Mitt Romney: picture, without words

[Gabi Hayes]

Please, no homophobic comments.

I'm serious, because this picture deserves to be seen, and a previous thread was locked because of its apparent homophobia.

So can you just please comment on something else regarding the picture, like the look on his FACE?

[walldude]

1. And why does this picture deserve to be seen?

It's a dork on the campaign trail.

[Gabi Hayes]

Maybe cause it shows how NUTS he is?

for starters?

can you imagine if that were Bush in the picture?

who in the hell is this guy's advance man, anyway?

has he been fired yet?

Please, Rudy, get your ass to that fudge factory, soonest!

[petepillow]

17. cuz it's a chuckler! i chuckled out loud...

and shouldn't we be spreading the laughter?

:)

2. This is up there with pics of Foley in a lab coat

Oh, okay - and Dukakis riding the tank!

[knight_of_the_star]

3. Honestly

The look on his face looks like he's going to enjoy what he's about to do and it's going to somehow involve inflicting pain on someone.

4. Mitt strikes me as someone who's doing the wrong job.

He should be the host of a late night B-movie horror flick show. "Dr. Mitt's House of Shit," or something like that.

[Gabi Hayes]

9. for posts number three and four....thank you. that's exactly it.

Dr. Tung's 3-D House of Pancakes?

Oooooohhhhh!!!!! Verrrry Scary!

[Gabi Hayes]

5. oops...wrong post replied to

.

[Forkboy]

6. I think it'd be best if I just moved along

:D

[KingFlorez]

7. I guess he wanted to protect himself before shaking Ann Coulter's hand

[Catherine Vincent]

8. A lot of people think he's good looking but I actually think he's creepy looking.

[Fresh_Start]

11. something Bela Lugosi like

about his eyes.

[SpiralHawk]

10. Demonstrates what he and fellow repulicons do to America

With smiles of demonic glee.

Jack Nicholson spoke the perfect unwelcome caption for this photo, uttering a memorable fudge line in one of his films, a line which shall remain unquoted herein.

[Gabi Hayes]

15. Would you please do me a favor, as I can't come up with the line?

would you mind PM-ing it to me?

I can't think of it to save my life.

thx a lot.

here's your reward:

23. Hi Gabi - The film was "As Good as it Gets." 1997

Nicholson is playing the character Melvin Udall. The phrase begins with fudge...as The Mittmiester would surely recall.

[Gabi Hayes]

27. thanks...no wonder. I've never seen that movie.

maybe I'll have to rent it, just for the line.

thx

12. he looks insane like i imagane a serial killer looks when they have just spotted their next victim.

[Lars39]

13. He looks like Lon Chaney in Arsenic and Old Lace.

[Graybeard]

26. That was Raymond Massey made up to look like Boris Karloff...

..Lon Chaney was not in the movie. Mitt could have played the part easily however.

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

14. Please tell me that is NOT a real photo

?

[Gabi Hayes]

18. Well, now that you mention it, I looked at 'properties,' and it's not directly

from Yahoo, or any other news source, and it's from somebody's blog, so it might be shopped

DAMN! if it is.

I'm going to see if I can find the blog whence it comes, and see what's up.

if this isn't real, it's a shame.

still, and all, that LOOK is real, no matter the context.

am I right?

FAR right, like they all are.

that look of gleeful anticipation is frightening, regardless of whether the glove (or the picture) has been, uh, inserted.

EDIT: on second thought, that glove shot looks to be real to me. If not, it's a pretty good photoshop, isn't it?

[NDP]

16. I immediately thought about the Family Guy episode where Peter sued his doctor for

checking his prostate.

[Gabi Hayes]

20. now THAT made me LOL!

I had a female doctor do that once, and wanted to ask her out, but thought better of it, for some reason.

[Hand]

19. A pompadour in the making...

I mean, what the hell is with the hair style? :wtf:

[Crunchy Frog]

21. What is this, ice cream sodas and prostate exams?

(I don't think there's anything homophobic about that.)

22. REAL PIC.. not photoshopped.. here's the caption (REUTERS)
