"Romney's SWISS BANK ACCOUNT vs My Grandkids PIGGY BANK"!

Rate: 14 Flag

Yeah, they have one thing in common - Nobody can get into them!  And, by God; I've tried!

"What's a Blind Trust, Grandma"?

"Stick the 20 in the Slot & don't tell your Mother"!

All this talk of Romney's Swiss Bank Account got me thinking...

He doesn't have any "Walkin' Around Money" - and that would explain a lot of things:  

pockets1  

* Didn't have Jack for a frigin' Dog Kennel!

* Couldn't even buy any staples @ "Staples"!

* No Dough for Singing Lessons...even failed the Audition as Mitt "Osmond"! 

* No Bread to buy Sexier Jeans... but that's how Mormans wear 'em - 2 at a time!

* Treated at the Iowa Caucus - BBQ Chicken & Corn on the Cab - that's right; just like his Dog - it made it all the way there on a Taxi!  

* Bain & Company gave him a symbolic salary of 1 Dollar & gave half of it back when he took a leave of absense!

* Spent way too much in '94 Senate Race Staging himself as "Everyman" - Herding Cows, Baling Hay, Unloading a Fishing Boat & Hauling Garbage & got a callus on his Wallet!

* Then spent what was left for an NRA Staged Event as "A Lifetime Hunter" & accidently shot a Waiter - luckily he was a Democrat!

* And to top it all off - he thought he bought Switzerland!

Funny post. Frankly, I think his Swiss story is a little cheesy with a few too many holes. I am not very fondue of the guy. R
Heehee - Now let's see - why would an American need a bank account in Switzerland.

1 - You are a dual citizen. Nope.

2. You vacation in Switzerland regularly. - Nope.

3. Your kid is studying at university in Zurich - nope,

4 - You plan to retired to Switzerland - nope.

5. You won the Swiss lottery - nope.

6. You have something you want to hide. - Bingo!

:-) / r
You oughta see my smile!
And--we wrote in a similar vein today!

Ha! "Blind trust" is what many Americans have in the Republican Party. r
He did buy himself some nice suits!! And a spiffy hair!! :D
Very Funny. You do it best! :)
Ouu Jerry! Your puns make me Yodel! And trust me - that's not a good thing!
That's funny Torrito! Or maybe his U.S. Bank Account was too full! It'll all come out in "The Debates"!
Thanks so much Jon - I'll check yours out today! Now we know why he kept on saying "It was in another pair of Pants"!
Thanks Dan! "Blind Trust"...how Romney can say that with a straight face is amazing. As if we're all children & he's got a little secret...I mean loophole!
Thanks Tink! Yeah, he bought those Suits in China! To show he's frugal...with 2 pairs of pants! Have you seen him play Golf? A frigin' Tuxedo!
Thanks so much Ande! Remember when we girls had to have a little "Mad Money"?
I don't know who to chastise, you or Gerald!!
Thanks jmac! Chastise both of us - we like a little verbal S&M!
Too funny--symbolic salary of a dollar, huh.
Thanks Paul! Yes, a Dollar! Romney was actually in the room when he signed it! ha ha
I'm trying to picture him as Mitt Osmond.

Naah, he doesn't have Marie's irreverence.
In a close presidential race, the really stupid people are the deciding factor in the election because anyone with an IQ of over 80 has already made up their minds weeks before the election. One of the deciding factors to the idiot block is if they can understand what an amoral plutocrat Mitt Romney really is and how little contact he has with ordinary Americans.

While it's a long way to go before November, I believe that the unqualified answer to Mitt's Swiss bank account(s), etc. is YES! on the idiot question.
Thanks Kosh! He's got 18 grandchildren - odds are SOMEONE will be President! And then, we'll FINALLY accept a Morman in the White House!
Ha! Go figure! Very clever and funny, Marilyn. Also, what Lefty said. R
Thanks old new lefty! Agreed! I just want to know what goodies are in his Safe Deposit Box - maybe The Smoking Gun... his brilliant Tax Accountant's phone number!
Thanks so much Thoth! Wait for the Obama/Romney Debates! Mitt will be 50 Shades of Red!
Just got back from the coast. No change in my mayonaise jar full of nicklels tied to the Santa Cruz Pier. I'm really bummed--aren't offshore accounts supposed to be more profitable???

Thanks for the giggles, Marilyn. I think Romney's stretching the truth like string cheese.

We know he's got a cuckoo clock. The cuckoo comes out of his forehead, chirps and then goes back it.
Thanks Shiral! If you got the laughs - I got the funnies! I like your Investment Portfolio amongst the Barnacles! Care to share your sweet spot?
Thanks Blu! I hear the Cuckoo Clocks are now Digital & all very quiet. The Bird looks who's running for President & then craps on his Head! I love Technology!
Thanks Lisa Chesser! I could tell you were a New Laugher! Keep 'em coming!
be kind to switzerland, it's the only democracy in the un. i wish i knew how they did it, so others could follow, but i suspect it was dumb luck.

many people despise the swiss, their banks assist rich people around the world to escape taxes, but this is narrow minded. every one would escape taxes if they could, and why should the swiss be blamed if you let the rich get away with it? nope, it's just envy: the cities are clean, the trains run on time, and they are the honest brokers of diplomacy.

and it's not just the swiss- the scandinavians have a higher standard of living, and the dutch, even cuba, in some respects.

so what is the connection between mitt and switzerland? simple: he will retire there, close to his bank account, the skiing, confident that the decay everywhere visible in the usa will not trouble him in st. moritz.
Thanks Al for stopping by! Yes, Mitt will have The Good Life whether he wins or not. I absolutely loved Switzerland, Holland & Denmark in the 70's when I lived in Europe. A breath of fresh air. Who knows why the U.S. is decaying - as you say. Too much of a "Melting Pot"? Spending too much on Wars or Outsourcing ? How about it being your next article here?
I saw a picture on Facebook yesterday where they spelled Romney's name with the o and the m reversed, so it said R-money. From here on, that's my name for him.
Thanks Cranky! I heard him say "The first 249 Million was the hardest"! I don't know about you, but I could get by with his "Loose Change Jar"!
Hell, Marilyn, I'd be happy if he just gave me his old car. I'd happily wash the dog poop off the windshield.
Some good stuff, Marilyn. And God a'mighty I need a chuckle just to get started.
Thanks so much Flylooper! It surely beats what's going on today!
