Drew and Mike does these all the time. If they found his phone number, they would have beat Romney to the punch.

Well Mitt is his middle name, his first name is Willard. Cue the Jackson 5 music.

heinousjay: who is his daddy, and what does he do?

mitt romney's dad is a mexican national, and, apparently, he crosses borders illegally.


Since Mitt's dad run for President in 1968 & was Governor of Michigan & was born to American parents you link is farkng bullshiat.

The article doesn't say Romney's parents were Mexican, just that they were Americans living in Mexico because they were avoiding prosecution for their polygamy. A child born to American parents outside the country is still an American citizen and eligible to be President. Now, whether the story is bullshiat or not is another matter. It isn't that far fetched to believe that practicing Mormans were persecuted for their polygamist beliefs.

I'm not sure if this is political prank or not, but on USA Today's web site they have the headline:

"White House missing CIA, Iraq e-mails"

and if you click on the Comments link above the headline, you get directed to:

Would have been better if he actually had someone who could impersonate Arnie instead of a few stupid sound clips. Still, I enjoyed it.

Dude, I have secondary confirmation on George Romney's birth place. NNDB (new window)

Fun fact about George Romney "He died during the fitness craze of the 1990's, from a heart attack while exercising on a treadmill."

You know who else was born in Mexico?

Yeah, that's right. And the point is - who cares? He was a natural-born citizen due to the fact that his parents were still American citizens albeit living in Mexico.

"Who is your Daddy?"

Did they get that clip from one of Ahnold's early porn movies?

He wasn't called Ahnold back then, of course.

Ahnold's porn name was "Miles Long".

Hey, the residuals from "Pumping Iron" had run out, he was young and he needed the money.

Judge not and all that.

/anyone who believes that this "prank" call wasn't totally scripted has just been pranked themselves.

B-b-but we need to abolish birthright citizenship!

LocalCynic: B-b-but we need to abolish birthright citizenship!

If birthright citizenship is removed, what standard do we have to determine who is a citizen? Should everyone take the test at the age of 18? Should we require military service to gain citizenship? It's a frightening proposition, just because the slippery slope has so many horrendous outcomes. I'd rather we not even begin down that road.

Vietnam war, draft deferment for Mitt Romney was 4f: unqualified for military service because he was a religious missionary.

that or the plot of a sci fi novel.

but that would mean there would be a residence class, along with citizen?

Open_Mouth_Inert_Foot: but that would mean there would be a residence class, along with citizen?

I would assume so; the question would be, what kind of rights would be reserved only for citizens? The founding fathers had their failures, but they made it explicitly clear that rights were reserved for all people, not just the white male landowners. I fear for us if we do start to create various official 'classes' of people in this country. We worked so hard to get away from that in the first place...

Starship Troopers.

Great Book.

Prolly the worst adaptation Sci-Fi film in history.

/Yes, Quatchi has seen Delaurentis' "Dune"

Romney is a mormon Mexican?
