Honestly, Mitt Romney cracks me up sometimes ("Democrats are monarchists")

Top Republicans kick off campaign to reshape their party's image

ARLINGTON, Virginia (CNN) – Three prominent GOP leaders kicked off a campaign Saturday to reshape their party's image, gathering at a restaurant in Northern Virginia for the first of a series of town hall meetings.

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney compared the GOP to Americans fighting the British during the Revolutionary War. "We are the party of the revolutionaries, they {Democrats} are the party of the monarchists," he told the overwhelmingly Republican crowd, saying the Republicans needed to "once again lead the American Revolution."

He blamed Washington for setting in motion policies that led to the collapse of the housing market, and painted his party's current minority status as a boon.

"We have an advantage," said the former Republican presidential candidate. "When a party has the White House, communication comes top down, and there's a strategy that everyone has to march behind." Instead, he said, the GOP had the option of drawing its strategy from the grassroots.

"We don't have to come up with all the answers today. Thank goodness, we have a little time," he said. "Certainly by 2010, we better."

"A little bit of time"--good one, Mitt. Are we sure he's not working undercover for our side?

1. funny mittens

the closest thing we've had to a monarchy recently(with one family controlling the White House with two administrations) has been from the Republican party.

[MADem]

2. He's a nitwit. Mittsy the Shittsy is a fool with money. He doesn't realize how

he's regarded either.

Anytime I see him, I think of Seamus the setter, the dog he abused by strapping the poor animal to the roof of his car and driving at seventy miles an hour to Canada, where he would take his family for their annual summer vacation. The dog, frightened out of its wits, shit down the back of the station wagon.

The station wagon contained all of the Romney family, AND the luggage. Now tell me why the DOG couldn't have ridden in the car, with the luggage on top?

That's Mittsy for ya! http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1638065,00.html

5. LOL! AT me. I win the Too Stupid To Live Prize

I read your post "strapping the poor animal to the roof of the car" and envisioned a Lab in bondage straps or something. It didn't occur to me it was in a car carrier.

11. Hey, Mittsy looks like the type that would get out the bungee cords!

He's, as we say in the Land of the Bean and the Cod, a baaaaaaaaaaas-tid! A wick-id baaaaaaaaaaaas-tid!

[Towlie]

3. He's not working for their side or ours, he's working for his own side.

10. I opened a thread on Bain Capital the other day

no response from the enlightened membership here. If they had a clue, they'd know Mitt is for Mitt and NO ONE else.

4. and what do you call it when

'communication' comes from limpballs and norquist? rite-side ways?

[roseBudd]

6. I like how they always go "we're the party of Lincoln!" as if over 100 years ago is applicable

[glowing]

7. How many people even showed up for that pizza party?

The numbers looked worse than the tea bagging fiasco.

8. Saddle my horse!

I want to relive the ride of Paul Revere!

What's Stan Freberg up to these days?

[tanyev]

9. LOL. They now have an advantage because they're not in the White House.

You go, Mitt.

[MADem]

12. I hope they retain that "advantage" for a long, long time. nt

[asjr]

13. The Repub party has become the

party of Nit-Wits. The only Republican worth a hoot was Eisenhower and I think he really was a Democrat in a secret life.

[underpants]

14. Conservatives resist change. Conservatives ("Tories") backed the crown

plus Mitt himself is a legacy. His entire career is the result of being his father's kid and the good-old-boys (blue blood) system of private schools and top heavy corporations.

15. That'd be funny coming from the Lord of the Leveraged Buy-Outs if he hadn't dealt so much Pain.

[yy4me]

16. Just be glad you don't live in MA and never had to live with him

as Governor. Mittens is nothing but a do-nothing bag of hot air. Every time I see a picture of him I want to say something naughty.
