KALAMAZOO — Mitt Romney had some advice for his Kalamazoo audience tonight.

If you want the cheapest grave site in Michigan, look no further than Brighton.

The Republican presidential candidate said during his 40-minute talk in Kalamazoo:

We were in Detroit this morning, at the Detroit Economic Club, then through Mount Clemens, then drove here across the interstate.

Drove past Brighton. My parents' grave sites are there. My dad — trust my dad — my dad is a very frugal man. He checked all over for where the best deal was on a grave site. And he found a place in Brighton — because we didn't live in Brighton.

It’s like, "How did you pick Brighton dad?"

"Well, it's the best price I could find in the whole state."

1. Also next to the home of the John Birch Society (Howell). nt

2. What on Earth is wrong with that man?

Getting to know Willard has been a deeply unsettling experience.

12. He's being honest, in a way.

He's a Social Darwinist. That's the whole point of this economy: to drive the useless eaters into the grave without the use of cattle cars or concentration camps.

We're not being honest with ourselves by not understanding that this is the whole point of capitalism.

[pinboy3niner]

3. That's an anecdote in need of a grave site

[Historic NY]

17. A place to bury another Rmoney's Presidential aspirations.

4. The rich tend to be frugal. I think Romney should contact me and spend a million dollars on some

noodlebrain.com coaching so he can break his automaticity that so many are bored with, and then come back to life so people can see what he really has to offer in his heart, but cannot find the emotion to say. I can help. Someone tell him to look me up, quick.

50% in escrow, 10% per week for each satisfied result for 5 weeks, then I get the other 50% when he wins the republican nominee election. And it will be a lot more fun for him. BTW, I will be voting for Obama.. but, I have always rooted for Romney to be his competitor. I can see he is a good person, and probably will do what the people want, even more than Obama will, if he gets in. That is probably why the right is so scared of him. They cannot control this man once he is in charge. Rich people are so cheap, he probably won't realize the virtue of simplicity and some good old fashion coaching on the basis of western thought: Ethics, Logic, and Passion. My credentials are great.

Someone tell him. [e-mail]. I can help. I have lots of UI time on my hands waiting for my MA to start in the fall.

5. Brighton, MI

Home of a child involved in one of the most horrific child murder cases in Michigan history. It happened in 1984 and I am sure most people no longer remember. But still jarred me.

6. You know, most people only have two feet

so there's a limit to how many they can put in their mouth at once, but Willard is rewriting the friggin' book. W is probably somewhere having this read to him and going, "What a dumbass."

[Whisp]

9. lolz

that cracked me up.

[eShirl]

22. ...but Willard is a human millipede.

hope you don't mind, I finished the title of your post

[JI7]

7. how does one do satire with this type of stuff ?

[Whisp]

8. what the hell is wrong with that man?

or the people that are helping and pushing him to be President. lordy.

10. "and it is only 116 miles, one way

so your funeral procession will take pretty much forever and nobody will ever come to visit your grave after you are gone.

Ya know, we drove right past where my parents are buried today and didn't even slow down. Family values at work"



Edit to add: I made this whole thing up. Please do not take it seriously, it is not a quote (although the 116 miles is accurate).

[Bozita]

15. The Interstate that takes you from Mt. Clemens to Kzoo is I-94. Brighton is off I-96

I-96 heads NW to Grand Rapids. I-94 heads W from Mt. Clemens all the way to Kzoo.

He was never even closer than 20 miles from his parents' graves in Brighton when he drove through Ann Arbor on I-94.

The Mittster is a bullshitter!

[Motown_Johnny]

18. I wasn't serious

I live near I-94 and Moross. My old boy scout camp is near Brighton and my father was from Kalamazoo. I sill have cousins there.

It was a joke.

16. "Ya know, we drove right past where my parents are buried today and didn't even slow down."

Sadly, someone will have to explain to him the problem with that.

[salin]

11. Huh?

Who talks about such things in a speech? Odd - on so many levels.

[Firebrand Gary]

13. Oh for fucks sake, this guy is totally out of touch. How creepy weird can he get? ugh...n/t

[etherealtruth]

14. He really does not have a clue ...

... how to relate to the 99%

[pansypoo53219]

19. when sociopaths run for president.

[MADem]

20. He makes herky-jerky disjointed Dubya sound downright folksy, doesn't he? nt

21. The GOP clown show never stops
