Politico and Huffpo are off limits from here.

But he didn't know how to ask for them. I guess that is something those elite schools didn't bother to teach him.

good

but they couldn't have come from "a locally-famous establishment" called Bethel BAKERY"?

Logic isn't his strong point, is it?

Even if he was attempting humor, it doesn't work. He's truly an alien to our world.

tolerate these plebeian victuals?"

speckles on things, don't y' know.

the only way he has done it

You'd expect him to be the sort of person who had etiquette lessons from the age of three. I hate to sound like a monarchist, but could you imagine a member of Britain's royal family, even one as whiny and entitled as Prince Chuck, making a comment like that?

as long as he's been running for office, he still has no self-control. That look on his face is awful!

I guess some things just can't be taught, like how to talk to the common folk without looking like a condescending ass.

"Oooh, look! The peasants expect me to actuallt eat some of their swill! What IS some of this stuff? It can't be edible food fit for human consumption, can it?""

Always a squelch. Just downright mean. That's why he cut his classmate's hair in high school. Just downright mean. No respect for others' feelings.

You know they want to.

"Gives reporters cookies while her organic kale and broccoli go untouched!"

Politico site! Worth a read. Add your own.

I never miss it.

See, what you do is get the Million Moms to whip up a batch of toothsome, delectable delights (or have your servants do it). Go to the next campaign event. Then, just toss him some respectable, republican cookies when he starts to speak.

I've even got a name for it:

Toss Your Cookies For Romney!

You're welcome.

.. would have eaten the whole tray and then taken about 3 dozen to go! So not all Repugs are rude.

And not only does he have a job making those lousy cookies you won't touch but he contributes a higher percentage of his income to federal, state and local taxes than you do.

not like some stores that have 30 year old Hostess Twinkees.

This is at least the second time he has treated a small business like shit on the campaign.

Those cookies are now a huge hit!

And it's those customs that gauge just how well adapted a politician might be.

Those cookies could have been made with dog crap but someone should have advised Romney about the cookies so he could have taken a bite and declare that they were wonderful.

I still remember the shock years ago when John Kerry showed up in Philadelphia and was taken to Pat's Steak down in South Philly. That's a fun lil tradition that Philly does with visiting politicians. If you visit Pat's Steaks or Gino's (across the street) you'll see photos of the politicians that have visited before including ones of Bill Clinton. Thing is, no one prepped Kerry on how to properly order a cheesesteak and well, Kerry shocked the city when he asked for a hoagie and if they had swiss cheese.

It's the lil things that will endear a politicians to the voters. Clinton always rocked in that area and Obama has done pretty well.

I can't imagine anyone losing an election because they disparaged some cookies or ordered a cheesesteak incorrectly but enough of these lil whoopsies doesn't look good for a candidate.

"Obama trying to buy votes!" Somebody somewhere will try to advance a silly theory like that, sure as I'm sitting here.

What an ass!
