As usual you make the personal attack, but it was $300.00 dollars paid to a California beauty team for facial advice and consultation and for facial make-up.
In regards to addressing Romney, did you check the subject of the thread and photos on this thread? Romney’s appearance is a topic here.
“>Well, “communications consulting” is how presidential candidate Mitt Romney recorded $300 in payments to a California company that describes itself as “a mobile beauty team for hair, makeup and men’s grooming and spa services.”
Romney spokesman Kevin Madden confirmed that the payments — actually two separate $150 charges — were for makeup, though he said the former Massachusetts governor had only one session with Hidden Beauty of West Hills, Calif. That was before the May 3 Republican presidential debate at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, Calif., co-sponsored by MSNBC and The Politico.”<
“possibly trying to minimize the Republican bloodbath at the polls, possibly setting himself up for 2012.”
McCain may not live to 2012.
“a mobile beauty team for hair, makeup and men’s grooming and spa services.” ???
Hidden Beauty ???

Who recommended those places ??????
Mitts homosexual buddies ????
Hardly a manly pursuit for a manly POTUS
But for a Beauty Contest ???
For Mr USA ???
A Romney VP makes perfect sense.
It helps McCain in Colorado with Mormons, helps the GOP in Michigan where Romney grew up, and will commit the Democrats to spending resources in Massachusetts.
Romney is a liberal BS artist.
Although he longed to serve in Vietnam, it is possible that he would not have been able to get through basic training.
>”Despite the school’s rarefied air, it was still a high school, so the jocks tended to be the most popular. Mitt’s singular distinction as an athlete was an embarrassing one, classmates recall. He competed in a 2.5-mile race held during a football game, setting off with the rest of the runners at the start of halftime.
Everyone returned before the second half of the football game began, except Mitt. He didn’t resurface until about 10 minutes after the last runner. He staggered around the oval for the final lap, collapsing twice in the last 15 yards but drawing cheers from the crowd when he finally crossed the finish line. ‘’It had to be one of those moments that made you feel good, but inadequate,’’ Bailey says.”<
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I was running the 1 1/2 mile in 9 minutes in Boot Camp...
I use to beat several of the guys...
Sure wish Romney had been there...
ROFLMBO
Although he longed to serve in Vietnam

Ahhhhhhhhh no....
Romney never “longed” to serve in Vietnam...
He was like Bill Clinton...
He “loathed” the military...
Skated off to Europe...to Paris and other places...
I see the Romney bashing morons are back.
“Romney never “longed” to serve in Vietnam...”
You are thinking of the real Mitt Romney, it was the campaign 08 Romney that “longed in many respects to actually be in Vietnam “.
Desire to serve in Vietnam
“I was not planning on signing up for the military. It was not my desire to go off and serve in Vietnam...”
Boston Herald, 5/2/94
“I longed in many respects to actually be in Vietnam and be representing our country there and in some ways it was frustrating not to feel like I was there as part of the troops that were fighting in Vietnam.”
Boston Globe, 6/24/07
Thanks.
I think this all runs in the larger "family" so to speak. Consider Romney's Mormon peers in Salt Lake City. Forbes lists Salt Lake City as the vainest city in the country. To quote Forbes: "It's surprising but true: There are at least 45 plastic surgeons practicing in Salt Lake City, or six per 100,000 people. This high number could be attributed to the University of Utah's School of Medicine, which offers residencies in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Spending habits: Locals also spend more on cosmetics purchases at the grocery store than their peers in cities of similar size, according to Information Resources, a research company that tracks cosmetics and toiletries sales. In the last year, residents spent $2,207,450 worth on hair coloring, $116,478 on hair growth products, $2,512,081 on facial cosmetics and $4,416,067 on skin care products. In Oklahoma City, which has a slightly larger population, shoppers spent $172,080 on hair coloring, $9,323 on hair growth products, $190,820 on facial cosmetics and $402,956 on skin care products."

One of the most bizarre political revelations of my life, was to learn of the obsession that the Romney followers here had with the physical appearance of the Romney family.
Throughout the primary they would hold that up as the top reason to support Mitt, ‘Look at them and their glorious extended family! Aren’t they so white and Mormon looking?’ seemed to be what they were saying, and it was a powerful motivator to his devotees.
Not only would they flood us with the Romney family pictures, but they also would post pictures of other candidates that I suppose we were to see as less physically attractive, it was very bizarre and cult like.
"I felt the earth - move - under my feet..."
Quit talking about my love-life!
Maybe; but look at our fruits!

Two utter boobs. What a shameful disaster.
That has to be the most stupid remark you ever made.
You obviously have a reading problem. This has been covered that the error was not Romney, but the firm that hired them. This is happening all over the Country and until laws are passed and enforced requiring the hiring companies to verify it will never stop. You need to get a life and read a little. It is obvious you are still a Romney hater. Enjoy yourself.
