The True Face of the Democratic Party


It is not unusual for Democrats to say something reasonable and then do what is totally
unreasonable. We’ve come to expect that; it’s the “nature of the beast.” But when they feel
politically threatened, as they now feel threatened by Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan, it is then we
get to see the true face of the Democratic Party.
In recent days, an Obama SuperPAC, funded and managed by people close to Barack Obama,
has produced a TV ad in which Mitt Romney is accused of being responsible for the death of a
steelworker’s wife. The truth is, the steelworker’s employer, which went into bankruptcy, was
shut down by Bain Capital two years after Romney left the company. When the steelworker, Joe
Soptic, lost his job his wife continued to have company health insurance for at least another two
years. She was not diagnosed with cancer until five years after her husband lost his job.
Then, on August 14, in a speech before a largely black audience in Danville, Virginia, Vice
President Joe Biden suggested that Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan would like to “put y’all back in

in slavery and in political and economic bondage since the earliest days of our republic.
