Of course, even Jimmy Carter would have given that order.
— Mitt Romney, quoted by Politico, on whether he would have given the order to go after Osama bin Laden in Pakistan.

Romney Deploys the Dreaded ‘Even Jimmy Carter’ Insult
Poetic Justice
From Trump’s “stolen election” lies, we can’t get no relief,
He carps on about stolen votes, but he never names the thief.
Somebody needs to tell this guy
Americans aren’t buying his lies,
And that he’s turned us into the United States of Disbelief.
Ya know what pisses me off about that quote? Carter actually did make that call. 8 US Service Members were killed and he was eviscerated for it. And from things Romney said in 2008, we can pretty much assume he wouldn’t have made the call. And he also wouldn’t have directed the CIA to find Bin Laden either! Mendacious mf!
Mr. Romney shows the same level of class as he does intelligence. His gratuitious insult to one of the only two Presidents in my lifetime who had the courage to do what was needed without looking at political consequences reflects on him, not Jimmy Carter. He is an embarrassment to us all.
