Mitt Romney finally has a GREAT idea.

Daily Kos: Mitt Romney wants airplane windows to roll down in case of fire so people can breathe more easily


When you have a fire in an aircraft, there's no place to go, exactly, there's no- and you can't find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don't open. I don't know why they don't do that. It's a real problem. So it's very dangerous. And she was choking and rubbing her eyes. Fortunately, there was enough oxygen for the pilot and copilot to make a safe landing in Denver. But she's safe and sound.


It'd be like the mile-high club for Seamus, with the added benefit of asphyxiation induced by the low oxygen levels at cruising altitude - assuming that you manage to avoid having the plane rip apart due to the sudden loss of cabin pressure.
Brilliant, Mitt. Just brilliant.


you can't make this shit up.

 

[maniclion]

Yeah drop to a lower altitude and open windows to feed the fire....

He must have never ridden a commercial airline in his life if he doesn't know about the masks that drop down for the rest of us peasants.

well it's on the internet so it has to be true

it is true. Mitt Romney pulls in $6 million at Beverly Hills fundraiser - latimes.com

"I appreciate the fact that she is on the ground, safe and sound. And I don't think she knows just how worried some of us were," Romney said. "When you have a fire in an aircraft, there's no place to go, exactly, there's no - and you can't find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don't open. I don't know why they don't do that. It's a real problem. So it's very dangerous. And she was choking and rubbing her eyes. Fortunately, there was enough oxygen for the pilot and copilot to make a safe landing in Denver. But she's safe and sound."

shit like this happens when you don't know or believe what you are saying.. didn't he say "corpsemen" like 15 times in a speech once? lmao..

i'd like to see a video of romney saying that, if that's possible, im a real skeptic

 

[Bowden]

Based on this I am starting to think that MR.CEO is one of those common executive types that smoozes well, is not too bright and totally depends on the help to get anything done.

I bet that Obama knows why you cannot open the windows in an airplane. :-D

why would you assume that if he doesn't even now how to pronounce corpsman?

I bet that Obamas daughters know why as well.

 

[Little Wing]

Romney still wins the stupid trophy.

 

[Bowden]

I wonder if Romney has ever considered opening the door on an aircraft to get a breath of fresh air?
After all the air at 25k feet is probably a lot more fresher and less polluted than the air near the ground.

 

[Bowden]

Romney still wins the stupid trophy.

He wins the academy award for the most stupid presidential candidate comment this year for sure.

i'm wondering if they "didn't have" to use oxygen masks or were just too stupid to.

 

[jay_steel]

screw this shit... At least Romney does not blame the recent terrorist attacks on American Free speech. There is no excuse for terrorist attacks. Or give our entire stimulus package to foreign countries. Explain this to me, Obama gets on stimulus package and give it to other countries... Gets another and further gives it to foreign businesses and LW you bitch about outsourcing. HE IS GIVING OUR COUNTRIES MONEY TO OTHER COUNTRIES!!!

Just think how popular Romney would be if he held campaign flyovers over major American cities, opened the aircraft door and threw money out the door.

Romney has had his fair share of stupid comments, he's a goof and a downright inept politician. But, did the people in this thread graduate from Harvard Business school and Harvard Law school?

I bet you that if they did they would be smart enough to know why you can't open the windows on an airplane.

So you would rather a president steel money that belongs to American people and give to aid foreign business in attempt for them to increase there energy research companies and go bankrupt. You guys need to get off Obama's cock. Romney is not the best fill for president but he is way better then what we have right now period. National Debt, unemployment and ect.

All I hear is it cant be fixed in one term (cry cry cry) its not Obama's fault bla bla bla. So its not his fault he fucked over our stimulus or other stupid shit he has done..

Obama nominated Timothy Geithner, a repeat tax cheater, to head the government agency that enforces the tax laws.

Obama signed a stimulus bill that spent money on bonuses for AIG executives. Prior to signing this bill, Obama had said, ?when I?m president, I will go line by line to make sure that we are not spending money unwisely.?

In December 2011, ACLU executive director Anthony D. Romero criticized Obama for signing a bill that gave the U.S. government the power toindefinitely detain U.S. citizens without any charges being filed or any trial taking place.

The ACLU accused Obama of violating the U.S. Constitution by having a U.S. citizen killed without judicial process. U.S. Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) saidthat Obama?s actions might be an impeachable offense.

In 2011, after Boeing had hired 1,000 new employees to work at its new factory in South Carolina, the Obama administration ordered Boeing to shut down the factory, because the factory was non-union.

Stole money from retired teachers and police officers
During the Chrysler bankruptcy, Obama violated the Fifth Amendment and more than 150 years of bankruptcy law by illegally treating secured creditorsworse than unsecured creditors. Some of these secured creditors were retired teachers and police officers from Indiana. Richard A. Epstein, a law professor at New York University School of Law, wrote, ?Upsetting this fixed hierarchy among creditors is just an illegal taking of property from one group of creditors for the benefit of another, which should be struck down on both statutory and constitutional grounds.? Todd Zywicki, Professor of Law at George Mason University School of Law, wrote that Obama?s treatment of secured creditors was ?dangerous to the rule of law.? The Economist wrotethat Obama?s actions could ?establish a terrible precedent. Bankruptcy exists to sort legal claims on assets. If it becomes a tool of social policy, who will then lend to struggling firms in which the government has a political interest?? Francis Cianfrocca, the CEO of Bayshore Networks, wrote that Obama?s actions were ?an astonishingly reckless abrogation of contract law that will introduce a new level of uncertainty into business transactions at all levels, and make wealth generation more difficult going forward? An extraordinary uncertainty has been created when the most powerful man in the world can rewrite contracts and choose winners and losers in private negotiations as he sees fit. Since this is an unquantifiable uncertainty, and not a quantifiable risk, its effect on business and investor confidence will be large and unpredictable. As in the 1930s, a time when government also cavalierly rewrote private contracts, the prudent approach for business will be to invest minimally and wait for another administration.?

