Like Father Like Son

Unread post by mama »

STERLING, Va — Mitt Romney’s eldest son Tagg Romney said that the sometimes heated moments during the campaign make him want to “take a swing” at President Obama.

Guess he inherited his father's temper honestly. :D

We don't need a president who opens is mouth without thinking of the consequences. :cry:

Tagg is young, he has time to mellow, not so much for Romney. Obama's calmness is mistaken at times for arrogance, but I prefer a calm and well thought process before that red button is mashed!

In an interview with Good Housekeeping Ann Romney stated that Mitt has been working on his temper for some time. Like father, like son.

I find their candid remarks refreshing. that they will admit to being human is just something else we'll have to get used to if romney is elected.

We do not punish people in this country for things they would like to do. But, it seems Democrats will scorn honesty.

Hmmm...let's see. The father of our current POTUS is a dead beat Dad but there doesn't seem to be any concern that our POTUS exhibits, or has exhibited, dead beat dad tendacies.

Although not tied directly to Obama or his family/immediate friends, death threats have and are being made against Romney. Where's the rage?

I would hope that any parent would admonish their child that said they wanted to "take a swing" at the President of the United States. If they don't they are just promoting disrespect. But then look who we are talking about - the man that told the President to be quiet and he would get his turn....

Tagg is from a family where they see themselves as above rules... At this last debate.. it took Rmoney less than 5 minutes to break the rules he agreed to..

The First Lady doesn't think she needs to obey the rules, either.

Yea... but then Michelle wasn't a participant.. was she.. .

Looks like she and most of the audience delighted in seeing Rmoney have one of his premium lies shoved up his ascot.. .. 8-)

About as petty as the Obama campaign trying to make an issue of the "binder". The dems are desperate if this is all they have. Anybody who thinks this was a slam against women is an order of fries short of a happy meal. Any excecutive who needs to make a choice wants a summary of options. Do any of our brilliant lib friends know what process Obama used to fill his key positions? Did he have a binder for "Communists" that included Van Jones?

If this isn't a sign of the deepest desperation I have no idea what is.
If a women doesn't now that a binder is used to hold names and folders and even resumes they are to dumb to vote. :roll: Which is exactly what he was talking of.

The lib desperation is getting pretty bad.


Like Father Like Sons. Pay attention.

Did Obama serve?

Whoosh. Was Obama a hawk encouraging others to kill and die at the same time he was dodging service like Mitten did?

Does sending Ambassadors to foreign countries and deny proper forces to protect them count?

We know his father did Obama said so. :lol:
His prime father figure did, unlike Mitt, the father of Tagg.
