The purpose of the Republican convention is to introduce America to the real Mitt Romney. Fortunately, I have spent hours researching this subject. I can provide you with the definitive biography and a unique look into the Byronic soul of the Republican nominee:
Mitt Romney was born on March 12, 1947, in Ohio, Florida, Michigan, Virginia and several other swing states. He emerged, hair first, believing in America, and especially its national parks. He was given the name Mitt, after the Roman god of mutual funds, and launched into the world with the lofty expectation that he would someday become the Arrow shirt man.
Romney was a precocious and gifted child. He uttered his first words (“I like to fire people”) at age 14 months, made his first gaffe at 15 months and purchased his first nursery school at 24 months. The school, highly leveraged, went under, but Romney made 24 million Jujubes on the deal.
Mitt grew up in a modest family. His father had an auto body shop called the American Motors Corporation, and his mother owned a small piece of land, Brazil. He had several boyhood friends, many of whom owned Nascar franchises, and excelled at school, where his fourth-grade project, “Inspiring Actuaries I Have Known,” was widely admired. After his mission, he attended Harvard, studying business, law, classics and philosophy, though intellectually his first love was always tax avoidance. After Harvard, he took his jawline to Bain Consulting, a firm with very smart people with excessive personal hygiene. While at Bain, he helped rescue many outstanding companies, like Pan Am, Eastern Airlines, Atari and DeLorean.

When you think it’s about love, it’s generally really about the money.
Mitt would make a good Arrow shirt guy.
No, thanks!
Do the Dowds and Brookses not understand that were a mere model for the "Arrow" shirt company running against the current golfing attire candidate that the Bill of Rights provisions which protect their industry's freedoms would be more secure?
Unless, of course, he would prefer employment in a new and official American version of "Pravda"? Ooops, that's where he works now, isn't it?
What a waste of time and ink!
David Brooks has had a man-crush on Zero since the days Barry was running in 2008. PBS still claims he is the conservative alternative to Mark Shields. The Shields and Brooks segment of the PBS News Hour is a joke.
Brooks consistently goes to the left of Shields. It is funny to see Shields’ expression. He knows he is supposed to be to the left of Brooks but sometimes it is just not possible.
Brooks is a complete phony and in love with Obama and the liberal’s intellectual viewpoints. Complete fraud.
Under David’s theory, which is apparently that only persons born into families of modest means should run for President, Carter and Nixon would both do well while JFK and FDR would be disqualified.
Brooks makes Megan McCain and David Frum look like Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh.