In June 2009, Obama fired Inspector General Gerald Walpin, after Walpin accused Sacramento mayor Kevin Johnson, an Obama supporter, of misuse of AmeriCorps funding to pay for school-board political activities.

In February 2009, U.S. Senator Robert Byrd (D-West Virginia) expressedconcern that Obama?s dozens of czars might violate the U.S. Constitution, because they were not approved by the U.S. Senate. U.S. Senator Russ Feingold (D-Wisconsin) expressed a similar concern in September 2009.

Forced union to drop health insurance for employees? children
In November 2010, 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East announced that it would drop health insurance for the children of more than 30,000 low-wage home attendants. Mitra Behroozi, executive director of benefit and pension funds for 1199SEIU stated, ?? new federal health-care reform legislation requires plans with dependent coverage to expand that coverage up to age 26? meeting this new requirement would be financially impossible.?

Gave some employers special exemptions from health care reform
In October 2010, Obama gave McDonald?s and 29 other organizations an exemption from some of the requirements of his health care plan. Over time, more than 1,300 organizations were granted waivers.

Gave tax dollars to campaign contributors and lobbyists, and falsely claimed that the money was for ?green? energy
The Obama administration gave $535 million to Solyndra, claiming that it would create 4,000 new jobs. However, instead of creating those 4,000 new jobs, the company went bankrupt. It was later revealed that the company?s shareholders and executives had made substantial donations to Obama?s campaign, and that the company had also spent a large sum of money on lobbying

Rewarded his fundraisers by giving them federal jobs
Although Obama had promised to have ?the most sweeping ethics reform in history,? and had often criticized the role of money in politics, the truth is that after he was elected, he gave administration jobs to more than half of his 47 biggest fundraisers.

Gave tax dollars to corrupt private contractors
While Obama was a state Senator in Illinois, he used tax dollars to build 504 units of slum housing, which had mice and backed up sewage. Federal inspectors graded the condition of the housing so bad that the buildings faced demolition.

Used tax dollars to glorify murderers
The Obama administration spent $1.6 million to restore graffiti that glorifiedcommunist murderers Che Guevara and Fidel Castro.

Doesn?t care about taxpayers? money
As part of his economic stimulus, Obama spent $205,075 of taxpayer money to relocate and care for a single specimen of Arctostaphylos franciscana, a shrubbery which nurseries sell for $16.

Tried to outlaw family farms
In April 2012, the Obama administration proposed new regulations which would prohibit farm children under 18 from working at grain elevators, silos, feed lots, stockyards, and livestock auctions, as well as from storing, marketing and transporting farm product raw materials. Critics claimed that this would prevent children from the common practice of working on their friends? and relatives? farms, and that farm children did not need ?help? from a community organizer in Washington.

In April 2012, Obama nominated Timothy Broas, who had ?bundled? more than $500,000 for Obama?s 2012 campaign, to be U.S. ambassador to the Netherlands.

Claimed that written tests are a form of ?racial discrimination?
The Obama administration accused fire and police departments in Jacksonville, Florida, New York City, and Dayton, Ohio of ?racial discrimination? because they required potential firefighters and police officers to take a written test. Ten real examples of these ?racist? questions from the New York test can be read here.

The Obama administration demanded that the Goldwater Institute pay$78,935.80 before it would share public records which it had requested under the Freedom of Information Act.

The Obama administration fined a high school $15,000 for selling soda to students during lunch.

Obama fired the CEO of General Motors, had the government take 60.8%ownership of the company, and ordered the company to close some of its dealerships.

 

[Bowden]

LOL,
You guys cannot pull enough crap out of your ass to misdirect and get around this one.
Just give up now. :-D

 

[Bowden]

You guys need to get off Obama's cock.

I don't like Obama.
I do however refuse to not think that this comment by Romney has to be one of the most stupidest comments I have ever read made by a Presidential Candidate.

I bet you that if they did they would be smart enough to know why you can't open the windows on an airplane.

Lol, if you graduated high school you should know that. You completely missed my point, the guy went to Business school and law school simultaneously. Politicians spew bullshit everyday, they don't believe over half the shit that comes out of their mouth.

Pretty sure I can buy a degree from anywhere for the right price....

Romney is completely out of touch with our world. If you think he's not going to play the crony games Bush played and Obama plays you're out of touch with our world too.

[GearsMcGilf]

I'm just grateful that Obama has closed gitmo, cut the deficit in half at the end of his first term, and we now have a public option so that every American has access to universal healthcare. Thank god for the expansion and the redistribution that Barry has been touting for years. It has worked wonders to date. We're only 16T in debt and counting. Come to think of it, didn't he chastise Bush for irresponsible spending during his campaign? Any chance we might see a 2010 budget at some point during his 2nd term? Perhaps one that members of his own party might sign?

Careful LW sucked the liberal dick one too many times and swallowed the "I an now officially beyond reason" cum.

Notice how he said he is a goof, an a downright inept politician? That doesn't sound like someone who thinks Romney will make the tough choices this country needs, now does it? Sure, the rich get hooked up from cradle to grave. The fact is he went to Business School and Law school at the same time. Both are very rigorous and have very high drop out rates. Romney is no doubt out of touch like many millionaire politicians are, what do you expect?
