“Does Anyone Really Going To Care That Romney Offended The British?”

You missed grammar class, I take it?

the State run media seems to care very much, treating it as a grave offense, speaking in solemn, gutteral tones about it.

Does anyone going to read a post with no content and a grammatically indecipherable title?

If the british were not offended when Obama gave them back the bust of Churchill or when he gave the Queen an iPad with his speaches on it, then they should not find what Romney said offensive at all.

As I understand it, the Brits had a private firm signed up to provide security. At the last minute they find that said firm can only provide 1/2 of the personnel required.

Romney has apparently noted this and expressed his concern. That concern is valid.

Good for him. The Brits screwed up and are scrambling to fill the gap with military/law enforcement personnel. That may work out. And it might not. And the stakes are high.

So is this a gaffe? I don’t think so.

Are the Brits upset? Of course. Nobody like to have their problems pointed out to them.

I doesn’t care. The Brits should need thicker skins.

The Licking Spoon thinks Romney is offending the British?

What about Michelle? She slapped Queen Elizabeth on the back, didn’t wear hosiery and wore a sundress and open toed shoes when she met with the Queen.

Obviously she didn’t get invited to The wedding.

The first story on ABC’s World “News” Tonight was about Romney offending the over-sensitive Brits by saying “They’re Not Ready.” The British had a hissy fit and so did ABC. Who cares.

Will we care? Of course not. But many Americans will, especially those he is trying to persuade. Here was yet another big chance for Romney to make his mark, this time on foreign policy. And, yet again, he comes away looking like a drooling, feckless buffoon.

This nomination foisted upon us is an unmitigated disaster. I say again ... a disaster. He is going to hurt down ticket races. I can not emphasize enough what a disaster he is. And as bad as Hussein is, it changes nothing about the fool that is Romney.

How on Earth could he screw this up? But I find that I say this weekly about this moron.

Good grief, whatever happened to the Brits having a “stiff upper lip?”.

First off - don’t ‘forward’ the lie. He ‘offended’ no one. He was asked a question - he repeated FACTS told to him BY THE BRITS.
That is not an offense...
The ruse here is the media twisting itself inside out to make it one and the brain-dead swallowing it and repeating it for them - playing into their hands..
Don’t be a dupe.
