Mitt Being Obliviously Ironic

Mitt Romney complained to USA Today that one problem with the Olympics is “government personalities are promoting themselves…with someone else’s money.”

Um, didn’t Mitt mention his running the Salt Lake Olympics when he ran for governor of Massachusetts and then for prez as one of his main qualifications?  Anybody else remember all that stuff about how he turned around a failing enterprise and showed amazing executive and leadership skills?

But at least stray dogs weren’t murdered for the Salt Lake games.  Mitt personally drove each stray to Canada on the roof of his car.

Olbermann on the Strays of Sochi

Keith Olbermann had an excellent commentary on the murder of the dogs in Sochi:

Dying for the Olympics

Local authorities in Sochi are pushing to round up and kill as many stray dogs as they can before the Olympics.

They had promised to build an animal shelter before the Games, but like so many other things the Russians promise, it didn’t happen.  So they’re being shot or poisoned, those responsible won’t say which.
