Mitt Romney’s outraged, OUTRAGED I say, about Nancy Pelosi
Shifting through the news outrage over Nancy Pelosi leading a delegation of Congress-critters to Syria, I ponder whether the Republican blatherers would know to be outraged without the designations of “D” and “R”. But substituting John Boehner for Nancy Pelosi, it hits me: aside from boutique single issue critters of the Tom Tancredo variety, nobody knows any Republican House members anymore. Who the Hell is John Boehner?
Mitt Romney came out with the typical statement, and I am having a devil of a time finding his words online. It was the standard pitch that Nancy Pelosi had breeched an age-old tradition — Politics needs to be unified beyond the Water’s edge and you stand by the President in foreign policy. There can be no “multiple foreign policies”, a statement that makes me ponder how American corporations are supposed to move around the world with objectives not parallel and in a different sphere than the official government’s. He made an extra pitch, saying that “If you don’t like the President’s foreign policy, you just need to see to it that you have a different president.”
To wit, I feign astonishment. MITT ROMNEY JUST CALLED FOR THE ASSASSINATION OF THE PRESIDENT! Geez, I don’t much like the guy, but wow — that’s pretty extreme on Romney’s part.
