    Default Romney Camp to Reporters, "Kiss my Ass", "Shove it"!

    At a cite that is sacred to Polish People a Romney Staffer shouted for reporters to Kiss his Ass.


    The Reporters pointed out that they have not been alowed to ask any questions of the canidate since the fiasco at 10 Downing Street.


    The political issue here is that the president needs to surround himself with good people and when on a forign trip needs to be respectfull of the nation he is in. What a diplomatic fiasco this trip has been for Romney. The UGLY American for sure!

    Mitt Romney: Disenfranching Europe, one nation at a time.

    I gotta give him credit, though. It took Bush eight years to accomplish what he's done in a week!

    And you have evidence to support these claims...?
    "We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power." -O'Brien, Nineteen Eighty-Four

    I do!


    CNN: “Governor Romney are you concerned about some of the mishaps of your trip?

    NYT: “Governor Romney do you have a statement for the Palestinians?

    Washington Post: “What about your gaffes?

    NYT: “Governor Romney do you feel that your gaffes have overshadowed your foreign trip?”

    CNN: “Governor Romney just a few questions sir, you haven’t taken but three questions on this trip from the press!

    Gorka: “Show some respect”

    NYT: “We haven’t had another chance to ask a question…”

    Gorka: “Kiss my ass. This is a Holy site for the Polish people. Show some respect.”

    The press does need to shut the fuck up. I would almost consider voting for Romney based solely on this, but I know such badassery wouldn't last.

    Put it in context, Jarod. He said, "Show some respect." speaking about the site itself.

    The reality was the reporter was out of line. Sure Rick could have chosen a different colloquialism, but he wanted the guy to show some respect for the place they were in.

    When a reporter protested that the press hadn’t been allowed to ask Romney a question, Gorka lost it.

    "Kiss my ass. This is a holy site for the Polish people,” he barked. “Show some respect."

    It really would depend on why they yelled it. Let's say you were at my funeral asking about something stupid, shouting it to somebody who was going to lay a wreath. My daughter would likely tell you to kiss her ass and to shut up and show respect.

    Now, he did call to apologize for yelling at them, but reminding them of the place they are in and to stop shouting questions rather than pay attention to the gravity of the place isn't a bad thing, IMO. Now, you would have an awesome tape of Romney himself said it... but as it is... Not such a big deal.

    This won't be a big deal with Romney supporters as most of them can't stand the press anyway.

    That's right...ridicule the press for merely trying to do it's job...but cut the douchebag Romney aide all the slack he wants for his embarrassing outburst in public.

    Listen to yourself..."the press needs to shut the fuck up..." what country you think we live in anyway? Endless whining about Amendment #2 but nary a word from all these supposed constitutional "experts" on Republicans violating the 1st amendment.
