Netanyahu: Romney Lying About Their Friendship
byTeam Sarah4Choice

Bibi Netanyahu told Vanity Fair:

“I remember him (Romney) for sure, but I don’t think we had any particular connections, I knew him and he knew me, I suppose.”
~Bibi Netanyahu, July 2012 in Vanity Fair Interview

But, to hear the pathological liar, Mitt Romney, tell it the two were as thick as thieves (no pun intended) while they both worked at Bain Consulting Group in the 1970s (not to be confused with Bain Capital.)
Romney to the New York Times:

ROMNEY: "We (Mitt & Netanyahu) can almost speak in shorthand. We share common experiences and have a perspective and underpinning which is similar."

[no_hypocrisy]

1. I don't know which one, but either Romney or Netanyahu is lying.

And if it's Netanyahu, he's lying about Romney lying.

[Avalux]

37. Does it matter?

Even if they are best buds and Netanyahu is lying to distance himself, it's a good thing.

I think Mittens is the liar in this case though.

[russspeakeasy]

2. Ya gotta love it !

[Enrique]

3. he also claimed Joe Namath ate dinner at his house

every time he was in town.

[Lucy Goosey]

4. It's like Romney doesn't know the things he says can be fact-checked

He really just thinks that everything he says is true by virtue of him having said them, doesn't he? Because he's a rich, handsome, Anglo-Saxon, dammit, and how dare us peasants to even think about checking up on what he says!

[randome]

9. Does anyone really think he's handsome?

His head is too big. And those graying temples do not come across well, IMO.

[monmouth]

10. He's attractive in that Michelle Bachmann sort of way. Nice looking people until

they open their mouths...

[Scootaloo]

15. He's attractive in that "White Dad from the 50's" way

If you like to imagine Ward Cleaver being hard on your beaver, Romney's your kind of guy.

[uponit7771]

17. +1

[MissMarple]

25. "Pleasantville" the movie.

He's from Pleasantville.

[Cleita]

16. No. He's photogenic, meaning he has regular features, but his

dead, beady eyes and thin lips are very unattractive.

[Bluerthanblue]

21. he reminds me of a '70's Sears or Montgomery ward catalog model.

like a living mannequin, intended to sell something.

[jillan]

26. Definitely not my type!

[JI7]

30. the man has 0 sex appeal, i would probably do Newt and SAntorum before i did him

of course i would have to kill myself afterwards.

[Jamaal510]

20. He probably knows,

but he thinks he can skate by simply because he's not Obama, and because the not-really-liberal media gives him passes sometimes.

[TheCowsCameHome]

5. Romney can't open hs mouth without sticking his foot in it.

I hope the Dems land on him like a ton of bricks.

These gaffes (lies) are worth their weight in political gold.

[get the red out]

6. Romney's starting to embarrass me

And I can't stand the turd.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

7. More good.....er.....bad news for Romney

heckuva job, Mitt, shoring up those international relations!!!!

[goclark]

8. RMoney needs to high tail it back here

He has set the USA/World Relationshps back to the stone age.

[DefenseLawyer]

11. He's just not that into you.

Ouch.

[thelordofhell]

12. Rmoney Lying??

[Cleita]

13. They are both cut from the same cloth, so

they could be friends. Incidentally, Netanyahu is a buddy of Rush Limbaugh.

[Scootaloo]

14. "We share common experiences and have a perspective and underpinning which is similar."

"What I'm saying is, we're both complete assholes."

[Motown_Johnny]

18. Typical egomaniac

not surprised in the least

[uponit7771]

19. wooooow, if that's not the "that guy is goofy" treatment then I don't know what is

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

22. Romney to go on national television and say "everything I say is a lie"

and then he will say "guess what, I'm lying."

[surrealAmerican]

23. Sorry, Mitt ....

... bullies don't have friends.


This probably goes for both of them.

[doohnibor]

24. When Mitt the Twit is (s)elected....

I'm going to enjoy Jon Lovitz as White House Press Secretary

[Quantess]

27. pppffffft!

What a poser.

[jillan]

28. Netanyahu is probably scared to death that he will land on Mitt's list of people to convert

posthumously.

[Aerows]

29. I was there, start to finish

To those who disparage us, we will do the same thing for you.Standing UP!

I have the most sincere of intentions when I say that, because we went through hell, came through it, and remained neighbors.

[Aerows]

36. WTF?

This was about a Katrina post. How the hell did it end up under Netanyahu and Romney?

[spanone]

31. on the news tonight they mentioned he would be meeting his 'good friend' netanyahu

the media just parrots what the rnc feeds them

[hatrack]

32. God, this just keeps getting better and better!

I wish Rmoney would continue his world tour - three or four more weeks, minimum!

Seriously, he could go to Antarctica and he'd somehow manage to piss off the penguins.

[HooptieWagon]

33. Im sure Rmoney will smooth things over with a joke

about ovens or poison gas or something...

[Poll_Blind]

34. Good lord. Just as an aside, did anyone see Romney's full quote from...

...that article?

"I'd get on the phone to my friend Bibi Netanyahu and say, 'Would it help if I said this? What would you like me to do?'"

What the puppet-of-Israel fuck? Are we that far gone that a presidentail candidate can openly say something like that?

Is that a real quote? Is that taken out of context?

If that's true, if that quote is accurate, I seriously don't know if I've ever seen a presidential candidate so openly grovel to an Israeli government. Can you imagine if a presidential candidate openly said that he would call another country's government and ask what they'd like him to do, like a store clerk calling up the boss to see if he has permission to break a hundred dollar bill for a customer?

35. Can't wait to see the headlines of the Jerusalem Post and Haaretz!
