Lots of yabbering about Romney but no mention of ABC commenting about it or the Argentinians athlete making a jab with his comments about exercising on the British monument in the Faulklands. I doubt the most conservative media in Britain is actually that conservative....especially when we're talking about Britain which is extremely liberal and media for that matter.

Even the Murdoch rags had fun at Mitt's expense. I think you may have to deal with the fact that the diplomatic side of the mission fizzled.

Still media, Murdoch or not. I try not to let any media make decisions for me.

Wow...it just goes to show that people would prefer a politician who is phony and duplicitous as opposed to one that is direct and honest. I'm starting to lose faith in the world...

The word you're looking for is "diplomatic".

I know, I get that feeling often, too. Then I remember that Romney will be gone from national and world stage soon, and I feel much better.

Romney sort of reminds me of Obama in the way that, anytime he's not delivering "prepared remarks", he comes across a complete buffoon. And that WAS a good comeback. Utah is in the middle of nowhere.

I suppose Romney knows just how they prepared for the Olympics because he can see them from his house.

I wondered about that, too. A fine example of public education.
