Anyone else pay witness to the Romney's-running-mate announcement on the news? I was at work, passing through while some guy intro'ed Rom, already rolling my eyes. But then on my way to pass by again to get trays, I hear this music, the kind you'd expect to be followed by a queen's fucking coronation. And there's Rom himself, coming down from a

"Jen, you GOTTA see and hear this crap!"

Yup, that was pretty much my reaction. What a couple of major douches. Wisconsin is the state that just outlawed labor unions, right?

Yesterday I heard Romney say the first thing he was going to do was overturn "Obama care", as the GOP loves to call it. Yeah, Romney, make sure that anything that's good for the common person is killed. What an ass.

Yay! Have fun on vacation!

It was SO failtastic! I don't even feel a black cloud around it, despite it being Romney in the first place. It's just so laughable.

Aren't all US citizens okay, and rich, though? I mean, Romney is. Everyone shares this world. *eyeroll*

[primula_baggins]

If they aren't rich, then they should be thrown out of the US! lol. *eyeroll*

I saw an article that he was going to be announcing Ryan, but couldn't make myself watch it.

Oh, you should've. I'm dead serious, at LEAST for the music that they'd use for astronauts returning from a successful Mars-landing mission. Skip Rom-Bomb's droning speech to 2:18 in the vid. PLEASE. Every time I watch it, I bust out laughing myself to tears. :D

Lol! Oh, you're right, it's hysterical and even more so being the 'Air Force One' theme. Thanks for twisting my arm.

You did catch that Romney introduced him as the next President of the United States, didn't you? *snorts*

Have a great vaca, luv! *smooch*

I'm wishing you the best for your vacation!

I didn't know Paul Ryan, but the few things I read after R-money's announcement (hilarious, I agree:)) made me think he's more than a smarmy prick; his opinions are as dangerous as Palin's, but Palin was a "cruche" as we say here (cruche=jug, ie a dumbbell, someone whose head is empty), whereas Ryan doesn't look so stupid... for a Republican, of course.

They know they can't win with these duds. Their goal as always is to make people distrust government as much as they can and turn them off from getting out to vote. It's usually the Republicans best strategy--keeping the middle of the roaders disaffected works, for those who aren't stupid enough to believe trickle down economics isn't yellow colored liquid on their own shoes. But I think enough of us have-nots are clued in that we need Obama for his second round to get things done. I hope I'm not being too optimistic, but I'm not too worried about this election. I just hope people aren't stupid enough again this round to vote in more Republican Congresscritters to keep tying Obama's hands.

If you don't know who Ryan is, I will tell you:

First, Ryan makes my stomach roil.

Second, he's the person who said "we get our rights from God and nature, not government" (paraphrasing but this is pretty close). After he said this, the surrounding crowd started chanting "USA, USA" etc. I just heard this on the radio, so it stuck in my head.

I wonder if Ryan or his fans ever read the U. S. Constitution and Bill of Rights?

Try not to think of those smarmy twins and have a GREAT vacation!! *squishes*
