re: #169 MittDoesNotCompute

Quoth the Wiki:

People named Taggart

Taggart Romney, an American businessman, son of Mitt Romney
Taggart (surname), definition of the surname and list of people with the surname

Fictional people

Dagny Taggart, a character in Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged
James Taggart (Atlas Shrugged), a character in Atlas Shrugged
James “Paladin” Taggart, fictional character in the Wing Commander computer games
Ian Taggart, an antagonist in Prototype (video game)
Jim Taggart, a character in the TV series Taggart
Jim Taggart (Eureka), character in American science fiction drama Eureka
Samantha Taggart, character in the American drama ER
Sergeant Taggart, character in Beverly Hills Cop and Beverly Hills Cop 2
Taggart, character in the American movie Blazing Saddles
Flynn Taggart, main protagonist of the Doom series of novels.

Could just be me, but I somehow don’t think that Tagg Romney was named after Slim Pickens’ character in Blazing Saddles.

Just a hunch…

Didn’t know there was a Taggart in AS. I didn’t mean to imply I thought there was a coincidence. In fact, I think Tagg Romney was born before the movie even came out. He’s 40 I believe.
