Mitt Romney denounces anti-Muslim film

NEW YORK--Mitt Romney denounced an anti-Muslim film that is stirring unrest in the Middle East, even as he stood by his condemnation of the U.S. Embassy in Cairo for its implied denunciation of the film.

Speaking to George Stephanopoulous of ABC's “Good Morning America,” Romney said he still believed it was "inappropriate" for the embassy to put out the statement, issued as anger rose in Egypt on Sept. 11 over a film that ridiculed the Muslim prophet Muhammad. He said the embassy should have taken it down after protesters breached the embassy grounds. The same day, attackers in Libya stormed a U.S. consulate and killed four foreign service officers, including the ambassador, Christopher Stevens.

And right on cue, people who don’t realize Romney is WAY better than the Commie Socialist POS DESTROYING this country...would rather have Obama continue his destruction than try ANYTHING to save America.

"They have the right to do that, but it’s not right to do things that are of the nature of what was done by, apparently this film."

That effectively validates the Muslim rationale for violence. No need for them to be introspective when our leaders have said that they understand their anger.

Public exposure is against the Law....this is free speech we're talking here.

Not in San Francisco. But thank you for playing...

Can we please one of these elections get a candidate who doesn’t suck?

No, the party's plan to peel off voters from the Democrats is to put up a candidate who walks and talks just like a Democrat. Because if they like Obama, they'll surely vote for our Obama clone candidate too, right?

Lets end the First Amendment....Get rid of it, we must praise our Muslim friends!!
THAT, is the whole point of these protests....it isn't about some stupid lame movie, that nobody actually watched. More Than a Movie: Experts Claim Real Reason for U.S. Embassy Attacks Is Much More Sinister

I have never seen anything like this election. Freedom of speech is not being fought for here in our own country by our own leaders.

Everyday people critique Christian views. Question God to science. Just open their mouth; there they are to shout you down but

no one is supposed to say anything about the enemy; the terror groups that are closing in. I said days ago, the pastor seemed a bit odd ( maybe because I think this because he's brave and putting his life on the line/I am not putting down his rights)..He has a RIGHT to speak like you or I. The leaders can blame this violence on a film and a pastor but the cause is much deeper.

He could have made it a teachable moment on the Constitution and free speech.

I listened to local top of the hour news, and the guy doing the reporting said he has not met anyone yet who has seen it, and some have never even heard of it.
These thugs are not burning the American flag, and obama puppets because they are mad about a movie.

All of you telling us to be quiet are making society move further in the direction of political correctness and making people here as well as abroad to not offend radicalism. We are moving in that direction. It is a violent murderous actions that we see. God does not promote hate. Romney could have said that vs. the other PC remarks.

Apparently--doesn't he know

And he should have added that the Christian religion has come under ridicule and attack in the USA and there are no riots
