THIS ONE'S FOR YOU, EDDIE

Twenty-four percent of Mormon marriages end in divorce. Statistically, atheists and Catholics are more likely to stay married than Mormons.

One of Mitt Romney's selling points to the Republican evangelical base is that he and his wife, Anne, have been married for 39 years. Considering the marriage records of the rest of the Republican field -- Giuliani married three times, McCain married twice -- Romney has something to brag about.

I would say that I won't venture to guess why the Romneys' marriage has been so successful, but I can't. Because I am going to venture a guess right now: they are both pathological liars who have the same commitment to selective memory, deception, prevarication, flip-flopping, political expediency, disingenuousness, self-interest, self-importance and self-aggrandizement.

Not only is daddy Mitt a truth-masturbating liar when it comes to abortion, claiming he really wasn't pro-choice before he was (is) unequivocally pro-life, his wife’s own hypocritical past is coming back to bite her in her big, fat Stepford Wife ass.

On Fox News Sunday (h/t Crooks and Liars), Chris Wallace (bless his little fascist-kissing ass) confronted Anne about a $100.00 donation she made to Planned Parenthood in 1993. Of course, Annie (get your varmint-shooting gun) was appalled that anyone would strain to associate a contribution to Planned Parenthood with being pro-choice. And who wouldn’t agree after hearing how rational and logic-inspiring her argument was:

You know, a check for $100, written in 1993, I believe is when the check was… I don’t even remember writing the check. I know today, I wouldn’t write the check. I mean, how do you remember all the checks you’ve written, you know, how many years ago was that?  (view here)

So, in typical Republican style, you can’t be held responsible for political donations you make if you don’t remember writing the check – something akin to Fred (aka Uncle Milty) Thompson’s claim that he didn’t really lobby on behalf of abortion rights because he doesn't remember doing it. (He probably doesn't remember any of the times he let a little too much beer convince him it was okay to go fishing on the other side of the pond either.)

If a Republican tells a lie in the forest and no one hears it, is it really a lie?

Anne, babe, whether it was $1.00, $100.00 or $1 million, you made a donation that carries with it an implicit (tacit) endorsement of the donee's agenda.

Hopefully, someone will have the balls to ask her how many baby fetuses her $100.00 helped destroy. But, alas! Democrats have too much compassion (and class), and Republicans (even so-called Christians) are loath to expose the hypocrisy of their own.

PS: Did I mention that she spawned five, FIVE, pantywaist sons who think that driving around Iowa in a Winnebago campaigning for their used-car-salesman-of-a father is as patriotic as serving in the Military?!

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, driving around in a multi-thousand dollar air-conditioned Winnebago with beds, bathroom, microwave and television around the backroads of Iowa is just the same as driving a reconstituted Humvee without air-conditioning in 130° heat in full combat gear through the IED-ridden streets of Baghdad or Fallujah -- if it means getting their daddy elected so he can continue to make other parents' children fight big oil's war.
