Wow. When I actually heard the full Romney firing statement, it was the most innocuous thing ever.
I wasn’t sold on Romney, but with the other Republicans complaining he’s a capitalist, I’m getting closer.
Mitt Romney’s “I like to run over poor people in my limousine” statement is actually rather innocuous when heard in context.
“This independent film is really boring.”
“No, it’s a defensive struggle.”
There is such a thing as an entertaining defensive struggle. See, for instance, the 2009 Iowa-Michigan State game which was a great game from start to finish.
Then there are games that shouldn’t be played.
More innocuous things Romney said (about dying, out of context):
“I love it when old ladies’ teeth fall out and they have Medicare and Social Security… At least they die fully covered.”
“If we don’t repeal Obamacare and you’re selected to die by a death panel… It makes people more responsible.”
“I love rescuing bankrupt cities and states that are dying… They’ll end up like Greece.”
“I know the private sector. I love how it creates jobs and fires bad people… People die every day!”
You know what? I’d rather have a president who claims to like seeing people go unemployed than a president who has been working round the clock since 2009 to ensure it. I will vote for anyone, anyone in the country rather than have another four years of Obama.
What part of “…People die every day!” do you disagree with or feel is untrue. All you have pointed out is that Mitt uses the expression “I love to…” quite a bit. I suspect the whole thing was an Operation Mincemeat to be followed up with something like “Obama loves to hire people with your money to harrass you!”
If Romney and Paul are the Pres/Veep choices, will it be ROM PAUL !!!!11!!11!!!11 ?
I fear IMAO has been subverted. There is a Ron Paul money bomb ad in the upper right corner.
The problem with Romney and the other RINOs are that they are innocuous. Maybe they can run on the innocuous party.
I prefer a good defensive game. Football becomes like basketball when the teams alternately run up and down the field with the win going to the last team to possess the ball. I hates bad defense.
“Operation Mincemeat” – Shhhhhh! You don’t want to end up like Grease!
One afternoon Mitt Romney was riding in his limousine when he saw two men along the roadside eating grass. Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate.
He asked one man, ‘Why are you eating grass?’
‘We don’t have any money for food,’ the poor man replied. ‘We have to eat grass.’
‘Well, then, you can come with me to my house and I’ll feed you,’ Mitt said.
‘But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over there,
‘Bring them along,’ Mitt replied.
Turning to the other poor man he stated, ‘You come with us, also.’
The second man, in a pitiful voice, then said, ‘But sir, I also have a wife and SIX children with me!’
‘Bring them all, as well,’ Mitt answered.
They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large as the limousine was.
Once underway, one of the poor fellows turned to Mitt and said, ‘Sir, you are too kind.’
‘Thank you for taking all of us with you.’
Mitt replied, ‘Glad to do it. You’ll really love my place. The grass is almost a foot high
I approved this joke……..Newt Gingrich
And we laughed at it…Huntsman, Santorum, Perry,and Paul.
@zzyzx, my grass has yellow flowers in it for color to make it more appetizing.
If it weren’t for Greece, we wouldn’t have french fries!
Will Sasquatch die if she can’t throw elaborate parties at taxpayer expense?
Go Tebow!!
Oh yeah, almost forgot,
Ron Paul!!!11!!1
#8 – zzyzx,
Thank you for the chuckle! 😉
PS: 24 hours later, I’ve told that joke 4 times.
