the promo was false so I just went to the Romney campaign site and saw that it was real.

This is just after the airplane window snafu.
Is his campaign this stupid to draw attention to the airplane snafu?

Three bucks gets you on the plane.

The freepers and other repubs are trying to spin it as a joke. You know, the "snafu" you mentioned? They say he said it as a deliberate joke, that he isn't stupid.

Understand? I should've been much more clear.

The confusion over whether or not it's fake (it's not) is because there is also a fake one out there...

The fake one was posted in GD by TalkingDog:

Of course, we're not saying anything about getting down in one piece, if Mitt has his way with the windows ...
