Asshole Romney son. Romney's son jokes about Obama's birth certificate, grades

One of Mitt Romney's sons joked about President Obama releasing his birth certificate while campaigning for his father in New Hampshire on Friday morning.

When asked whether his father would release his tax returns, Matt Romney tried to make light of the question.

"He has not said that he will not do it, he has also not said that he will. I think it's a matter of time until that issue comes up because I think everybody has to get a chance to do that. And so I don't know the answer to that, I'm not sure if he knows the answer to that," Matt Romney said.

"But he'll do everything that he needs to. He's certainly not afraid of anything, not hiding anything — you know, I heard someone suggest the other day that as soon as President Obama releases his grades and birth certificate and sort of a long list of things, then maybe he'd do it."

Oh, that's right. Romneys haven't seen the need to serve their country... for five generations.

Which means, this year, you're aligning yourself with science denying, flat-Earth creationists, Misanthropic, humanity-disdaining Billionaires, polluting greedheads, and folks who want to put women in prison for using birth control.

I mean, you could cover yourself in poop and run naked through times square, but I'm not sure that's actually worse, at this point.

Because that is exactly what he did, and his father knows that is what he did, and Romney insists people who make over the top statements apologize, immediately....

Ann Romney looked shocked when the press informed her that her youngest son, Craig Romney, had stuck a bug down the pants of her other son Josh Romney when they were saying goodbye in Florida today. Josh Romney had taken to Twitter to post the photo of the critter.

“No! My Josh? My Craig? I’ve got to see that,” she said.

“No, it’s great. They still haven’t grown up. Which is really terrific. I’m still proud of them,” she said.

....................

Wasn't this the woman who also said last week it was time for the grownups to be in charge?

Stoopid people - all of them.
