iOWA AND THE DMR.

Sounds like double talk to me Iowa? Because the republicans have refused to cooperate it's Obama's fault.
The people of Iowa want Jobs the paper says, but Iowa has like 5.6% unemployment rate. Then they go on and talk about what Mitt did in Mass like he was this guy who got everyone on the same page! Really guys? 850 vetoes and 750 over rides of his vetoes. A 33% approval rating. Raise taxes (he calls them fees) to the tune of 800 million a year.
And anyone who knows about the Olympics understands he took over after most of the work was done, and after he got there even though he signed the pledge to not be involved with those who you have dealing with, did exactly that. He provided contract after contract to companies he either had a direct connection to or was on the boards of.
He disrespected people at the Olympics (workers).
Same thing in Mass, as you were consider a piece to do his work, and he was the important and only part that counted.
Where did he create jobs, which was another point they made, besides in Mitts head? Taking credit for what others did because you may have an investment is pure BS. Not to mention 50% of those jobs were out of the country, and most were at the bottom, 7.88 hr starting wages.

So why did the DMR endorse? Give me a clue since everything they said from the paper was prov-en to be wrong.

I've been wondering if ownership of The Des Moines Register has somehow been transferred to Bain Capital. They've been firing a lot of people there lately. Seems like a Bain trademark.
 
They are own by Garnette I believe. They have had a lot of change this last year, and yes they have change the direction, having loss money this last year.
But what I want them to explain is what information did they use to come up with the opinions they used. I heard the head of the paper's opinion board more or less give a run down of Romney and Fox news talking points.

What I would like to know is who controlled the meeting and what was the vote, or was it as usual, if it ends up a 3-2 vote then everyone will have to agree and stand together even when you don't agree
 
Gee whizz guys, I think someone is reading my post. yesterday at 11:14 am I wrote my ideas that I didn't understand why the DMR would pick Romney. Not only because Iowa has one of the lowest unemployment rates, and the fact that most of what Mitt is taking credit for in Mass didn't happen the way they said, and the Olympics if anyone check it out was little to do with Romney making a go of it as it was about everything was in place before he got there. Now all these facts can be checked out by the editorial board and should have been if that is what they used.

But not being from Iowa I did not know why they picked Obama last time, until tonight. Lawrence on MSNBC show what the DMR used to pick Obama.
#1 It was Health care that was needed
#2 The next president might make several Supreme Court nominations. Obama promises to appoint justices with an expansive view of constitutional rights and equal justice
#3 Would work to strengthen the struggling middle class
#4 Pumping research dollars into developing clean alternatives to fossil fuels and investing in energy efficiency will maintain America's technological edge and create good-paying green-collar jobs.
#5 Obama also is committed to withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq as quickly and as safely as possible.
#6 They feel that Obama could bridge the gap and bring our country together

Well the last one he hasn't done to date, but not from a lack of wanting too, but more of an opponent that has said hell no we won't go!

But when putting out their endorsement this year, not one of the five items they based their last endorsement of Obama was talked about! Esp since Romney has said he wants to get rid of health care, he would appoint a supreme court that would overturn Roe V wade, he doesn't believe that alternative energy is something that our govt should be putting money into, and Romney has in the past wanted to stay in wars and wants to build a bigger defence budget.

Oh yeah there was something else to, something about being against trickle down from the top tax cuts!

Yes DMR you have made Iowa( well at least the Iowa DRM) the laughing stock of the USA.
 
The DMR has been shown the door by the Iowa voter, good for them. Anyone who is so brash to go against everything they were for just four years before should be shown the door.
I would cancle the paper if I had it.
