency manipulator. something romney claims is long overdue. they came out and said we re not going to do that actually. we re going to wait until after the election. on day one i will label china a currency manipulator. we re going to get serious about making sure people don t cheat when it comes to trade. fascinating. now compare that with what romney tells his donors when he thinks nobody is listening. when i was back in my private equity days, we went to china to buy a factory there. employed about 20,000 people. as we were walking to this facility, seeing them work, the number of hours they worked per day, the pittance they earned, living in dormitories with little bathrooms. translation, our crackdown on china, just not on the factories i buy in china which force their
college, find a good job and enjoy the freedom that they risked everything to protect. later today, the man who wants to become president, governor mitt romney will join senator john mccain, a former p.o.w. and war hero to the vietnam war. the two will present a memorial day tribute at the veterans museum and memorial day center in san diego. you got to picture this. in the coming weeks of the presidential campaign, president obama and governor romney will be competing for the military vote. the president continues to work on bringing the war in afghanistan to an end. touting his efforts as well, to bring us the u.s. combat troops home from iraq and then accrediting the u.s. military for killing usama bin laden. meantime, governor romney claims president obama s economic policies are making it hard for veterans returning home to find good jobs. so even on this good veterans day, good memorial day, i should say, there s still room for politics. back to you. always. always. never
see you. is this the earliest and most aggressive at least in modern american political history an incumbent president has gone on the attack against his political opponent? it is. the reason why the race is so close. now the race is on to define mitt romney by the president s team because they wanted to disqualify him and his credentials early. i talked to some of president clinton s advisors and they were surprised that president obama has engaged so early. they are saying he is not staying above the fray like clinton did. gregg: look, governor romney claims that this shows the president is getting kind of desperate. i wonder if there is something to, too. is this a president who sees himself that sees himself on the ropes. he is going slug away, some
and less vulture capitalism. you really believe this country want to elect a wall street financer of the president of the united states. you think that s the experience we need. someone to taken a look after he as he did, his friends on wall street and bail them out at the expense of main street america? the fact is, he is not prepared to release any documents from bain it prove anything. so we have no idea what his net job creation was. governor romney claims to have created a hundred thousand jobs at bain and people want to know, is there proof of that claim? when people can point to where you made a quick profit, and kick people out of their jobs, that is an issue that s got to be addressed. this is romney s biggest problem. the backbone of his campaign is already been destroyed. by his own party.
