Someone give this man a drink and tell him to freaking relax and use 5lbs less of that super glue he uses for hair jell!

I mean really! A man so stiff he's pissing off the English?
REALLY!

Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools!

And this was suppose to be the easy part for him. All he had to do in London was look presidential and hop on the Olympic bandwagon. If he can't even handle our closest allies , how can he handle China?

That boy could fuck up a wet dream!
What is wrong with him?

Flys to the EU in his own private jet, to watch his wife's horse do a little dancing, of which he will write off the aircraft, the horse and his food as a business expense and then he wants me to relate to him?

How STUPID does he think I am?

More importantly HOW STUPID ARE PEOPLE WHO THINK THAT THIS GUY IS "NORMAL"

His wife's horse makes it all the way to the Olympics and he's too big of a dick to be at her side for the competition.

Yeah, what would Romney know about running the Olympics? What an idiot.

That not the question. The question was how on his first trip abroad did he manage to piss off the whole country of England in only 1 day?

Not very "presidential".

What's not very Presidential is pandering to groups so they will like you.

Please show me where he "pissed off the entire country".

His fans can say what they like, but they'd be ignorant to think that this hasn't shown that he has no diplomatic skills.

Pandering? You mean being diplomatic? Kind of a crucial skill to have as a president. Unless your big plan is to piss every country off and then act cocky about it like you don't need them. Sounds like a good way to destroy a country. I doubt anyone is stupid enough to think that America will be a better place without good relations with other countries.

All he had to do was say some positive things about the Olympics, he couldn't even do that. And I know lots of republicans in the U.S who are shocked at how he handled this and now question his abilities as a president.

If you want to go to war with the world, he may be a good option. But if you're looking for someone who has the basic ability to think before he speaks, clearly he is not the right person for the job.

There are 12 year old children who could have known how to handle the questions he was given and known that the statements made would backfire both on him and his presidential campaign.

The funniest part, is that he was the best out of the GOP line-up.

The GOP is joke. I mean what happened to it, while I don't agree with many of the stances of the GOP, I can still find some merit in some of the old candidates. But now it's merely a circus and having to choose between a chimp and a clown.

Teddy Roosevelt was an example of a pretty good GOP president, he at least used his brain and had wise ideas, while some of his views were flawed he was better than all the GOP candidates of the past 10 years combined.

Seems he does not understand public and private persona's. Publically, all Brits (myself included) will tell you that we are fully ready for the olympics, privately, over a beer, we are all mortified and seriously embarressed by the different union's attempts to embarress our government by calling strikes during this showpiece. And yes, the unions have stated that they want to embarress the conservative government. Not nice! As for the meeting with the heads of MI5/6, just the colonialists still (trying to) manipulating foreign policy in order to try and extend western democracy for another few years until the world goes to hell in a handbasket due to the collapse of the financial systems because of greed!

Puh-leeeeze! Romney was specifically asked about his thoughts about the security issues which, splashed all over the news internationally, are no big secret. He did not "raise the issue" of security failures. His response was simply that it was "disconcerting". It is the British immigration and customs union workers who have threatened to strike on the eve of the games. It is the British security contractor that failed to meet its personnel obligations and required the military to step in and fill the gaps. Yes, it is "disconcerting" ...at the very least. By their feigned indignation and ridiculous, childish responses to Romney's comments, those who publicly and vocally take offense are unwittingly and unnecessarily raising the bar for security at the games.

You far left-wingers really are amusing with your emotional indignation over nearly everything. At least he didn't give teh PM DVD's of his speeches in a format that can't even be played in the UK.

Where did they put the bust of Churchill?

Didn't hear any outrage from the usuall suspects about these brilliant Diplomatic gestures.

Now this is something that will piss off an entire country.

Looks like Romney was right.

I know! The next time a president honors US veterans, firefighters or rescue workers I expect a strongly worded condemnation from you.

You might want to look up the definition of pandering. I wouldn't want you to hold your breath.

Of course he was specifically asked. I am sure the reporter was hoping Romney would step on his dick too.

This isn't an elementary school where "Well look what HEEEE did" is a valid response to justify someone elses failure.

Nowhere have I said that Obama is a good president, I merely said that Romney, based on these actions wouldn't be either.

In typical Romney flip-flop fashion, he went back against what he originally stated and tried to make it better by saying that England is in fact ready to host the Olympics. At least he is consistently inconsistent.

He never said they weren't ready. He only said their security screw-ups were disconcerting. They still are.

>You might want to look up the definition of pandering.

"Pandering is the act of expressing one's views in accordance with the likes of a group to which one is attempting to appeal."

You must have meant the right winger definition - "Pandering is the act of supporting any group that conservatives dislike."

[Gravitymaster 0]

Pointing out hypocrisy has always been an acceptable tactic here in SC.

Frankly I think anyone who makes a judgement over someone's fitness for the office or POTUS based on something like this and then completely ignores what their guy does is the definition of hypocrisy.

I think the word you are avoiding is disingenuous.

Not true, he was asked whether he thought they were ready.

BRIAN WILLIAMS: And in the short time you've been here in London, do they look ready to your experienced eye?

Quote

MITT ROMNEY: You know, it's hard to know just how well it were turn out-- will turn out. There are a few things that were disconcerting, the stories about the-- private security firm not having enough people-- the sup-- supposed strike of the immigration and customs officials, that obviously is not something which is encouraging.

The security was one of the few things he talked about. He was asked whether he thought they were ready and he very blatantly gave indications that they were not.

It's like a British diplomat being in the United States for something and being asked if they thought the country was ready and them responding "Well.. you know... There was that spree killing the other day... Guns seem to be far too commonplace.. It's disconcerting."

And best believe such a statement would cause a little patriotic riot in the U.S.

I heard that he's planning on retroactively cancelling his trip to London.

I liked Gordon Brown's statement in return. How it is a little harder to organize the Olympics in a busteling city as opposed to "the middle of nowhere" lol

The diplomatic version of Fuck You.

Well, maybe he does believe they are not ready (even though he did not say that). But the fact is that they are either "ready" or they are not. Nothing Romney says will change it either way. I hope it all goes well.
