Mitt Romney
 

He's the American people's only way of ousting Barack Obama from a second term as American president, and Mitt Romney is on a World Tour to present himself as a World Leader in waiting......

Its not going too well, though. The sabre rattling of his advisors in saying Israel would be fully justified in launching a unilateral nuclear strike on Iran didn't go down too well, so he quickly changed his stance to saying that Israel should retain the right to defend itself.

This after he insulted the United Kingdom by saying we couldn't organise a p*ss up in a brewery (or words to that effect).

Oh dear! Perhaps he'd better get back to the place he knows best, among sadly ignorant people who are taken in by his ultra naive views and think his dyed hair is a plus factor.

And lets all pray he doesn't get anywhere near the White House!

Re: Mitt Romney
 

He's just another controlled Politician :confused:- well he's controlled by money - if they say the wrong things no bodies going to finance their campaign. So he has to say things that he thinks will please the backers - like this stance against Iran in support of Israel. That's why the Bushes got in twice - father and son - because they have big oil money backers.:cool:

Re: Mitt Romney
 

No doubt he will be christened Nit Romney before too long:rolleyes:

Re: Mitt Romney
 

For some newly elected American presidents, there is a ritual of them visiting their ancestoral homeland. In Mitt's case, that would involve coming to Lancashire because his great great grandaddy Romney emigrated from the red rose county as a newly converted Mormon. I'm not exactly sure where - there seems to be some conflicting evidence - but being the thicko that Mitt is - my guess is Ossy. I wonder if he turns up the flies will still be there to greet him? What will he have to say then?

Re: Mitt Romney
 

Was chatting to Eric about this guy funnily enough last night on FB - he said it would be a great step backwards for American women if he gets elected and suggested taking an M out of Mormon to see what he really is!;)

Re: Mitt Romney
 

Sadly things went from bad to worse as the tour continued.

In a keynote speech, he declared Jerusalem to be the capital of Israel, even though US policy holds that the city's designation is a matter for negotiations between the Israelis and Palestinians.

He was accused of racism after he told an audience of Jewish donors that cultural differences explained why Israel's economy was much larger than that of the Palestinians.

He tried to praise the Polish trade union movement, Solidarity, for helping to topple Communist rule, but Solidarity were not having anything to do with him, given his history of attacks on trade unions in the US.

During the whole tour, he only answered three questions from US reporters, prompting his Press Secretary to answer legitimate questions from the reporters with "Kiss my ass" and "Shove it"

The only thing missing was his trousers falling down as he boarded the flight home, which would have been entirely in keeping with the tone of his tour.

You should perhaps keep in mind that for most yanks the rest of the world doesn't exist ... or at least, exists only in order to be ignored or invaded.:rolleyes: Criticism of Romney by the foreign media will probably increase his popularity among the GOP faithful. As long as he remains commited to lowering taxes, expanding the military, giving the private sector carte blanche to do anything they damn well want, banning abortion, breaking unions, making access to guns easier, repealing Obamacare ... well you get the picture ... millions of yanks will vote for him ... even if his pants fall down as he accepts the nomination of the Republican Party.

Re: Mitt Romney
 

I haven't seen much of Romney but since the dear ol' folks of the USA officially elected George W Bush (possibly the most dangerous man who ever walked the planet) as their premier citizen TWICE it wouldn't surprise me to see Obama replaced with an inferior candidate.

God bless America.

Re: Mitt Romney
 

Romney is worse than Bush. GW was merely a power hungry, amoral, opportunistic sonofabitch riding on the rep of his daddy. Romney quite probably believes the bs he is spouting. Under a Romney administration, the US will once again be undisputed biggest threat to world peace and security ... And don't forget, you folks who are familiar with how the system works down there, he will have two years with the benefit of a GOP dominated Congress.

If there is a bright side, a Romney win will benefit Canada (I know, that really doesn't turn anyone's crank over on that side of the pond;)) ... Keystone pipeline will win quick approval, which means that bitumen from the Athabasca tar sands will be flowing to US ports and refineries. One only has to take a quick glance at the Middle East to understand why the yanks prefer to buy our oil:rolleyes: And there will be strong US support for Canadian claims in the Arctic.

