Mitt Romney Doesn’t Know Who Let The Dogs Out1
I don’t support Mitt Romney as a candidate in any way, but I have to hand it to him: he handled this situation with more style & finesse than I ever would have been capable of.
I’ve never seen a black person in real life, but I’ve always considered myself prepared should the occasion arise. I remember reading something in National Review that said you’re supposed to whistle a soothing tune while clutching your valuables & loved ones to your chest, and that always seemed like sage advice to me… until now, anyway.
After seeing this video of Mitt Romney actually attempting to interact with black people, I don’t even know what to think anymore. Could it be that the National Review was wrong? Is that really possible? To reverse engineer this problem, I think we need to try to understand what was going through Romney’s head at the time:
Well played, Romney. Well played.
1 Answer: It was the Baha Men. The Baha Men are the ones who let the dogs out.

Don’t believe one optimistic word from any public figure about the economy or humanity in general. They are all part of the problem. Its like a game of Monopoly. In America, the richest 1% now hold 1/2 OF ALL UNITED STATES WEALTH. Unlike ‘lesser’ estimates, this includes all stocks, bonds, cash, and material assets held by America’s richest 1%. Even that filthy pig Oprah acknowledged that it was at about 50% in 2006. Naturally, she put her own ‘humanitarian’ spin on it. Calling attention to her own ‘good will’. WHAT A DISGUSTING HYPOCRITE SLOB. THE RICHEST 1% HAVE LITERALLY MADE WORLD PROSPERITY ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE. Don’t fall for all of their ‘humanitarian’ CRAP. ITS A SHAM. THESE PEOPLE ARE CAUSING THE SAME PROBLEMS THEY PRETEND TO CARE ABOUT. Ask any professor of economics. Money does not grow on trees. The government can’t just print up more on a whim. At any given time, there is a relative limit to the wealth within ANY economy of ANY size. So when too much wealth accumulates at the top, the middle class slip further into debt and the lower class further into poverty. A similar rule applies worldwide. The world’s richest 1% now own over 40% of ALL WORLD WEALTH. This is EVEN AFTER you account for all of this ‘good will’ ‘humanitarian’ BS from celebrities and executives. ITS A SHAM. As they get richer and richer, less wealth is left circulating beneath them. This is the single greatest underlying cause for the current US recession. The middle class can no longer afford to sustain their share of the economy. Their wealth has been gradually transfered to the richest 1%. One way or another, we suffer because of their incredible greed. We are talking about TRILLIONS of dollars. Transfered FROM US TO THEM. Over a period of about 27 years. Thats Reaganomics for you. The wealth does not ‘trickle down’ as we were told it would. It just accumulates at the top. Shrinking the middle class and expanding the lower class. Causing a domino effect of socio-economic problems. But the rich will never stop. They will never settle for a reasonable share of ANYTHING. They will do whatever it takes to get even richer. Leaving even less of the pie for the other 99% of us to share. At the same time, they throw back a few tax deductable crumbs and call themselves ‘humanitarians’. IT CAN’T WORK THIS WAY. This is going to end just like a game of Monopoly. The current US recession will drag on for years and lead into the worst US depression of all time. The richest 1% will live like royalty while the rest of us fight over jobs, food, and gasoline. Crime, poverty, and suicide will skyrocket. So don’t fall for all of this PR CRAP from Hollywood, Pro Sports, and Wall Street PIGS. ITS A SHAM. Remember: They are filthy rich EVEN AFTER their tax deductable contributions. Greedy pigs. Now, we are headed for the worst economic and cultural crisis of all time. SEND A “THANK YOU” NOTE TO YOUR FAVORITE MILLIONAIRE. ITS THEIR FAULT. I’m not discounting other factors like China, sub-prime, or gas prices. But all of those factors combined still pale in comparison to that HUGE transfer of wealth to the rich. Anyway, those other factors are all related and further aggrivated because of GREED. If it weren’t for the OBSCENE distribution of wealth within our country, there never would have been such a market for sub-prime to begin with. Which by the way, was another trick whipped up by greedy bankers and executives. IT MAKES THEM RICHER. The credit industry has been ENDORSED by people like Oprah, Ellen, Dr Phil, and many other celebrities. IT MAKES THEM RICHER. So don’t fall for their ‘humanitarian’ BS. ITS A SHAM. NOTHING BUT TAX DEDUCTABLE PR CRAP. Bottom line: The richest 1% will soon tank the largest economy in the world. It will be like nothing we’ve ever seen before. and thats just the beginning. Greed will eventually tank every major economy in the world. Causing millions to suffer and die. Oprah, Angelina, Brad, Bono, and Bill are not part of the solution. They are part of the problem. EXTREME WEALTH HAS MADE WORLD PROSPERITY ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE. WITHOUT WORLD PROSPERITY, THERE WILL NEVER BE WORLD PEACE OR ANYTHING EVEN CLOSE. GREED KILLS. IT WILL BE OUR DOWNFALL. Of course, the rich will throw a fit and call me a madman. Of course, their ignorant fans will do the same. You have to expect that. But I speak the truth. If you don’t believe me, then copy this entry and run it by any professor of economics or socio-economics. Then tell a friend. Call the local radio station. Re-post this entry or put it in your own words. Be one of the first to predict the worst economic and cultural crisis of all time and explain its cause. WE ARE IN BIG TROUBLE.

