This SCREAMS "bullshit." No creation date makes "so far" meaningless, no region specified... Hell, just today two police officers were shot and killed in a terrorist incident in Denmark.

Nope, no police officers were killed. Those who died were civilians.

Wasn't it the same debate where Obama ridiculed him for saying that Russia was the biggest geo-political threat we faced in 2012?

OBAMA: Governor Romney, I'm glad that you recognize that Al Qaida is a threat, because a few months ago when you were asked what's the biggest geopolitical threat facing America, you said Russia, not Al Qaida; you said Russia, in the 1980s, they're now calling to ask for their foreign policy back because, you know, the Cold War's been over for 20 years.

That was definitely true until all that bullcrap with Ukraine started in 2014 and it's probably still true now, though I could see why a person might disagree.

Romney saw it coming, other "Big Stick" politicians saw it coming, hell, even I saw it coming, all while he was telling Russian leaders that he'd have more flexibility after the election.

He needs to admit that he was wrong about both Russia and "JV team" ISIS if he wants to have any more credibility. Even his incompetent predecessor admitted he was wrong about foreign policy strategy (the troop surge).

Also, you say "2014" as if it took a long time for him to be proved right. If Romney won the 2012 election his presidency would have started in 2013. Obviously, the question was about what would be relevant during the next term. 2014 was only one year into the next term. Sounds pretty prescient.

Bush, as terrible as he was at foreign policy, admitted when he was wrong about the troop surge and his plans in Iraq. Obama can't even acknowledge that he was wrong to dismiss ISIS as "JV team" (Junior Varsity) in comparison to Al Qaeda. Of course he will not acknowledge that he was wrong to ridicule about Russia. He'd rather make good on his promises of "flexibility" with Russia "after the election" on issues related to missile defense. :rolleyes:
