A Quickie: Goppers

By Zamboni

We cats have invented a new word for whoppers, tall tales and outright lies told by members of the GOP: "Goppers."

We've heard quite a few Goppers over the years, but here are some recent standouts.

"I've got a very effective campaign. It's doing a very good job. It doesn't need a turnaround." —Willard Mitt Romney

"[Romney] never said he didn't care about [the 47 percent], that he wasn't concerned about them." —Bay Buchanan

"That... was a political analysis at a fundraiser... not a governing philosophy." —Kelly Ayotte

"It is time for all Americans to realize... how lucky we are to have someone with Mitt's qualifications and experience and know-how to be able to have the opportunity to run this country." —Ann Romney

"I had a feeling there would be a mixed reaction." —Paul Ryan (after getting lustily booed by the AARP)

"I believe the state of [my] campaign is looking better and better." —Todd Akin

"I think we had a good week last week." —RNC Chair Rancid Pieface
