Mitt's purpose on being there was to tell them their services are no longer required.


And like Mitt says, he loves firing people.

Rmoney's nearby.

I was very close to the moron's rally picking up a toy from a local toy store (no chains!) by less than half a mile from the rally site.

(Props to Timbuk Toys)

The stench will last until Thursday. At least the neutralizer's coming in tomorrow.

We grew paper lantern habanero peppers. My wife picked those (and some cayennes) and set the bowl on the table. I snarfed an entire paper lantern. My face turned red and I begged for water (like a gallon of it). The only other time I was taken out was by little purple Thai peppers, but this one was far hotter. I eat hot peppers as a snack. These things are HOT! Did I mention that they are hot? My daughters are all laughing at me because they know I'm almost immune to capsicum. This fucker owned me. It tasted good, and I haven't had indigestion for several days (capsicum is perfect for curing that). Still, it was humiliating. I might have another one tomorrow, just for kicks.

Note: Do NOT touch your naughty bits after dealing with hot peppers - bad idea.

and started singing "Who let the dogs out, who, who who." In this photo, he's probably wondering how he can get that song in with "Yo quiero Taco Bell." Not to mention that the body language of the woman standing next to him, with a clenched teeth smile and tilting her head away from him, is plainly saying: "Ew, Republican cooties."

You can tell their smiles are the kind where you know you need to smile for the pic but really don't want to be smiling.

Compare their "smiles" to the more genuine ones you see on the glowing, happy, beaming faces of people who are in with pics with POTUS or VPOTUS...
