Romney never "had" the foreign press to lose... Tom Send a noteboard - 13/09/2012 02:08:59 PM
Let's be honest. I've read Le Monde, I've read Die Zeit, Deutsche Welle, Corriere della Sera and almost all the Russian news sources, and no one has liked Romney. I understand that, when part of what he says is that "we don't want America to end up like Europe", there might be a bit of indignation in European sources. When he speaks against Russia, there is certainly a response in the Putin-controlled press and even independent Russian sources. And I fully see the Canadian news as taking a cue from their liberal brethren in the US and Europe, as opposed to from Fox. They haven't liked him since they started reporting on him in June - none of them.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Question: did the Egyptian government apologize for letting a mob attack our embassy on 9/11/12? - 12/09/2012 03:37:00 PM 1040 Views
I haven't seen it, but I honestly wasn't looking for that. - 12/09/2012 04:00:39 PM 645 Views
The administration did issue an apology, which was stupid. - 12/09/2012 04:21:04 PM 595 Views
Don't get me started. I'm not in the mood, and I might rip your face off. - 12/09/2012 04:30:57 PM 500 Views
Try it. - 12/09/2012 05:28:37 PM 544 Views
... No, thanks. *NM* - 12/09/2012 05:39:30 PM 252 Views
Aw...I was hoping to see what "ripping off" my face would look like. *NM* - 12/09/2012 05:56:41 PM 268 Views
Unfortunately, I'm much calmer today. - 13/09/2012 03:47:20 PM 473 Views
I'm profoundly disappointed. - 13/09/2012 05:22:54 PM 488 Views
Would you care to cite this apology the US administration issued? - 12/09/2012 08:40:35 PM 631 Views

what is stupid is deliberately distorting the actual statements in order to be outraged at obama - 13/09/2012 04:01:04 PM 604 Views
I'm not outraged personally. - 13/09/2012 05:14:59 PM 492 Views
Besides, the whole point of this post was to question Egypt's position, not Romney OR Obama's *NM* - 13/09/2012 05:16:02 PM 275 Views
Uh huh... - 15/09/2012 02:33:39 AM 513 Views
Don't know, don't care. - 12/09/2012 04:24:18 PM 523 Views
No government has apologized to anyone for the attacks, to my knowledge. - 12/09/2012 05:37:45 PM 723 Views
So we're the only ones who apologized to anyone? That's disgusting. - 12/09/2012 05:55:39 PM 620 Views

Dunno about apologies - 12/09/2012 08:38:04 PM 531 Views
Clarification, please: Egypt arrested four of the perpetrators, or Libya (or both)? - 12/09/2012 08:45:11 PM 720 Views
Egypt. - 12/09/2012 08:55:37 PM 643 Views
Ah, thanks. - 12/09/2012 11:01:22 PM 516 Views
does anyone know where Romney actually stands on this? - 12/09/2012 11:26:47 PM 550 Views
NO ONE is as confused as Romney. - 12/09/2012 11:48:23 PM 605 Views
I don't know if he's confused... - 13/09/2012 12:09:16 PM 602 Views

Can Egypt afford to apologize at the moment? - 14/09/2012 03:21:53 AM 584 Views
Oh great now it's our embassy in Sudan that is on fire - 14/09/2012 02:12:21 PM 574 Views
I suspect there is a very perverse dynamic at work here. - 14/09/2012 04:57:28 PM 626 Views
I love how the media are tying all this to a movie that no one watched. - 14/09/2012 03:22:38 PM 503 Views
What's this about then? - 15/09/2012 12:21:45 AM 490 Views
Wish I knew - 15/09/2012 03:43:32 AM 520 Views
