Pot, Meet Kettle


The Rethug candidates for President were having some kind of fun in yesterday's debate. As they were trying to distance themselves from Preznit Dumbya, they were uncorking some yukkers at Democrats for their base. One of our favorites was this one from Willard Mousse/Mutt/Mitt Romney:

"...in one week (Obama) went from saying he's going to sit down...with our enemies, but then he's going to bomb our allies. He's gone from Jane Fonda to Dr. Strangelove in one week."

See any irony? Obama changing his position! That's probably not the best shot for Willard 3M Romney, who hasn't been the poster boy for consistency of positions on women's rights, gun control, gay marriage, etc. etc. The Mittster is the weathervane of American politics, turning whichever way the wind blows, saying what he needs to say to stay on the good side of the far right wing base.

Bonus irony: Willard 3M Romney's book is entitled "Turnaround." And around, and around, and around, as many times as it takes to win elections.
