Catch of the day: Romney's latest verbal atrocity


Much of what I share here is second-hand or more, but this telling moment in republiCON history I heard with my own ears on radio news this morning, then verified online:

Romney promises end of health care law

So far so good, but get what "end" means in Obomney's own words, which I heard him speak -- maybe you did too. Emphasis mine:

"If the court upholds it ... it is still bad policy and that means that if I'm elected we are going to repeal it and replace it," Romney said this afternoon at a rally in Sterling, Va.

It would be lovely if what he meant was "replace it with a reiteration of the Ninth and Tenth Amendments", but wouldn't you guess it's something more like "replace it with an identical clone" as in ":replacing" a tire or fan belt? He did not give any details as to what form his replacement plan would take, the account adds. Everybody gets absent-minded sometimes!

HEY, at least we'll be getting rid of Obama. That's supposed to cheer you up.
