Another glaring example of Romney stupidity

When you called me a bigot for my comments about Mormonism were you apologising for me?

If I released a statement directly to Mormons hoping they wouldn't kill Ambassadors then, yes. It would be apologia. However, since I was simply telling you what you were doing then no. Had the Ambassador sent a letter to the makers of that film telling them they were bigots it wouldn't be the same thing as trying to soothe hurt feelings of their target. The difference would be in the goal. I was not out there trying to tell Mormons that everybody wasn't that ignorant of their religion, I was simply telling you that your deliberate ignorance amounted to bigotry, especially when you were informed of the truth and continued to press it.
 
The Embassy in Cairo apologized for "hurting religious feelings", the WH recanted that, then the State Department went and re-apologized...

The Press Release from the US Embassy in Cairo:

Excuse me for interrupting my self-imposed exile.

From the Breitbart quote:

...even as Islamist radicals raided the building on the 11th anniversary of 9/11

What a lie...the Embassy statement was put out SIX HOURS before the attack.

And you wonder why the Republicans, and Romney in particular, have no credibility. As well as you. This place is like Political Forum, except worse.

Back to my forum..., but before I go....how's your troop of conservative trolls doing? Is anyone yet capable of intelligent conversation here, Damo?


Hi to all my friends! Come by and visit!

No, I mean when I see Breitbart, Newsmax, Fox News, Daily Kos, MSNBC, Drudge or other propaganda sites I think, "Well this lacks credibility."

Damo, it's just absolutely asinine to call what the Embassy stated, to diffuse an incident, as an apology or appeasment. Particularly when you propagate the notion that the statement was made after the attack.

It's this arrogant attitude is why Americans are not well liked abroad. Call me when you've demonstrated that you and the rest of us Americans are perfect and I'll buy that line of horseshit which, until then, shall remain a line of horse shit. There is nothing wrong with the embassy saying "Hey, we think this guy who made that film is an asshole too!" to help diffuse a potentially violent situation. It was a responsible thing to do.
 
I'm also not against the statement. Saying that some dudes making a movie isn't the policy of the US isn't a bad thing. That it came so close to the attacks on the Libyan Embassy caused it to appear something that it was not. It underlines something that I've always found interesting. The US Army burns brand new bibles in Afghanistan, nobody riots. The US Army burns Korans that were defaced by prisoners and people riot... Piss-Christ, nobody dies. Cartoon of Muhammad, people die. There is some moral superiority here.
 
Look... you people have turned from 'revolutionaries' to 'reactionaries' and you don't even seem to realize it. You and Obama's whole shtick was to "apologize" for the Bush Doctrine, American Exceptionalism, and U.S. Foreign Policy the past 60 years in the Middle East. Obama's very first trip abroad was dubbed "The Apology Tour" and you now want to pretend none of these things have ever transpired, and you guys have always been wavin' the flag and singin' Yankee Doodle!

You're a bunch of lying pathological morons, who don't comprehend what other people see.
Just because you and your ilk called an apology tour does not make it true.

I just don't agree and think you are not being realistic. Telling person A that what person B did it bigoted is not an apology! It's silly claim so, and makes your candidate look weak and desperate.

So, my brother insults my neighbor with a bigoted comment, while by neighbors trying to burn my house down and kill me I shout... My brother is a bigot. You are going to claim I apologized?
 
LOL You freaken pussy Dixie! The GOP has been playing beneath the belt low ball, dirty pool politics for 40 years and finally there's a Democrat who's not a pussy who gives it back to you and you have the hypocritical gall to cry about it?

See this Dixie <->? It's the smallest CD player in the world and it's playing "My heart pumps pee for you!" LOL


AAAAAHHHHH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA...WHHHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

I almost wrote exactly the same thing but I held off at the last minute.

Dixie needs him some tissue so he can sit right down and have himself a good cry!
 
Simply not apologies. A condemnation of someone's bigoted comments is not an apology. In fact its a clear statement that you are not responsable for that persons actions.l


Note also that Damo has dropped the precept of "independence" and is now posting nonsense directly from partisan bullshit sites like "Breitbart"...

Another lie...

The ONLY people who dubbed Obama's first trip abroad "The Apology Tour" was hate-filled partisan Righties out to get even with the man for winning in 2008.