‘I’ve never seen a black person in real life, but I’ve always considered myself prepared should the occasion arise.’
BRILLIANT.
I think we should all look at this in perspective, at least he didn’t try to dance. Also notice how everyone seemed to ignore his comment as if he’d just had a bout of Tourettes or something.

I love the Guy Smiley reference—you’re right, he DOES look like Guy!
And he’s STILL the best qualified candidate! Despite little Barack “Dobby” Obama’s inherent lovableness, rubbed in our face by every sycophantic lackey in the MSM. Barack would’ve done better in the crowd shot—but then, so what? Sure, Mitt looked out of place—he’s a former governor who’s worth a kazillion dollars—Christ, the guy’d be uncomfortable in a McDonald’s in Palm Beach, for that matter. Who wants Mr Regular Guy in the White House? If that’s what we wanted, then any idiot could do the job. And a few have.
Hellishly funny clip, though.

If he struggled there, he’d be lost in London, UK then!!

Did anyone notice the part towards the end where he mentions something about the baby resembling Micheal Jordan?

In regards to the guy who said “There is nothing scarier than being a lone person surrounded by many, many people of another race”, black people go through it all the time and still don’t feel the need to start dancing badly when white people are around. Why is it that many white people feel the need to get all “ebonically inclined” in front of black folks? Hilarious. I wish those folks in the video would have called Mitt out. “What are you trying to RELATE to me? Talk like a white man!”

I don’t care for Romney, but in his defense glendoor42, I think “who has your camera though” was Romney trying to figure out where to look. iI he’s posing with this girl and someone’s taking a picture with her camera, he should at least be looking at it, no? I don’t think it has anything to do with him thinking someone’s gonna steal it.

Mitt Romney is “blacker” than Obama. Just spraying…
January 28th, 2008 at 10:51 pm
And I suppose Hillary would look anymore comfortable in this situation? Without Bill?
January 28th, 2008 at 2:42 pm
Boy, this man sure knows how to speak to todays urban youth.
If he is voted into office, the White House is about to get Whiter.
January 28th, 2008 at 1:39 pm
Racist bastards….
January 28th, 2008 at 12:36 pm
Romney vs. Obama: Mitt knows that’s where it is headed. He wanted to get some white on black camera time other than that time in ‘92 when he was banging that hooker in the back of his limo while his chauffeur was taping.

After watching that video a few times now all I can think is how much Mitt Romney makes me think of a former highschool principal, who now sells cars, who looks like Guy Smiley.
January 26th, 2008 at 7:19 pm
Seriously? He looks like the muppet Guy Smiley.
January 26th, 2008 at 6:24 pm
He’s our NEXT PRESIDENT, people!!! Get used to it!!!!!

Firstly, Baby Got Back is a fantastic song.
Secondly, I didn’t know skin colour was a determining factor in musical taste.
Wallsy.

I laughed, I cried, I decided not to ignore your blog everyday.
January 25th, 2008 at 4:27 pm
Funny, I thought you won elections with votes. My bad.
January 25th, 2008 at 3:00 pm
He should have gone with ‘big baby jesus i cant wait,’ allowing him to court both conservative christians and blacks with one song reference. Two birds with one stone is how you win elections.
January 25th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
Mitt Romney must know a lot about kids, what with being a Mormon and all.
Yeah, I went there. I went there alright.
January 25th, 2008 at 2:34 pm
In Scotland, it’s more likely to be stabbed by the person in the velour sweats and lots of gold jewellery who happens to be white than a crowd of people of another race.
January 25th, 2008 at 1:59 pm
Mitt Romney is white?
January 25th, 2008 at 1:50 pm
By the way, shouldn’t he drop out of the race for the nomination, just for making that Baha Men reference? That song was like “Baby Got Back” — songs that white people think are catchy, yet black kids will laugh right in your face for even knowing the name of the song.

This kind of reminds of me of the time I went to the mall in Mesa, Arizona, except that it was the exact opposite, and instead of making an uncomfortable remark regarding white people and who they listen to (white people still like Michael McDonald, right?) I turned around and exited. My hands tremble at the thought of that mall….

Actually, it was the 2000 Mets who let the dogs out, but the dogs were unfortunately all on steroids and beat them 4 games to 1.
January 25th, 2008 at 1:00 pm
Its not like he had anything to lose, vote wise.
January 25th, 2008 at 12:27 pm
The line “Who’s got your camera though” like the person with the girls camera was gonna run with it. Way to look out for the little people there Mitt. What a fucking dick!
January 25th, 2008 at 12:20 pm
There is nothing scarier than being a lone person surrounded by many, many people of another race.
