To answer the birthers--the "Citizeners?"

http://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/washington-whispers/2012/09/21/mitt-romney-calls-usa-a-foreign-country-in-his-tax-returns

I know, I know, we should resist the temptation to sink to their level. But after this typo that even a failed accountant should have caught (if, indeed it WAS a typo), Romney left himself open to claims that he, by his own signed declaration to the IRS, considers the United States of America to be a foreign country. If this is not (or no longer) the case, let him prove it, and he should be aware beforehand that we will not believe any documentation they will provide, what with Romney being a natural-born citizen of Liechtenstein and all.

If the Romney camp complains that such nonsense borders on silliness, we can suggest they look in the mirror to find where we got our inspiration.

We should be prepared for Romney complaining that Joe Biden was getting all the attention for his gaffes from the liberal press, and that Mitt Romney could do much better, and here's the proof that he has the necessary experience...........
