Canseco Must Reject Romney's 47% Comment
Call on Rep. Francisco Canseco to publicly reject Mitt Romney's offensive claim that 47% of the American public are "victims" dependent on the government.
Why is this important?
Mitt Romney recently stated that 47% of the American public are "victims" dependent on the government. I am a retired person who draws a meager Social Security retirement benefit check each month, which I am sure I earned through many long years of hard work. This makes me part of Romney's 47%, yet I in no way feel like a victim or one who expects something for nothing. I know Romney's comment is not based on facts or reality. As my representative in Congress I demand that Rep. Francisco Canseco publicly reject Mitt Romney's offensive claim.
