Mitt Romney And The Hand-Up For The 1%
Making news today on the Internets and social media sites is this introduction at a recent fundraiser of Mitt Romney by Bill Marriott, hotel and food empire mogul:
"Both Mitt and I have summer places up in New Hampshire on Lake Winnipesaukee. And a few summers ago I was taking my grandchildren and children to town in the boat for ice cream. And we got into the docks and they were all full and I looked around, there was no place to park, so we stopped at the end of a dock. They all jumped off and ran up the dock. And I realized there was nobody in the boat to help me dock the boat, handle the ropes, do anything -- they just left me out there at sea. So I finally found a place to park after about 20 minutes, and I pulled in, I said, 'Who's going to grab the rope?,' and I looked up and there was Mitt Romney. So he pulled me in, he tied up the boat for me. He rescued me just as he's going to rescue this great country."

Such a delicious little story. It will require several posts to cover the material appropriately.
Mitt Romney: "Helping" the country out of its lifeboats, one hand-jerk at a time.
An anecdote simultaneously heart-warming and nauseating.
Bill Marriott desperately needs some new children and grandchildren.
Proving the Gatsbyism that "The rich are different from you and I."
Yeah, they don't have a clue how clueless they are.
Who is going to these fundraisers and getting all of this great material? Or is it being slipped out the back door via bus boy and wait staff?
Just wonderin' . . . .
What a heart-warming story...and this qualifies him for the presidency how exactly?
of course romney would help marriott- he's from his pier group.
Where was Gilligan when the Skipper needed help?
