1. Oh dear...

What's that old phrase, "if you're explaining, you're losing"?

[Indpndnt]

8. Right, if you have to tell someone you're something or someone, you're not.

Not even close.

[aletier_v]

2. He doesn't disdain the poor... he feeds on them!

[TrollBuster9090]

30. He doesn't disdain the poor...he CREATES them!

Or better yet: "If Mitt really hated the poor, why would he have created SO MANY of them?"

[corkhead]

43. What you said, but I was going to say "they're delicious"

[lonestarnot]

3. Well tomorrow, he going to be having his "I'm not a terrorist" moments.

[gordianot]

41. I suspect you are correct. It is hyperbole to say a politician is a threat, in Romney's case....

If a Democratic candidate made the same comment about dirty bombs they would be ruined. This ass does not even have a clue what a dirty bomb is and that it does not require fission just some radioactive waste. As I remember the last Republican administration detained and probably tortured an ignorant thug for thinking about it. Romney needs to be locked up and put on medication. No hyperbole intended.

4. After all ...the poor have friends that throw sex parties too ...right?

[trusty elf]

28. ........

48. +1 ...love that flag.

[tibbiit]

5. Did he have his Monocle on when he said this?

His Mr Peanut tux and monocle lol.

[nolabear]

6. They removed the video. Does that mean he DOES disdain the poor?

Btw the comments on that article are hysterical.

[aquart]

7. Video removed. Oh why?

[greyl]

11. It's here: (and she looks swerved)

Watch her arm fall off the table at about 1:55 after she says "Totally not so."

(Btw, was a tweet by you in the crawl during the Ed Show the other night?)

[lonestarnot]

12. Is that the whole 55 minutes?

[greyl]

15. It's the whole 7:20 :) nt

[nolabear]

13. When I click on it, it says it's been removed.

<<<TZ Music>>>

[greyl]

14. Hmm.

It's the second video here, under "UPDATE: Here is the full interview from Denver's Fox 31":

[SunSeeker]

32. She doesn't actually say "Mitt doesn't disdain the poor."

She just says "no" when the Fox anchor asks her if Mitt disdains the poor. Did the video that was taken down actually have her saying that?

[marew]

23. Noticed that just as it happened. I'd stay out of her way! n/t

[Poll_Blind]

25. Great catch! And they were in a single shot with her so it was really apparent!

PB

[PD Turk]

9. I don't think he has any disdain for the poor

I doubt he thinks of them at all...

[pokerfan]

39. Exactly

You despise the poor, don't you?
Well, if I gave them any thought, I probably would.

(paraphrasing Casablanca)

[cr8tvlde]

10. Anyone remember "I am not a crook?" Groan.

[mykpart]

21. Exactly what I thought of

when I saw the title of the video.

[TrollBuster9090]

33. Nixon says:

"This crackpot O'Donnell just made a political ad entitled 'I Am Not a WITCH?'
Fuckin' A!
Somebody finally made my 'I Am Not a Crook' speech look GOOD by comparison."

[Barack_America]

16. Couldn't she say, "Mitt cares about the poor" without choking?

[nadinbrzezinski]

17. Bumbling

pass some of that...



It is fun to come home from covering a local city council debate (where the bumblings were not even close to this level... in fact, any of those four could possibly run rings 'round Mitt, and one it is her first time at this rodeo)

you are in trouble when a city council neub does better than a fracking candidate for the presidency of the United States.

[tblue37]

18. How funny--I made exactly the same point in a post

on another thread 13 minutes ago! I called it his "I am not a witch" ad.

[burrowowl]

19. K&R

[marew]

20. Wow! Ann had that 'look' in her eyes!

She is NOT a happy camper! She could not hide that "darn you small people" attitude one bit!

[Indpndnt]

26. Well, she has said it's "their turn" in the White House now. Hers and Willard's.

Why? Because they said so?

[Aerows]

29. Both of them just disgust me

I'd rather have George and Laura than have to look at these two entitled assholes, and comparing George and Laura Bush against someone and them NOT being entitled assholes compared to them is saying something.

Ann and Mitt give me the creeps.

[TrollBuster9090]

38. You can just hear what she's thinking: "Oh please, I hope this doesn't mean I'll have to go outside

and get PAWED by the peasants for the photographers. They have such a foul odor. I'll be washing it out of my hair for weeks."

[Cha]

22. "Disdain"?! WTF..

[Cha]

24. Btw, the first few comments

on the site are Priceless!

[Aerows]

27. I don't smoke pot

But I think I could smoke a shitload of it and conduct a better campaign than this one ten minutes afterwards.

"Doesn't disdain the poor?"

"Oh, Mitt, he's a great guy. He doesn't drop his trousers and piss on homeless people, or take a shit in a poor child's school lunch. He's a great guy like that."

[xxqqqzme]

31. Ahhh, I missed it.....

damn! It has been removed from all the links.

[Tx4obama]

34. It is still there on the link below

The SECOND video here: http://www.buzzfeed.com/zekejmiller/ann-romney-mitt-doesnt-disdain-the-poor

[NotThisTime]

44. Where does she say it? I just listened to the full 7:20 and didn't hear those words

[Astazia]

35. Link says REMOVED by user. Does anyone have a copy to view?

Pweeeeeze....pwetty pweeze? Thx, Taz

[bluesbassman]

37. Scroll down, there's a second video link that works. n/t

[bluesbassman]

36. "This is a guy who obviously doesn't need to do this for a job" she says while flashing her Rolex.

Good grief.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

42. This is a country that doesn't need Romney to pretend to do the job. nt

[appleannie1]

40. If you have to tell people you are normal, you are not. If you have to tell them you were not

showing disdain when you said they would never be responsible for themselves, you were showing them disdain. I don't care how 'elegantly' you put it. Hey Mitt. As one of the the 47 percent people, I will show you my taxes for the past 15 years if you show me yours. I have nothing to hide.

[alsame]

45. She should have just said

"I love you peasaaaaants!"


[IMG][/IMG]

[cr8tvlde]

49. Allow me to add a title ..."I've seen Mitt's tax returns and you never will" !!

[porphyrian]

46. "Be calm, cattle, and march passively to your productivity stations for full capital extraction."n/t

[cr8tvlde]

50. Just Ewwwww

[BumRushDaShow]

47. "Mitt Doesn't Disdain the Poor"

They are the help. They clean up our messes bless their hearts!

[lumberjack_jeff]

51. This is sooooo awesome.

It's like LBJ's tactic of calling his opponent a pig fucker, just to hear him deny it, except the opponent is the one making the allegation.



"Yeah, I know what I said, but I don't hate poor people! Honest, some of my best serv... err friends are poor!"
