Mitt Romney’s Son Tagg Discusses Wanting to Punch President Obama

Audiences watching this week’s debate between President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney from home were unaware of the behind-the-scenes drama boiling up within eldest Romney son, Taggart (real name!).

Asked on the Bill LuMaye Show how it felt to hear President Obama call his father a liar (which he is), Tagg responded:

“Uh, you know, uh, well, jump out of your seat, and you want to rush down there to the debate stage and take a swing at him.”

“But you know you can’t do that because, well first because there’s a lot of Secret Service between you and him, but also because this is the nature of the process, they’re going to do everything they can do to try to make my dad into someone he’s not. We signed up for it. We’ve gotta kinda sit there and take our punches and then send them right back the other way.”

Right. Taggart Romney, who by the way is employed as an advisor to Mitt’s political campaign, was unable to beat up our president during a nationally televised debate because there were Secret Service agents in the way.

Ban this jackass from the final debate, please.

And I’m wracking my memory here trying to think of another time this has happened, but can you remember an advisor from a rival campaign ever talking about punching the president before?
