Mitt Romney: You gotta luv em!

When I read the following article on the Huffington Post, I started to laugh so hard I got a cramp in my side.

It seems that some LIB-TARD investigators are upset because they've spent the last few years looking through Romney's 700 CUBIC FEET of documents from his time as Governor looking for DIRT to no avail.
In January 2007, as the onetime Massachusetts governor was leaving office -- and preparing for his first presidential run -- he and his staff were required by law to transfer much of their work product to state archives. Romney's administration responded by handing over materials measuring approximately 700 cubic feet. The boxes covered everything in his four-year term -- from legislative documents to legal counseling to travel records. 
.......If one wants to search out all of Romney's emails on, say, health care reform, good luck finding anything. Not every document was necessarily put in order, nor even labeled. 
"The internal organization varies," says Michael Comeau, assistant state archivist. "We kind of take what they give us." 
"There's no discreet series of emails," he adds. "We didn't take any electronic or digital files." Romney's emails were printed out and stuffed into cartons. 
One reporter referred to the 700 boxes of documents this way:
"It's enormous and a lot of it's crap,” the reporter says, referring to the boxes of Romney documents. "You just have to figure out how much time [you want to spend]. My experience is, they were pretty careful about what they left behind. You're welcome to it. It's a ton of shit." 
Of course Romney's Spokeswoman Andrea Saul had the perfect response to this situation:
They didn't get any complaints four years ago regarding the state of the archives, and that the Massachusetts Republican deserves credit for choosing over-disclosure instead of hyper-secrecy. 
Just the image of reporters and Deval Patrick hacks going through these boxes.....ROFLMAO!

I say, Let them earn their money.

I agree, It is a funny thought to think of these people looking for dirt that isn't there.

And to think, he did not put up a fight, did not say they were 'personal' and nothing had to be redacted! He just said, there they are, knock yourselves out!

I guess the biggest criticism isn't that they destroyed everything (like Huck) or that they are trying to hide things, it's just that they didn't categorize and organize it the way that the reporters thought they should?

The implication is that they covered all of the "dirt" up and left the trash behind. Crazy world we live in. Maybe, just maybe, they left the records behind as they were required to do. I have heard people say that they have trouble finding "dirt" on Romney; they always imply that it must be there, he's just an expert at covering it up. Maybe he just lives a decent life; why does that thought never occur to them?

Romney probably knew there was nothing to hide.
But why not create a scenario where these slimeballs think that maybe there was. Love it when liberals waste their time and efforts.

This really made me smile, Bosman. Let them knock themselves out. Unlike Huck and Palin, Romney has nothing to hide.

Squeaky clean, that guy!
