    Better Amercia? Mitt Romney iPhone app misspells 'America'

    White House hopeful Mitt Romney has meticulously spelt out his vision for a better America while on the campaign trail this year. But his new mobile app did not feature the same levels of preparation.

    The "With Mitt" application for the iPhone allows users to express support for the recently anointed Republican flag-bearer by personalising a photo with an overlaid Romney slogan. The problem is, one of the slogans has a howler of a spelling mistake: "A Better Amercia."

    Members of the proofreading public recently made the discovery and it went viral on microblogging site Twitter late on Tuesday, with people mockingly tweeting photos showing the "Amercia" message.

    "Some poor app designer is getting strapped in a cage on the top of a car and driven across country tonight. #amercia," one user tweeted, in a reference to Romney's hard-to-live-down decision years ago to strap the family dog in its carrier on the roof of the car during a vacation.

    On Wednesday, the app, promoted by official campaign website mittromney.com, had yet to be corrected, and new downloads contained the spelling error.

    "Mistakes happen," Romney campaign spokeswoman Andrea Saul said on MSNBC.

    Nothing could be worse for the America 99% than a Gecko Exec and a Repug Congress, SCOTUS already an extreme right wing fringe.

    eg: see how how Repug states are ing over their 99%

    Amercia is the name of the private corporation he plans to rename America when he wins the election. He'll bleed it dry and sell it China

    nah, Gecko would be much worse, simply because the 99% is already so much further down the slipper slope to that 1% has been greasing for decades.
