Mitt Romney Does 'Gay Voice', Asks for the Pink Tie: VIDEO
Gawker got this clip of what Buzzfeed calls Mitt's "best gay-guy impression" from their 'FOX News mole', and called a Hollywood voice expert to get an opinion:
"I would say he is doing his impersonation of an effeminate man. I think it was his attempt at being funny. My advice to him is he shouldn't give up his day job."
Watch, AFTER THE JUMP...
Is it any surprise that the Republican field gets uncomfy around pink?
Oh Mitt! You're so funny. The PINK one!
And JACK, seriously? No big deal? EVERYTHING a public person does carries weight. Their position alone grants authority. Do you REALLY want a president that makes fun of a way "not " to be? Would you say no big deal if he made a KFC and watermellon joke? A beaner joke?
Personally, I like that Obama questions ideology, not people.

I'd expect nothing more from a proud, even boastful member of the Moron Church.
... What typo?

Gee, where is it written, either in the Bible or the Book of Mormons, that it's o.k. to hate? I don't remember Jesus EVER saying anything even close to that. All I ever learned is that Jesus taught us to love one another. As a matter of fact, it is a vital part of Christianity. Jesus said so. Yet they continue to ignore Him. Not wise. Did I expect anything different from Mitt? No. He succeeded in going down to the lowest of low, and pick on the only group of people who are still o.k. to hate...gays. In their minds, it is justified. This should scare the crap out of every gay man and woman. If this nut gets in, it will be hell for gays in America. It will be hell for a lot of people in America. This monster cannot win. He will bring this nation down. We have suffered enough at the hands of Rethuglicans...it's time WE take back our nation from these hateful idiots.

Bryce, that's your idea of a sense of humor? you're in serious need of help--in the form of remedial counseling for internalized homophobia.

Hitler had a sense of humor too...I'd rather vote for a serious President than a comedic bigot.

Hmmm, I didn't really hear him doing any type of voice. I think he just asked for a pink tie. But I'm still never ever going to vote for him.

I think any homosexual who would vote against Obama should take a gun to his or her head & pull the trigger, before voting that is. Just my opinion. Thank u very much.Oh that includes my hetro rethugliKan brother.

to be fair, a Mormon Sex-Scandal goes something like this: "I had a nasty thought and masturbated over it!!!!"

@Bierce
No gay man would equate wearing pink ties with being gay in the first place, so that scenario would never happen. It is sinister and you are a moron. And it's not a "gay voice" when it's a gay man talking, it's just a voice. You bigoted asshat.

Romney doesn't have a day job, aside from running for President. He has to rely on the $20 million he earns a year from capital gains. One thing he should give up is trying to be funny. He never brings it off.
