I just saw on TV crawl...Romney will start getting intelligence briefings next week!

[Auntie Bush]

Bummer! But, I still think he'll put his foot in his mouth and embarrass himself and his party.

[Curtland1015]

1. Eh, it was going to happen eventually.

Still, I agree... he'll manage to make himself look worse.

[valerief]

2. SHIT. Hmm, but maybe they'll be bogus briefings. Hehehehehehehe. One can only hope. nt

[MoonRiver]

3. And after the briefings he'll have no excuse.

[IggleDoer]

4. Will the briefings be given verbally, in writing ...

...or in a USB thumb drive stuck up his ass?

[pinboy3niner]

8. The briefings will be given...

...remedially.

[Auntie Bush]

5. The latter I hope!

[Flashmann]

6. Nice

How long until he all over TV blathering something sensitive?.....

[TeamPooka]

20. 3, 2, 1........

[PCIntern]

21. After the MI-5 fiasco...

"Yes, they showed me those really interesting tunnels which go form the White House and open at that vent on K Street next to the trash can compactor...you know which one -wink-

[RagAss]

7. Like teaching a fucking polar bear how to play the banjo !

[Auntie Bush]

11. Plase don't pick on or compare him to Polar Bears. I heart Polar Bears and they have a

special place in my heart! How about a Grizzly bear?

[RagAss]

25. I love them too....but they really stink on the banjo.

[Politicalboi]

30. You're mistaken

&feature=related

[reflection]

28. You know what the difference is between an onion and a banjo?

No one cries if you cut up a fucking banjo.

[C_U_L8R]

9. Clearly he's had no intelligence so far

I don't think any briefings are going to help. Face it GOP, you've nominated another moron.

[MineralMan]

10. There's a book about that:

[NV Whino]

12. Don't think it will up his IQ, though.

[CTyankee]

13. For some reason, this gives me a bad feeling...what he could do with

information...I worry that he could do something really awful...

I'm trying not to be too alarmist but I don't get a good feeling...

[EC]

14. Maybe he'll end up giving out

government secrets and he'll be thrown into prison? Didn't he do something like that in England when he said he met with MI6? He'll end up giving out classified info during debates or something.

[lpbk2713]

15. Mittens wouldn't allow it if the positions were reversed.

I know it's wild to think Mittens could be Prez even hypothetically.

[former9thward]

17. The government has been doing this for both parties since the 1950s.

It doesn't matter who the president is.

[lpbk2713]

18. *Mittens wouldn't allow it*

The practice is "traditional", not the law of the land. I'm saying
Romney would put an end to the practice if he were President.

[former9thward]

19. I think your partisanship is overriding your rationality.

But whatever...

[Auntie Bush]

24. He isn't traditional...HE WON'T RELEASE HIS TAXES!

He could very well decide not to give the next presidential candidate (If he were president) the intelligence report if he thought it would give him an advantage.

[jsr]

16. Did he show his tax returns to get the top secret clearance?

[GEOpix]

33. I have a Top Secret security clearance

AND I have to fill out a financial disclosure document every year!

[myrna minx]

22. I find this to be frightening. I can't imagine what sensitive info he'll divulge out of stupidity

or political gain. He's not trustworthy.

[L0oniX]

23. I doubt it will make him more intelligent.

[Politicalboi]

26. He shouldn't be allowed to see shit till

He releases ALL of the taxes he is supposed to release by law. He might not be eligible if he broke any laws. We should DEMAND that.

[pinto]

27. It's routine, no more nor less. He's still a phoney shill though. Briefings won't change that.

(ed for spell)

[backscatter712]

29. I'll bet the delay was from rewriting the briefs down to kindergarten level.

That and they had to scrub certain things so Mittwit doesn't blab them.

[southernyankeebelle]

31. Well you got to have some intelligence before you start getting any more intelligence report. Don't

worry Mittens will manage to put that silver foot in his mouth.

[SheilaT]

32. As compared to the stupidity briefings

he's been getting so far?

[progressivebydesign]

34. FUck. That means that ROVE and Bremer and Rumsfeld, will get the intel.

yOu don't damn well that they will. This is a STUPID tradition!!!
