BUT

here's the unedited version and Andrea Mitchell is taking a beating at Twitter over this:

Just go to Twitter and in the Search box put in @mitchellreports, even David Shuster said this:

I usually disagree w/ @DLoesch @michellemalkin @brentbozell. But their anger @mitchellreports on this is justified. Andrea, what the hell?

9. Great fodder for campaign ads, just like GHWB's barcode epiphany in '92

Somebody should find archived news station clips of all those '92 barcode ads and put them online in one convenient place. The copy for anti-Romney "out of touch" plutocrat ads has already been written--20 years ago.

33. This is all kinds of awesome.

I mean, I have no idea what WaWa (WaWa's?) is, we don't have it where I live, but the ...beat... and the looks on their faces when the Romney clip was over were absolutely priceless.

was after that dumbass advisor for Sanatorium started going on about female contraception being a woman putting "an aspirin between her knees".

well, to answer your first question:

To answer your second, you shouldn't -- just more crappy "editing" from your "friends" at MSNBC

Thanks, leftists for killing another good memory. First place I went on liberty in basic training was the nearest Wawa for a pack of smokes and real coffee. It was great. Now I get to see you intrude on it by blatantly lying about what a political opponent said and or did while claiming objectivity. I hope you all die in a fire.

I think its less that, and more trying to create the impression that Mitt never goes into convenience stores, because he is better than that - and out of touch with the common man. I'm glad Angrier Mitchell is getting called out on Twitter for her shenanigans.

Hey Dumbasses chortling over there...if you would leave the hive for 5 minutes and walk around outside the asylum, you would see what people are really saying. 

Mitt's point was that the government made some dude fill out a 33 page form to change his address.  But in the private sector, efficiency and speed reign. 

Bally, why don't you haul some twitter quotes over?  You're like our ambassador.

Karin, I'm not exaggerating, Twitter is exploding, I went to start dinner and came back a few minutes later and there were like 94 new Tweets to Andrea Mitchell, I can't keep up, and the funny thing is the Tweets are being serious, usually when the left steps in it the Tweets are funny, but people are genuinely angry about this, they're angry at the media's blatant cheerleading for Obama and Democrats, they're angry against NBC's blatant editing to fit their narrative.

I must be part of the out of touch 1% I have never heard of WaWa, and I have never ordered a sammich by pressing buttons on a screen.  :-)

They are desperate, so desperate that they don't even care when they get busted with creative editing, they get the message out and the moonbat base will still believe it even when it's shown to be out of context.

You also have to take into consideration that pushing the out of touch meme will backfire anyway, 0bama keeps having dinners with celeberties, hardly makes him just like us.

I had no idea what a WaWa is either. Regional chains are everywhere. And thanks to the creativity of the private sector there is unique and innovative companies spread out over many areas of this great country. We just got our first Sonic here a couple years ago. It was something new and a different ordering procedure. BFD  :tongue:

Just as a general FYI, Wawa is a convenience store chain started in PA in 1964. It's extremely successful and over the years has spread through eastern PA, southern NJ, all of Delaware, MD and VA and now has spread into parts of FL. They are known for great cheap coffee -- the 24 oz size is about $1.50 and you can blend varieties any way you want -- good sandwiches and other food made to order, free ATMs, the coldest and freshest dairy anywhere (it's patented) and, now with the Super Wawas, gas prices that never charge more for credit than for cash. They are also a family-run business.  In other words, they are an American success story, like thousands, that these DUmmies have no respect for.

Most people I know have their favorite Wawas they visit every day, usually, and everyone knows everyone else for the most part.  A description I once saw written here by someone was "I went down to get some coffee at my Wawa and wondered why all these people were in my kitchen!"  :-)

As of now not one single DUmbass has even hinted that the Mitchell version of the video is highly misleading. 

Like Karin said earlier these people really need to get out of the DUmp once in a while.  They bear a strong resemblance to a cult...in that they isolate themselves from the rest of the world and create their own reality.

In North Jersey you have jug handles, they look like owebuma's ears. And you have Lakehurst, site of the Hindenburg's last fated voyage. With any luck jug ears and hindenburg will result in a bing.

We have a chain very similar here in VA.  It's called "Sheetz".  Very similar layout, very similar format.  Order your "sub" (hoagie?) with the touch screen (some even have the screens outside at the gas pumps), go inside and pick it
up.

BTW, even the Postal Service doesn't require 33 pages of forms to change your mailing address.  It can be done online, or with a Form 3575, which is basically an oversized postcard.  It's free, including postage.
