Mitt Romney actually said...

"We should not be financing Gain-of-Function research."

"If we don't like the taxes companies are paying, then let's be honest about it and change the federal law."

"When I was serving as Governor of Massachusetts, I would hear occasionally some stories that gave me some concern."

"Astonishing. I'm delighted that we're talking about things related to our deficit. We should have been doing this for a long time and I appreciate the fact that we are."
