Mittens!

Why did darth believe the jokes he chose were funny? Shooting?

Now I understand why pravda thinks dennis miller is funny......they have absolutely piss poor humor, the repugs.

He had only one reason to drop out: He was not going to win.

Oh Mitt. You should be down in texas saving all those lost souls from the phelps compound and adopting some of those children. The church of latter day saints COMPELLS YOU!!

Funny how Mitt didint knock that. I mean he could have said something like ´´Glad it wasint my religion that texas and feds raided, all you would find in my compound in joe liberman and rudy ghouliani. No working hand radios either. We send smoke signals out folks.´´

But then again Mormons,, those slick folk,, Mitt could have said the truth, ´´my kids told me piss away my inheratince dad and your ass is toast when your old and cant comb that ken doll hair either´´!

And with that ,, I shall bid you all a fine good eveing and even better tomorow. Till then, DONT PAY TAXES!!!
claim (its true for many) that you dont have any money to pay after losing a job or house and the credit ppl want all your money!! Yes they come first, Now that would be the hoot in the ass of the owl that woodsey blew.
The IRS cannot collect taxes due to lending companys that have tax payers locked and grapevined!!!!!

Nighters folks,, and thanks again Crooks & Liars for a decent blog to post comments on.

Best regards,,,

well if this isn't proof of liberal media bias i don't know what is (sarcasm highly intended)

dear god

"Double Gitmo," had a lot to do with it, IMO.

This was funnier than Darth Cheney

I guess his sons are still hiding out in the election bus, protecting America from the terrorists.

Perhaps his exhortations on fine haberdasery further alienated him from the embittered citizens of Pennsylvania.

ronnyg @ 6:

Um, actually, I thought it was a funny top 10. Uncle Mitty was not surprising a bit stiff, but the jokes were self-deprecating (and yeah he took shots at Hillary and Gore, but pretty funny I thought). It almost made him seem not like an asshole.

Yeah. I'm with you.

Ruthless People @ 4:

Mittens: " I guess I get more coverage now then I used to get on CBS"

Had Mittens gotten more coverage he would have had to drop out sooner.

The guy's got more reasons for dropping out than for he has reasons for he and his sons not serving in combat duty that he champions for other people's kids to fight.

And the fat dig at Al Gore was just plain tacky...but then again, he is a Republican, tacklessness is par for the course.

Yep. repugs games, silly, cheap and old.

12th reason Mitt dropped out:

Mitt fathered 22 kids living at a polygamous West Texas cult compound. Mitt was afraid paternity suits would be filed.

Good comedy writing: bad comedian. Get a sense of humor folks. That wasn't a slam on Gore. Al would probably laugh at it himself (if someone funny was telling it).
That said, Mitt's a creep.

Funny bit. Delivery was fine. Heard it on public radio on the home commute and laughed out loud. The hyper-partisans here really need to get out more. The long winter is over. Take a walk, let the sun shine on your face, relax for just one minute.

Laugh a little.
Or don't. Be bitter.

Hard to tell jokes when you're crying.

xoites defends Constitution @ 18:

LongTooth @ 16:

You don't think Romney's crack about the Osmonds' ("I thought there were more of them") was chuckle-worthy? Geeez, tough crowd.. Is this microphone on?...

Romney is a lot more dangerous than he is funny. His viewpoint on the world is wrong headed to put it politely. I find no humor in his attempt to make himself look like an ordinary American when in fact he is more ellite than Obama has been accused of and far less inteligent.

Obliged for the solid insight. Still, I'm not quite the naif you seem to take me for.

I actually watched the original broadcast of Rowan & Martin's Laugh In, in which Richard Nixon looked into a camera and said, "Sock it to me"?

Now, I was raised to think that the man's first name was That-Sonofabitch, not Richard. And, although just a kid in '68, I realized he said it because he was running for the presidency. No one had to explain it to me.

Maybe you had to have been there, to understand the point I'm making.

Or perhaps it boils down to the fact that the Fuhrer was a great dancer.

