The Romneys' horse, Rafalca, will compete, however, performing to music personally selected by the Republican presidential candidate.

o mitt

awesome, the horse is going to perform to Metal Machine Music

isn't Rafalca the name of the Metallica-Lou collab?

the full, unedited romney quote is actually

I have to tell you. This is Ann’s sport. I’m not even sure which day the sport goes on. She will get the chance to see it, I will not be watching the event. I hope her horse does well. But dressage as a sport has really declined since the halcyon days when Rubinstein, the legendary stallion of yore, roamed the meadows. Where dressage was once noble, now it has descended to the reach of commoners like yourself. I have issued a memo, directed at Ann, to notify her of my disdain, but she persists in disobeying me. I am so riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

lolll

England is just a small island. Its roads and houses are small. With few exceptions, it doesn't make things that people in the rest of the world want to buy. And if it hadn't been separated from the continent by water, it almost certainly would have been lost to Hitler's ambitions.

"Mitt Romney wants to know whether we're ready! Are we ready?" -Boris Johnson asks crowd in Hyde Park http://bbc.in/MMjOla #RomneyShambles

haha idk why but this reminds me of gisele shit-talking the patriots

you have to admire the british joy in just straight up ragging on a guy

mitt should go to parliament and they can do their yelling and whistling think at him

prob time to sic those 28 Days Later zombies on Mittens

Mitt really does sound like a Fred Willard character... and his first name IS Willard!

ZS your Romney quote post is all fucking time

stating the obvious but its amazing how the whole point of this trip was to demonstrate mitts statesman bona fides and he fucked it up immediately

like its not like he was doing something else and he made an offhanded gaffe, his gaffe directly contradicted the thing he was trying to do

Pffff Mitt's Olympics couldn't even rustle up one crazy anti-abortion bomber like Atlanta did. You call that planning?

i think this kind of sums it up.

"Mitt Romney is perhaps the only politician who could start a trip that was supposed to be a charm offensive by being utterly devoid of charm and mildly offensive."

yeah, as much as i complain about obama, i can't imagine him messing up on romney's scale. i mean it only took him about 25 minutes to piss off the whole country, new record

England (sic)

lol @ republicans on #romneyshambles

Kevin Eder ‏@keder
Gosh, it's almost like Mitt said his economic plan worked when it didn't or told small biz owners "you didn't build that." #RomneyShambles

"Worse than Sarah Palin"? So the British need to drudge up a tired and debunked meme about Palin's intelligence? #RomneyShambles

Possibly inconvenient whenever Republicans express their contempt for Obama's supposed self-regard:

London can't even keep children from tearing their city apart and now they're testy that Romney has concerns about Olympics? #RomneyShambles

'not messing up' is not a good thing when yer trying to do bad shit

romney at auschwitz: 'i believe in setting job creators free to create jobs, because arbeit macht frei'

'hey how many pollacks does it take to screw in a lightbulb but srsly folks'

ok the pin with the heart in Mitt's dimple wtf

Dana Houle ‏@DanaHoule
Mitt really needs to avoid saying "I'm not Polish, but some of my best friends have occupied Poland."

Hey, you know who ELSE thought that if it wasn't for the English Channel, Hitler would have conquered England?

lol

Salt Lake City was a Winter Olympics, right? Baseball glove an odd choice of symbol.

dude his name is mitt

shouldve gone with a mitten

Good news: The Romney dinner in London on Thursday, July 26th is reaching an all time record for a one event fundraiser. In order to get us over the top, we have been allowed to invite a few last minute guests at 10,000 per ticket vs 25,000 per ticket.”

i'm sure the people who paid the full $25K to have dinner with an asshole are really happy about this

Missed that...Mitt's playing three-dimensional chess on me.

The Left thinks that London's commie mayor carrying water for his comrade Obama is somehow a good thing! #RomneyShambles #tcot

looooooool

I'm still doing this

O_O

at how Romney said "Oh, I met the head of MI6 in there!" after his meeting at Downing Street.

Re the Romneyshambles, he is obviously utter chum in our satire-piranha filled waters. I'll be surprised if he gets out of London in one piece TBH.
