1. Ha!

I couldn't find any pics of firefighters with Rudy and Mitt.

This is my favorite pic from the photo op...

2. There is a wonderful Russian actor living in NY, wonder if that's him. The man was not impressed.

3. Great picture!

[MADem]

5. Ha ha ha! They should put that pic in the dictionary under, oh, disdain? nt

[Katie]

19. LOL! Just about how everyone in New York feels about Romney

"Please leave and don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out!"

[JackInGreen]

4. My first thought was

'How very like an out of touch boss....the corperate exec that thinks a pizza party is due compensation for blood and sacrifice'.....Mittens, go jump in a lake.

[MADem]

6. My first thought was "Firemen don't need pizza."

They're some of the best damn cooks in the country. They pride themselves on it. NY has a huge Fire House cook off every year, and the entries aren't crappy take-out pizza, either:

21. Oh I know it

Grew up with family friends that were firefighters...most of the good stuff was way too spicy for me when I first knew them.

23. He shoulda brought donuts to the local precinct house, instead!

That might have gone over a bit better!!

10. That's what they do at my workplace now. Half the time, it isn't even pizza.

They bring cookies for all three shifts during the day so the PM and NOC shifts get a little card and crumbs. That's what we get for Nurses' Week. This year, we can PAY to nominate a nurse for an honor award. We have to PAY THE hospital to nominate worthy recipients. Our CEO is a big time Republican supporter.

7. Mittens flies his money half way around the world

to avoid having it taxed.

[JHB]

8. Bet he was a lousy tipper too.

When I delivered pizza back in college, you know who tipped best?

Firemen

And carpenters and plumbers, guys with a truck full of tools and equipment in their driveway. in the decent but far from rich neighborhoods.


You know who tipped worst?

Rich brats left money by their parents who went out for the evening, in the mansion-grade neighborhood.

Guess which Mitt resembles?

[all american girl]

11. When I use to wait tables, the people with the most money were the worst to wait on

and terrible tippers....the people who rode bikes and worked with their hand were the best. Mitt and Anne remind me way too much of the jerks that would make my shift difficult.

9. I'll bet those pies were leftovers from...

the Herman Cain campaign!

[siligut]

12. Cool vs. Tool! I hope it catches on because it really is so true. nt

[moodforaday]

13. Yeah, waging an imperial war in an impoverished, torn-up country

is cool, as long as Obama does it. Have any more where that came from?

Shame.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

14. Caviar is in smaller packages

[Initech]

15. His other half is really not his better half.

In the city that never sleeps - he's in bed before 9:00.

He's going to party like it's 1925.

At a funeral he's often mistaken for the corpse in the room.

He uses an instructional children's video to tell him how to safely browse the internet.

His personal horror was having to sell off some of his rich father's stock.

He can speak Spanish.... in Spanish.

He is.... Mitt Romney - the LEAST interesting man in the world!!!

"I tried beer once as a wayward teenager - those were my wild years."

Stay boring my friends.

[MADem]

24. I gotta give that effort a little love!!!

[Initech]

26. I'm having way too much fun with this one.

[Bjorn Against]

16. Sorry, but Tool is one of the greatest rock bands of my generation

Your headline made me think of the band and I was very disappointed to see Romney's face, I am going to scrub that image from my mind and watch a much better Tool.

[KansDem]

17. Was this Mitt's "Dukakis in the tank" moment?

[Bjorn Against]

18. I am afraid Romney passed up Dukakis for worst photo op some time ago..

I wish I could say that was a photoshop, but sadly it is real.

[PatrynXX]

20. Used to be a slam dunk that republicans got the military vote

I doubt this helps... Love the troops moral booster though

[malthaussen]

22. Reminds me of General Mark Clark

Old scandal: Clark had a photo op at Anzio with a grunt, where he was supposedly sharing a "D" ration (a really, really awful rat bar) with a grunt. After the pic was taken, he gave the D-bar to the soldier and said, "Here, soldier, you eat this." It caused a mini-uproar at the time.

I sometimes sincerely wonder if Mittens is not mentally ill. Does he not know that his every move is on camera, that his every word is recorded? He seems to live only in the present moment, with no idea of consequences.

25. I think you're on to something, here!

Does he not know that his every move is on camera, that his every word is recorded? He seems to live only in the present moment, with no idea of consequences.

You're quite right, there's ample proof that he does have this odd idea that he can just say ANYTHING. He seems bizarrely affronted (over and over again) when people actually notice that he contradicts himself!
