After the first debate, Obama clearly got Romney's number. He realized that Mittens was a shameless liar, and any attempt at being reasonable with Mr. Twoface was futile. So for the final debate, once again Obama handed Mittens his ass and showed him the door.
Obama:
Governor Romney, I’m glad that you recognize that Al Qaida is a threat, because a few months ago when you were asked what’s the biggest geopolitical threat facing America, you said Russia, not Al Qaida; you said Russia, in the 1980s, they’re now calling to ask for their foreign policy back because, you know, the Cold War’s been over for 20 years.
But Governor, when it comes to our foreign policy, you seem to want to import the foreign policies of the 1980s, just like the social policies of the 1950s and the economic policies of the 1920s.
You say that you’re not interested in duplicating what happened in Iraq. But just a few weeks ago, you said you think we should have more troops in Iraq right now. And the -- the challenge we have -- I know you haven’t been in a position to actually execute foreign policy -- but every time you’ve offered an opinion, you’ve been wrong.
Whomp!
Obama also, basically calls Romney stupid in this exchange:
But I think Gov. Romney maybe hasn't spent enough time looking at how our military works," the president continued. "You mentioned the Navy, for example. And that we have fewer ships that we had in 1916. Well, governor, we also have fewer horses and bayonets because the nature of our military has changed."
"We have these things called aircraft carriers where planes land on them. We have these ships that go underwater, nuclear submarines. And so, the question is not a game of Battleship where we're counting ships, it's what are our capabilities?
I wonder what the wingers think of 'ole Mittens now? They all thought his bullying and blustering was so great in the first debate. But when he actually has to speak as if he has a clue, nothing, nada, zip. In the dictionary, next to the phrase "empty suit", there's a picture of Mitt Romney. I'm just sayin'.
