More power to Romney for condemning attacks on our embassies, our rights to free speech, and standing strong in the defense of freedom.

A better question might be: Why has Obama attended less than half of his NSA briefings over the past year?
And where was Obama at 3:00 AM while the tweets coming out of the State Department (for 9 hours) were blaming Americans and American policies before he picks up on the theme.
More power to Romney for condemning attacks on our embassies, our rights to free speech, and standing strong in the defense of freedom.

Second, there isn't any free speech utterances you would ever condemn? None? For example, suppose some male member of your church congregation published a screed where he said that there's nothing wrong with forcing young girls into sexual slavery since the little @#$%& want to do it anyway and he has come to that realization from his reading of the Bible. You wouldn't condemn that? If you did condemn that, would that be the same as apologizing for your church?

Of course I would comdem it on both moral and legal (we do have laws about slavery and child sex) grounds. Sure he can say it. How would I be Conde ing the WHOLE church. It's the rantings of single man.
As far as this movie goes, again the rantings of a single man, but when a foreign embassy issues an apology it is speaking for the nation as if we are all complicit. WE can't control his content. WE can't control his speech. WE don't need to apologize.

And this from Politico
The Obama administration is disavowing a statement from its own Cairo embassy that seemed to apologize for anti-Muslim activity in the United States.
"The statement by Embassy Cairo was not cleared by Washington and does not reflect the views of the United States government," an administration official told POLITICO.
The U.S. embassy in Cairo put out a statement early Tuesday that was pegged to anger over an anti-Muslim film being circulated by an Israeli-American real estate developer.
"The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims – as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions," the embassy said in a statement published online.
Sounds like an apology to me.

"There's a broader lesson to be learned here: Governor Romney seems to have a tendency to shoot first and aim later, and as president, one of the things I've learned is you can't do that," Obama said in an interview with CBS News on Wednesday. "It's important for you to make sure that the statements that you make are backed up by the facts and that you've thought through the ramifications before you make them."
When asked if he found Romney's statement "irresponsible," Obama responded, "I'll let the American people judge that."
We will, Mr. President, we will.

In today's media soundbites "No comment" is taken to mean "I have no defense".
The Democratic Party finaly woke up and isn't allowing the spin machines to run unchecked this time around. Not dignifying with a response is how Kerry got Swiftboated and so that tactic bas been retired.
