Moe is that you. Did you change your name? Oh but thats what liberals do, kind of like global warming is now climate change, progressives to liberal to marxist (we can't use that even though we are) ok socialist (can't use that either) so back to progressives. Joenation huh? Say does your last name start with B-I-D-E-N ?
My old account stopped working so I openly created a new one and informed everyone. At least I am not vowel challenged right?
The Washington Post Condemn the source all you want. You and lil Davy seem to be able to condemn sources without being able refute the content. That's pretty lazy and pathetic at the same time.

Moving on.... The fact remains that Mitt Romney's money has more foreign policy experience than he does. And this incident and his trip overseas during the Olympics proves it. He shoots first and aims later. I think we've reached the point where not only Democrats who oppose Romney shouldn't vote for him but neither should Republicans because Romney is just going to embarrass them. When Romney stand along the coast of this country and looks across the water, he says, "Hey, I can see my money from here...and my other house."
Refute a blog? The only refute it needs is that it is a blog and it requires no sourcing to begin with. The fact that you can only find partisan blogs to post speaks louder that anything I could possibly do.
This is a full-fledged foreign policy disaster from the moment the embassy in Cairo put that statement and your trying to do is make this about Romney. We're in the midst of the second term of Jimmy Carter, anybody remember 1979? And there's a coordinated effort to make it about Romney and whether or not he should speak. It is outrageous. It's disgraceful. It's exactly what Romney said. At least someone sounds presidential. Obama says nothing until 11:00 am. On 9/11, our embassy is attacked. A press release is issued before the attack apologizing for a private citizen exercising his free speech in our own country. The State Department endorsed then disavowes then say it stands. Actually what happened was Embassy Cairo issues that statement; Washington disavows it. Embassy Cairo tweets: No, it still stands. The operative part of our statement being about embarrassed over what Americans are doing to hurt the feelings of Muslims, that still stands. Throughout all of this, the president of the United States hasn't said anything. What an absolute foreign policy disaster. I'm not surprised that a failed administration would try to divert all of this to Romney. Back to 1979. and the campaign of 1980.I remember Ronald Reagan hitting Jimmy Carter, who was the sitting president, every day for his incompetence involving the Iranian hostage crisis! Reagan let it be known that there would be hell to pay if he had to clean up this limp wristed liberals mess and the Iranians were listening. Think about this: If the people of Egypt and Libya were allowed to vote for Barack Hussien Obama I dare to say that a landslide on the scale of 95% plus would be possible.
Romney got it exactly right and has proven his expertise in foreign policy! For Obama, this was another example of "Don't let a crisis go to waste", but has backfired terribly on him. Watch the video in the link below: Romney criticises Obama over attack on US embassy - video Speaking on Wednesday, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney criticises President Barack Obama, who he claims did not condemn those who attacked the American embassy in Egypt. Romney accuses the Obama administration of being too ready to apologise for American values. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/video/2012/sep/13/romney-obama-us-embassy-video?newsfeed=true
Sen. Inhofe: Embassy attacks a result of Obama's 'policy of appeasement' September 13, 2012 Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) said Thursday that the attacks on American embassies in the Middle East were happening as a result of "the policy of appeasement" and called for immediate congressional hearings into the violence that has left four foreign service officers dead. "You can start them tomorrow. These hearings should start," Inhofe told Fox News. "Let's keep in mind, this is a big deal," he continued. "We have four countries right now attacking America. When you attack an embassy, you're attacking America. We can't sit around and wait for hearings. We've got to do it right now." Inhofe was then asked by Fox host Steve Doocy if the attacks were the result of President Obama's foreign policy, and specifically his "apology tour" when he visited Egypt at the beginning of his presidency. Although the president did not issue any apologies during that trip, Republicans have criticized the tone as too conciliatory. "Yeah. What foreign policy? The policy of appeasement," Inhofe said. "Yes, it's happening as a result of that … this thing is huge. We mentioned four countries — let me tell you, it's not going to stop there. There is war against America throughout the entire region. They're attacking us now." Inhofe went on to call for the suspension of aid to countries where diplomatic missions had been attacked. In an interview Wednesday with Telemundo, President Obama said the United States didn't "have the option of withdrawing from the world." "I think yes — I think rather than say you cut off, you suspend it until we get the answers to the three big questions that we don't know out there," Inhofe said. "We can do this. We can do this very, very soon. But you've got to get their attention. We know that passivity doesn't work. We know the policy has been a disaster over there." The Oklahoma lawmaker also said unequivocally that he believed the White House approved a statement from the U.S. Embassy in Cairo issued around five hours before the attacks that condemned the content of the anti-Islam film that reportedly sparked the protest. The White House has denied that it approved the statement. "The one thing I can guarantee you is that the White House saw that, they approved the statement that went out, and that sounds exactly like the words that none other than the President Obama would use," Inhofe said. "That's been his policy now for four years. It's a failed policy; it doesn't work. This is our opportunity to change that policy." http://thehill.com/video/senate/249...acks-a-result-of-obamas-policy-of-appeasement
Are you just slow or will you believe anything that already agrees with your preconceptions? Romney condemned Obama for apologizing to Muslims in a statement (It was actually a statement of from a staffer in Cairo trying to defuse anger prior to the protests in Egypt that was completely unauthorized) before the protests actually even happened. How do you apologize for something that hasn't even happened. Talk about not knowing what the hell you are talkng about. Romney should scare you but you are just too damn stupid to know when to be scared. I don't envy those that have to walk into a voting booth and pull the lever for Romney. It just sort of reaffirms your own stupidity with a physical act you just can't deny. You poor suckers!
Here's a blog entry. Take a moment and read what this man has to say. Or bury your head in the sand and don't listen. http://stevenbirnspeaks.com/2012/09/12/obamas-foreign-policy-failure-on-display-in-egypt-libya/
Yes we all know by now what the ham-handed candidate said by now, what we don't know is why he would criticize a sitting president during a national tradgedy and completely get the facts wrong while trying to spin the whole situation for political points. Explain that to me idiot.
I did read your blog and I completely disagree with Mr. Birn. He would have us go back to supporting Middle East dictators when we are supposed to be supporting democracy. It's what we say anyway. Democracy is a messy business. We started ours in the midst of slavery and Native American genocide. Are the people in the Middle East really being held to a higher standard than we hold ourselves? Your blogger is an idiot. P.S. Rimmer and Davy, that is how you refute a source not by simply condemning it without giving a reason. Live and learn little ones.
Romney has only faced other cons so far. Wait until he meets Obama, a man with actual intelligence. The debates will be known as the Romney blood bath when all is said and done. Mr Willard "gaff-a-moment" Romney won't be able to help himself. I can't wait!
Did you hear Obama skipped his security briefing today (yes, I mean today) so he could go to Vegas for a fund raiser. I hope Romney blows that one clear over the fence! Funny how the news is not picking up on that one!
"Supporting Middle East dictators"? Really? How can you be so wrong on every, single topic on this forum? Seriously.
