Florida Romney Volunteer Calling Up Seniors to Inform Them Obama is a Socialist Muslim

By Kyle Munzenrieder Fri., Sep. 28 2012 at 2:54 PM

A Florida Republican volunteer has been caught on tape calling up senior citizen voters on behalf of Mitt Romney and telling them that President Barack Obama is a secret muslim who wants to take away their Medicare. The woman was making the call on behalf of the Clay County GOP, but the local party says that the volunteer went completely off script.

According to StAugustine.com, the call was picked up on an answering machine. Somehow the woman forgot to properly hang up after getting an answering machine, and her next call was recorded.

"I don't know if you've done any research on Obama or not, but he is a Muslim," the woman says. "If he had his way, we'd be a socialistic country."

"Ya'll sound like ya'll are seniors citizens, right? You really don't want Obama because he will get rid of your Medicare ... say goodbye to it."

Because if there's one thing socialists do its getting rid of "socialistic" programs like Medicare.

The woman also informed the voters to "pay attention to Fox News."

Which is odd, because we're pretty sure not even Fox News is claiming that Obama is a Muslim who wants to completely eliminate Medicare.

Leslie Dougher, the head of the Clay GOP, says the volunteer wasn't following proper protocol.

"It was off-script completely. We have everything scripted," Dougher told StAugustine.com. "Those are clearly not the views of the Republican Party of Clay County or the Mitt Romney campaign."

Dougher says that the woman was talked to about the call, but she wasn't sure or not whether the volunteer was still making calls on behalf of the Romney campaign.

Yes, make sure that you believe whatever Fox News has to say, because we all know that they've never ever twisted facts. It's sad how few people have remorse about lieing to the public in order to further their own views.

The Socialist Left have joined forces with Radical Islam to undermine America and destroy the US from within..And there are people who support this and those who don't...

Well how about this? mitt romney is starting to stink, and guess what? You're allowed to take it out with the other Garbage. Garbage in, garbage out. If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, you're going to get selfish, ignorant leaders. Term limits ain't going to do any good; you're just going to end up with a brand new bunch of selfish, ignorant Americans. So, maybe, maybe, maybe, it's not the politicians who suck. Maybe something else sucks around here... like, the public. Yeah, the public sucks. There's a nice campaign slogan for somebody: ' "The public sucks. Elect me." Put the blame where it belongs: on the people.”

Because I know enough to know that the economy what you have today in the economy is the result of decisions made about three, four, or five years ago. Because that's how long it takes for them to get into this massive economy. So in my opinion, the Republicans are the ones responsible. And when Romney says he's going to create, well how many million jobs? that's total hogwash, and I'll tell you why. The only thing a government official can -- can create is a government job. So if he's going to create 12 million new jobs, they're going to be paid for by taxes. Because jobs are created.Jobs are created in the private sector. Not by the president or the government unless they're government jobs.
