England to Mitt: SHUT UP!

Mitt's trip is really not going well.  It's the day before the Olympic opening ceremonies, and Mitt's repeated gaffes are front and center, instead of the anticipation of the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Talk about insulting all of the UK.  Mitt seemed quite clueless when he spoke about, "looking out of the backside of 10 Downing Street."  Are you kidding?  The backside Mitt, really?  Translation: Mitt was looking out of the ass of the Prime Minister's residence and headquarters.

The UK's Guardian has a full rundown of the long string of gaffes Mitt has made in just the last two days; I don't recall any American politician ever having committed so many gaffes in such a short period as to draw so much anger and mockery.
"The comparisons with Romney's trip to Europe and Obama's visit at almost exactly the same stage in the electoral cycle four years ago are almost too embarrassing to mention. Obama wooed a quarter of a million people in Berlin while Romney was mocked by the British prime minister." - The Guardian UK
"Mitt Romney is perhaps the only politician who could start a trip that was supposed to be a charm offensive by being utterly devoid of charm and mildly offensive." - UK Telegraph
I hear there's a guy called Mitt Romney who wants to know whether we're ready. He wants to know whether we're ready. Are we ready? - Mayor of London
Of course it’s easier if you hold an Olympic Games in the middle of nowhere. - Prime Minister Cameron
I don't think Mitt can keep his mouth closed long enough to stop the gaffes from coming, though.

Looks like President Obama is going to have to cross the Atlantic and smooth things over with our friends in Britain.

Once again, Mitt - aka right height trees - Romney strikes.
