Repeated as Farce


Mitt channels his inner Tricky Dick:

Republican Mitt Romney said Wednesday that if elected president he and his wife will not embarrass the nation by their conduct in the White House as happened in "the Clinton years."

President Richard Nixon: [ walks over to portrait of JFK ] You! Kennedy. You looked so good all the time. They're gonna find out about you, too. The president! Having sex with women within these very walls. That never happened when Dick Nixon was in the White House! Never! Never! Never!..

[ flashback to Pat writing in her diary ]

Pat Nixon: "Never.. never.. never.. never.. never.. never." [ sips drink, gains control of herself ] "

Oh, and stuff like this evidently fails to, no pun intended, arouse Mitt's, um, ire in the slightest.
