who cares? they all do this - keep their heads down and mouth the party line, then shit on the party when they leave - its boring, repetitive and not even redeeming

Mitt is setting himself up as the good guy? Too little, too late, Mittens. It has been clear that the Repub party has been turning into an unethical, vicious cult for years and we didn't hear a peep out of you denouncing them. You're one of them, buddy. You're just an especially hypocritical one.

Bitchy Mitt is best Mitt. He seems like a man who enjoys the meat of hot dog while shit talking coworkers and drinking caffeine free Diet Coke.

"A caricature of a for-profit preacher" is absolutely spot on.

60+ fella here, and if we hadn't inherited her grandmom's silver, we wouldn't have any either.

RICK PERRY: “Republicans must realize that we have to have someone who can complete a sentence.”

Mitt Romney must realize that completing sentences is for RINOs.

Funny, but isn't that same betch that begged the orange penis for a job?

When he's not sucking up to him for a job he's mildly critical of him in private.

He is vast, he contains multitudes.

Absolutely, but he's on his way out, so fuck kissing any rings. Too little too late, for sure, but I'm enjoying his exit speech anyway.

There's tacky and there's "Gold colored silverware" tacky.

Willing to bet that were the truth known, Romney is probably richer (or, at minimum, as rich) as trump. Not that I really give a rat's ass about that, but I sure as hell know an orange someone who does.

Not only that, but Mittens has SOME idea of how to behave, how to mimic a civilized person in a civilized society, pernicious parasite that he is.

for sure he is.

Romney has had a (small) handful of good deeds to his record, at least. That's like 5 times the number for some of his colleagues. You may need to add a few together when it comes to the particularly crazy contingent

"_When_ I drop [Melania]"? Gluteus Maximus Maximus is all class, but we knew that already.

I'm a little -- more than a little! -- surprised he's breaking out the flamethrower *now*, when he's still going to be in the Senate for another year and change, and will have to continue to work with these jagoffs til then. Usually, you don't burn the bridges until you're actually walking out the door.

“Trump sidled up to Romney’s son Josh and pointed at a leggy brunette across the room. ‘Have you seen my girlfriend, Melania?’ he asked, smirking. ‘When I drop her, the phone is gonna ring off the hook. Every guy in New York wants to go out with her[.]’”

"Hey there, youngster. Do you like school? Have you seen my wife, the chippy? Look at the set of tits on her! Isn't she a wild piece of ass?"

Exactly what we all expected from this classless pig.

It's like he looked at Louis XIV's style and thought "how can I do this as cheaply and badly as possible?"

As much as I enjoy snark -- hearing it, reading it, creating it -- I remain mostly unbeguiled by Mitt's belated epiphany.

This is the guy who, when he was a candidate, MAD Magazine ran a regular feature, "Who Said It -- Mitt Romney or Mr. Burns?", and you actually *couldn't* tell. He's always been a vulture capitalist and out-of-touch, dickish aristocrat.

All that having been said, compared to the current fascisti du jour, he's fuckin' Gandhi.
