Sorry Mr. Etch a Sketch, but we all heard you proudly firing Big Bird because he gets government subsidies. Big Bird is a 47 percenter.

What a flip flopping, say anything to be president weasel Romney is.

FISHERSVILLE, Va. -- Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney has described his disparaging remarks about the 47 percent of Americans who don't pay federal income taxes as "not elegantly stated." Now he's calling them "just completely wrong."

The original remarks, secretly recorded during a fundraiser in May and posted online in September by the magazine Mother Jones, sparked intense criticism of Romney and provided fodder to those who portray him as an out-of-touch millionaire oblivious to the lives of average Americans. The remarks became a staple of Obama campaign criticism.

Initially, Romney defended his view, telling reporters at a news conference shortly after the video was posted that his remarks were "not elegantly stated" and that they were spoken "off the cuff." He didn't disavow them, however, and later adopted as a response when the remarks were raised that his campaign supports "the 100 percent in America."

In an interview Thursday night with Fox News, Romney was asked what he would have said had the "47 percent" comments come up during his debate in Denver on Wednesday night with President Barack Obama.

3. He said it in a comfortable setting, sounded sincere and derisive of people not paying into income

tax, he was in his element.

2. He plans to govern by delayed remorse.

So, Mr. Glassy-eyed-smirk is going to create Medicare vouchers, then say things from "I'm sorry. That was an oops but we can't go back. Not my fault really; I didn't mean it to destroy Medicare." to "Oops, about that nuclear war with Iran. I didn't mean it to go nuke. Israel forgot to ask me.... Oh that right, you have it on video; Well, I just shouldn't have agreed and I'm really really sorry. MOMIE!! They're pickin' on me; can I beat them up?"
