Mitt Romney's oldest son, Tagg Romney joked in a radio interview Wednesday his preferred method of dealing with a combative President Barack Obama was to "take a swing" at his dad's rival.
Asked on the Bill Lumaye radio show what it's like "to hear the President of the United States call your dad a liar," Tagg Romney joked about his fantasy response.
take a swing at him," he said. "But you know you can't do that because, well, first because there's a lot of Secret Service between you and him, but also because that's the nature of the process. You know they're going to try to do anything they can do to make my dad into something he's not."
"We signed up for it, we've got to kind of sit there and take our punches, and send them the other way," he continued.
One of Tagg Romney's brothers, Josh, downplayed the comments in a Thursday morning interview on ABC's "The View."
"That brother has slugged me a couple of times," Josh Romney said. "I'm sure President Obama has nothing to worry about."
Asked about the original comments on Thursday, Romney campaign spokeswoman Amanda Henneberg said Tagg Romney was "joking about how frustrating this process can be for family."
Forget about all of the quotes and comments about "binders for women" and "gender pay equality," let's chat for a moment about violence and children.
Tagg Romney, Mitt's son, who got his job as a managing partner at Solamere Capital through family privilege, was recording stating that he "wanted to punch President Obama." And that the only thing stopping him was the Secret Service.
More likely the only thing stopping him was knowing he'd have likely gotten his block knocked off right in front of the whole world. Then again, for a man raised by a single parent, President Obama more than likely would have been too much of a gentleman to hit the whining privileged kid back. He's a lover, not a brawler.
But forget who would have won a brawl between the two of them ... let's talk about violence. Period.
Mitt Romney stood on stage at the debates on the evening of October 16 and let the world know beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is nothing more than a collector, and that he wants the United States White House on his collector's shelf.
In less than an hour, he told the nation's women that he had "binders full of women" that were hired during his administration, neglecting the fact that the majority of women in executive positions dropped to less than half during that time as well.
He said that as President, he would 'understand' that women need to sometimes get off work early to go home and "cook and clean." (Where is he? Still back in the 19th century?)
He said that single mothers, single parenting, is the biggest cause of gun crime violence in the nation, while talking to a President who was raised by a single mom who has a Secretary of State who is married to a former President who was raised by a single mom.
Yet ... his own son, as the former governor speaks about the violence of children raised by single mothers, is recorded saying that he "wanted to punch President Obama" for doing what President Obama should have been doing ... calling his father a liar.
Considering that his father has been leaked to the world as not only a liar and a tax hustler who should be in prison, not in the Oval Office; but also as a man who would tape his family dog to the top of an SUV for a cross-country trip, as a school bully himself who went around dressing up as a cop to scare people, and whose wife also says that she worries about his "mental health" if he is elected ... that should just about tell everyone everything what they need to know about the entire Romney family ... husband, wife, kids, dog, and all.
They are saying what they want to say exactly like they want to say it...and they don't seem to be aware that the whole world is listening through ears that they don't have to hear with.
They are being interviewed, not just for Mitt Romney, but their whole family is being interviewed by the United States of America for a job it doesn't look like they're going to get.
