About three weeks ago, Glenn asked TheBlaze to find the stories about Mitt Romney that the media isn't telling and Americans should know. He was fed up with the pictures being painted about Romney through the mainstream media and campaign ads. In 2008 all conservatives really wanted was the media to research Barack Obama like they do everyone on the right. Is it too much to ask for the American people to know a little background information on the man they may elect to be their President.
The history being shown about Mitt Romney on the news has been so far from the truth and so insanely trivial that Glenn started to believe, "this guy is squeaky clean."
"I asked my staff to go find the stuff on Romney, the good stuff," Glenn explained. "Because if there is no bad stuff, I'll bet you there's good stuff out there that nobody's telling the story on."
As it was pointed out by a few at the RNC and became evident after Glenn's staff began telling him the stories they were finding, Romney isn't the kind of guy that likes to talk about the things he has done to help others. On Friday, Glenn is going to spend a full hour sharing the incredible stories his staff found. He will also be joined by some of the people whose lives were changed (for the better) by Mitt Romney, most of whom had never even met him.
This morning on radio Glenn gave a preview of what you can expect to see on Friday's program. He shared a story of a V.A. hospital in Boston that Mitt Romney stopped at while on the campaign trail running against Ted Kennedy. Ted Kennedy had made a thirty minute top at the same location a couple of weeks prior.
After touring the V.A. hospital, Mitt asked to look at their books. After he spent forty minutes going through their books, he told them, "You run a very good place, very tight. Very good." Romney asked to go on another tour of the hospital, and after spending an hour and forty minutes there, the last question he asked was, "So what... what do you ‑‑ what are you lacking? What do you need help with?"
The response? "Milk."
Since the press was around, snapping photos and asking questions, Glenn explained that Romney did a really awkward joke where he said, "maybe we should teach everyone here how to milk a cow."
Of course, that's all the press cared to hear and ran with a story that claims "Mitt Romney says veterans should have to milks cows."
"This is where it gets good," Glenn started. "Romney calls him up the next morning."
Romney first apologizes to the man who runs the hospital for any problems the attention from the press jumping on his words brought to the hospital. He next offers to help with the milks situation.
"Friday comes, and the milkman comes," Glenn continues. "This is what the vets needed - they needed 7,000 pints of milk a week. Milkman shows up, 7,000 pints. The head of the V.A. hospital asks, "Where did all this come from?" He [the milkman] said "an anonymous donor." Now, the guy didn't put it together."
Glenn explains that when the next week rolled around, the milkman shows up again, and continued to show up every week for two years. After two years of delivering 7,000 pints of milk a week to the hospital, as the milkman is retiring, the man finally gets him to reveal the anonymous donor.
It's Mitt Romney.
"Mitt Romney was writing a personal check and didn't want anybody to know for two years and provided the vets with all of their milk in Boston," Glenn explained to listeners this morning.
When Romney became governor, he sent a bill through to help the V.A. hospital - it was down to the dollar. This man told Glenn, "if you want a mechanic on the economy? It's this guy. He [Mitt Romney] went and he looked at the books first. He wanted to see what we were doing and how effective we were. He said then, beyond that, the milk. He did that and he didn't want anything ‑‑ he didn't want anyone to know."
No one is telling America these stories - but Friday, Glenn will.
"The stories you'll hear on Friday are incredible. Our people found them. And we didn't send investigators. Nobody's going through anybody's garbage. We just started to look. And the stories we found, I'm telling you, I apologize to Mitt Romney and his family for being so blind and not seeing who he was. That does not mean I'm going to agree with all of his policies, but I am blind. I have been saying we need to find George Washington, a man of true character and honor and decency. When you watch the show on Friday, you will ‑‑ I'm convinced you will feel exactly the same way I do."
This Friday on TheBlaze TV, Glenn will be joined by this man and many other to tell the stories about Mitt Romney the media won't tell you - the stories you've been longing to hear about a politician in this country. Don't miss it!
