Forgetting how you made your money is now Romnesia.

Because let's face it 'you didn't build that'.

After looking at the title, I thought this was going to be a about a indie horror game involving getting chased by Mitt Romney around his castle.

I agree. Romnesia sounds like a video game. Here's how the final boss encounter with Mitt would go.

    Hero: Die monster. You don’t belong in this world!

    Romney: It was not by my hand I was given the wealth of the world. It was brought to me by humans who wished it to be my tribute!

    Hero: Tribute!? You steal men's livings, and make them your slaves!

    Romney: Perhaps the same could be said of all lords…

    Hero: Your words are as empty as your soul! Mankind ill needs a president such as you!

    Romney: What is a man? A miserable little pile of horded wealth. But enough talk… Have at you!

If anyone could possibly have Multiple Personality Disorder, I think Mitt Romney would be it.

niam: LMFAO! I think someone has a little too much time on their hands :P

Multiple personalities????? No...

I think I have finally realized the reason for Romney flip-flopping constantly. This might seem a bit odd or even far fetched but I assure you that this is the only logical explanation:

THERE IS MORE THAN ONE ROMNEY!

In 1947 Lenore Romney gave birth to identical twins. Due to clerical error only one birth certificate was done but this did not matter much to the family. When it came time for the boys to go to school it was decided that they will take turns, each of them spending one day at the school and then relaying the days lessons to the other. This worked fine mostly and they continued it in their adult life.

So when you complain that "he didn't build that" you should remember that although building a thriving business all alone is impossibly but the Romney twins working together did build their enterprise without outside assistance.

Unfortunately not all is perfect and sometimes one or the other forgets to mention some details of their dealings yesterday and this is why it seems like Mitt seems to have a tendency to switch sides. SEE IT ALL MAKES SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY MAKE SO MANY LIES AND PROMISES THAT SOMETIMES IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP TRACK OF THEM!!!

Nope. When you're looking at Romney, you're seeing a man who knows EXACTLY where he is and who he's not talking to. Of course, when that changes and you still have what he said yesterday floating around...
Nah, he just wants to be president and will say whatever he has to to get there.

Schrodinger's Romney. Occupying both and neither of the positions at the same time.

This tickled me just right for some reason.

DAVIE (CBS4) – A blimp sporting a picture of Mitt Romney and the slogan “America Needs Romney” on its side was force to make an emergency landing in a Davie field Sunday evening.

Just after 7 p.m. the pilot brought the 160-foot craft down in the 9100 block of SW 36th Street, near the Robert H. Bamford Sports Complex. He and a passenger were not hurt.

At least we don't use Hydrogen anymore for them, right?
