The Romney campaign is so delighted with Corey Booker's criticism of the President's Anti-Bain capital ad, they are finishing out the afternoon with a new ad. "Have you had enough of President OBama's attacks on Free Enterprise?" reads the ad. "His own key supporters have."
NATO has kept the peace in Europe for more than six decades. But today, the alliance is at a crossroads. It is time to speak candidly about the challenges facing the United States and our allies and how to rise to them. In a post-Cold War world, territorial defense of Europe is no longer NATO's one overriding mission.
In Chicago Tribune op-ed on Sunday, Mitt Romney accused President Obama of undermining NATO. “At the same time that President Obama has been weakening our military, he has sent the message — intentionally or not — that the worth of NATO has diminished in America’s eyes,” Mr. Romney wrote. The op-ed was published as Mr. Obama and other world leaders are gathering in Chicago Sunday and Monday for a NATO summit meeting.
NATO has kept the peace in Europe for more than six decades. But today, the alliance is at a crossroads. It is time to speak candidly about the challenges facing the United States and our allies and how to rise to them. In a post-Cold War world, territorial defense of Europe is no longer NATO's one overriding mission. Instead, the alliance has evolved to uphold security interests in distant theaters, as in Afghanistan and Libya.
The 2012 presidential campaign has its own “bridge to nowhere.” Mitt Romney used a 19th-century stone bridge here today to anchor his attacks against President Barack Obama, calling the 2009 economic stimulus the “largest one-time careless expenditure of government money in America’s history.”“This is the absolute bridge to nowhere if there ever was one,” Romney told supporters as he motioned to the stone bridge behind him.
This week the Obama campaign debuted its attack on Bain Capital, the private-equity firm Mitt Romney founded. Its two-minute ad purports to tell the story of GS Technologies, a Kansas City-based Bain investment that went bankrupt in 2001. To hear the Obama campaign, this is a tale of greed: GST was a healthy, happy, quality steelmaker until Bain plundered its worth and stripped its 750 workers of their due.
What would a President Romney do on Day One? That’s the question of this new positive ad from the Romney campaign, which says that Romney’s first priorities would be approving the Keystone pipeline, cutting taxes and overhauling the tax code, and “replacing Obamacare with commonsense health care reform.”
Mitt Romney's campaign released a new web video Thursday critical of Vice President Biden's assertion that most non-union autoworkers "did fine" in the aftermath of the auto bailout. Some non-union autoworkers employed by parts manufacturer Delphi are suing over lost benefits resulting from the auto bailout and subsequent restructuring of General Motors.
