Disqualified

How many times and in how many ways are we going to have to prove definitively that Mitt Romney is unfit for the Presidency?

First, we all realized that he used to work for a private-equity firm (gasp). Private-equity firms, as everyone knows or at least figured out a couple weeks ago, are not ok. Not ok at all. Yes, technically it’s legal to work for one. They’re allowed to exist. I suppose. Grudgingly. But they’re just not ok things. And anyone associated with one at any time is henceforth disqualified from any role in society. (Unless they have a (D) after their name, then it’s ok)

But to add insult to injury, we have just recently learned that Mitt Romney paid the amount of taxes he was lawfully required to pay. That is just too much to bear. I was assuming, conservatively, that his tax return would show him to have paid 3x the amount, at least. Imagine my shock and horror to discover that he paid only 1x what he legally owed! Who does this guy think he is.

Just not Presidential material, that’s for sure. We Smart People have standards, and we apply them uniformly. (To (R)s)
