Romney demonstrates foreign policy incompetence

Posted on September 12, 2012 by bitemaster

When rioters attacked the US embassy in Egypt, embassy officials said, “We like Islam and the Prophet. Really!” When Mitt Romney heard that, he went apeshit:

“I’m outraged by the attacks on American diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt and by the death of an American consulate worker in Benghazi, [Ed note: it wasn’t a consulate worker, but the Ambassador]” Romney said. “It’s disgraceful that the Obama Administration’s first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks.”

Mitt Romney: the greatest danger to America’s security today.

If Obama is for it, Mitt Romney is against it

“It isn’t fair to say Mitt Romney doesn’t have a position on Afghanistan,” Kerry said. “He has every position. He was against setting a date for withdrawal — then he said it was right — and then he left the impression that maybe it was wrong to leave this soon. He said it was ‘tragic’ to leave Iraq, and then he said it was fine. He said we should’ve intervened in Libya sooner. Then he ran down a hallway to run away from the reporters asking questions. Then he said the intervention was too aggressive. Then he said the world was a ‘better place’ because the intervention succeeded. Talk about being for it before you were against it!”

Posted on September 6, 2012 by bitemaster

Now that Romney has become the official Republican candidate for President, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is claiming he was the first governor to endorse Mitt Romney. Ha! He was beaten to the punch by Nebraska Gov. Dave Heineman and Idaho Gov. Butch Otter — by about four months.

Texans join uprising against RNC hegemony

Posted on August 27, 2012 by bitemaster

“Republicans from Texas are leading a mutiny at their national nominating convention in Tampa and fighting proposed rule changes that they say amount to a power grab by entrenched GOP operatives at the expense of grassroots activism.

“The issue could explode in a floor fight Tuesday, just after Republican leaders open the first full day of the convention and turn to consider party rules. Although the process is usually a quiet one, the dispute over the new delegate selection process proposal advanced by Mitt Romney supporters threatens to shine a spotlight on the schism.”

Posted on August 16, 2012 by bitemaster

‘Last night, newly ensconced Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan sat down for his first solo interview with Fox News’ Brit Hume and let slip an admission about Mitt Romney’s budget plan — an admission that’s receiving surprisingly little press attention. Asked by Hume when the Romney plan would balance the budget, Ryan said he didn’t know because “we haven’t run the numbers on that specific plan.”‘
