Here's an exercise for someone who wants to watch dozens if not hundreds of hours of videotape - review Mitt Romney speeches and track what he is saying around the time when he smacks his lips....I think it might be correlated around his biggest lies!
I was listening in the car last week when MSNBC broadcast Mitt's speech to the VFW(?) mid afternoon live from the event. May be it was the fact that I only heard rather than had a full multimedia experience of the speech but after a few minutes it seemed all I heard were a series of smacks and pops as he labored through his attacks on President Obama.
At the time I didn't give it much thought beyond thinking what a smug bast@rd and wondering aloud whether he had a mild form of Tourette's Syndrome.
Fast forward a week....Hardball? rebroadcast on satellite radio highlighting some of Mitt's more recent porkers and lo and behold...... smacking, popping galore! Maybe all the red meat he was serving up to his base had him licking his lips or the effort to bite back the truth was causing neck strain but for me the lying stood out like a tic punctuated sore thumb!
Maybe we have the makings of a great drinking game......I'll let you be the judge!
