As Romney Finishes Visit to Polish Tomb of Unknown Soldier, Press Screams, "What About Your Gaffes?"
Tuesday, July 31, 2012 | Kristinn

Reporters accompanying presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney yelled questions at Romney about his so-called mistakes and gaffes on his foreign trip as the candidate left the Polish Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Warsaw today.

The barrage prompted one of Romney's press aides, Rick Gorka, to lose his cool at reporters. Of course, those reporters are making the aide's profanity the story and not their own incredible rudeness.

A transcript of the incident via CNN's Jim Acosta in Warsaw:

CNN: "Governor Romney are you concerned about some of the mishaps of your trip?

NYT: "Governor Romney do you have a statement for the Palestinians?

Washington Post: "What about your gaffes?

NYT: "Governor Romney do you feel that your gaffes have overshadowed your foreign trip?"

CNN: "Governor Romney just a few questions sir, you haven't taken but three questions on this trip from the press!

Gorka: "Show some respect"

NYT: "We haven't had another chance to ask a question..."

Gorka: "Kiss my ass. This is a Holy site for the Polish people. Show some respect."

Acosta added: Moments later, Gorka told Jonathan Martin, a reporter for Politico, to "shove it." About a half-hour later, the aide called reporters to apologize.

The news media would be crucified if they treated Barack Obama this way (they never would, of course.) They should be crucified for their infantile, insulting behavior.

Seems you think that's a good thing as it's on your diseased mittbot mind.

Nice of you to expose yourself to the www - is this your coming out party?

TennNanna projecting her bigoted views on Romney

Wow! bigoted views? What part of TRUTH IS SO REPELLANT to you that you don't know IT!

It’s you TN who is the hater here, and you claim to be a Christian.

Here we have another one who sees HATE when TRUTH is spoken. STAY AWAY from Chick Fil A - you guys are all alike!

GUESS WHAT - CHRISTIANS HATE EVIL - something that never entered your mind and you KNOW NOTHING about Christianity. You think - you can't hate and be a Christian !LOL!!! Evil is all around and we will call it out and expose ALL THE TIME to the BLIND.

who can’t stand that a patriotic American who is running for president just happens to be mormon.

WORDS of a diseased mind!! Romney's a POS and all his 'accomplishments' are ANTI-AMERICAN! Mormonism is a CULT! Romney is godless creature and a KNOWN LIAR! Satan is the father of liars.

IWONDR - wonder about what? That you will open your mouth and expose yourself?

TennNanna projecting her bigoted views on Romney, just as secular, progressive humanists do on conservatives. It’s you TN who is the hater here, and you claim to be a Christian.

everyone knows TNanna and company shill for BO because it’s TN & co. who can’t stand that a patriotic American who is running for president just happens to be mormon. TN prefers the “christian”-only-when-it’s-convenient BO to remain our leader.

*********************************

Imho, the above post is unacceptably personal, unsupported and needlessly rude.

"everyone knows"? Are you seriously offering this as proof of anything?

LOL, I’m not pumping anyone but from the tone of your hyper freaked out posts I am convinced you need an adjustment in your meds.

I fear you may be a danger to yourself and worse to others. I will pray for you to get well.

Bain Capitol and the 80% success rate it acheived is anti American?

What “America” is it you speak of, perhaps one existing in an alternative universe?

Read this again, my friend and heed my advice.

Speak to companies he closed down or took over for a PROFIT FOR HIM, not America!

Now that is romney's area with his mormon beliefs. You think you are slurring me - you JUST DID IT to him/and his beliefs - the space cadet who you choose to lead you!

Take your Romney pump some where else - it doesn't work as we already KNOW his accomplishments are ANTI AMERICAN!

Game up, jughead! YOU FAIL BIG TIME!

WORDS of a liberal when they having nothing else and liberalism where drugs are the answer to everything.

"FEAR" is always the response from the weak wusses and then they go into Alinsky tactics and too dumb to know it doesn't work on conservatives. You would have to be one to know that.

It’s interesting how you tell yourself stories about people you know nothing about. You’re off on every point, but it somehow seems to give you comfort to picture someone with a different thought than yours as the boogie man. Whatever gets you through the night. More of the same from the same old posse. I just don’t care.

Sure you don't - you had to have your say to get you through the night. So far you are on zero with credibility and I'm sure you don't care about that as it goes w/the romney territory.
