The Varmint Hunter has NEVER had a hunting license! "Romney Defends Lack of Hunting License"
:rofl: He just keeps digging that hole deeper and deeper and deeper. :rofl:


Romney Defends Lack of Hunting License
By GLEN JOHNSON, Associated Press Writer
Sat Apr 7, 2:34 AM

BOSTON - Officials in the four states where Mitt Romney has lived say the Republican presidential contender, who calls himself a lifelong hunter, never took out a license.

Romney says that's because he has seldom hunted where he needed one.

Questions about his hunting activities trailed Romney this week after he remarked at a campaign stop that he has been a hunter nearly all his life. The next day, his campaign said Romney had been hunting only twice, once as a teenager in Idaho and again last year with GOP donors in Georgia.

That was wrong, Romney said the day after that, adding that he had hunted rabbits and other small animals for many years, mainly in Utah. Hunting certain small game there doesn't require a license.<snip>

1. republicons really have trouble telling the truth. As usual.
republicons have a deeply ingrained propensity to lie to the people
of the United States of America.

2. Hunting birds in Georgia and rabbits in Utah BOTH require
hunting licenses.

Hunters actually get peeved with people who don't buy a hunting license, as it supports their programs

4. Someone send him out with Cheney on a hunting trip. Maybe they'll both
cancel each other out.

6. He shot at wabbits and squirrels with a BB gun
"More than twice," he says. And that is supposed to make him seem tough and rugged??
:rofl:

P.S. Better keep Mitt away from the Easter Bunny!

8. Well, let's put a friggin' POACHER in the WH. We've had just
about every other kind of scoundrel in there.

I know what most hunters would think of him for POACHING. And they're mostly Republicans.

How completely unsurprising.

I bet you didn't lift a finger to defend John Kerry on the goose hunting incident, now did you?

11. Romney is embarassing himself with this half-hearted pandering to gunowners.


He is fooked.
