Default Romney visits Western Wall ahead of tough speech on Iran

Man is Mitt right or should we just keep things the way they are. Or worst allow some items be pulled from the table?

.Romney visits Western Wall ahead of tough speech on Iran

By Holly Bailey, Yahoo! News | The Ticket – 5 hrs ago. 29 July 2012 .........

Romney at the Western Wall (Charles Dharapak/AP)

JERUSALEM—Mitt Romney made an unannounced visit to the Western Wall in Israel's Old City of Jerusalem Sunday, one of the most sacred sites in Judaism.

The visit came after several hours of meetings with top Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Shimon Peres. It came ahead of a speech Romney is to deliver later Sunday in which he is expected to voice a more aggressive stance toward Iran's attempts to develop a nuclear weapon.

Briefing reporters ahead of the speech, Dan Senor, a foreign policy adviser to the GOP candidate, said Romney would back Israel if the country launched a unilateral military strike to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear capability—though the campaign was quick to emphasize the candidate is hopeful that diplomatic measures will prevent that from happening.

"Gov. Romney believes we should employ any and all measures to dissuade the Iranian regime from its nuclear course, and it is his fervent hope that diplomatic and economic measures will do so," Senor told reporters. "In the final analysis, of course, no option should be excluded. Gov. Romney recognizes Israel's right to defend itself, and that it is right for America to stand with it."

2,853 comments. Of the ones I read I have to believe they were not from the GOP.

Gee enough with the visiting the walls already. I guess he'll also visit the Berlin site where the wall was.
Some times you should just let sh*t die.

He's visiting walls to get an idea for the Wall he wants to build along the southern border of the U.S. I wonder when he will tell us which type of wall would be best suited and cheaper to build...

Sorry, had to make something up because I don't think Willard is serious about his plans for Iran. He's just pandering to Israel because his new Billionaire Pimp is a big supporter of Israel.

1. The superfence probably won't be built under a Romney administration. We've gone through a few D and R presidents without getting a complete border fence, my expectations are about as low as anyone's.

2. We're already tougher than ever on Iran. We recently enacted yet another round of economic sanctions on top of what we've already done, Iranian nuclear facilities are plagued with virus after virus after virus through some covert ops, and their engineers are being blown up assassination-style. Romney adds nothing new to the table other than somehow respecting a nation's decision to strike another militarily, potentially igniting a regional Middle Eastern war. I wonder if all of that psuedo-bravado nonsense will help pay for the extra couple of bucks per gallon at the gas pump.

Which might stop events like the PU Truck overloaded and crashed killing around 12 and hurting many others. Or the many crimes some do! Including muders, home invasions break ins, etc.

What is needed is more than the Dream Act. It is simple and yet many just don't get it.

Update the Immigration policys for Mexican's citizens wanting to become citizens
of this country.

And what better timing could we have than right now? When some are leaving because of the job market and the crack down by ICE and other govt., agencies.

Thats right sense Obama has been in office we ship each week about 100 back to their own countries. Mostly the ones getting caught for crimes.

More each week than under Bush or any other POTUS........

And of the 2 planes each week I have seen on CNBC several were born here and don't even speak their native languages.

So whats your thoughts on this bit of news you didn't know about? Or my comments on the policies? And please don't tell you knew about this as you would be backing my position, which I have stated several time before..
