How to impress people with your foreign policy experience the Romney way

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/romney-spokesman-blasts-british-paper-false-quote-anglo-184521146.html

Spokesman Ryan Williams angrily denounced the comment on Wednesday as "an anonymous and false quote from a foreign newspaper."

Nothing makes those "foreign" people your visiting like you like telling them their papers are some how foreign. The original criticism was that even in context the Anglo-Saxon comment seem to imply something "other" and inferior about Obama, just as their now angry denouncement seems to imply something "other" and inferior about foreign newspapers. But besides that I'm sure Romney hasn't insulted too many foreigners he is visiting on this trip. On the bright side at least Romney doesn't reserve talking down to people to just average Americans and the president.
