Mitt Romney, Surrender Monkey

Even on a good day, it’s hard to take Michelle Malkin seriously, but on a day such as this in which Mitt Romney, presumptive Repug presidential nominee on behalf of all of the fundie hypocrites, says that “it’s not worth heaven and earth” to try and capture bin Laden, it is impossible.

See, the woman who defended the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II alleges, with the help of a couple of her acolytes here (h/t Atrios), that the Democrats should be considered “the white feather party” in light of the recent passage of the Iraq Supplemental with timelines for troop withdrawal.

Now I ask that you consider this while reflecting on mcjoan’s great post on Romney that I linked to above. You know, the one where Romney thinks it’s too much trouble to utilize any and all resources from the country that is supposed to be the most powerful on earth to capture and, if at all possible, kill outright the individual responsible for the worst terrorist attack on our soil.

Here is a link to information on the 9/11 Memorial Garden in Lower Makefield, Pa. From there, you can read the stories of the 17 fellow Americans from Bucks County, Pa. who died on that most horrific of days. And, inasmuch as my own words on this subject matter for anything, here is a prior post.

As I noted here, Romney had planned a little while back to give a speech something along the lines of John F. Kennedy’s speech stating that his religion was secondary to the political office that he sought. I’m still waiting to hear about Romney’s supposed visionary words on that subject. Or did he bail out on that also because of the same tone deafness and cowardice he portrayed in his remarks on terrorism?
