Romney defends insulting Palestinians: Hey, I also said Mexico's culture sucks! And Ecuador's too!
by Jed Lewison

.............................

Romney campaign spokeswoman Andrea Saul on Monday disputed reports of Romney’s comments. “We’ve asked for a correction for his remarks being grossly mischaracterized,” Saul said.

So Romneyland is whining about Mitt's remarks being taken out of context? Now that's rich. And what is the context they wish to point out? Umm:

For instance, the campaign said, after mentioning the per capita G.D.P. of Israel and Palestine, Mr. Romney also said: “And that is also between other countries that are near or next to each other. Chile and Ecuador, Mexico and the United States.”

1. Why doesn't he just say "All your mothers" and kick them in the balls?

[Wait Wut]

2. AAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

3. Winning hearts and minds all over the globe.

He is such a tool. I can't believe he's actually allowed into any foreign countries to begin with. He has clearly demonstrated that he is not a stateman, or even a decent guest. We cannot have someone like this running foreign policy.

4. Those "culture" ntiwits will never admit what that culture is.

England
Spain
America
South Africa
Israel

It is the culture of colonialism where the group with bigger guns steals from the other people and either enslaves them outright or does it through apartheid methods.

It's a fucking culture of theft that gets called "hard work" and "enterprise"

5. don't forget the Anglo Saxons and the Celts

and the American Mormons and the Meximormons

6. Truly an Ambassador for the 1% pompous, rude and oblivious.

At least Bush could be explained away as brain damaged from years of drinking and snorting coke.

7. I can't believe they're "doubling down" on this.

All I can say is: "keep it up", there's certainly some group you idiots have yet to insult.
