WISDOM

If you support our national security issues, you may love and appreciate the United States of America, our Constitution with its’ freedoms, and our American flag.

If you support and practice our fiscal issues, you may value worldly possessions.

If you support and value our social issues, you may love Judeo-Christian values.

If you support and practice all these values, that is all good; an insignia of “Wisdom” . - Oscar Y. Harward

Mitt Romney may be a bit confused over words

While watching the Florida GOP Presidential debate on January 23, 2012, Mitt Romney seemed to have been in disarray as to Newt Gingrich’s official profession while working as a “consultant” with Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.  Mitt Romney erroneously claims that Newt Gingrich was “lobbying” or “peddling” while on the payroll for eight years.  Newt Gingrich’s own claim of “consulting” is backed up by a written contract as well as confirmed by Congressional leaders who were working closely with Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. 

Newt Gingrich was attempting to correct the wrongs as Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae were approving unqualified home loan applicants.  Barack Obama, Chris Dodd, and Barney Frank continued to approve home loans to applicants whom, otherwise, were not financially qualified.  Why would Mitt Romney now decide he could falsely blame Newt Gingrich for his efforts to clean up a mess? 

To assist in clearing the air for Mitt Romney, I checked with “Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary” for each description: 

Consulting: providing professional or expert advice. 

Lobbying: to promote (as a project) or secure the passage of (as legislation) by influencing public officials. 

Peddling: to travel about with wares for sale; broadly. 

From “Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary”, it appears Mitt Romney may have been a bit confused over words.  It is difficult to understand why Mitt Romney could or would have become so misguided.
