Hitler liked dogs.
This was a really stupid remark on Romney’s part. I mean really stupid.
Ping
He’s either a fool or an idiot, but I fear he’s both.
Correct. (That they set up shop there is another matter)
And they built their support there by having done so,”
Correct. Without having built local support they would have no cover or other advantages you derive from a sympathetic population.
Romney said. “That kind of diplomacy is something that would help America become stronger around the world and help people understand that our interest is an interest towards modernity and goodness and freedom for all people in the world.”
Where he steps in it is by using the term “diplomacy”. If he had said that these actions are what allow hostile groups to develop bases of support and frankly if America was to take more of these steps then people would have a better alternative to turn to and see our commitment to building better relationships and promoting freedom and better standards of living around the world. We would also be denying terrorist organizations a major source of support.
Does anyone have that old Waffle House pic of Kerry moving left and right with this finger in his nose? If I had photo-shop I’d insert Romney into it.
>> Romney said. “That kind of diplomacy is something that would help America become stronger around the world ...
Shameful comments. Prior to this incident, I wouldn’t have ruled out a vote for Romney. That’s certainly not the case now. To cite the deeds of thugs as emblematic gestures the United States should follow is simply ludicrous. The comments are unacceptable and retraction is pointless.
Here’s a euphamism for Romney’s retraction:
Instead of saying “That dog won’t bark”, lets just say that
“That dog won’t get strapped to the station wagon roof.”
It is easy to be generous with others peoples money.
Do *not* vote for Rudy Mc-Romney
They can't beat Hillary anyway.
So, then, I take that comment to mean he approves of my Senator?
I stand by my statement he’s a conservative poseur, this is further proof, and I will not support him anymore then I support Patty.
“Romney had made the comparison in explaining why he would expand on President Bush’s AIDS program in Africa, widely regarded as earning goodwill.”

This headline is misleading, and the organization slamming Romney for his original statement are a bunch of idiots who can't read.
Oh yeah, no better way to win hearts and minds than by blowing everything up and threatening everybody’s lives.
It is one thing to trip over your tougue but for Mitt
to make the original comments re Hezbollah and then
spin away from it again shows he is not ready for prime time.
I don’t care how many MBAs or business knowledge Mitt has,
we are at war and and need a person with Military and National Security experience and background.
Romney was for Hezbollah before he was against them.
Mitt is obviously NOT referring to the indoctrination programs implemented by Hezbolla along with their humanitarian aid, as this twisted article would lead people to believe.
The United States is already extending humanitarian aid all over the world. Many people feel our government has OVEREXTENDED itself, in this regard on the taxpayers dime, (I am one of them) and won't support more such measures.
This is NOT a cornerstone of any of Romney's policy proposals, and hardly disqualifies him from the presidency. Too many conservatives are far too quick to point the finger and pile on.
Holy Shiite. He’s as wet behind the ears as B. Hussein Obama
