Mitt in Tights

Obama today coined a new phrase for Romney's tax plan, after a new study showed it would not only lower taxes on the rich but also (despite its claims) take money from the middle-class: “It’s like Robin Hood in reverse – it’s Romney Hood,” Obama told supporters at a fund-raiser in Stamford, Conn. before heading to celeb funder in Westport.  (Perhaps he had just viewed the vintage Monty Python skit with the refair, "He steals from the poor and gives to the rich--stupid bitch." (h/t Larry Bellinger)

There he hailed hosts Anne Hathaway and Aaron Sorkin and Harvey Weinstein.  Of Sorkin, the president said he "writes the way every Democrat in Washington wished they spoke."  Other guests: Joanne Woodward, Jerry Springer, Anna Wintour.
