On Jet Aircraft Construction

“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." (W.M. Romney)

I think what he means is why not depressurize the aircraft and deprive the aircraft of oxygen.

no O2 = no fire

I see what he might have been trying to say.....

Mitt is still a politician and I when politicians mess up.

His wife just got out of a very serious situatioin (a fire/smoke on any aircraft is nothing but VERY seriuos).. He's still nervous, coming down from the high of being worried for his wife, makes a bad joke..

And the classless Obamorons want to make fun of him for it???

Wonder what the reaction would have been if the roles were reversed and it was the first lady and Obama miscuing?? Of course chances are he'd have a teleprompter in front of him, and a creative writer doing the dirty work. "Don't look behind the CURTAIN!!"

They have to take what they can get. They'll chew on it like a dog with a bone until something else comes along. They aren't getting much though.
