Mitt Romney finally admits what's really bothering him

by Jed Lewison

About four minutes into his interview this morning with CBS's Gayle King and Anthony Mason, Mitt Romney finally admitted what's really bothering him about the 2012 campaign:

The president's campaign has put out a campaign that's talking about me and attacking me. I think it's just demeaning to the nature of the process, particularly when we face the kinds of challenges we face.

Boo hoo, poor Mitt, pissed off that his opponent would dare talk about him. How rude. Doesn't Obamaland know that you're not allowed to criticize Cranbrook's finest graduate? Don't they realize that if you're not telling Mr. Bain that he's God's gift to the American economy that you've crossed a line?

What a whiney little glass-jawed brat.

...Oh, and the Obama campaign isn't just about attacking Mitt Romney. They are also talking about the president's accomplishments. Like killing bin Laden. And saving the auto industry. Which Mitt took credit for.

1. What a hypocrite!

The entire Romney campaign is based on lying about Obama. And he complains that he's getting attacked? Does he hope to get votes out of sympathy? Pathetic!

You're running for president Mitt. We're not just going to hand you the country because you think you deserve it without scrutiny.

[Scuba]

2. Mitty, we'd talk about Bush/Cheney but that is so 2000.

[mainstreetonce]

4. Swiftboat him

Let him see how it really feels.

[HubertHeaver]

12. We can't Swiftboat him.

Swiftboating involves telling lies about the target.

[mac56]

6. Now THAT is a Duzy!

[Lucy Goosey]

3. Poor, poor little Mittens

Seriously, what did he expect? That the Democrats would bow down and concede?

If he can't handle people talking about him, he REALLY shouldn't be President. He should go back to being a CEO if he needs people to suck up to him and kiss his feet or whatever. Wimp, indeed.

[HubertHeaver]

5. That picture on the Newsweek cover under the line

"What triggers mass murderers."

Yeah, that would do it.

[Amonester]

25. Yep. Like creating new divisions in order to conquer for more personal gain.

Like that new "under-55 / 55-or-more" division they want to implement on their way to trashing Medicare.

Make unstable gun-owning nuts ENVY the retirees to the point of

Very telling (sad and tragic).

7. The reclusive Greta Garbo, who just wanted to be left alone, never ran for public office

Mitt Romney going Greta Garbo on us makes me wonder about his sanity even more than I did before. If he wants to be left alone, he's picked the wrong profession.

[reformist2]

8. He wants us to trust him that he paid the "right amount" of taxes...

Sorry, Mitt, it don't work that way in the big leagues. Put up or quit your whining - you deserve all the heckling you're getting.

[Berlum]

9. Whine much, Willard? This whiney crap is sooooo Republican

They fling their poo all over the place, then whine pathetically when a little of the poo gets on their $800 lily-white linen Bill Blass designer 1% shirt, and splatters their $3,000 Gucci loafers...it's tuff being a 1%er.

[gkhouston]

30. So *that's* what Gucci loafers look like. Damn, they're fugly. n/t

[Berlum]

31. Well, he probably wears $5K Bruno Maglis as well, like O.J.

It's fun being a 1% Tosser Twit, they say.

[lonestarnot]

10. What doesn't he get about "public person?" Asshats don't get much.

[gollygee]

11. Just to remind you Mitt, you're RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT

Uhm yeah, you're under a microscope. Welcome to politics. Where are your tax returns?

[cleduc]

13. Shine a light on a cockroach ...

and watch them scurry for cover.

[ann---]

14. OMG!

All those TEETH - pair that with Ann's and those kids must be toothsome! yikes!

[KurtNYC]

15. Mitt, you can dish it out but you can't take it.

That will get you no respect.

[ProSense]

17. Yup! n/t

[JoePhilly]

16. Romney: "Mom, Barack is being MEAN to me!!!!

[Buns_of_Fire]

20. "Mommy, he's looking at me again!"

*sigh* "Stop looking at him, Paul..."

[JoePhilly]

21. "I'm not touching him" ... (with my finger 1/2 an inch from his eyeball)

[Care Acutely]

18. That cover is outstanding! n/t

[hifiguy]

19. Running for the presidency is a full-contact sport.

This coddled, arrogant shitheel, who has never had anything said to him but "yes, boss, you're so right boss, brilliant, boss" is getting a taste of bare-knuckle real world politics.

He's lucky he's running against the gentlemanly Obama. LBJ would have pounded him into a pile of mulch on the LBJ Ranch by now and had his (non-dancing) horses poop on the pile.

[lunatica]

24. That LBJ visual is delightful!

[GoCubsGo]

22. I thought it was a piece from The Onion at first.

How the hell can someone who is running for President of the United States think that his opponent was not going to talk about him or attack him? In what fucking universe does this guy live?

[Amonester]

29. In a glass house full of shiny crystals and sparkling gold!

Waiting for the "you people" crowd to revere him down on their knees at his feet like it ever was!

[lunatica]

23. But it's OK to say Obama is 'not like us' or an Anglo-Saxon

sharing whatever culture Anglo-Saxons share that's so special.

He's fucking delusional.

[greatauntoftriplets]

26. "Mommy!!!!!!!!1111 That mean black guy is picking on me!!!!!!!!1111"

What a wimp. Newsweek is on the money.

[liberal N proud]

27. Flashback - Romney Road Trip

Dad and mom Romney driving down the road, dog tied to the roof (Mittens had to learn that somewhere), and Mittens and Sox (his sister) are sitting in the backseat.

Mommy, she is picking on me! Sox is a meany!

[pnwmom]

28. Look, when he dies, he's going to be set up as a god on his very own planet.

So he needs to be President of the United States here, AT LEAST, in order to get practice.

Don't we understand that?

Why are we talking about him? Why are we attacking him? He's the future god of a planet. That's all we need to know.

If ever there was a religion designed to appeal to a man's worst narcissism . . . .
