| Yo Quiero Mi Dinero? |
The media, for lack of better things to do, seem to constantly be nipping at Mitt Romney’s heels about how wealthy he is. But for all their efforts to make him look like a rich fat cat, the best they’ve been able to accomplish is to provide Romney a platform on which to flaunt his financial success.
“My God,” said Romney at a $10,000 a plate dinner in Boca Raton, Florida, “If that money wasn’t going to me, it would just end up in someone else’s pocket. I’m just not getting what the big deal is. I’m rich, get over it,” he said to a cheering audience.
“He’s sending the right message,” said Thornton Bancroll, one of the richest donors to Romney’s cause.
“Seriously, tonight Mr. Romney asked a damned good rhetorical question. He said ‘Wouldn’t giving up my wealth be an insult to every person in this room?’ and no one here tonight could argue against that kind of logic.
Romney says he isn’t bitter at the press, and in fact, he welcomes the dialogue about money. “At least when they are talking about how filthy rich I am, they aren’t digging up more of my ancestral roots. I mean, really, Mexican? Who saw that coming?”
In other words, he who is without sin, or, better yet, several multi-millions safely stashed in a variety of off shore accounts, and, of course, as always, a shoebox full of twenties back at the hotel room, just in case of an all of sudden, got to start handing them around emergency, of sorts, well, cast whatever the hell you want, cause, what the hey, I'm sitting pretty, and, from where that is, you ain't. So, all's good despite any of your endless, over wrought claims of nothing but the contrary, concerning me. As opposed to thee. Which sounds like hee-hee And rhymes with wee-wee. Pardon my almost, but not quite French. And, oh yeah, I approve this message, even if you don't, so there.
