Mitt Romney Celebrates ‘White Independence Day’ in Style

Chris Rock came under fire for wishing Americans a ‘Happy White Peoples Independence Day‘ via twitter on the Fourth of July.

While President Barack Obama called the comment “offensive” and “over the top,” his political rival actually thanked the comedian for the reminder.

Mitt Romney, who had been busy campaigning in upstate New York that morning, immediately jumped in his private jet and headed to the Hamptons.

“If I didn’t follow Chris Rock’s twitter feed so closely, I would’ve missed my favorite holiday,” the 65-year old Republican told OMGG.com. “Ann and I had a lovely brunch at Woodfield Country Club before joining the Winklevoss twins for some tennis.”
