Mitt Romney Announces Essay Contest, Which Will Be A "Game Changer" (VIDEO)

What's this thing, on the YouTubes? From Wonkette comes Mitt Romney, who, while he "doesn't need to tell us that our nation faces a new generation of challenges," is SO TOTALLY going to tell us that anyway! His solution? Straight from the ovens at the GOP headquarters at Pie-Tanza: ESSAY CONTEST. What a frabjous idea that is, spun right from his robot mind!

Here's the dilly. Radical jihadists want to destroy you. All of you! Especially you. And up until now, what have YOU been able to do about it? Well now, you can finally get all pro-active up in this piece by straight up writin' some essays full of bromides!

ROMNEY: Here's what I'm asking you to do. Try answering this question: What does a free and strong America mean to me? And do it in two hundred and fifty words or less.

The person with the best answer will apparently win an "all expenses paid trip for two to Boston," to sit in his fancy-pants elite seats for a Boston Red Sox game, and then maybe you'll get to do yard work on one of Mitt's "sanctuary mansions" or something. No promises! Oh, and there's a fifty dollar entry fee, which will help Mitt Romney run for President.

Anyway, if you want to win this thing for sure, just make sure your 250-word essay contains the words, "Tax cuts!" written 125 times, and that the essay is titled Microtrends.

Dude, I'm not paying $50 to tell Mitt Romney my two cents.

I visited Mitt's PAC web site and it's just as good as the U-tube video! There is a section about how to unleash the power of market forces! Powerful stuff that got me thinking about how to improve the essay contest. Lucky me, there was a contact us link. These guys know the Ethernet! Here is my suggestion, reproduced in it's entirety.

How about unleashing the power of competitive pricing? For instance, if I think my essay does the job with just 125 words, can I enter for just $25? And so on. Let market forces encourage word economy too!

Just to get the ball rolling, here is my killer 20 cent entry. Jesus. Pretty much sums it up. I'll send you a E postcard from Fenway.

Whose rumpus room did they film that in? Looks like That 70's Show. Love the lamp. Somebody call John Waters, he can do this decor justice.

They just ripped off the idea from Barack Obama's inauguration committee! Obama's contest was to write an essay saying what the inauguration meant to you. The winners received an all expense paid trip to Washington DC for the parties AND tickets to the inauguration but it was 10 winners and it was free to enter.

WHO IS MITT ROMNEY?

[Solja]

The interesting thing about this video is that at the end of it, at the very bottom, it says:

"...Not authorized by any candidate or candidate's committee"

But yet, it's named, "Mitt Romney's Free and Strong America Pac"

Now if that's not an authorization, or even a full blown endorsement, I don't know what one is.

LAME!

Mitt Romney is an illegal alien.

And I mean the interplanetary kind.

[Trittydi]

This man is NEVER going to sit in the White House. Who's going to tell him?

I know it! hahaha! His own Party of Racists will NEVER allow that. He is too strange to them with that mormon thing he's into. LOL

For just fifty dollars you can dump your values, agree with me, and watch a baseball game that's free on TV!

Another right religious freak...

Hey Mittens, "Who let the dolt out? Who, who, who-who?"
