Was it someone forced by government tyranny to pay for insurance?

Hunting RINOs in confined spaces isn’t very sporting.

“Gov. Romney did not retaliate," said Mr. Fehrnstrom.

A crying shame. A retaliatory knock-out punch would have made him a lot more endearing.

Mr. Romney, 62, and his wife, Ann, were sitting in Row 15 of the economy section of the Embrarer 190 airplane, waiting for the plane to take off when the incident happened.

What's he doing in Economy Class? LOL.

The man sitting in front of Mr. Romney’s wife dropped his seat back and when Mr. Romney asked him to move it upright for takeoff, the man became “physically violent.” Another report said that the man tried to strike Mr. Romney.

I have seen the exact same thing happen on a flight I was on.

More likely a Tea Party member warning him not to run in 2012.

I wish that the airplane seats did not lay back. Some people are just stupid about it. These idiots who think an airplane is a bed and get mad when anyone dares to disturb them deserve to be throw off. I once rode all the way from Denver to Sacramento with a person laying on my legs. When ever I moved my legs, she screamed at me.

I don't like Mitt, but that's not cool.

There are so many better targets.

Probably pissed at the state of taxachusetts dept of revenue and how slick Willard unleashed it on any poor soul who refused to buy medical insurance.

This SOB has got another thing comng if he thinks he’s getting the nomination.

He best quit and enjoy his money before things get really ugly

A little jet like that doesn’t have a first class cabin.

I was on an Embraer 190 with Jet Blue and there was no first class or economy. I liked it a lot more than the skinny tube Embraer 145’s. Those are horrible.

I had a strange dream a few nights ago where Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin were on MST3K making fun of the "Inconvenient Truth" movie.

Mitt said he'd have to consult with his lawyers first.

When Clarence Thomas sits in coach, I believe him. When Mitt, who can buy his own plane, does it, it reeks of a political statement.

Nancy boys don't punch people.
They might get hurt more.

The only thing Mitt has ever shown himself capable of attacking has been Sarah Palin, and even that not to her face.
