Pawlenty On Dullness Charge: ‘I’ll Show You My Tats’

Former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty took issue with the charge that he’s too dull to be Mitt Romney’s running mate.

“Now, if you goad me into it, I’ll show you my tats,” Pawlenty told Fox News. He also said he’d rather be considered “dull” than offer soaring rhetoric but empty promises, like President Obama.

The church teaches and discourages having tattoos and body piercings. Pres Hinckley gave a memorable talk to the youth and young adults of the church back in Nov. 2000. It was reprinted in the Ensign Magazine in Jan. 2001.

Here is an excerpt:

"I promise you that the time will come, if you have tattoos, that you will regret your actions. They cannot be washed off. They are permanent. Only by an expensive and painful process can they be removed. If you are tattooed, then probably for the remainder of your life you will carry it with you. I believe the time will come when it will be an embarrassment to you. Avoid it. We, as your Brethren who love you, plead with you not to become so disrespectful of the body which the Lord has given you."

"May I mention earrings and rings placed in other parts of the body. These are not manly. They are not attractive. You young men look better without them, and I believe you will feel better without them. As for the young women, you do not need to drape rings up and down your ears. One modest pair of earrings is sufficient."

10. So makes lace doilies?

[LiberalEsto]

11. I tawt I saw a puddy tat

Is that the kind of tat he's talking about?

or is he making lace?

[pinboy3niner]

12. He's offering to show his tramp stamp?

[Buns_of_Fire]

13. IS there anyone duller than rMoney?

I think they're looking at it backwards. The Little Prince's ego isn't going to allow a running mate with more personality than he has -- which is just about everyone on earth.

They can try vetting a 16-ounce can of cream of asparagus soup, but it'd still be pretty close.
