Talk Like a Pirate Day 2012

In honor of Talk Like a Pirate Day, I thought I'd use the English-to-Pirate translator on an scurvy dog bent on pillaging Americans, Mitt Romney. Here's some of his recent scurrilous remarks, rendered into pirate via one of the English-to-pirate translators:

There be forty-seven percent o' t' people who will vote for t' president no matter what. All starboard, thar be forty-seven percent who be with him, who be dependent upon government, who believe that they be victims, who believe t' government has a responsibility t' care for them, who believe that they be entitled t' health care, t' food, t' housin', t' you-name-it. That that’s an entitlement. And t' government should give it t' them. And they will vote for this president no matter what...

Me job be not t' worry about those people. I'll never convince 'em they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives. Let 'em rot! Gimme some more tax cuts! Arr, ha-harr!
 

Update: The Onion has a good related piece.
