Gross description, but accurate nonetheless. Seriously. Is there a better way to describe this sickening spectacle?
Despite the fact that Mitt Romney was right about Russia all along, his op-ed in this morning’s Wall Street Journal is provoking gleeful scorn from a trio of Obama toadies, namely Time’s Mark Halperin, former Obama staffer Tommy Vietor, and White House jackass Dan Pfeiffer.
Behold:
Op-ed by @MittRomney in @WSJ hits @BarackObama foreign policy. http://t.co/E8zXd6PWk5. Critical analysis, I-told-you-so and/or Mitt '16?
— Mark Halperin (@MarkHalperin) March 18, 2014
.@MarkHalperin @MittRomney @WSJ @BarackObama Lots of blaming America for the world's problems. Zero ideas for how to solve them. Typical.
— Tommy Vietor (@TVietor08) March 18, 2014
@TVietor08 @MarkHalperin @MittRomney @WSJ @BarackObama safe to assume this isn't a 2 part piece where all the solutions come next?
— J. Goldman -Archived (@Goldman44) March 18, 2014
.@pfeiffer44 There *were* solutions:, @MittRomney tells @BarackObama he needs better timing. Over to you.
— Mark Halperin (@MarkHalperin) March 18, 2014
@MarkHalperin Interesting choice to go the entire 2012 campaign without laying ANY of them out.This op ed is as vacuous as the 12 platform
— J. Goldman -Archived (@Goldman44) March 18, 2014
The irony of yutz like Pfeiffer calling something else “vacuous” doesn’t escape us. It doesn’t escape these people, either:
@RBPundit President Petulant and his team of merry manchildren strike again! He's so cool. @pfeiffer44

What were Obama's solutions again? Oh, right. Mocking Romney. How'd that work out? @pfeiffer44 @TVietor08 @MarkHalperin @MittRomney

@pfeiffer44 really doesn't want you to remember that Obama made fun of Romney pointing out Russia would do exactly what they are. #amatuer

These clowns don’t have facts on their side, so they have to resort to slinging mud, desperately hoping that some of it will stick.

So the official WH line is "Romney didn't offer solutions!" Is that it? On the record? @pfeiffer44 @TVietor08 @MarkHalperin @MittRomney

@pfeiffer44 @TVietor08 @MarkHalperin @MittRomney @WSJ Translation: Mitt, PLEASE write 2nd op-ed so we can get ideas from someone competent.

@pfeiffer44 @MarkHalperin not enough meaningless "red lines" drawn for your taste I see.
— Pouncing Coder Brad (@bradcundiff) March 18, 2014
Weird. Your boss's solution was to pretend all was well. It wasn't. @pfeiffer44 @TVietor08 @MarkHalperin @MittRomney

@redsteeze @pfeiffer44 @MarkHalperin A better solution than a mis-translated "Reset" button? Unpossible.

.@pfeiffer44 I get that you don't like being proved wrong, but: grow up. My kids have to live in this world you're making. @MarkHalperin
— Moe Lane (@Ogiel23) (@moelane) March 18, 2014
Asking them to grow up is a pretty tall order. Case in point:
Meanwhile Obama is busy filling out his brackets and muttering: "Russia is NOT our geo-political foe". @pfeiffer44 @TVietor08 @MarkHalperin

@pfeiffer44 solutions: more golf.

@redsteeze @pfeiffer44 @MarkHalperin Because filling out a #MarchMadness bracket seated between two ferns = laser-like focus on solutions.

@RBPundit It's not easy to come up with a .gif that relates to Crimea! Give them time! @pfeiffer44 @TVietor08 @MarkHalperin @MittRomney

Instead of offering solutions, your boss opted for one liners. You don't get to whine, Dan @pfeiffer44 @TVietor08 @MarkHalperin @MittRomney

That’s a safe bet.

.@pfeiffer44 vacuous indeed- it lacked subtsance of binders full of women & war on women, but alas you play hand you're dealt @MarkHalperin

Check and mate.
