I don’t think Romney should get them anyway until he is President. McCain was fine as he was already a Senator on the Arms Service Committee. Romney is a private citizen not even in government.
Here’s an Obama briefing:
“I think it breaks a little to the left”
Well, O doesnt appear to attend the briefings...
The thought occurred to me, that during a crisis like this during an election, the “Presidential” thing to do is to summon the nominee to the White House for a briefing on the situation and coordinate a common response from both candidates, to take the politics out of it. But of course, that thought would have never occurred to Obama.
Maybe Obama doesn’t get security briefings because he is a security risk. Between the leaks and his questionable associations it might havebeen decided to take him out of the loop for the good of the country.
This is ridiculous! Romney has been the presumptive nominee since LAST SPRING. Romney should have been getting them at least since then.
I know big “O” hates Romney, is that the reason?
So the Obama Administration is slow to get its act together to give Romney briefings and the story is spun to look like Romney isn’t interested in getting briefings. And of course, the media spins it this way to protect Obama from the charge that he ignores and isn’t interested in his own briefings. These media tools have turned into a full-blown wing of the DNC.
Did candidate 0bama get National Security Briefings in 2008?
