Wait, is this for real?:

FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. – Hours after General Motors announced that it earned its highest profit in its storied history last year, Mitt Romney said he is “delighted” at its success and took credit for the managed bankruptcy that helped to rescue the struggling corporation, saying he “recommended [it] from the very beginning.”

“I love the businesses of this state, I love the auto industry. I want to see it thrive and grow,” said Romney, speaking at a luncheon at the Greater Farmington-Livonia Chamber of Commerce. “I’m glad it went through a managed bankruptcy process, which I recommended from the very beginning, to shed unnecessary costs and get its footing again. I’m delighted it’s profitable.”

Does Romney actually think people are going to believe this crap, what the hell? I mean, this has to be the most craven, outright lying, triple lutz of a flip flop in US political history. This is why people hate the man, it’s impossible to believe a word he says.
