If you’ve never tried hating Mitt, I recommend it wholeheartedly. He’s got that snotty Romney smirk and can’t tell the truth to save his soul. Today he announced to the Des Moines Register that he “would not pursue any abortion-related legislation if elected president,” a statement his campaign retracted even before he had a chance to close his mouth. Almost immediately, Romney spokeswoman Andrea Saul submitted a correction: “Governor Romney would of course support legislation aimed at providing greater protections for life. Mitt Romney is proudly pro-life, and he will be a pro-life president.”
After Obama’s staff stopped laughing they issued a statement clarifying Romney’s real stand on this issue in case citizens are having a hard time keeping track of the endless baloney (that’s a nicer word for bullshit). According to Obama’s spokeswoman Lis Smith, Romney has stated emphatically that he’d “be delighted to sign a bill banning all abortions,” wants to shut down federal funding for Planned Parenthood and calls Roe v. Wade “one of the darkest moments in Supreme Court history.” Romney has even pledged to appoint Supreme Court justices to overturn it.
Bottom line? Women can’t trust him. Men can’t trust him. Children can’t trust him. Dogs, cats, gerbils and goldfish can’t trust him. Even his own campaign staff can’t trust him.
Thank you for putting up with me. I have to make lunch now and watch a couple of reruns with Sam. Stop by later if you have time.
