"Independent" in the same sense that Ken Starr was, meaning "not very independent" indeed!


Looney Toon Politics

April 6th, 2007

I can’t help but laugh when I read this. Seriously, what is wrong with Massachusetts politicians? Michael Dukakis goes riding in a tank; John Kerry won’t release documents that’ll prove he isn’t lying about his THREE PURPLE HEARTS; Mitt Romney wants to be the Republican nominee for President but admits he’s more Elmer Fudd than John Wayne.

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is taking a second shot at describing his hunting experience. The former Massachusetts governor has called himself a lifelong hunter, yet his campaign acknowledged that he has been on just two hunting trips _ one when he was 15 and the other just last year. Campaigning in Indianapolis on Thursday, Romney said he has hunted small game since his youth. “I’m not a big-game hunter. I’ve made that very clear,” he said. “I’ve always been a rodent and rabbit hunter. Small varmints, if you will. I began when I was 15 or so and I have hunted those kinds of varmints since then. More than two times.”

He should drop out of the race right now and spare himself further embarrassment, but I imagine that he’s shooting for Quayle: that is, the Vice Presidency, although I imagine him falling off a cliff before I see him, say, joining someone and leading them to victory in an intergalactic basketball game.

Not much else to say about poor Mitt Romney. Except for, That’s all folks!
