ATLANTA - Mitt Romney says he's a better tea party candidate than his rivals for the Republican presidential nomination.

The former Massachusetts governor lashed out at Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum on Wednesday, the day after losing contests in Missouri, Minnesota and Colorado.

Romney says his opponents are members of a Republican Party that had lost its way. He says spending on lawmakers' pet projects doubled under Gingrich, a former House speaker. He says Santorum, a former senator, was a major proponent of that type of spending.

Romney says the tea party movement was created to fight Washington insiders who spend too much and that Santorum and Gingrich "are the very Republicans who acted like Democrats."

I think that is “planet Kolob”, not “Star Kolob”...

Except Bishop Mitt doesn’t get Kolob. The Bishop gets his own new planet and can name it whatever he wants. So he could call it Mitt World or Planet Romney or whatever his heart desires...

And he gets to populate it with his millions of spirit children along with his goddess wife...

I like the ring of "Planet Kolob" much better.....but was corrected by an LDSer that it's a Star. Whatever. I asked them if they could help my find the planet or star using a high-powered telescope during an astronomy class. I never heard back........

The only Tea Party Mitt Romney is suited for includes a white rabbit sitting at the table.

So which one is he, anyway, Tweedle Dee or Tweedle Dum? ...or Tweedle Dumber?

Romney stutters (because he’s trying to keep his lies straight) and smacks his lips like a faggot.

I can’t stand to listen to him.

It’s as annoying as Obamas whistling Ss and long, drawn out annnnnnnds.

They are both statists and vicious character assassins of the first order.

I wouldn’t pee on either of them if they were on fire.

The Big Lie

The Big Lie is a technique that Adolf Hitler used with great success. The idea is that you just keep repeating the same lie over and over, in spite of all arguments or evidence to the contrary, until people believe it. Massive repetition is essential. (Think: “Why do they keep running the same stupid commercials on TV, over and over and over again, ad nauseum?”)
