London vs Mitt Romney

Mitt Romney and politicians in the UK have had a few choice words for each other.

Mitt Romney's Olympic Comments Creates Stir in London - Yahoo!

It is unclear whether it was entirely the result of a gaffe or that Romney is a pompous wanker, either way he's off to a flying start in his attempt to pick up exactly where George W. Bush left off.

Maybe he should wait until he's the actual President before making cockey remarks. I remember Atlanta having a bomb when it hosted the Olympics so obviously the US didn't get it right.

It stands to be questioned whether or not he'd be able to provide effective foreign policy if he is president when he can't get along with our best allies. I'd hate to see what his banter with Russia is.

If you're going to make a trip to London to tell the local government they are incompetent, that would by definition make you a wanker in British parlance. Any other expletive is not as succint.

"Truly great wankers possess a kind of glib narcissism, the belief that everything is about them while simultaneously disavowing any responsibility for anything. ... Such wankers are impervious to criticism because they're always doing battle with straw critics. They never remember what they said last week, and assume you won't either." ~ Atrios

That being stated by someone else, if you're going to tell the best of friends you have in the world they are incompetent because you're a big shot pundit that can do better, chances are you're not the best candidate to be president of your country and in charge of foreign policy.

Romney's grasp of and attempts at foreign policy are rather alarming. Dealing with Iran and Russia ineffectively is nothing short of apocalyptic at this moment in the space-time continuum.
