ROMNEY: Obama Supports 9/11 Truthers
Mitt Romney Claims That President Obama’s Words ‘Support’ 911 Truthers Abroad

Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney’s foreign policy mythology book tour continued on Fox News Sunday this morning. Romney started his interview saying that President Obama had engaged in an “apology tour.” This has been a standard conservative talking point in response to the massive positive shift in global attitudes toward America, as a result of President Obama’s diplomatic outreach.

However, Romney went further asserting that Obama’s words gave “support” to those saying the 9/11 attacks were a fabrication:

ROMNEY: It also adds fuel to the fire of those who are apart of the blame America crowd. I saw even Ahmadinejad is even saying 911 is a fabrication. These sorts of voices should not receive any kind of support from the words of the President of United States.


But I can tell you, that I am glad the the President reversed course in Iraq – he didn’t pull our troops out as he said during the campaign. He likewise supported our surge efforts in Afghanistan, having voted against the surge in Iraq… He has done some things right, but his apology tour was one of the things he did very very badly.

Mitt has crossed the line from just parsing the truth into making shit up out of whole cloth.

2. How do you know Romney is lying?
His lips are moving. What a scumbag. I look forward to watching him lose another presidential election.

7. Yep.
Like the time he claimed to be a "life long hunter" and finally had to admit he didn't even own a gun, and his only hunting was at a dump shooting rats! Or how he and his dad walked with Martin Luther King, and then had to admit it was in "spirit" only! Yep, you can always trust Mitt, to lie that is! :evilgrin:

5. Supported "your surge efforts"? Rethugs turned their backs on Afghanistan. It became boring to them.
What a load of bs.

6. It used to be the "blame America FIRST crowd." I could almost understand why that bothered some.
But now according to ignorant dipshits like Romney America is *never* at fault? *Never* to blame?
What are these guys, five year olds?

12. I wrestle daily with the burden of determining whether MItt Romney
believes in the Easter Bunny or believes he IS the Easter Bunny.
