Shorter Willard: "Only white people can relate to England"
Posted by Jill | 6:18 AM
Open mouth, insert foot:
As the Republican presidential challenger accused Barack Obama of appeasing America's enemies in his first foreign policy speech of the US general election campaign, advisers told The Daily Telegraph that he would abandon Mr Obama’s “Left-wing” coolness towards London.

In remarks that may prompt accusations of racial insensitivity, one suggested that Mr Romney was better placed to understand the depth of ties between the two countries than Mr Obama, whose father was from Africa.

“We are part of an Anglo-Saxon heritage, and he feels that the special relationship is special,” the adviser said of Mr Romney, adding: “The White House didn’t fully appreciate the shared history we have”.

Give Willard a microphone, and sooner or later he always shows his true colors. Whether it's "Corporations are people, my friend" or "I'm not concerned about the very poor...we have a safety net there", or "I should tell my story... I'm also unemployed." said to a group of actual unemployed people, or "I get speaker's fees from time to time, but not very much", said about the $374,000 in speaking fees he made in just one year, sooner or later (usually sooner), Romney always reveals what he is: a believer in the privilege of white males who inherited a name and money from their fathers, a rich asshole whose "job creation" record consists of sucking huge fees out of dying companies while decimating them interspersed with a very few instances of sustaining, not creating, a bunch of minimum-wage service jobs, a racist, elitist fuck for whom the presidency is nothing more than another thing he can amass in a vain effort to fill the giant black hole in his soul that nothing can ever fill.

Too bad for Romney the British can't vote for him. Not even those who read the Daily Telegraph.
