Was Mitt Romney Right About Everything?

 

I would say this was shocking, but anyone with just a smidgen of common sense was voting for him because they knew he was right all along. I like how it's explained that Mitt tried to seriously discuss these issues, but he was continuously met with punchlines and slogans. If liberals even understood anything, they'd realize the jokes on them. They fell for it, and there is no way to fix it now.

Was Mitt Romney right about Detroit and Russia?

 

FTA:

Romney had different ideas than the president about the war on terror, and he also had outspoken ideas on Russia, which he told Wolf Blitzer on CNN in March of 2012 was "without question our number one geopolitical foe."

 

His statement drew snickers in Washington and complaints in foreign policy circles that he was stuck in the Cold War.

 

"You don't call Russia our No. 1 enemy -- not al Qaeda, Russia -- unless you're still stuck in a Cold War mind warp," President Barack Obama said at the Democratic National Convention last September.

 

The president probably still wouldn't call Russia this country's top foe. But now that Russia has given NSA leaker Edward Snowden a year of asylum, and the two countries can't find accord on Syria or Iran, he might choose not to put the line in his convention speech.

 

"Now is the time to fundamentally rethink our relationship with Putin's Russia," Sen. John McCain said upon hearing news of Snowden's asylum. "We need to deal with the Russia that is, not the Russia we might wish for. We cannot allow today's action by [Russian President Vladimir Putin] to stand without serious repercussions."

 

"Russia has stabbed us in the back," said Sen. Chuck Schumer, the New York Democrat. He called on Obama to protest by demanding the upcoming G-20 summit for world economic powers be moved away from Russia.

 

Romney's much-cited New York Times op-ed argued the car industry should be shepherded into a managed bankruptcy and not propped up with taxpayer dollars.

 

The headline of Romney's op-ed in November 2008 was "Let Detroit Go Bankrupt." That headline followed him all the way to November of 2012 when he lost the election.

 

Romney's argument in the opinion piece was directed at the car industry, but it foreshadowed last month's news that the Detroit the city, once the powerhouse of the American economy, was going bankrupt.

Mitt Romney has spent his life being right about most everything he's put thought into. It's not surprising that he would be right about these particular things, too.

 

But his wife has a horse and he isn't 'relatable', so we didn't vote for him.

He was right, and I voted for him. And mitt lost so we are stuck with 4 more years of amateur hour.

 

Hope and change! Forward! Yes we can!
