Mitt Romney has been consistent in one line of attack against Barack Obama: He thinks the president apologizes too much to other nations, and doesn't stand up enough for America. That was the theme of his 2010 book, No Apology.
While mainstream media critics are panning Romney for the initial critical statement released by his State Department — a statement expressing condemnation of a U.S.-produced film that ham-handedly satirized Islam and the Prophet Mohammed — there's no doubt the presidential candidate and his foreign policy advisers believe they've found a card that could possibly pave the way into the White House. (Romney's statement was made before the public was aware of the deaths of the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three of his staff members.)
The mindset is that President Obama has been too naive — Jimmy Carter cloned. One neo-conservative who feels that way is Frank Gaffney, founder and president of the Center for Security Policy in Washington, D.C.
