Counting this guy's flip-flops is like counting bourbon stains on Lindsay Lohan's mattress.

Mitt Romney, that used car salesman presidential candidate, has come up with a new whopper to convince us to buy his Edsel: "I am not anti-gay." He said, "What you look for in a leader is someone who will welcome and treat with respect people who made different choices and have different beliefs in their lives and have differences. I have nothing but respect and feelings of tolerance for people with differences from myself and feel that way with regards to those who are gay...I oppose discrimination against gay people. I am not anti-gay. I know there are some Republicans, or some people in the country who are looking for someone who is anti-gay and that's not me."

Hmm. Looks to me like he saw that opposing any type of legal recognitions for gay couples would help him win over the social conservatives he so desperately needs, so he did it. He had no problem with equality for gays when running for governor in a pro-gay state. Now that he's in the big leagues, he seems to want to do anything to win over the right-wingers. Maybe he could imprison a Muslim in his basement....

OK, I double dare Mitt to walk into Dick Cheney's office and tell him that he thinks Mary and Heather shouldn't raise little Sam because it's not in the kid's best interest, as well that he has no problem with the fact that Heather has no parental rights whatsoever in the state of Virginia. Would Cheney be able to hiss "Go fuck yourself" to a Mormon?

Those who want to have it both ways say something like, "I like you gay people. You're my friends. You do my wife's hair, you give great parties, and you have a real flair with pillows and fabrics. Go ahead and live your lives and do whatever god-forsaken things you do behind closed doors and go to your all night dance parties and give millions to the travel industry. But if you ask for any equality, forget it." MORE...

3. Best line from the Huffpo piece:

"He parades his perfect sons -- Scooter, Biff, Abercrombie, Fitch and the Beaver -- as the perfect American family, along with his perfect wife, perfect marriage and perfect bank account."

:rofl: :rofl:

4. "He understands that Americans only want an image...."

...and that his family has it all over the philandering ex-president, Giuliani's revolving door marriages and the drunken Bush twins., and that his family has it all over the philandering ex-president, Giuliani's revolving door marriages and the drunken Bush twins.
