Romney Campaign Hiring Liars
According to its website, the Romney for President campaign is hiring staffers to create outlandish stories and preposterous allegations about President Obama, and then disseminate them through word-of-mouth and the blogosphere.
BOSTON (TheSkunk.org) — Mitt Romney is looking for a few good liars. According to its website, the Romney for President campaign is hiring staffers to create outlandish stories and preposterous allegations about President Obama, and then disseminate them through word-of-mouth and the blogosphere.
“We’re accepting applications from recent college graduates and those ready to graduate in the Spring,” said Thomas McCreary, human relations director for the campaign. “Although we prefer a background in journalism, anyone who can fabricate a good, solid untruth will be considered.”
McCreary said the campaign is looking for creative, out-of-the-box thinkers. “If an aspiring liar comes in and tells me Obama is a Muslim, I show him out the door, immediately,” he said. “ We want fresh, new and exciting falsehoods. Tell me Obama is a transsexual Muslim, who wants to paint the White House pink and spread sharia law, and now you’ve got my attention.”
The positions, as listed on Romney’s website, have titles such as Business Analyst, Content Coordinator, Copywriter, Designer, Interactive Designer, and Political Content Coordinator, “but essentially,” according to McCreary, “their only job description is to mislead the public by figuring out new and interesting ways to blame the President for 9/11 or to claim that citizens under the new healthcare law will be secretly implanted with genital warts.”
As an example, McCreary referenced his most recent hire, a senior from Liberty University who continually tweeted and re-tweeted “Obama eats his own feces,” until Fox News picked up on the story.
“That young man represents the future of America,” noted McCreary. “He has the courage to spread misinformation, and the determination to make it stick.”
“Everyone working for the campaign must undergo a lie-detector test,” he added, “and if they pass – if they keep telling the truth about everything — we say ‘no thank you,’ and kick them out the door.”
McCreary encourages job-seeking liars to apply for the Romney campaign positions online .
