Mitt Romney Doesn't Understand Why Airplane Windows Don't Open (not PN)

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." -- William Casey, Reagan's presidential campaign manager & CIA Director (from first staff meeting in 1981)
Quote:Mitt Romney, a 65-year-old man with two advanced degrees, has no idea why they don't let you open airplane windows mid-flight, according to his own remarks at a fund-raiser in Beverly Hills on Saturday: Romney’s wife, Ann, was in attendance, and the candidate spoke of the concern he had for her when her plane had to make an emergency landing Friday en route to Santa Monica because of an electrical malfunction. “I appreciate the fact that she is on the ground, safe and sound. And I don’t think she knows just how worried some of us were,” Romney said. “When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly, there’s no — and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem." To answer Romney: Airplane cabins are pressurized to allow people to, you know, breathe and stay conscious and such at high altitudes — things that are important for everyone who isn't an advanced robot covered in a highly convincing outer layer of humanesque skin and facial features.

No, it really won't, since the Challenger 600 (the type of plane Ann was on, but don't go checking before shooting your mouth off, Troll) doesn't have opening cockpit windows, either. Darn facts, spoiling your little tantrum! Do you need a Waaaaaaambulance? Do you want to show us your Ann Romney impersonation? "Just stop! This is hard!"

As sure as you are that Obama was the driving force behind Fast-n-Furious as a plan to take all your precious guns away. ;)
Quote: You completely ignore the obvious conclusion that this was a sarcastic comment spoken in jest.
Quote:And you completely ignore the Dhimmicratic messiah's kowtowing to islamic states at the UN yesterday. Typical.

They are compelled to make fun of Mitt Romney because his wife could have died in a plane crash.
Quote: In fact, I suspect at least one or two of them wish she HAD died. They'd say it serves him right for hating gays or not believing in global warming, or for being Morman or whatever.
Quote: Now me, I'm glad she's ok. Let's leave it at that and get back to talking about the President's record on jobs...er...debt...no...foriegn policy...umm...lets forget the record and find a safe topic for the President to come down on the wrong side of...oh, NFL refs, that's a safe topic for liberals.
