British media hammer Romney on Olympic comments

(The Ticket)-LONDON—On day three of his overseas tour, Mitt Romney woke up to unfriendly headlines from the British media, who continue to trash him for telling NBC News that he found preparations for the Olympics here "disconcerting."

"Mitt the Twit," declared The Sun tabloid, condemning Romney as a "wannabe president."



The Independent headlined their take on Romney's trip, "Romneyshambles"—accusing him of not only committing a diplomatic gaffe but later "the cardinal sin of U.S. politics, flip-flopping" on his criticism.

The Daily Telegraph suggested Romney's "Olympic gaffe" had overshadowed his trip to London.
Meanwhile, the conservative Daily Mail slammed Romney as "devoid of charm, offensive and a wazzock."

Romney's comments led newscasts on both Sky News and the BBC on Thursday night and early Friday morning, just hours ahead of the Olympic opening ceremonies here.

"Is this guy really prepared to be president?" one Sky News reporter asked in his Thursday night report about Romney's day in London. The reporter trashed the GOP candidate's comments as "just daft."

Romney has repeatedly tried to dial back his criticism, first in a news conference Thursday outside 10 Downing Street, where he had met with British Prime Minister David Cameron, who had been publicly critical of Romney's remarks earlier in the day.

In an interview with CNN's Piers Morgan Thursday night, Romney again tried to contain the controversy, telling the CNN host he believes the London games will be successful.

"It's great. It's absolutely fabulous," Romney said of being in London for the games. "You know I'd never been to an Olympics before I was given the Olympic job. I mean I've done the same thing everybody else did. I watched the games on TV. But to actually be here and to experience not just the athletes but also the volunteers who are working hard and excited, and then the whole community comes together…
It's fabulous."

Citing the "enthusiasm" of the people in London, Romney added, "I think you are going to see terrific games that will be long time in our memories."



*Mitt the twit; read the headline!

Finally; media outlets are finally "going in" on what we've been saying for some time about Mitt Romney.  He is a twit and then some!

We here at Diva's Nation have certainly voiced our opinion about "Mitt the twit" numerous times! We stated how out of touch he is with Americans. Plus we've stated how he acts and how fidgety he seems to be when around certain groups of people.  It's obvious he's not ready for the job of President due to his "all over the place" behavior and comments.

Think about it fellow Americans; "To go and visit our cousins across the pond and say something as ridiculous as what he said, is a epic hot mess!" 

If he was President he would embarrass our country every chance he got, because he simply don't know how to act.  He's not only off in his actions, but he's definitely off in his mind. 

"Mitt the twit" has alot of work to do before he can run this country!*
