So, you know how Willard Mittingston Wigglesworth Romney IV made a very important foreign policy statement about the murders of American diplomats in Libya, which kind of left even Republican foreign-policy experts gobsmacked at its tone-deaf injection of politics into a developing foreign crisis?
He's not very smart, and was so excited to get his (fallacious) smash out there that he released the "embargo" about 10:30, violating the 9/11 truce, and making himself look even stupider.
Honestly, I think that Rmoney and his handlers are so desperate that they may not have even noticed the timestamp on the embassy tweet. I see little reason to invoke anything but Mitt's usual incompetence and insensitivity to explain this.
I feel the same thing. The part about it that really makes me think something is up: He's "sticking by his guns" with this statement.
Ana Marie Cox had a great description of him and the mustache...something about looking as though he jammed a chinchilla up his nose and only left the tail hanging out.
I think he's just legitimately clueless. He's a vulture capital geek. He knows nothing of diplomacy or tact or dealing with heated emotions. The Mormon thing probably means that almost all of his social interactions for his whole life have been with other Mormons; that is, people just like him.
He's also probably not as smart as he thinks he is.
From the same guy, I believe. Rahm's spokesthing had to actually answer a question about it and say, no, Rahm doesn't actually like Nickelback.
The stench of desperation is strong on this one.
Actually, the "press" part has possibilities.
You have to give him time to get his foot out of his mouth, before he stuffs the other foot in.
Drinking, right?

No, they'll just sue.

When the fuck has he ever done that before?

It is looking good, but still a ways to go, and we Murkins are nothing if not flighty.
For realz? That's good to know.
“I want to be clear, it is never too early for the United States to condemn attacks on Americans, even before they happen."

If there were such a mythical creature.
Is that possible? No pictures please!
i hope matt and trey aren't anywhere in the vicinity. i believe they have a history of this kind of thing.
