You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Nope, what happened was that when he took office in Massachusetts, a bipartisan group of MA women came to him with a binder of women qualified for appointments, because there weren't enough women in office.

There is part of me that finds it extra entertaining that not only was his "binders full of women" comment tone-deaf, he was also trying to take credit for a woman's binder full of women.

Or, as the blog points out, that he was governor elect and didn't know any qualified women himself?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Y'all trust me, right?

I trust you not to miss.

I'll take the guns, thanks

Y'all trust me, right?

I totally trust you, but I also assume I'm in your good books.

No, that wasn't funny, that was just sad. Trying to look more pro-women by stealing credit from women, that was funny.

But to put that remark in context, the original question was "What will you do to keep AK-47s out of the hands of criminals?"

Duh--clearly they should be in the hands of ME instead. Because it was easier to shoot than the handgun, see...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

For some reason, I was trying to explain Grindr to a friend the other night, and she was just like, "....why do you know about that?" WHO KNOWS.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I am obviously biased, but man, Mittens looked positively desperate during his closing statement. There's passionate, and then there's begging. "I was a governor! I ran businesses! I WANT TO BE PRESIDENT SO BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEELECTMEPLEASE."

If this had been a movie, that would have been the moment when Mitt screamed "What do I have to say to you people to get elected!!!" and then everything would be quiet for a moment before the montage of his campaign going down in flames.
