So . . . why are the Brits trying to help Obama, exactly?
Although I agree that the Brits, including Bore-us Johnson, overreacted mightily to Romney’s comment about being “concerned” about what he’d read re: private security for the Olympics,
Romney and his team need to STFU about domestic British concerns. Just stick to happy crappy talk about the importance of UK- USA relations, smile and wave.
Honestly, glad he didnt apologize. Everyone freakin apologizes for freakin everything now.
Well he IS an eccentric odd fellow. Most of Britain knows it.
Ok, this has officially entered “The Silly Zone.”
for the record- the Brits ragged on Johnson for the way he showed up at the flag handover ceremony at the close of the 2008 games:
“Britons proud of their athletes’ achievements have vented their frustrations at being left “the laughing stock of the world” by the show, which featured rocker Jimmy Page, X-Factor winner Leona Lewis and footballer David Beckham.

The routine, which also included a performance by urban dance troupe ZooNation and the use of a red London bus, was meant to showcase the capital as the new host city of the Games.
But many have objected to its informality - and the scruffy state of Mayor Boris Johnson waving the flag - compared to the neat choreography of the Chinese display.
No matter what continent the future Emperor is on,
he must be defended.
By his staff.
By women.
By his sons.
The issues of the day NEVER matter, it is the insult
to the Inevitable Emperor that must be addressed.
So now, Mr. RomneyCARE in a dumb moment
smears England, and INSTEAD of apologizing,
Mr. RomneyCARE (of DeathPANEL fame)
DOUBLES DOWN.
Shameless. Or was that Seamus.
Isn’t Boris Johnson the Commy Symp Mayor who was on the take from Saddam Hussein when the UN was trying to curtail his WMD? I should think that any criticism from him would raise Romney’s stock!
btw: from the USA Today live blog of the opening ceremonies, happening now;
“”MAYBE MITT WAS ON TO SOMETHING” (8:06 p.m. London/3:06 p.m. ET): At London’s historic Trafalgar Square, crowds gathered more than an hour before opening ceremonies only to be told that there would be no big screen to view the show as previously advertised, reports USA TODAY’s Kevin Johnson. Money quote, from fan Leela Marshall:”
If I recall correctly I believe Johnson is a communist. If so that explains the support for Obama...
Why exactly is Mittens even prolonging this meaningless tussle? Are the British going to elect him?
Maybe Romney was right. http://www.itv.com/news/west/update/2012-07-27/breaking-fire-at-weymouth-pavilion/
It is a funny tiff in any case.
Guess the Romney campaign wanted to out who it was giving the quotes blasting Romney in London. Works for me. The Romney outfit is not a wimp operation.
So he’s biased toward Barry. Does he vote in America?
Link is NG. Link doesn’t work even from the home page.
Leftist Brits can bugger off - its not their election, and not their president.
It is nice to see that Boris can pull his head out of his a$$ long enough to take a breath and say something stupid.
How stupid do you have to be to complain about a London mayor... It makes you look very small as a candidate.
