101 of Mitt Romney's loudest convention speech lip smacks

by Jed Lewison

Dear Mitt: Please, please, please. Please, stop smacking your lips so much.

Seriously, though, congratulations to Mr. Romney for becoming the 2012 Republican presidential nominee. And for winning the first annual Daily Kos lip smacking world championship at the very same time. What an honor.

p.s.: Every single one of the 101 lip smacks in this video is unique.

1. That was hilarious and slightly disgusting!

2. Lip Smacking is a reliable sign of DECEPTION

Psychologists say...

Body language of A liar

In certain situations, you can tell a lie not by what you hear, but what you see. A Person’s physical movements will give him/her away every time. Just like the human eye, every movement has a reason backed up behind it. If you can read body language, you will gain the upper hand in any confrontation. The liar will not know he is giving himself away by making certain body movements, because they are all done subconsciously. The subconscious mind is a powerful part of your brain that the average person under estimates. A lot of the movements you make are orchestrated by the subconscious mind...

...Licking your lips after saying something is a strong sign of deception. When people get nervous, their saliva glands cease to produce saliva, and our mouths become dry. There are two reasons why a person could lick their lips after saying something. They are either nervous, or are uncomfortable with what they just said...

9. That's fascinating. My three year old has begun smacking her lips while telling stories...

...At night, she's started to tell us bedtime stories. It's super cute, and while the plots are predictable the characters change constantly.

Anyhow, she smacks her lips before each new development is imagined: &quot Smack) Once upon a time, (smack) there was... (smack) a unicorn named ... (smack) Twinkie. And she lived... (smack) ... in a ... (smack) ...lollipop forest!"

Mrs. Robb and I had remarked to each other upon it, as it's a "gesture" that shows up any time she's making up stuff out of whole cloth, e.g. any creativity moment -- stories about her toys, a trip to space she once had, etc.

3. And Ryan grunted like a rutting moose during his lie fest...

Tics like that must have some psychological significance.

8. Can you imagine being subjected to four years of ongoing lip smacks?

And I thought the Chimp's primitive grunts were bad. Romney had better correct this in a hurry or at the debate people will pay more attention to the smacking than to what he says, LOL.

10. Well, that was just creepy.

Or perhaps I should say, more creepy than his normal creepiness.

or he was on some kind of drug that makes your mouth go thristy feeling.
I noticed Ann didn't look very happy when he was coming on stage or during the 'speech' (ah - hem), she looked worried or pissed off or something, but not supportive and happy
