38. Now it's powdered sugar

Thu Feb 23, 2012, 11:16 AM

Feb 2012

Here's part of his amazingly awkward speech:

"...the white powder or the white sugar, powdered sugar, that's the word, powdered sugar on top of the pazcki (pooch-key) reminded me of what's going on outside, how beautiful it is. Michigan looks so beautiful when the snow comes with a fresh powdered sugar all over everything."

WTF? Psssssssst, Mitt, old pal, we Michiganders just call it snow, not "powdered sugar all over everything."

He's like an alien programmed to act like a human but something's just a little off.

If Mitt loves cars, shouldn't he love roads also? Does he love roads more than trees and lakes? yellowcanine Feb 2012 #11
