Romney and his Foreign Policy – Does he have one?

[captain morgan]

Didn't ole Taliban Jack want to go and talk personally with those 'Taliban fellows'?

But that's an aside. The NDP's domestic policy in gutting domestic GDP via scaring away business through increasingly punitive taxes works in favor of Canadian business setting up shop overseas.

Nice little arrangement, eh? Dissuade domestic companies from operating in Canada, but we'll need to sell the raw materials to them in order to buy back the finished products.... In fact, weren't you pissing and moaning about this very issue on the thread that wondered why Canada doesn't have a oil/gas royalty regime similar to Norway?

Ah well, as per your MO - hypocrisy and a deep lack of understanding and knowledge abound in your perspective

I would advise people to look at the last 16 US Presidential elections. Not one candidate outlined exactly what their "Foreign Policy" would be. They gave some broad statements, but that was it.

How could anyone who wasn't President actually know enough to have a coherent detailed foreign policy?

Unless you were a complete policy wonk, you'd never have the time or knowledge to have any sort of detailed foreign policy until you were in office and being briefed on the issues.

In the USA, the opponent (or candidates) running for office, get regular weekly briefings on foreign intelligence, military operations, etc. This is required by law, and has been for many years. We do not want anyone coming into office without a clue as to what is going on in the world.

Bush the Lesser made it.

- Goober ... In a world full of change and uncertainty, it is somehow reassuring that we can always count upon you to be an uninformed, partisan, asinine left wing loon.

- Before becoming president, Bush had earned a history degree from Yale and an MBA from Harvard, had higher SATs and GPAs and IQ than the Donkey Party's 2004 genius John Kerry and probably higher SATs and undergrad GPAs than Obama whose marks are conveniently sealed, had flown combat jets in the Texas Reserve, started and ran and sold at a profit some oil and gas exploration companies, rescued the Texas Rangers from bankruptcy and the basement as their managing partner and was voted by the owners as the MLB executive of the year, beat a popular sitting Democratic governor (Ann Richards) in a then Democratic state to become the governor of the third largest state in the union and won re-election as governor with the highest margin n Texas history.

- Obama? Well, he was a "community organizer" meaning a sh$t disturbing rabble rouser on the mean streets of Chicago, a part time law school lecturer and a part time Illinois senator.

- Gee, I wonder who had the more relevant, extensive and impressive resume?

Well how did Bush the Lesser do- Iraq is an Iranian proxy- Afghanistan - stayed when they should have left.
