If you’re wondering why various and sundry folks aren’t really too heart-broken about Mitt Romney being called a “vulture capitalist*,” it’s because of little things like this (via @GOP12):

*I may be one of the few people out there who find that comment both accurate and not particularly pejorative. Vultures serve an unglamorous yet vital job in the ecosystem: they eat dead stuff before it becomes a breeding ground for plague. I understand that Romney supporters still might not find the comparison all that aesthetically pleasing, though.
“How can we trust anyone who wants to kill Social Security?”
Easily. And with a greater since of ease compared to someone who wants to keep it going in spite of how big a failure it is. Next question?
And vultures are useful compared to political animals.
Grr. Greater SENSE of ease that is. Proofreading is your friend.
I firmly maintain that “Save a Pretzel for the Gas Jets” was what started Perry on his downward public spiral…
Perry wants to kill something that will self-destruct and take a huge chunk of the economy with it?

Romney intended this to be an ad for him, right?
Hypocrisy, thy name is Willard Mitt Romney.
