This after he insulted the United Kingdom by saying we couldn't organise a p*ss up in a brewery (or words to that effect).

Sadly things went from bad to worse as the tour continued.

In a keynote speech, he declared Jerusalem to be the capital of Israel, even though US policy holds that the city's designation is a matter for negotiations between the Israelis and Palestinians.

He was accused of racism after he told an audience of Jewish donors that cultural differences explained why Israel's economy was much larger than that of the Palestinians.

He tried to praise the Polish trade union movement, Solidarity, for helping to topple Communist rule, but Solidarity were not having anything to do with him, given his history of attacks on trade unions in the US.

During the whole tour, he only answered three questions from US reporters, prompting his Press Secretary to answer legitimate questions from the reporters with "Kiss my ass" and "Shove it"

The only thing missing was his trousers falling down as he boarded the flight home, which would have been entirely in keeping with the tone of his tour.

You should perhaps keep in mind that for most yanks the rest of the world doesn't exist ... or at least, exists only in order to be ignored or invaded.

Criticism of Romney by the foreign media will probably increase his popularity among the GOP faithful. As long as he remains commited to lowering taxes, expanding the military, giving the private sector carte blanche to do anything they damn well want, banning abortion, breaking unions, making access to guns easier, repealing Obamacare ... well you get the picture ... millions of yanks will vote for him ... even if his pants fall down as he accepts the nomination of the Republican Party.

True but depressing Eric.

And scary.

You've spend too long in front of a mirror,

Perhaps you're still in touch with the 60's, did you mean chauvinism?

Whichever you meant, managed to show your intelligence, (lack of), once more.

We aren't likely to find out, he probably doesn't know, as for women, I long to re-apply hands on experience, with a deep sigh and thank you Madam afterwards.

I haven't seen much of Romney but since the dear ol' folks of the USA officially elected George W Bush (possibly the most dangerous man who ever walked the planet) as their premier citizen TWICE it wouldn't surprise me to see Obama replaced with an inferior candidate.

God bless America.