And it is important to see what kind of neo-fascist, gun toting, born again, nigger hating (but only in private:rolleyes:), gay basher he chooses as his running mate. But, he could fool us all on that one and pick someone like Con Rice. Of course, it wouldn't matter all that much, the VP is still a cipher. John Nance Garner, FDR's VP, once observed that the job wasn't worth "a bucket of warm p(ee)" ... thing's ain't changed much.

Re: Mitt Romney
 

For those of you who actually have an interest in the run up to the election, and in US politics in general, keep an eye out for celebrity endorsements. We don't have such things in our politics, and I doubt you have them in yours; but in the US they carry a lot of weight. So far, Brad Pitt and his gorgeous old lady have endorsed Obama (altho' Pitt's mom has come out in support of Romney;)) Clint Eastwood has endorsed Romney ... Dirty Harry, go figure, eh:D No doubt, other celebs will clamber on one or the other bandwagon. I've no doubt that Oprah will come out for Obama; and that is a biggie ... Oprah has a large and loyal following.

Re: Mitt Romney
 

I have to admit that I enjoy American politics; so, I made a point of understanding it. You can have fun following the campaign. See how many scandals come out. (Read the first line of Rochester's "Ramble in St. James' Park." In fact, read the whole poem ... it's a hoot:alright:) And you can have fun figuring out how many times a candidate can fit "God" into a short speech. See all the unfaithful and divorced Congressmen praising the "Family". It's a blast ... and, like WWE, so obviously fake.

But the yanks lap it up (as long as it doesn't interfere too much with football and the World Series:rolleyes:)) However, there are several million US voters who are commited to neither party. And this is the constituency that determines who is elected Prez. What Romney needed to do when he selected his running mate was to appeal to these voters. Instead ... and it has most political commentators shaking their heads (I wonder how many have more than one head:confused:) ... he chose someone who appeals to folks who would vote for him anyway.:eek: And someone who, at the same time, will alienate the voters he needs to put him over the top.

I may be wrong, but I don't see anything that can stop Obama now. Hell, not even if Michelle posed nude for "Hot Chocolate":D It will be close because, for too many yanks, Obama is still a nigg ... Oops, almost said it.;). But I don't see the swing voters supporting a ticket of far right and lunatic right.

Re: Mitt Romney
 

Watching Sky News over here, we tend to see a bit of Fox News coverage of American politics (same owner, the 'humble' Rupert Murdoch). That gives us the impression that Obama has made a complete mess of the Presidency, and the only possible solution is for him to be ousted in November. The Tea Party have been presented as the solution to America's ills.

So it's somewhat surprising to see the Tea Party completely overlooked by the Republicans when they came to select a candidate, and it is surprising too (although refreshing also) to see them make such a complete and total mess of their selection of candidate and his running mate.

Once again, God Help America!

Don't be surprised if Fox "News" supports Romney/Ryan. Looks like Murdoch is happy with Mittens's choice.

Mitt Romney's message of apology, admitting that he was a million miles wide of the mark in criticising London's ability to host the Games, seems to have got lost in the post.

It wouldn't do for someone hoping to be elected President to be shown to be so hopelessly wrong, would it!

If he wishes to make a comparison of the US health care system with that of the UK, then where better to look than with his own CIA.

It is such a naive argument that you have to read it twice to believe that's what he's actually saying. What good are tax cuts if you are dead? :confused:

Universal health care is something we concluded was central to any civilised society over 60 years ago. It's unbelievable that anyone is still having the discussion. Cameron and Osborne aren't arguing against universal health care. They just have strange ways of seeing how it can be provided.

Re: Mitt Romney
 

So long as they don't take the road of those Mancie kowtows too and toss money into PFI :rolleyes:

Re: Mitt Romney
 

This is exactly what amazes me. Only the most right-wing laissez faire Tory would want to do away with the NHS altogether. Over in the States, a large part of the Republican electorate seems to regard the very existence of a universal healthcare system as a fiendish commie plot. :rolleyes:

Re: Mitt Romney
 

I remember PFIs being trailed 20/25 years ago. They were seen as a means of getting public buildings built at a time when there was a squeeze on spending during the Thatcher/Major era. They appealed to the Conservatives because they were a collaboration with the private sector, and to Labour because they had a minimum effect on the public purse in the short term, thereby allowing a lot of big projects to be carried out.

I also recall the warnings being given loud and clear that the only benefits were short term, and that 20 years down the line we'd suffer. I think this put off most Conservative thinkers, but it fitted in well with Labours 'live now, pay later' philosophy.

