Breaking: Romney: Obama handling of Libya, Egypt violence 'disgraceful'
CNN ^ | September 11, 2012 | Mitt Romney

Posted on 09/11/2012 7:40:37 PM PDT by SE Mom

(CNN) - Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney on Tuesday issued a paper statement sharply critical of President Barack Obama over his handling of violence in the Middle East earlier in the day.

“I'm outraged by the attacks on American diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt and by the death of an American consulate worker in Benghazi," Romney said in the statement. "It's disgraceful that the Obama Administration's first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks.”

Perfect response from Romney.

Foot on his throat, Mitt, and keep it there.

Romney needs to expand on this to the failure of Obama’s entire Mid-East policy since he’s been President, this is just a symptom of that failure.

Romney - it is time to fight.

Shove this RIGHT IN OBAMA’S FACE.

This is the “dividend” from obama supporting the “arab spring”

I'm pretty sure Late Night With Dave will be able to come up with a few ideas. Barry is in fundraiser mode right now and he can't multitask for sh*t.

Obama and his administration has been a disgrace since day one.

WTG Romney!

Yes, this screw up may be just what Romney needed. They have not been willing to go after Obama’s foreign policy, and both the embassy invasion and the governments ridiculous response open up two new lines of attack...Weakness and bumbling.

I’m just saying.... it’s probably a good thing I’m not president. I have a short fuse when it comes to terrorists attacking america. I’d probably do something pretty drastic.

And the media won't cover Romney's response so the public won't even see it.

The media won't cover this embassy invasion by Islam hardly if at all. But the media made sure every American head it a 1000 times anything that will help Obama .

Mitt mistakenly believed that he would beat Obama on the economy.

It’s foreign policy where Obama is most vulnerable, and needs to be focused on.
