Mitt Romney today, apparently condemning
some nasty words Bill Maher said about Sarah Palin in a show a year ago:
In an appearance on the Sean Hannity radio show, Romney said, “Frankly, what Bill Maher said, and I finally read the transcripts, I was offended, outraged that a person would say that on TV and would not have been called on the carpet before now and not apologized for it. To have the Obama campaign retain a million dollars from Bill Maher, it is simply outrageous. I don’t condone that kind of language and particularly in a public setting, a TV setting.… It’s just gone way beyond the pale.”
Mitt Romney two weeks ago on the multi-day attack by Rush Limbaugh on a Georgetown law student,
calling her a "slut" and proposing she post sex tapes online:
"It's not the language I would have used."
In Mitt's defense, it takes him a full year to get around to actually reading stuff people say he should be outraged by. So there's still plenty of time.
