Straight-Faced GOP Mouthpieces: Mitt Romney Has Foreign Policy Experience Because Of All Those Swiss Bank Accounts
When Barack Hussein NObAama ran for president in 2008 with no foreign policy experience (unless you count ACORN as its own brave nation state), our good, kind and decent brethren on the right thought this might be a bad idea. How would this 48-year-old baby ever defeat bin Laden, or Khadafi, or the Soviet Union? Barack balanced out his lack of foreign policy experience with grizzled Old Handsome Joe Biden to appeal to people who cared about foreign policy and also whites. But this still was not good enough for some people! (Shockingly.) Now, Republican nominee Mittens of Romney and Suite Judy Blue Eyes Paul Ryan have a combined zero foreign policy experience. But would you believe that Mitt Romney does have foreign policy experience, and that is because he was in business and had many bank accounts throughout the world? Because that is what conservative Statesmen Newt Gingrich and Tim Pawlenty say. Let us listen in wonder, and awe!
Here they are on Face the Nation:
PAWLENTY: Romney and Ryan have a terrific national security policy team around them…Governor Romney spent his entire career inglobal business arrangements, transactions and traveling and understanding different countries, cultures and geography.
We seem to remember a lot of libtards saying Barack Obama understood different countries, cultures and geography because he actually lived in different countries, cultures and geography. But we guess that is not as powerful an understanding as is going to the Caymans to visit your money.

That budget busting Soviet military build-up is largely a lie. When asked about it, former USSR officials laugh.
Additionally, a much more important factor was getting the Saudis to overproduce oil and push down the world price, thus severely reducing the USSR's foreign currency revenues.
And Duh Gov' had military experience because the Governor of Alaska is head of the state's national guard and some of those good souls were serving in Iraq.
