Mitt the Twit or Crack heads Are People Too!
Mitt the Twit or Crack heads Are People Too!
By David Glenn Cox


Sometimes you look for a story, sometimes the story is right there in front of you. It’s Friday, so let’s keep it light, enough with Hillary and Obama. Let’s talk idiocy, rich idiocy! The idiocy of the rich, embodied in one man, one Mitt Romney.

With out too much trouble you can find an episode of Jerry Springer or Oprah or some such program of that genre where some shmoe wins the lottery with some fantastic amount of money and then blows it all. We laugh, because we all assume that we would do better and would love to try, however most of us will never get the chance to have millions of dollars at our fingertips. So then we laugh at the Bozo who blew it all on strippers and cocaine who, now penny less wants his friends back.

My personal favorite is the lottery winner who bought a car dealership, his soon to be ex-wife discovered that he was financing cars for strippers. His excuse was pure altruism, he felt sorry for them and wanted to help them out. Besides he explained, “They couldn’t walk to work or ride the bus dressed like that.” His sudden wealth brought out his charitable side along with his wife’s suspicious nature. But win, lose or draw the lesson is clear, that much wealth will alter your judgement and change your perception of the world.

So, what would you do with unimaginable wealth? Mansions, fancy cars, diamonds maybe trips around the world? Pikers, dare to dream big! Take your money and buy a Governorship or become a Congressman, money is the primary attribute necessary, it’s not like the job takes intelligence. Then after you’ve parleyed your wealth into political office you can buy a promotion, why not the Presidency?

Let’s stop laughing at all the Bozo’s who put their fortune up their nose, besides we’ve all dreamed of the rock star lifestyle at some point in our lives. But Mitt the twit spent 87 million dollars of his own money to aggrandize himself into believing that he had something to offer America. 87 million that’s 3,700 new Shelby Cobra’s or 750 Enzo Ferrari’s or 6 houses on the French Rivera and this twit spent it on a Presidential run that went no where. Why aren’t we laughing?

Not just that he had 87 million but that he had 87 million to lose! So you’ve got your 87 million and now you’re ready to start your own run for the White House what’s the center piece of your platform? Liberal unelected Judges attacking marriage, yes, the sanctity of marriage is the number one problem in America today. Followed by government employees making too much money! You’ve got 87 million dollars to blow on a vanity campaign and you’re worried about mailmen and park rangers making too much money.

Of course tax cuts for the rich goes with out saying, and lets stop those liberal courts from paying out tort damages! Gosh, it’s all so easy, it reminds me of baseball legend Casey Stengal who had retired and had gotten up in years when he was asked if he would ever consider managing again. Stengal replied, “Well, I might consider it in the American League where I don’t have to think.” Such is the case with the Republican Party, no thinking required and when in doubt go extreme!

“ I believe the strength of America lies in the strength of her people. I am running for President because I want to help keep America strong. That means a strong military, strong economy, and strong families. We are facing many challenges, but America has always overcome these challenges in the past and I’m confident that we can do so again.” -Mitt Romney

Not bad for an 8th grade civics essay but for a Presidential candidate? Come on, and he paid money for this snappy sappy pabulum? Maybe Mitt missed the bus along time ago, maybe if he had spent that 87 million dollars feeding the poor and clothing the sick instead of worrying if maybe the poor and sick were overpaid. Then perhaps he could have run for President and someone else would have given him money to run.

But instead, a selfish agenda of meism and corporate greed wrapped in faux patriotism and phony family values. Mitt is gone and good riddance! Anyone with 87 million dollars that they can afford to lose and wants to spend it on a political campaign is a twit. It gives me a new found respect for lottery winning crack heads and whore mongers gone broke, at least they admit they’re dipshits. Romney thinks he did good job while just jerking himself off.
