David Corn hit vid part 2: Romney claims Palestinians not interested in peace
You can read the AP report at link below. I’m not linking the sleazebags at Mother Jones. If this is all they have, it’s going to end up as a big snore, with only the media and GOP establishment thinking it’s the end of the world.
Romney says that Palestinians are “committed to the destruction and elimination of Israel” and that the prospects for a two-state solution to Mideast peace were dim.
“You hope for some degree of stability, but you recognize that this is going to remain an unsolved problem.and we kick the ball down the field and hope that ultimately, somehow, something will happen and resolve it,” Romney said.
The remarks are contained in a clip posted Tuesday on the website of the magazine Mother Jones. The magazine said the video is from a $50,000-a-plate fundraiser in Boca Raton, Fla., on May 17.
In the latest clip, Romney is asked about the “Palestinian problem.” He gives a detailed, though somewhat rambling response, and says, “the Palestinians have no interest whatsoever in establishing peace,” and “the pathway to peace is almost unthinkable to accomplish.”
More from The Associated Press.
I’m trying to figure out just what Mitt Romney said that isn’t true. Reality sucks and the pretense that the Palestinians are anything but ignorant, anti-semitic, anti-American, barbarians is insane.
Wow. I likin’ this Romney guy…who tells it like it is!
Compare and contrast with Pres. M Tee Chair.
Well, as long as people are digging up video clips of Romney’s comments on the Palestinians, someone ought to do the same on Palestinian leadership. There are plenty of spoken and written comments on the record about their feelings on Israel and the peace process. It’s not like Romney’s comment is false.
Yes, how DARE MJ expose Willard saying words that Willard believes?! Everyone knows that reporting what wingnuts say, in their own words, is a violation of the first amendment.
Are you wingnuts using up all of your tears now, or will you be saving some for election night?
You’d better get out your crying towel, Curt, sweetie. Ain’t no tears being shed on this side of the aisle. But what else do we expect from a leftist who thinks what Romney said last week was a gaffe?
Here’s a newsflash: most of America is liking this Mitt fella. We’ll see how well come November…
I’m popping a big bowl of corn, the better to enjoy the ‘splodin’ heads over on MSNBC.
A stupid, vacant post…even by your standards, troll.
WE like it when people say things that are true, contra the Collective.
We LIKE reality, also contra your Collective.
Ah wingnut delusions. Yes, wingnuts LOVE reality so much. Tell us, wingnuts, what are Willard Rmoney’s 5 most attractive policies? Specifically.
Go read his MANY position papers, idiot trolll.
Not playing your stupid game, in case you need bashed with a clue-bat.
But I personally liked his defense of the First Amendment in the face of Obama’s attack on it.
Didn’t Obama’s carelessness and his pitiful dhimmitude infuriate you?
Swing and a miss. Yeah Willard’s MANY “position papers” – one for every “position” he takes on a given issue. I think you should be advising the Willard campaign. When every anyone asks what Willard stands for, you can scream about “position papers.” You are a very clever wingnut.
Let’s make it easier for your, Power-Bottom: cite just 3 specific Willard policies that you love.
How did Barack Obama “attack” the first amendment? Specifically. Don’t worry; I know you won’t cite anything.
How was Obama “careless” in his handling of Libya? Specifically. Again, don’t worry; we know that you are incapable of supporting this position as well.
You didn’t see the story about the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Of Staff making a call to Terry Jones?
You missed the story about the DOJ fingering the “Innocence Of Muslim” director?
You missed the various comments of BOTH Obama and Hill-larry deprecating the First Amendment?
You MISSED the STORIES about Obama SKIPPING…before and AFTER…daily intel briefings?
You MISSED the story about Barrackah flying three-quarters across the country to a Las Vegas FUND RAISER, where he showed he NEVER EVEN CONSIDERED WHAT HE WOULD SAY to a crowd after our ambassador was murdered?
You really are too stupid…and ill-informed…to live.
Yes, I’m afraid I missed what passes as “facts” inside the wingnut fever swamp. Most likely because none of it ever happened the way you describe. I also missed when Obama and Clinton “deprecated” the first amendment – most likely because you are lying about such ever happening.
