How stupid must one be not to understand exactly what Romney meant…or how dishonest to pretend not to understand? At best his odd choice of words should have brought a slight smile, not this lefty freak-out. (Funny cartoon though.)
one wonders at his campaign. every time he says or does something regrettable…47%, binders, firing, saving detroit, etc…another facepalm, another discussion with senior staff, more spin…i speculate his binders are really back issues of old playboy mags, or at least sears catalogs from the 1960s. and, shouldn’t the conservatives be upset with him, when he dodged the draft to do missionary work in france during vietnam war.
I love how his wind-up handle is on the left in the first 2 panels, then its on the right for the last 2. Very subtle flip-flop. Maybe his head turned completely around as in the Exorcist.
People aren’t so much voting FOR Romney as they as voting AGAINST Obama (evidence: the campaign signs depicting Obama as Hitler, courtesy of Crossroads PAC)
I am not happy with Obama, but, I am smart enough to actually pay attention to what happens in DC rather than just blindly follow the sound bites various news media from ALL sides spout out. Most of what he proposed to get done was violently shot down by the republican opposition. Romeny on the other hand, scares the hell out of me, he is clueless in foreign policy, rude and undiplomatic to our friends (never mind our enemies) is arrogant and out of touch or down right contemptuous of the majority of poor and working class Americans and he and his supporters seem to think that’s just fine. Also as a devout Mormon he behaves exactly towards women as my many Mormon neighbors behaves towards their wives and daughters. It is his right to be a Mormon, I uphold that, but I refuse to be treated that way myself as is MY right. So, irregardless of Obama’s failings I won’t vote for Romeny.

Of course you realize, Pab, that you’re going to have to tell us what the little women are saying before we get the joke.

I don’t think it was the “lefties” who had a problem with Romney’s insensitivity. It was the women …

vwdualnomand, you forgot etch-a-sketch (in such a long list who could blame you). Etch-a-sketch makes it all better… um well different.

Suppose he’d said “binders full of blacks” or “binders full of Jews” or “binders full of Asians”. How would that have sounded?

A cabinet with binders full of women sounds like something Ed Gein would have come up with.

Yes, it is important to understand what he meant; most do, which is why the uproar. Those who defend him just aren’t listening.

I hope not as many women as estimated are deluded into falling for Obama’s deceptions. I have a REAL man!
