What a dangerous lunatic. Fortunately he will never be elected president.
There were troubling suggestions of war coming out of Republicans at the RNC in Tampa. Mitt Romney reiterated this on Thursday, when he accepted his party's 2012 nomination for president of the United States.
Romney criticized President Obama for not using force against Iran to stop their nuclear program, saying that he "has failed to slow Iran's nuclear threat." But he also made comments about the relationship between the United States and Russia that implied a willingness to ignite another Cold War. Romney said that President Obama was "eager to give Russia's president Putin the flexibility he desires after the election."
Add those comments to Romney's economic plan, which adds another $1 trillion to the defense budget, and Americans have serious cause for concern.
Talk of war at a political convention by a candidate with absolutely no foreign policy experience should send up a warning flag to a war-weary nation. And while trying to garner support for new wars, Romney conspicuously failed to mention the decade of fighting in Afghanistan that has not only cost America trillions of dollars, it has also taken more than 2,000 American lives.

Currently POTUS Obama is steadily killing enemies, civilian's and others at an incredible rate.
Romney Has not killed anyone, started a war or continued a war with any nation and never has.
So, Obama bombs al queerda/taliban in afagistan BUT is helping them in Syria, so who is the lunatic here?
POTUS Barack H. Obama aka Barry Sortero/Dunham/Davis has even ordered the death of an American citizen in Yemen via predator drone.

Fuck Romney. He should have learned by watching Bush Jr. that war doesn't fix economies any more. The choices we have this year for president make me want to move to the Alaskan wilderness for a few years. We're at a turning point and there are no turns that can be made without alot of excruciating pain.

Romney isn't reigniting the Cold War, Putin has already started that. Putin, who claimed that the collapse of the Soviet Union was one the greatest geopolitical catastrophes, has been intent on stoking tension with the US. Multiple bombers probing Alaskan air defenses, Akula subs patrolling in the Gulf of Mexico, actively aiding Iran's nuclear program, preventing any UN action within Syria, the list goes on. Putin's strategy is to continue to distract the US with regional conflicts in the Mid More..

'Putin's strategy is to continue to distract the US with regional conflicts in the Middle East while he quietly positions Russia towards a position of strength against the US and China'.
Absolutely bizarre.

@wormhole Seriously, he's Mormon. How can you put your trust into a Mormon. He might as well be a scientologist, its just as far-fetched. I know i know christianity is also just as far-fetched. Why would anyone want these ppl in power.

My favorite from the convention was Clint Eastwood talking to the chair ("Obama") asking it/him "why didn't you check with the Russians before invading Afghanistan?" And went on about how he fucked up by starting the war there. It was amazing. Sad. But amazing.

You Yanks are fucked either way. Obama - and you're bankrupt. Romney - and you have a new Cold War and his Mormon faith guiding him.
Yay.
I'm glad I'm not black, as - according to the Mormons - black people are all bad / evil people. There are all kinds of weird and stupid shit in that 'Religion'. Everybody can aspire to be God, for example.
Vote for a Canadian if you can, we'll sort all this shit out for you
