Re: Ann Romney's plane

When I was riding in the car today, the DJ on the local rock station said "Come back after the break and we'll do the TOP 5 REASONS THAT AIRPLANE WINDOWS DON'T ROLL DOWN! Maybe you'll all learn something! Or at least the stupid people will learn something!"

If the blue collar rock station in Redding is mocking out Mitt, he's got problems.

Also, even if the whole "airplane windows" thing was a joke. what the hell kind of "joke" was that?

"My wife's plane just caught fire." *lulz*

(Add the "Kitty Dukakis" moment to Xema's list of things that other candidates have been flamed for that Romney is also guilty of.)

Matt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor's second son, told how his father would present his children with a stick of butter, telling them "it's so rotten you have to smell it". When they leaned down he would gleefully shove their faces into the plate.

Mr Romney apparently repeated the trick recently with one of his grandsons, pushing the shocked child's head into a platter of whipped cream.

"I'm unemployed too."
"These cookies are from 7-11"
"You really spent the big bucks on those raincoats."

I mean, Bill's line "ARITHMETIC" was a classic.

But Rmoney?

I can't recall a moment of actual humor.

then I think we should all be forgiven for not noticing. After all, it wasn't funny, and I really can't think of any circumstance or any context where that sentence would sound "funny" rather than "stupid".
