Romney clearly knows more about foreign policy than Palin...
Mitt Romney: I can see Canada from my house in New Hampshire! I can see Europe from my house in Massachusetts. I can see Mexico from my California house!
Of course, he LIVED in France for a while as a Mormon missionary (pretty sweet, eh?), and his father was BORN in Mexico…and he’s SOLD off American jobs to China…
@grainbelt: What the heck? Romney’s exactly as American as Obama: American mother, foreign born father, born on American soil. I have no problem with the qualifications of either on residency. But he’s not “more American” than most of us. That claim can really only be made by Native Americans, depending on how far back you decide to go. I consider myself fully 100% American, because I’m here and I’m a citizen, and I believe in the American government and constitution.
Which; the “pledge of allegiance” is NOT “official”. The oath sworn to when becoming a citizen, or a government employee, or member of the military, IS! Violation is punishable under law. These oaths also call for the person to commit to action, as in “to defend against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC”. We have a lot of “flag wavers” unwilling to make that deep a commitment.
he says that he is a regular joe except the 5 houses in 5 states, accounts in CH, caymans, and tax shelters across the world. just like normal people….yeah, right.
He only has three houses? Compared to McCain, that makes him a slacker. Well in other ways too. BTW did McCain ever “get back to us” on how many houses he has?
the house is MA is the basement of his father’s house. and, he doesn’t rent out his houses or flips them, he lives in them. especially, if he is putting in an elevator in his CA home for his cars. on related note, he fired (forced out) an openly gay adviser after a right wing pundit had issues with that. the same right wing pundit now has issues with mormon mitt, because he didn’t push back and how would mormon mitt handle the PRC or russia or iran if he doesn’t push back.
Nope. He’s a rich dude NOW because he worked for it and earned it rather than inheriting it or getting special privileges. That’s the American way. Isn’t that what conservatives are supposed to applaud?

Is there some reason to compare Mitt to Sarah Palin on foreign policy or is it just “He owns several houses”?
