From Phony Ads to Dangerous Actions
Candidate Romney's ads about the non-existing presidential apology tour have now been directly connected to dangerous actions.  While our service men and women are in harms way, and instead of rally behing our president, Romney wants the world to think the American people are divided on our determination to protect our own interests. 

That is dangerous and opportunistic and short sighted action the follows directly from his decision to mislead by pretending the president has been projecting weakness in killing bin laden, ending the war in Iraq, supporting Libyan efforts--in collaboration with our allies--to topple a Libyan dictator, and by all objective accounts enhancing the stature and influence of the US internationally.

And to the degree that Romney, in doing this, has moved from platitudes to specifics (and the move has been characteristically close to zero) we can see that his alternative actions, were he president, are just recycled neo-con nonsense we heard from Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Wolfowitz that got us into two costly wars instead of targeting those who actually attacked us on 911.

And the party that Romney represents has also demonstrated over the past three years a third type of dangerous action: a willingness to put party above country...and now that party and the Romney campaign think they can mislead us with ads claiming the failure of the government to do more to get us out of this recession, like the putative failure to protect American interests, should be seen as the president's failure, unrelated to their obstructionism.
