Romney released from hospital after fall over the weekend
By John Bowden - 03/01/21 07:16 PM EST


Sen. Mitt Romney said Monday he was briefly hospitalized over the weekend after a fall in Boston, receiving a number of stitches as a result.

Speaking to reporters Monday evening, the Utah Republican said that he "had a tough weekend," before briefly joking that he received the injuries because he "went to CPAC, that was the problem," referring to the Conservative Political Action Conference, where former President Trump and a number of his supporters gathered over the weekend.

"I took a fall," Romney clarified, laughing. "I took a fall, knocked me unconscious, but I'm doing better," he added.

Why would Mittens even bring up CPAC?  I just don't see the humor.  Not at all. Nodda. None.

He was conscious BEFORE he fell down?   How could he tell?  We can't.
The GOP is not the party leadership.  The GOP is the party MEMBERSHIP.   The members need to kick the leaders out if they leaders are going the wrong way.  No coddling allowed.

He must have slipped on the ice while trying to kiss his own ass.
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Romney thinks he's a regular Henny Youngman.  Doesn't understand the subtle difference between telling a joke, and being one.

Sounds to me like Mittens was falling down drunk.

Not that I blame him. If I were him,I would be drunk all the time from trying to get drunk enough to forget who I was.

Being the perfect Mormon, I doubt Mittens was drunk - but I haven't seen him say what caused the fall. Maybe he slipped on some green Jell-o. Or maybe he had a medical "event" and passed out.  :shrug:

Romney had gone to visit his son and grandchildren in Boston.  He said he was playing with the grandchildren and fell.  I saw a picture of him with a mask on and you could see the black eye from the fall.  I could not see the stitches in his eyebrow and could not see the stitches in his lip.  When I read he had stitches in his lip, I thought how much that would hurt.

At least he didn't use the Harry Reid exercise bike gimmick.

That's all fine and good; he was playing with his grandchildren.  Accidents happen; I've had several playing with my grandkids -- I fell through a rope climber once while holding onto my grandson so he wouldn't fall flat on his face. Ive tripped over a wagon that my other grandson thought I needed; it just wasn't exactly in a helpful place ... etc.

My issue with Romney in this scenario is that he had to take a jab at CPAC which primarily consisted of really good conservatives which had absolutely nothing to do with his accident. It wasn't funny and IMHO  he actually made a complete fool of himself. He's  not a conservative and has voted along with the liberals. Sure he is absolutely entitled to his opinion, but he should vote as a conservative because that is why his constituents voted for him.  With an 'R' along side his name at the ballot box he should now vote accordingly. 

The GOP no longer has room for RINO's.  None and that includes Romney.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
