Mitt Romney is a good liar. But not even he could sell the bull he tried to spew last night.
Mitt Romney
yesterday, denying he will pursue legislation to restrict abortion:
There’s no legislation with regards to abortion that I’m familiar with that would become part of my agenda.
That was of course bullshit, and his campaign
admitted as much within two hours.
And now the candidate himself has conceded he was wrong:
Per pool, Romney says he'd "immediately remove funding for Planned Parenthood" as prez, excluding it from his budget.

So either Mitt is acknowledging his legislative agenda on abortion will begin on day one ... or he doesn't realize that presidents aren't dictators and doing something like cutting off Planned Parenthood would require an act of Congress. You know, legislation.
