I dub thee LORD MITTENS?

I just heard an idiotic American pundit on #CNN say "In Britain, when you lose the election, you can go to the House of Lords".
His point was that poor Mitt Romney would be treated soooo much more kindly in the U.K. after losing, that he would perhaps even be dubbed a Lord.
He was insinuating that Barack Obama was trampling on tradition for not offering Mitt Romney a cabinet spot, or some other reward.
He was implying that the politician who lost after railing about people looking for handouts should get a handout, just like he would get in Britain.
What do my British friends think about that ridiculous assertion?
Let's get this straight right now, America, before this fool who the fools at CNN pay for his opinion is allowed to spread this foolishness further…
The House of Lords (HOL) is a farcical undemocratic body that should be abolished.
It is filled with doddering old white males who INHERITED their title.
NOBODY should be looking to emulate the HOL, ESPECIALLY so-called Small-Government-Republicans.
The Queen can grant you the title of Lord, but only after you've gotten the Order of the British Empire (OBE), and then been knighted.
To give you an example, Paul McCartney, who is loved worldwide, has been knighted...
...Mitt Romney is no Paul McCartney.
There are NO political appointments to the HOL, after elections or otherwise.
Mitt Romney would no more be offered a seat at the table in Britain than he will be offered a plum position as a "gift" from President Obama.
Anyone who says otherwise has something in common with Mitt Romney and the idiot on CNN...
....the ability to talk out of their ass.