Sorry guys-- this was a decent list.. the jokes were good -- even the slams on gore and hillary. I don't mind them when they're semi-clever.

B

Actually, that’s the funniest part.

I disagree; I thought the cardboard cutout joke was by far the worst part. Mitt himself -- not so bad, I thought. I was expecting much worse.

Was the entire dinner like this? One big Republican dinner party?

The Conservative radio and TV Broadcasters dinner?

The democratic party has clearly been hijacked by the extreme leftwing. For left-leaning independents, this is very frustrating. The extreme righwing nuts of the Republican party took control of the party and they gave us George W. Bush. The democratic party is in danger of repeating the same mistake---not electing the most capable person into the white house. Our country needs Clinton NOW. There is no time for the empty "hope" talks. In Wednesday debate, it was obvious that while Hillary has provided detailed and substantive proposals, Obama spent most of his time describing this country's problems that we already know. He provided little insight on the solutions to these problems. Obama, I am afraid, is quite hollow in terms of his plan to lead this country to a better future. We need to alarm the democratic party that many independent voters could turn to McCain if Obama is nominated. I think this scenario is quite real and it has not been talked about enough in the main stream media. Take a look. http://ivotemccainifobamaisnominated.blogspot.com/ (I vote for McCain if Obama is nominated)

See post @136 re:Rachel mADDOW VS.jOE sCAREdude
Also: I totally disagree.Nothing changes until it becomes real.Obama has made most of the problems facing us real by talking about them.Hillary`s still ducking them.They`re both off the mark on Iraq and single payer health care.Eirher would make a better president than McCain.

Do you think Mitt knows you can't buy a Nobel prize either?

L.A. Confidential @ 2:

I'll give you six.

Oil at $110 a barrel. Gasoline at $3.35 (or more) per gallon. Diesel fuel at $4 per gallon. Independent truckers forced off the road. Home heating oil rising to unconscionable price levels. Jet fuel so expensive that three low-cost airlines stopped flying in the past few weeks.

And the solution is: let's raise taxes on the oil companies. Those foolish Republicans. Don't they know that will only increase the cost of gas and diesel.

number 11: i'm a plastic douchebag to craven for even the rethuglicans.

These are actually from the Cheney "comedy" video, which I haven't watched, but they work perfectly here too, so I thought I'd save myself some typing. That's pathetic, isn't it (that they apply here too)?

3 Philip Combs Says: War criminal toadying to ignorant assholes who think they matter. What an edifying spectacle. Yuk it up you vile, fat, old piece of human waste.

Your days are numbered.

DITTO!!!!!

1 willie Says: it can and never will get any lower than when bush did his little “no weapons of mass distruction here” video while american troops were being killed. i can not imagine any event that should have outraged the media and the american people more. and yet MSM said little about it. oh how i miss the days of true journalism.

DITTO!!!!!

And there we have it.

pretty funny except the "Al Gore is fat" insult

Mitt Romney’s Top Ten Reasons I Dropped Out

Ran out of money?

two dems , one a past president and one a past vice president, win a nobel prize and repubes show absolutley no respect for that accomplishment. it is a lame joke punch line.
in my memory i can think of no former republican president or vice president that accomplished half as much after their term. anyone? if there was a repube to mention, repubes would have been carving his face on mount rushmore, demanding a national holiday in the honor of them and naming babies after them.
so i ask, why do repubes hate americans that accomplish so much on the world stage?
mitt's biggest accomplishment has been a good hair day and coordinating the olympics. pales by comparison. lets hope his current P.R. campaign for V.P. ends soon so he can once again be an unknown pretty boy dorkwad.

I thought he quit because he was getting the shit kicked out of him despite spending money like a drunken Bush.

No, Romney. You dropped out because you knew you were going to lose. And the longer you stayed in, the less likely you'd have been chosen for vice president.

I'm so glad the bobble-headed dousche didn't get the nod! If McCain is smart, he won't select this ass to be his VP, either, which is clearly what he's sniffing around for!

EliteLemming @ 30:

......and a fat oil baron stuck in the fire exit.

Now, that was funny!