And strangely, I keep missing your EVER citing any specific positions of Willard M. Romney that you support. I mean, we know that given your performance during the primaries, the only possible reason you could have for currently loving Willard is that he’s a white fella. But, “not a black guy,” isn’t really a “position.” Is it, Power-Bottom?
Do you agree with Willard, Power Bottom, that folks who receive a tax deduction for their mortgage interest, are dependent upon government for every aspect of their lives? Since Willard pays 0% in federal income taxes, doesnt that make him a moocher? Do you agree, Power Bottom, that the president should simply not care about 47% of the country?
Our poo-smearing moonbat troll has done his usual sterling job of self-identifying as a lying moron.
Excellent job, idiot!
More printable material to show your friends and neighbors.
Here’s something else, from the Obami…
http://mercatus.org/sites/default/files/Nation-dependents-Web_0.jpg
Facts. To DEAL with.
Romney was right…on several levels.
Where he was wrong is that MANY people who are on some government hand-out would rather NOT be.
They would prefer to be working, and Romney would UN-do what the Obamic Decline has done.
Most Americans want smaller government.
And we’re off to the races with Power Bottom’s dissembling, goal-post destroying, red herrings, misdirection, answers to questions no one asked, etc.
Power Bottom:
When did Obama and/or Clinton “deprecate” the first amendment? Specifically.
Please cite just TWO specific Willard policies that you love.
You are not denying that your only reason for supporting Willard is that he’s a white guy. Correct?
Do you agree with Willard that folks on Medicare, SS, and Medicaid lack are just looking for a handout?
Do you further agree with Willard that those who enjoy a mortgage interest deduction are also dependent on government?
Do you finally agree that because Willard pays 0% in federal income taxes, he is also a government dependent?
Once again, don’t worry; everyone knows you are incapable of answering any of the above honestly.
Total waste of time, you poo-smearing, lying, moonbat troll.
Your value as a foil has been exhausted…again, today.
But…as always…thank you for your help in demonstrating the depravity of your ilk!
Ah, crapping your pants and declaring victory earlier than usual today, eh, Power Bottom?
Such a predictable lightweight.
Like your hero, Willard! Hey, maybe that’s why you look up to him so much.
Total waste of time, you poo-smearing, lying, moonbat troll.
Your value as a foil has been exhausted…again, today.
But…as always…thank you for your help in demonstrating the depravity of your ilk!
Who said this, Power Bottom:
“We kick the ball down the field and hope that ultimately, somehow, something will happen and resolve it.”
Leadership, right?
“And I look at the Palestinians not wanting to see peace anyway, for political purposes, committed to the destruction and elimination of Israel, and these thorny issues, and I say, ‘There’s just no way,’” Romney said. “And so what you do is you say, ‘You move things along the best way you can.’ You hope for some degree of stability, but you recognize that this is going to remain an unsolved problem.”
“All right, we have a potentially volatile situation but we sort of live with it, and we kick the ball down the field and hope that ultimately, somehow, something will happen and resolve it,” he added. “We don’t go to war to try and resolve it imminently.”

Note the moonbat Lie-0-Tron’s reliance on a quote taken entirely out of context.
Sort of tells the tale on who depends on LIES, and who prefers to deal with truth.
Power Bottom, which US president(s) signed into law the Earned Income Tax Credit, and the child tax credit?
This is called Ad Hominem Tu Quoque.
So what?
We have a problem with our tax code. It is a monstrous affront to any free people, and is unsupportable on any moral or civic level.
How it got that way is MUCH less important than how we can change it.
No, it’s called placing scrutiny on *conservative* policies. Because these are two deductions the current Teabagger candidate for president says causes people to be dependent on government for their lives, dip sh*t.
And you’re a very silly Power Bottom to pretend to have any authority to cite logical fallacies, given your consistent failure to ever cite anything of factual record to support your blather.
Total waste of time, you poo-smearing, lying, moonbat troll.
Your value as a foil has been exhausted…again, today.
But…as always…thank you for your help in demonstrating the depravity of your ilk!
Fallacies are demonstrated in what you say, not in my authority, you stupid phuc.

Wow. Americans are not moonbats. Huh?

Sooo…
The moonbattery has its hair on fire over old, old news.
Typical. Romney wants people back at work in good, productive jobs.
Obama reversed the work requirement for welfare.
Clear choice.
