You need to roll down the airplane window to breathe....

WTF!! LMAO




Mitt Romney, a 65-year-old man with two advanced degrees, has no idea why they don't let you open airplane windows mid-flight, according to his own remarks at a fund-raiser in Beverly Hills on Saturday:

Romney’s wife, Ann, was in attendance, and the candidate spoke of the concern he had for her when her plane had to make an emergency landing Friday en route to Santa Monica because of an electrical malfunction.
“I appreciate the fact that she is on the ground, safe and sound. And I don’t think she knows just how worried some of us were,” Romney said. “When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly, there’s no — and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem."

To answer Romney: Airplane cabins are pressurized to allow people to, you know, breathe and stay conscious and such at high altitudes — things that are important for everyone who isn't an advanced robot covered in a highly convincing outer layer of humanesque skin and facial features.

Ahahah. I posted this on FB earlier. THIS is the man I want running my country.

For being someone with advanced degrees, why in the smurf is he so damn dumb? He's painfully stupid.

>_>

I am , too, actually. I haven't flown since I was 6, and I honestly can say I don't look forward to it again.

 

Eh I'm anti-Romney and I think he's an idiot, but we all have dumbass moments. A few months ago I asked my friend what plants sunflower seeds come from

He OWNS a plane......also, if you are going to open your mouth on TV, you should probably stop and think for a second, especially if you are trying to convince people that you are a good candidate to be the president of their country.

I can't even imagine. I moved out of state with my son when he was like 13 - 15 months old and that was in a CAR and it was horrible.

No thanks! Lol - I plan to fly back to NY for my sisters wedding in a year or so and I am still debating if I will end up bringing any kids with me - simply because of the plane ride.

I wasn't going to bring DD but my sister begged me for her wedding

I like how every article I've read this story on has to explain the answer at the end of the story.

If it was such a monumentally stupid thing to say, why are they having to explain why it's dumb to their readers?
