Chameleon

I have been trying to think of why Mitt Romney bothers me, and last night, I thought of the word... the description...

CHAMELEON.

1: any of a family (Chamaeleontidae) of chiefly arboreal Old World lizards with prehensile tail, independently movable eyeballs, and unusual ability to change the color of the skin
2 a: a person given to often expedient or facile change in ideas or character b: one that is subject to quick or frequent change especially in appearance

From another source:
snip... 1.....It is remarkable for its ability to change the color of its skin to blend with its surroundings.
    Note: Its color changes more or less with the color of the
           objects about it, or with its temper when disturbed. In
           a cool, dark place it is nearly white, or grayish; on
           admitting the light, it changes to brown, bottle-green,
           or blood red, of various shades, and more or less
           mottled in arrangment.
        2. a person who changes opinions, ideas, or behavior to suit
        the prevailing social climate; an opportunist.
        [PJC]

chameleon
      n 1: a changeable or inconstant person


He seems to be whatever he needs to be in order to accomplish what he wants to, regardless of what he was a short time before.
He seems to use words that sound good to others, but are not necessarily what that other may be thinking he means.

He changes with the political climate, yet points to others as the 'cause'. He acts a certain way, then accuses others of doing what he just did. He likes to take the focus off of himself by pointing out others faults, including demanding apologies for 'offenses' of others when they point out HIS weaknesses, in response to his own words.

I don't get the impression that he is honest. I don't believe him any more than I believe Rudy. To me, it is open mouth, out comes empty promises.

Chameleon. Pro-Choice then pro-life...only one example, but there are others.

You know the others that have always seemed that way to me are the Clintons. I just can't believe them, either.

God bless!
