Oh, Mitt. This feels almost too easy. First you launched that self-promoting iPhone app that misspelled America. AMERICA! The country you’re trying to convince us to let you run. I can understand a typo—but good god, double-check the important shit, man.

And, now, you have a new Facebook cover photo (as of this afternoon) that very clearly and objectively breaks one of the four simple rules for what a cover photo may not contain.

• Price or purchase information, such as “40% off” or “Download it at our website”

• Contact information, such as web address, email, mailing address or other information intended for your Page’s About section

• References to user interface elements, such as Like or Share, or any other Facebook site features

• Calls to action, such as “Get it now” or “Tell your friends”

Tsk, tsk. No one trusts a virgin who can’t drive rule breaker who can’t spell A-M-E-R-I-C-A.[Thanks, @MsLaurenRae]
