Yes Michael he was right to say something. If you see something wrong, don’t you fell an obligation to say something?

I’ll pass on this poll because the question is based upon a fantasy. Willard implied no such thing.

Willard implied no such thing.

All I heard Mittens say was what the MSM were reporting the day before. I guess he shouldn't have smarted off to Brian Williams.

Correct. This is the MSM bailing out Obama with an invented gaffe. Even the intellectual stopped clock - Krauthammer - got in on the act.

Of course he is. Their press has been all over the security problems, why can't Romney make a remark?

There's one photo with him and PM Cameron, seated in matching chairs by a fireplace and it just looks "right."

Maybe we'll see such a scene repeated in the White House in the next four years.

I read in an article on Fox Sports yesterday that all of the dorm rooms where the brit athletes are staying are air conditioned while the rest of the dorms are not air conditioned.

A Brit says: Sorry, but that’s absolute crap.

I've read his remarks and that statement is not at all what the man said. I read the comments as saying he understands first hand how difficult it is to organize an Olympics and that the problems the British organizers have had, while "disconcerting", will be overcome. Compared to how the problems are being treated in the (admittedly vicious) British press and by the opposition in Parliament his comments were mild and not really critical.

Their Prime Minister went off the deep end in his reaction. That male bonding over a pair of hot dogs he had at a basketball game with Obama must have left a deep impression on his psyche. If Freud were alive he would probably see some symbolism there. It certainly makes me suspect the PM got a lot of pleasure out of his boyhood days in an all male Public School.

“A Brit says: Sorry, but that’s absolute crap.”

Just conveying what I read. However, I wouldn’t put it past you brits. :-)

Additionally, why should one believe you as opposed to the MSM? Do you believe that your information is more reliable than theirs? Why would one be inclined to believe an anonymous poster on a web forum?
