Clueless Republican

Mitt Romney slams Hillary Clinton’s call for ‘mass incarceration’ to end.

In an interview with Fox News that aired Monday, the GOP former presidential candidate questioned Clinton’s recent call to end the “mass incarceration that we practice.” Clinton, the Democratic front-runner in 2016, made the comment in a wide-ranging criminal justice speech last Wednesday.

“What is she referring to?” Romney asked. “We don’t have mass incarcerations in America.”

Rand Paul has been talking about mass incarceration for quite some time. But Romney has no clue. Rand has also been discussing the racism of the drug war. Romney is even more clueless.

In 2012 I couldn’t stand Obama. And Romney was in some ways worse. I voted for the Libertarian. Not that it mattered. Except to me.

If the Republicans run another Prohibitionist in ’16 I’m voting Libertarian. Again.

    The Dems will probably run one, too. :/

    I’ve got some real serious disagreements on national defense with the (large L) Libertarians. About the only thing that will get me to vote Libertarian again is Clinton vs Bush. (I actually don’t hate either – BUT – I DO hate dynasties.)

    Now that Gov. Romney knows that some of us think there is a mass incarceration problem in the US and that we have a plan to end it, perhaps Gov. Romney will eventually have his own “come to Jesus” moment on this issue much like Dr. Sanjay Gupta did with medical cannabis. Then after he has joined us, he too can claim to be on the side of goodness and niceness.

    What is “mass incarceration”? Is it simply incarcerating a lot of individual people? Or is incarcerating groups of people en masse?
