Mitt Romney 2012: Somehow Even More Fake Than Before
Mitt Romney 2012 has apparently begun.
Republican Mitt Romney is laying the groundwork for a possible White House campaign in 2012, hiring a team of staff members and consultants…
Where is he getting the money to pay for this “team of staff members and consultants” you ask?
Well..
with money from a fund-raising committee he established with the ostensible purpose of supporting other GOP candidates.
The former Massachusetts governor has raised $2.1 million for his Free and Strong America political action committee. But only 12 percent of the money has been spent distributing checks to Romney’s fellow Republicans around the country.
Instead, the largest chunk of the money has gone to support Romney’s political ambitions, paying for salaries and consulting fees to over a half-dozen of Romney’s longtime political aides, according to a Globe review of expenditures.
Wow, I’m absolutely shocked that the fakest presidential candidate in the history of the world was, well, faking it when he said that his Political Action Committee was all about raising money for other candidates who weren’t Mitt Romney (though I did find that email he sent me a few weeks back asking for money for Ritt Momney for Mittsident a little odd).
I mean, just go to MittRomney.com. Looks like it’s all about this “Free and Strong America PAC” thingy eh? Well, try clicking on the very prominent “Continue to MittRomney.com” link. What do you get? Bam! Mitt Romney for President!
Nice cover Mittens.
If I were one of those donors I’d be pissed and ask for my money back. I’d also register MittRomney2012.com right now and then demand 10 Billion dollars for it from Mitt.
Oops. Looks like somebody already did that. Oh shit, was it Mitt?
