Mitt Romney, Oct. 22nd, 2012: “In the 2000 debates there was no mention of terrorism, for instance. And a year later, 9/11 happened. So we have to make decisions based upon uncertainty.”
Survey says…
Sen. Joe Lieberman, Oct. 5th, 2000: “In fact, this administration has begun to transform the American military to take it away from being a Cold War force to prepare it to meet the threats of the new generation of tomorrow, of weapons of mass destruction, of ballistic missiles, terrorism, cyber warfare.”
Vice President Al Gore, Oct. 17th, 2000: “In the Congress, in the House of Representatives, I served on the House Intelligence Committee and I worked hard to learn the subject of nuclear arms control and how we can diffuse these tensions and deal with non-proliferation and deal with the problems of terrorism and these new weapons of mass destruction. Look, we’re gonna face some serious new challenges in the next four years.”
Now, if Romney had said that terrorism hadn’t been mentioned in the 2000 debates by George W. Bush or Dick Cheney, he’d be right.
Sorry, Mitt. Your point about terrorism is more like errorism.

‘Follow a Leader’: A Christian anthem endorsing Rick Perry for President (For the heads up, thanks to Jack Boyer; For a related video, click here http://christiannightmares.tumblr.com/post/8937937863/another-george-w-bush-presidential-candidate)
Mitt Romney Is Presidential, Electable, HuffPost-Patch GOP Power Outsiders Say: I love this feature we do with primary/caucus state influentials. Our influentials like Romney’s chances against Obama and they think he’d make a good president. But you can see that big RINO accusation hovering at the middle everything.
If you look at what they said about Perry, the choice looks like what you thought it was: Too much TEXAN or too much RINO.
What do you guys think of when you think of Mitt?

wow guys after following that debate, thats it, I am now a republican. something about the ability to say anything I want without any consequence of science, truth, reason, logic, or research is really starting to appeal to me.
(highlights were all to rick perry, a man who aside from not believing in science somehow mustered the mental power to nearly mindfuck ron paul into having a heart attack on stage)
Effectively, that would be Dubya Redux - but Perry is only playing dumb
