Mitt Romney Won't Stop Talking About Michigan Trees
Reuters ^ | 2/25/12 | Brent Lang

Posted on 02/25/2012 6:17:43 AM PST by jimbo123

The Republican presidential aspirant was at it again on Friday, praising the greenery of his birth state in advance of next week's primary.

"This feels good, being back in Michigan,” Romney said during a speech in Detroit. “The trees are the right height. The streets are just right.”

The latest bout of rhapsodizing almost perfectly echoes Romney’s earlier comments about the size of the Great Lake state’s timber earlier this week.

He’s a lumberjack and he’s OK.

Wow! Just as I was reading your post this Monty Python sketch was playing on TV!

IFC channel, Monty Python at the Hollywood Bowl, 1982.

It just ended. 3 Stooges on now. Snitchin' Time.

Nice work! I remember Huckabee saying that in the 2008 primaries about Romney looking like the guy who fired you.

Do you photoshop? I think this particular topic about the trees calls for a nice Mitt Romney “Tree Hugging” photo.

It is so true how he inspires no one - except for that minority 30 some percent who can’t get past their infactuations.

You know if this guy were the nominee that we would be seeing the pics showing the Saboteur of 1600 with his full-stadium (rom back in 2008) versus Mitt’s Ford Field debacle.

He is their absoulte, unequivical, unMitigated DREAM candidate.

Actually, we are the one’s who are too shallow and ignorant to understand where he’s coming from.

Mitt’s not looking at this the way you or I would look at trees. In his mind he’s probably thinking how -HE- will creat them when he’s a god over his OWN planet.

Cheers.

Is anybody else growing tired of hearing the term “double down” with regard to politics?

Come on now, you can't blame Mitt Romney for wanting to get in touch with his roots.

I don’t get it. What’s wrong with mentioning the nice trees in Michigan? According to the article he’s mentioned Michigan trees twice this year, once in 2008 and once in 2011. BIG DEAL ALREADY! Sheesh....

Even the Cadillacs are right - both of them.

In his own way, Romney is as out of touch with the average American as Obama.

By the way, Mittens wants to raise the age to receive Medicare above 65. Even if we HAVE to do that, which I doubt, NOW is the WRONG time to say that. He’s such an idiot.
