LONDON (AP) -- Mitt Romney wanted to highlight U.S.-British bonds - and show off his diplomatic skills to boot - but he managed to rankle the Olympic hosts instead, from Prime Minister David Cameron on down.

In related news: Obama is still leading Romney in the polls with an aggregated average of 1.3%, and holds onto considerable leads in key battleground states.

He said they might not be prepared. Isn't that what a leader does BO. The Brits have pride and their ego gets in the way of common sense.

One reason people believe that Mitt went to London was to try to highlight his management of the SLC winter games. It seems to me--and probably to David Cameron and Boris Johnson as well--that Mitt said he was "disconcerted" to try to make it clear to all that he is an expert on how Olympics can be run and also imply that if he were running the London Games that maybe any problems that the planners are facing wouldn't be happening.

It was a comment that was made in campaign mode but that didn't appreciate the fact that it might be insulting to the British government. Predictably, Cameron and Johnson bristled at any implication that they are screwing things up.

This is the kind of mistake that a person who runs on the argument that he has the ability to run a better foreign policy shouldn't be making. It is not a big deal at all in my opinion. The current administration has made their share of mistakes as well. But as Romney seeks to enhance the perception of his foreign policy acumen, this is an unfortunate setback that undercuts his narrative.

Those are some of the mistakes I referred to in my post. It really is astounding how bad those gifts were.

The only thing Owebama is leading in is his use of "I" in his speeches.

Speaking in Sandusky, Ohio on July 5, President Barack Obama used the first-person pronouns “I” and “me” a combined 117 times in a speech that lasted about 25 minutes and 32 seconds.

Obama used “I” 98 times and “me” 19 times, according to a transcript of the speech posted by the White House. A videotape of the speech posted on YouTube shows that Obama spoke for about 25-and-a-half minutes.


What happened to the collective thought of the Left? Dont see too many "we" in there. Owebama sounds as narcissistic (if not more) than our resident Village Idiot, Malaria.

Wait, MAYBE he wants to showcase how hard he has worked for you in between 100+ rounds of golf around the great 57 States, speaking the language of business, Austrian, for shovel ready jobs at Solyndra and other successful gvt investments like GM that is obviously reducing the National Debt.

Of course he built it all. amirite?

Anyway, it's amusing WTS hasnt returned to this thread to defend those thoughtful and expensive gifts given by our First Couple to the Brits.

so let's see in the first couple of obama statements

" I love you back. (Laughter and applause.) Let me first of all say that Orlando makes me feel real small. I mean, I want him blocking for me every time. (Laughter.) So I’ve been a big fan of yours for a long time. I know how proud your hometown is of you, and we are thrilled to have you here today. (Applause.)

The only other person I want to make mention of, who has just done so much work on behalf of the people of Ohio -- your former governor, my co-chair for the campaign here in Ohio -- Ted Strickland is in the house. (Applause.)"


i mean seriously. count I's and Me's and My's

has the right stooped so low? they never had much context in reality, but this is what they've come down to? out of context word document pronoun searches?

here let me try something.

"I believe that me and you together, America, can help defeat the communism that you and I face, from Owebama. but first I would like to say, that between me and you, the commies won't win. (applause)

I just want to make a mention of my good friend in the audience, J. Edgar Hoover. Him and I go way back, hunting commies. Some people distanced themselves from him. Me? Well I embraced his fortitude.

What we have here tonight. And what I have taken responsibility of, as your president. I have to fight these communist Owebama's. It's nost just me up here. It's you and I. we have to fight these red commie bastards. And I will prevail. And you will prevail."


a little too easy eh.

oh and btw. a quick CTRL+F shows 102 'we' in that speech. minus a couple 'we' from the audience.

no we eh.

let's try a little harder now.

when Mitt get elected, we all all look back on Obama and say, "shessh, he wasnt that bad at all".

Help Mitt pay his fair share of taxes

In New York City, two twentysomethings want to help him pay his fair share.

Last night, Nate Burke and Nicholas Finch launched MittStarter, a Kickstarter-biting crowdfunding site designed to help the two raise the $3 million Romney avoided paying last year.

Hey, that's a nifty tip you have there. Thanks. My bad for not counting them all. But more importantly, your admission he focuses on himself more than others is good enough for me.

Anything else you want to try a little harder on to nitpick about or is that it?

Because it doesnt change the fact Owebama has always been about him and that WTS is full of shit (as usual).

Every article I read says this was a trip meant to burnish Mittens' foreign policy credentials or some shit like that, because it was generally considered a weakness of his, so he was going to spend seven days and tidy that all up.

I'm not understanding what exactly Mittens was going to do in seven days that would fix everything. Even if he had managed to not piss off the city of London.

Do you hate Jews?

If not, then why aren't you going after Obama about his never visiting our ally Israel? Don't you think there's something wrong with that?

Of course you hate the Jews more than the Muslims, God help those fucking Christians.

But the entire point of my post was that I think it's stupid symbolism for a candidate to visit a nation and pretend it means something, when really the only goal is that he doesn't spill food on himself. Why are you asking me to read into the stupid symbolism behind Obama not visiting Israel yet?

Also, I hate the tit-for-tat stuff, but...
