ITA. This Mother Jones thing is like a fake open-mic “gaffe” where a candidate gets to rally the base by actually telling the truth for a change.
needs a better title- but otherwise good stuff
especially the remarks about “little susie”
That is pretty funny. I didn’t realize you were such a great writer.
LOL....this is the way to handle the banal, egotistical press: Laugh at them.
How about: “Shockingly offensive gaffe could end Romney Campaign”
How do I know?
Facts are immutable and the candidate has a right to observe them publicly or to dismiss them at his own discretion... PERIOD
Yes, I agree
Romney may very well lose... granted, the landscape isn’t looking great right now. But even if he doesn’t win, that painful, harsh truth needed to be told. And the figure is now closer at last count to 49, vice 47.
ROTFLMAO!
Only when I can spell properly. Firefox helps with those underline red squiggly things.
Offensive only to those in that 47%.
Not to those of us supporting them.
Hey, don’t knock intuitive science! It works.
Per one of our most famous scientists: “Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind.”
and “I want to know God’s thoughts; the rest are details.”
and “ A problem is not solved at the level of consciousness at which it was created.”
and the last and best “Great spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds.”
I like Neils Bohr’s response to Einstein, “Einstein, stop telling God what to think!”
I happened to catch a bit of NPR coverage of the “Mother Jones” so-called “gaffe” in which they made this exact point, i.e. that it was not a gaffe at all but a moment of candor where Romney said exactly what he really felt.
I hope so. If we could get the Left Wing Media to help spread the word that 47% of American’s don’t pay taxes at all but depend on the government for their every need, I think that would sew up the election for him in short order.
Yes, our “press” are nothing more than Obama2012 propagandists at this point
bump to that
Smarty, It makes the game a lot more fun when you bring in humor!
This excellent article reminds me to the Sat. Night Live skit about a college class “Sarcasm 101!”
As long as he has been in government he should know better than this.
Some are saying the truth is offensive; then maybe they can’t handle the truth?
