That’s a George W. Bush-ism if there ever was one.
Yep, Obama got Osama and yes, Mitt would had just asked for permission.
And always whirling, whirling, whirling…
“I got bin Laden.” Drink!
Not poll-tested. YES!
Finally, BOB grew a set and shut Mitt up. You know what pisses me off? Mitt is HEEDING the mod’s direction in this debate. I wonder why that is… couldn’t have anything to do with Bob having a penis, could it? Gosh, of course not.
To be fair, I’ll give Romney credit for smacking down that hypothetical. It was stupid no matter who it was directed too.
Maybe Mitt could have gotten Osama Bin Laden to self-deport.
It was a fairly silly hypothetical, I admit. I still would have liked to hear them both answer it.
Romney looks uncomfortable listening to Obama telling a personal story about 9/11.
Here goes Mitt trying to get the last word - SHUT DOWN by the moderator. That was beautiful.
“He’s on the ropes… the ref is looking into his corner… no towel yet…”
I really didn’t like the dive into the story about “Peyton.” He was doing well pointing out Romney’s flip flopping and his own decisiveness, and suddenly a maudlin story that really wasn’t relevant and was just more “Bin Laden’s dead.” Maybe that was smart but it doesn’t impress me, especially when his answer started out so good.
Romney: “We don’t dictate to other countries … we free other countries.”
Sounds like he really, really wants to dictate to Iran, and Syria, and China.
On to the war in Afghanistan.
Romney now pivoting to making a great case for Obama’s Afghanistan policy.
WHY? Do you not know what a moderator is?
“With respect, you laid out quite a program, governor.”
Moderator, I owe you a Beer…
Romney now willing to give a date for withdrawal from Afghanistan. Wasn’t he against this just last week?
But didn’t you like the violins in the background during the Peyton story?
(I swear I heard violins.)
