Star of Romney's I-Did-It-All-Myself Ad Took Over $1 Million In Gov't Loans

LC points us to this gem.

So R-Money is desperate enough now to predicate whole ad campaigns on an obvious and intentional misinterpretation of of one sentence in one speech by Obama.

Wow...stop for a second and reflect on the utter contempt for democracy and the nation that that reveals... Utterly nauseating.

Anyhoo, turns out that Jack Gilchrist, the fellow in Romney's I-Did-It-All-Myself ad...took over a million bucks in government assistance for his business.

You're a regular Jack Galt, my friend.

This is, of course, in addition to the stuff Obama was talking about--the roads and bridges and other infrastructure and public education system and legal system, fire and police departments, etc. that we all collectively pitch in to build and maintain.

Again: no one--NO ONE--thinks that individual talent and initiative is not necessary for success in most (non-Paris-Hilton-esque) cases.

But it is not sufficient.

That was Obama's point.

And he was right.
