They were at Poland’s tomb of the unknown soldier; the questions were shrill, irritating, and dumb; and aide Rick Gorka lost his temper for maybe eight seconds, then apologized. Simple ingredients, but that’s all you need for a tasty summer stew of manufactured outrage that keeps the news cycle churning. September can’t get here soon enough, my friends.
Alternate headline: “Conservative support for Romney now at 100 percent.”

You listen to the audio of those pigs yelling at Romney and it’s no wonder the aide told them to kiss his ***.
Inviting the news media to ‘kiss my ass’ can only gain Willard popularity points.
“They were at Poland’s tomb of the unknown soldier; the questions were shrill, irritating, and dumb;”
I read some of the comments on HuffPo this morning that accompanied their biased story on this issue. Many of the comments had to do with complaints that Romney is not giving the press a chance to ask questions. This from the acolytes of a POTUS who has NEVER, EVER, in almost 4 years, had a press conference that wasn’t scripted, or had his planted presstitutes asking softball questions. How freaking hypocritical can you be. God forgive me, but I really hate these people!!
Author must not read FR much. Here he's hated only second to Obama by most, some more so.
Bravo for Mitt and his team! Let’s hope he keeps pushing back against these jackals and is not the punching bag that GWB was. My advice would be to open up a can of whoop ass every now and then, just to keep the leftist media attack dogs off balance.
I have not been a Romney supporter during the primaries. I thought him too RINO for what this nation needs to rebuild. And he still might be exactly that. But in one area Mitt Romney has been 5 Star: his campaigning.
Romney is really doing some smashmouth campaigning against Obama, keeping the focus on the Obama failures. And credit to his team - they’ve been outstanding in respoding rapid fire to the Obama obfuscations. So far, he’s been doing just great running his campaign and not leeting the Media set the terms. Good for him, and hope he keeps it up.
That's how it should be said.
Isn’t that a dignified manner in which to conduct oneself. And that would make one popular why? I know no one who condones conducting oneself in that manner. It is embarrassing.
Audience would have been overjoyed in San Francisco.
What is embarrassing is the media jackals showing no respect for this solemn site. It’s just a gotcha game for them. The concepts of dignity and respect never crossed their mind. Do you think this group of “reporters” would have treated Obama this way? Just curious.
Romney should give that man a raise and promotion.
I don't hate him, I just won't vote for a pro-abortion, anti-gun, socialized medicine, big government liberal.

Of course not and I agree. The media showed dreadful disrespect considering where they were. It is embarrassing as an American to be judged by their behaviour.I do wish you would apologize to all self respecting jackals everywhere for comparing them to the media there.
I don’t hate them ... they are just stupid and blind to their own hypocrisy. If it had been their precious Obama ... they would have said, “What!? Is the entire press pool made up of Faux news?” And, “Have some respect...he’s the president!” And, “Those questions weren’t serious...” And, “These people should be kicked out of the press pool!”
Has Obama EVER been yelled at like this? This famously reminds me of what used to happen to Reagan. Mitt should just cup his ear.

Presstitute bimbos don’t kiss ass, they give BJ’s
Obama isn’t very good on foreign trips, for example, when he visits the United States ... ha ha.
I don’t recall the Democrat ass kissers in the media ever chasing down Barack Hussein Obama to ask about has gaffes and flubs.
Even when brought to their attention they giggle and pooh-pooh it as an honest mistake.
Ditto!
How easily deceived are those who can’t think for themselves and call him a RINO - he is LIBERAL through and through as his record shows.
Damn. I almost punctured the monitor trying to wipe off that speck of dirt on letter 'l'.

If it had been Clinton saying it then in that case . . . .
Wow! “The media” sound like barking coyotes.
I’m beginning to like Romney. Could I have been wrong about him? He seems to realize that he needs the base if he’s to win. The three or four “undecideds” won’t win it for him. I hope he governs that way if he wins.
Really - isn't that obvious?Could it be because the media consistently polls below congress, lawyers and herpes in terms of their popularity with the public?
And they are so unpopular because people know they have their left wing screeds written before they ask their first question.
So yes, when they trot out their usual 'when did you stop beating your wife' a great many of us believe 'kiss my ass' is just the right response.
I’ve moved beyond hating these people. I actively pray for their demise.
Yeah, Mitt’s almost as bad as Reagan, divorced and a former democrat, Screen Actors Guild member and union stooge ....
http://2012.republican-candidates.org/Romney/Issues.php
In 2012 (above) Romney claims to be pro-life and supports the 2nd Amendment.
As far as his supporting “socialized medicine”: http://www.charismanews.com/us/33693-mitt-romney-vows-to-overturn-obamacare Romney has vowed to seek the repeal the (so-called) `Affordable Care Act.’
As far as being a “big government liberal,” gee—successful businessman, and on and on: He can’t be any worse than Comrade Obama.
At least read his stands on the issues (again, above) unless you and all the other political Luddites here who don’t hate him but are simply determined to hold your breath until you turn blue, and libel anyone who appeals to evicting Obama by practical means, and blah blah blah ....
I agree. I would like to see Romney take the high road and fire him. But how likely is that?
/johnny
Compare and contrast actual actions as governors.
I haven't libeled anyone. You vote how your principles dictate. I'll vote my principles.

Romney's support for conservatives now at 19.6 percent. On alternate Thursdays.
I can’t stand mitt, but the shameless hypocrisy of the media playing gotcha now versus the complete lack of curiosity about obie’s past, and unwillingness to challenge even his most egregious lies and stupidities only makes me hate the media even more.
The lame-stream media are just plain evil.
/johnny
I guess it boils down to what option is the least of the two evils in November:
Liberal through and through, or
Marxist Traitor through and through
Slight edit: barking coyotes jackals.
False dichotomy. There are other options.
I don't consider Mitt evil. Just wrong, based on his history in office.
BTW, advocating voting for a candidate that is liberal because he's not as bad as the other guy isn't going to win conservative votes. It will, however, encourage the GOP to run more liberal candidates.
/johnny
Reagan would have done everything differently than Romney. And he would have done it with dignity and he would have left friends behind when he left his travels. He always did. And I am not going to hold my breath waiting for Romney to show any kind of leadership. Are you? As you said, if not now, when? He is too late even now. How do you overcome this disastrous trip?
Thankfully, I doubt most people agree with you. In all likelihood most sane people never agree with you.
I’m not a liberal so it’s n/a.
His popularity went up 20 points with me.
I agree w/you about Reagan and, also, a good reminder about him. The two candidates running couldn’t shine Reagan’s shoes. Nothing about them is pro-America - socialistic healthcare ALONE proves that.
