This is all you need to know about Mitt Romney.
My jaw dropped so violently when he said this that it popped.
I have the more flexible schedule, but my husband does the cooking. :)

Fox News removes Mitt Romney's answer to Gun Control Question from the transcript of the debate.
It’s in the transcript as “Audio Gap” (Do a page find for it in your browser, as its a long page).
I watched it live, so let me paraphrase. Governor Romney believes that the solution to gun crime is people getting married before they have children and that single parenthood dooms children. Therefore, less gun violence.
He then did some soft shoe and and yelled “THE ARISTOCRATS!”
Best debate synopsis of the morning.

So Mitt Romney’s baby Bain capital owns this company (Romney currently personally holds their stock as well) Sensata, based in Bainport, IL, shipped in replacement workers from China to be trained by current employees. These employees will lose their jobs by the end of the year.
They also visited Romney’s campaign headquarters in Wisconsin to hand deliver an appeal to save their jobs.
The Romney campaign locked them out first.
Then they called the cops on them. Because wanting to deliver a frigging letter to a Presidential candidate, appealing to him to not send your job to China is apparently a criminal offense.
Video of attempted letter delivery, cop and all.
This needs to spread like wildfire.
Reblog widely please.
I live 15 minutes from here. Is this for real?
For-Profit College Touted by Romney as Affordable Is Third Most Expensive College in America -- and a Big Romney Donor.
HuffPo keepin’ that shit real.
This. OMG. Have you been to a Radio Shack and asked for a piece of a thing? I have and it was like this. Yes it was.
Yeah, just kidding. The only people who won are the people who watched the season premiere of Supernatural instead.
Romney is just such an ass. He only won because makes his own lies sound credible. The sign of a psychopath.

He then asked, according to a journalists’ pool report of the visit: “Did the water come from the sky, or the rivers, or the ocean?”

I find it amusing that she owns a horse that requires more tax write-offs than than i make in years. And yes, therapy riding is a thing, though usually reserved for “special needs” children. I guess she qualifies.Is the Olympic Romney horse stealing jobs from hard-working Americans? Is “horse riding therapy” really a thing? What the hell is dressage, anyway? And what’s it got to do with the song stylings of the Carpenters?
Everything You Wanted Know About Rafalca, the Romneys’ Olympic Horse, But Were Afraid to Ask
A new kind of explainer for us.
(This pic isn’t the Romneys’ horse, but it’s the sort of anti-gravity trick she’ll do in London. via)

Marriage has taken various forms in different eras and cultures. According to biblical accounts, Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines and slaves. Sexual fidelity was not expected of men; the Israeli prohibition against adultery applied only to married or betrothed women. David’s sin with Bathsheba was because she was married, not because he was. He was encroaching on another man’s property, which was a violation of Biblical law — even for a king. According to Jay Michealson of Religious Dispatches, “In biblical society, when you conquered another city, tribe, or nation, the victorious men would ‘win’ their defeated foes’ wives as part of the spoils. … if a man died, his younger brother would have to marry his widow and produce heirs with her who would be considered the older brother’s descendants.” Those were the “traditional family values” of that day. There were even laws governing the proper treatment of the first wife, should a man decide to take a second one — customs from more or less the same era as the oft-cited Leviticus passage. Mitt Romney’s claim that marriage has been between one man and one woman for 3,000 years (an odd assertion for the great-grandson of a man with five wives), is about as historically accurate as “The Flintstones” cartoon.
