Mr. Science

Oh conservatives and their knowledge of S-C-I-E-N-C-E!

Mitt Romney's idea for how to limit potential safety hazards on airplanes:

“I appreciate the fact that she is on the ground, safe and sound. And I don’t think she knows just how worried some of us were,” Romney said. “When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly, there’s no — and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem. So it’s very dangerous. And she was choking and rubbing her eyes. Fortunately, there was enough oxygen for the pilot and copilot to make a safe landing in Denver. But she’s safe and sound.”

Mitt, you don't know why they don't let the windows open in pressurized jets flying at 30,000 plus feet?

This guy is starting to make Palin look smarter.

Good one, Mitt!

Your unique way of shitting in your hat and then clapping it on your head brings joy to my heart!

Now if only there were some way for me to foreclose on Bain Capital, outsource your job to China, and cheat you out of your pension...

Mitt is a Fleischmann–Pons cold fusion pseudoscience fan:

I do believe in basic science. I believe in participating in space. I believe in analysis of new sources of energy. I believe in laboratories, looking at ways to conduct electricity with -- with cold fusion, if we can come up with it. It was the University of Utah that solved that. We somehow can’t figure out how to duplicate it.

This interview was last December. 2011. You would think after over two decades it would have sunk in.

Give the pretty boy a gentleman's C, and send him back to his mama.

why didn't those oxygen masks drop?

This guy graduated from Stanford, Harvard...from the cream of American education. Mother of Gawd.

He wants to bring MORE oxygen into the plane, as in to feed the fire? Gee, he really doesn't like his wife much.

Let me hasten to say that he did NOT graduate from Stanford, although he did attend there for a year (long enough to join with the other dweebs demonstrating IN SUPPORT OF the Vietnam War).

Sure, Rmoney, you're for basic science (if there's money in it for you).

You just don't understand fuck-all about it.
