Greta's "reporting"

is so bad, it's like reading the Onion. She's in the pool following Romney, and described the visit to the Westerplatte Memorial in Gdansk (a memorial to the defenders of the invasion of Poland by Germany, the first battle in the european theater WW2, 180 Polish soldiers repelled attacks of 3500 Germans for 7 days):

"A large obelisk-kind-of-gigantic stone monument with words and faces carved into its edifice towers over the top of this hill."

What words Greta? Whose faces? What is it in memorial to, Greta? Aren't you the least bit curious? A big funny shaped rock with words and pictures, thats it?


Photo of Mittens & Ann at Westerplatte, explaining to son Josh what "war" is, since family tradition has provided no experience for generations of Romneys as far back as the first descendants from England. Josh had never heard of the word before.

This may be a garment made from the skin of some unfortunate cousin of that fish.

This ensemble looks like it started as 5 different outfits and a creative designer was going for 'shabby chic'.

Massive fail.

Is that a bankers color? The color of financial success?

I'm more used to charcoal or hues of grey..

Maybe it's his summer color.

They may even end up applying for VA benefits.
