And Now Yemen

A day after the September 11 attacks on US diplomatic compounds in Egypt and Libya in which four Americans, including US Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens, were killed, a mob has stormed the US embassy in Sanaa, Yemen.  They breached the walls and set fires to vehicles and tires.  They also tore down and burned an American flag.  There are unconfirmed reports of casualties after security guards opened fire.

In the wake of  the September 11 attacks, Mitt Romney seized the opportunity to blame the President and score cheap political points.  Even after it was proven that he was factually incorrect, he stuck to his lie that the President was sympathizing with the mob.  This picture of Mitt smirking as he leaves the podium, even as the tragic events were still unfolding, says it all. We'll see how he blames violence in Yemen on the President.  

American embassies were attacked and Mitt's first instinct is to exploit the situation for cheap political points.    Mitt Romney simply doesn't have what it takes to be President.

Mitt doesn't have what it takes to be a decent human being.
