If you are still maintaining maximum enthusiasm for the TOTALLY EXCITING and VERY AWESOME and HOLY SHIT ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME THIS WILL DECIDE THE COURSE OF OUR NATION AND WE'RE STILL TALKING ABOUT BIRTH CERTIFICATES OMFG election, please check this box: □
That Guy: Romney's Birth Certificate Evokes His Father's Controversy. That controversy being that his father, who once tried to run for president, was born in Mexico. (Oh noes!) To US citizens. (Phew!) Who lived in a Mormon polygamist commune. (Um.) Never mind all that because Donald Trump says Obama is Kenyan!
This Guy: President Obama Causes Outrage with Reference to 'Polish Death Camp'. Whoooooooops! It turns out that Poles don't consider "Polish Death Camp" and "Nazi Death Camp in German-Occupied Poland" synonymous terms. Go figure. So touchy those Poles! (That is sarcasm, in case it wasn't evident.) The White House says the President "misspoke," which he certainly did but in a very inflammatory way, and I'm sure a formal apology will be forthcoming.
That Guy: Mitt Romney Wants the Biggest Military Ever, Regardless of Cost. Perfect.
Finally! Care of BuzzFeed, here's a fun screencap from Mitt Romney's new "Mittstagram" app:
Whooooooooooops that is not the correct spelling of "America." I am Queen Typo of Keyboardia, so I can sympathize, BUT on the OTHER HAND, I am pretty sure that if I were a candidate running to be PRESIDENT of a COUNTRY, I would make sure to tell the team in charge of the supercool phone app I released to show how hip I am that PRIORITY NUMBER ONE is spelling the name of that country correctly.
Talk about these things! Or don't. Whatever makes you happy. Life is short.
