I'll gove Romney a pass for a different reason. he wasn't the one who made the comment. He should, however, hire better people. If you surround yourself with idiots, people assume you are one as well. This is a very good example of that.

Romney did enough damage in Israel.....

quote: ORIGINAL: Marc2b Just once I'd like to see the President or some other politician or candidate listen to to some reporter's inane, condescending, question and then reply, "Jane, you ignorant slut." The chimp used to do that to warm up for his press briefings. There's a couple of cases on record of him mocking afflicted hacks.

quote: imo, the aide was just as disrespectful as the news-hungry reporters (& the ignorant slut) are.. dont you think the reporters live for instances like this?? And what does that say about their character? quote: why fall into that trap? It was really very stupid, and the aide knows this or he wouldnt have apologized half an hour later (but a bit too late cuz now he has those around him thinking he isnt up for the job and he has made his boss look bad as well).. There are ways of dressing down reporters in public without making yourself and your boss look like boobs.. He apologized because that's what's expected. Politics is filled with insincere apologies. Whether that particular aide's apology was sincere or not, I don't know but I'm willing to bet that "those around him" probably felt the same way he did at that moment.

It doesn't matter how well you vet people, you can't know everything about somebody and therefore some bad apples will get through. Nor does somebody having a momentary lapse due to frustration make them a bad apple. But nooooooo, people have to glom onto it and make a big fucking deal about it.

I dont care what it says about the reporters, its their job to dig up dirt. If an aide loses his cool like that & so easily, then imo he shouldnt be doing that job.. He is just not in control of himself and not trained well enough.. but then I have never been impressed by hot-heads.. Of course an apology is expected, the aide was wrong.. Even if those around him probably felt the same way he did at that moment, he still made them all look bad and imo, he got his arse kicked around the block for not being civil.. No matter how you feel about reporters, two wrongs do not make a right..

Seems to me we are slowly getting a list of people who are not allowed to question Romney on here. The left, foreigners, reporters....... And thats just off the top of my head. [8\|]

Any other professional pulls a stunt like that, they're fired. I deal with fuckwittery every day of the week in my work. Do I have outbursts at the people responsible? NO. This guy has a nice cushy 6 figure job with lots of perks. If he can't handle it, his ass needs to be shipped home and someone found who will reflect well on his employer. A politician can't afford to have representatives who act like they have Tourette's in public.

Ron Paul has support all around the world, literally. Romney... not so much! :D

quote: I dont care what it says about the reporters, its their job to dig up dirt. Again, what does that say about someone's character if they regard it as their job to "dig up dirt" rather than the truth? quote: If an aide loses his cool like that & so easily, then imo he shouldnt be doing that job.. He is just not in control of himself and not trained well enough.. but then I have never been impressed by hot-heads.. Who says it was "so easily?" Does this guy have a reputation for loosing his cool? If so then you have a case, if not, then how about cutting him a little slack? In a job where loosing one's cool could endanger lives (eg, airline pilot, 911 dispatcher) a much higher standard is understandable but in this case... ? And the fact that some politician's aide told a reporter to kiss his ass is not the issue as I see it. The issue is the utter ridiculousness of people making such a big deal about it, the extrapolation of this non-issue into "AND THIS IS WHY WE MUST NOT VOTE ROMNEY!," and the expectation that I'll go along with this farce. There are plenty of reasons not to vote for Romney in regard to his stance on issues... This utterly insignificant "issue" is not one of them.

I guess nobody really cares about the dipshit aide, so long as Willard throws the fucker under the bus, when he loses the bid for presidency.

I am saying that in the grand scheme of things it doesn't amount to much. So, no one is ever allowed a do-over where you work? No room for compassion at all?

Moonhead -> RE: Poland's turn to get dissed by Romney. (7/31/2012 12:32:02 PM)
Certainly nobody gave a damn about the aide to that chimp who was justifying stopping the Florida recount because the state was full of wetbacks and liberals...

quote: He didn't have the balls to do that when he was actually being filmed if Cheney wasn't there to hold his hand. It's a damn shame because it would have made things a lot more entertaining. Just once I would like to see a President respond to some inane question from a reporter with... "What? Are you fucking stupid?" I know that a lot of people think that would be the end of that President's career but I think it would guaranteeing a reelection because millions of Americans would leap up from their chairs and couches, raise their arms in the air and shout, "FINALLY!"
