I know it is difficult to get a balance of information, so I will try to simplify it. The time is whenever the President is not abroad representing the US. There used to be some political courtesy between Parties, particularly at the top. Obviously, in the House that has not been the case, too many nut jobs on both sides. But if you prefer to pretend that you don't know that, go ahead.

So, you change the rules a needed. Your own link did not support what you said, so now it's both parties, but more from the right side.

I guess, once again, you forget


Obama says adding $4 trillion to debt is unpatriotic. - YouTube

And this is during a campaign even.....so, again the left is the "Do as I say, but not as I do group."

So when a President is abroad, he's not allowed to be criticized? Where the hell did you get that impression from because thats pretty stupid?

It's only OK to criticize a Republican president when they're abroad. You have to understand how the leftwing mind works. Actually, that's an oxymoron so never mind...

The fact is that Romney can not win if he is takes a position on anything. The republican ideas are unpopular, yet the base demands that he at least pretend to embrace them. Tough spot. A man of character would stake out a position though and let the chips fall where they may.
Perhaps that's the most fore-sighted position to take when the electorate contains a large contingent of spoiled children who don't want to face some hard choices -- or remain convined that somebody else can foot the bill.

Default Why would voters accept Romney's ambigious positions?

The RWNJs on this forum will vote for him because he's not Obama. That's their main desire. These are the birthers, teabaggers, and other mixed nuts who hate anyone who doesn't look or think their way.

There is a lengthy history of not doing that, but you can, since absolutely nobody would care, but Romney should know better.
