Miss Marple, It is so good to see you here.
First, the saying comes from a time of limited ammunition,
and where the reloading might take too many
minutes, even for a jouneyman in the militia.
The saying was the command from William Prescott,
at the Battle of Breeds Hill (Bunker Hill);
and Prescott's tongue specified "color rather than whites.
Second, such behavior in the fight for America
(SSDD?) hardly holds in the time of electrons and keyboards.
Second, Mr. Romney has answered nothing.
He never does. He FLEES. He HIDES.
He shouldn't.
He has his wife protect him. Even this week.
And he shouldn't have let her interrupt him if he wanted to be taken seriously.
FAST and FURIOUS [Romney is silent and hiding]
He should have been and be outspoken. Where is HE?
RomneyCARE/Obamacare [Romney is silent, on the defensive, and hiding]
He should EXPLAIN ... and RECANT Socialized Medicine and STATISM.
Miss Marple, the time for him to speak up is NOW
as the following cartoon truly does note;
a 'barometer' of this moment in time.
After spending months dodging the question, Republican presidential candidate and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney demanded Attorney General Eric Holders immediate resignation or failing that for President Barack Obama to fire him because of Operation Fast and Furious.
According to the Associated Press, Romney told reporters in New Hampshire Saturday that Holder has brought shame on the Justice Department through his handling of the Fast and Furious scandal.
You are simply not paying attention. Romney has indeed answered about F&F.
