Mitt Romney Thinks It’d be Neat if You Could Open Up Plane Windows

Who doesn’t want to pop those suckers open when you’re flying at 38,000 feet, the temperature outside is -100 degrees and the cabin is too damn pressurized?

The presidential hopeful, speaking about his wife’s recent plane scare, shared a few thoughts on how to make air travel more fun … and lethal.

“I appreciate the fact that she is on the ground, safe and sound. And I don’t think she knows just how worried some of us were,” Romney said. “When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly, there’s no — and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem. So it’s very dangerous. And she was choking and rubbing her eyes. Fortunately, there was enough oxygen for the pilot and copilot to make a safe landing in Denver. But she’s safe and sound.”

I smell a hot-button issue.
