(19,458 posts)From the story: <<"Indeed, Romney at times found himself adjusting his prepared remarks - with its typically business-oriented language - for his audience and sounded like an like an instructor explaining policy. Once he noted the slow growth of the GDP, the Gross Domestic Product, only to quickly adjust by adding "the economy." >>>
"adjusted his language??" WTF?? This is a convention of accomplished and intelligent people, they fucking KNOW what the GDP is?? What the article smoothed over is that he was TALKING DOWN to them, as if they didn't understand wtf it was. Romney is so out of touch... The people I see in the photos here look like intelligent, and thoughtful people who don't need someone to "change their business language" so they'll understand. "GDP" is not a business term... it's an economic term.
Surprised the dipshit and his useless crew didn't bring a rapper to interpret.