Well here we are 20 years later, and the chickens have come home to roost. They can't say they weren't warned!

Re: Mitt Romney
 

Lets get things clear...the PFI was introduced during the John Major government and then carried on by Blair..any money owed to those private investors could be paid off now, today, at this moment.
The £20 billion in cuts to the NHS demanded by this government makes it impossible to even pay the existing debt and so we end up with increasing interest payments to the private sector.. and that suits this government just fine..whatever this lot may say they are tories and that means they must provide cash to the private sector ..always has been.

Re: Mitt Romney
 

Major did toy with it but as you say wasn't over keen to delve deep into it, PFI is now taking up around 14% off health trust finances, taking into account all the other hairbrained financial schemes embarked on my both Blair and Brown, finances were totally out of control, who can forget the note Liam Byrne left on his desk when Labour were kicked out, "there's no money left we've spent it all"

Re: Mitt Romney
 

(Trying to read through before responding but had to jump in): Oh dear, now I remember why I took a break from Accyweb. Back then it was so many of you guy's love affair with Obama (who in Most Americans minds has been a Complete disaster in every walk of our lives). I see my old Mate Eric is still active in promoting the far left Liberal mind set. I remain very Conservative.

Romney would not have been my first choice to mend the damage but his experience, character, vision, etc., far exceeds Obama. Okay, reading on . . .

Re: Mitt Romney
 

. . . WOW, views are pretty skewed over there. Obama and his cronies have increased our deficit more then ALL the other Presidents combined. In fact, name me anything positive they've done. This obamacare sounds all fine and dandy but there are so many loopholes, misconceptions, and outright errors, that 30 million Americans will not have coverage due to being dropped by their employers who merely have to pay a penalty which is cheaper then picking up the insurance tab. Poor folks who can't afford the insurance will have to pay a fine for not having coverage but they are TOO poor to pay. UGH!

And Eric, please don't play the race card. Those millions of Americans who have always disliked obama, and the millions who have become disinfranchised by his repeated failures and blunders, do so because of his failled policies NOT because he's half black! Of course you have 10s of thousands of ignorant haters who dislike his color but that is not the majority of Americans.

Finally, (and I REALLY don't want to come back to Accyweb and get hated for my views. I really miss seeing whats going on with the many people who I see as friends and family over there. I'm just trying to give a view from the other side okay?:o) based on my economic status (or lack-there-of :rolleyes:), obama's reelection would benefit me much more then a Romney victory. However, I truly believe that a Republican win will be better for not just our country but for the rest of the world. Remember this all happens right in my back yard!

Great to get the view from the Lions Den, LYY. Its your choice and whoever you choose we will all have to live with.

Obama gets a better press over here than apparently he does in the US. As a world statesman, he has been a great success. His health reforms are seen as an attempt to move the US forward into the 1950s.

What did you make of Romney's overseas visit recently where he managed to upset virtually everyone he met, and frankly came across to most decent minded people as a complete wombat?

We are dreading him being elected.

Most of these very liberal states are also the ones who are in the worse fiscal shape. Further proof that obama and the liberal lead Senate's policy just don't work and haven't worked since the liberal democrats took over Congress in 2007!

Although I was hoping Herman Cain would have been the Republicans choice, Mitt Romney has the experience, character, and plan to fix the horrible mess the liberals have made of things. Sounds like you guys are being fed a boatload of ideas that are not totally factual. Plus our mainstream media continues to attack Romney but has hidden obama's many, many flaws.

Even some leading democrats have said that obama has been running the most negative campaign in recent memory. So many of his commercials have been pulled cause they have been quickly proven to be misstatements and out right lies.

His speech to the Republican Party Convention was full of inaccuracies and downright lies.

He attacked the President for making cuts to the Medicare healthcare programme, but did not say that his own budget plan includes the same savings.

He complained that proposals by a budget commission were not adopted, but did not mention he was on the commission and opposed its report.

He was also accused of misleading his audience over the timing of the closure of a GM plant in his home town of Janesville, Wisconsin,
having failed to note that the plant closed under the previous administration of President George W Bush.

And to confirm that he can't be trusted, he has boasted that he has run a marathon in under three hours. The fact is that his one and only marathon took over four hours.

The man is a compulsive liar and a cheat, probably the ideal person to lead a party that has these sort of people attending iits convention:
