So.... I'm not allowed to talk about Mitt's Olympic experience, taxes, Bain or time as governor....

Nor am I to talk about Paul Ryan's budget plans that would basically destroy seniors and the poor.

So tell me why are these 2 asshats even qualified to be president if I can't talk about their biggest talking points which would allow one to decide if they are qualified or not.

Just curious

When you have to rely on the wholesale stupidity of the American people to sell crushing austerity, you're kind of in deep shinola.

Or not.

yes they are empty headed, but that's not what I mean.

Only an empty headed unquestioning repuke would be happy with these two morons.

My ex husband does that, and amazingly, it does NOT qualify him to run the Country!

I had a weird dream about Romney and Ryan together the other night, I think that their handlers might want to ratchet down the "work out buddy" thing a bit if they want to appeal to the heartland. Right now they look like two self centered bffs who work out in their office together... and have never pulled a weed or swept a floor in their adult lives.

so what's left? They say they want to talk about their *ideas* and *policies* but they won't tell us what they are beyond vague generalities.
