I agree that the Israel comments were calculated. Romney wants some of those Jewish votes and would say about anything to get them. When you start talking about one group being more culturally superior than another and the hand of providence playing a part, that doesn't strike me as good statemanship.
And by "say about anything", you mean Romney would actually stand by Israel. .....
This country already does stand by Israel.
Prime Minister Netanyahu would hotly dispute that.
As would the last four years of U.S./Israeli relations. The one that pissed me off the most was
someone very high up in the Obama administration leaking that Israel was using air bases in Azerbaijan to launch a potential strike on Iran, thus eliminating the element of surprise, and even the feasibility of such an attack by Israel.
Romney is just pandering to try to get votes and ended up insulting people.
That's such an empty and pathetic slander, in a futile attempt to divert attention from Obama's easily documented failures and treasonous deceit.
Even a great many Jewish voters see that it is Obama who is pandering, and in his betrayal of Israel has encouraged threats to both the U.S. and Israel that would otherwise not exist.
