Mitt Romney, the king of France, calls Hillary a Marxist

Mitt Romney will always have Paris — in fact all of France.

Gaul was where his Mormon missionary work earned him a free ticket out of the Vietnam War. It was where l’homme qui voulut être roi crashed two cars, once with a fatality. It’s where, in his fantasy world, marriages last only seven years. It’s France, quelle surprise, that his internal PowerPoints called a “bogeyman” to exploit.



In the video above, he bleu-blanc-et-rouge-baits Hillary Clinton and company.

He mocks Hillary’s goal of a “we’re all in it together society” thusly: “I see, out with Adam Smith, in with Karl Marx.” And he calls the Democrats’ agenda “the very policies that led Europe to their decline.”

He apparently means the policies that took the Euro from $1.07 the day of Bush’s inauguration to its lowly $1.38 today. Take that, Pierre!

Romney likens the agendas of the Republicans and founding fathers: “we would not rely on the divine right of kings, nor on their whimsical beneficence.” Yes, if there’s one thing that Republicans stand for, it’s challenging the whimsical beneficence of Our Leader.

In contradiction of Joni Mitchell, this isn’t amour, mama. But it is cheap display.

Update:

Another touch-o-class from the Mittster, as he holds up a misspelled poster that calls Barack Obama “Osama.”

Good reading! Favorite quote: What could go wrong?
Beyond war, inflation, the end of the technology/productivity wave, and financial collapse, we think the most potent and short-term threat would be societies demanding a more ‘equitable’ share of wealth.
