Why should Romney be president?

[ghettopalmetto]

Of note to the Catholic community, Polish-Americans, and supporters of freedom everywhere, Lech Walesa endorsed Mitt Romney.

Well, Pan Walesa is entitled to his opinions. But I still respect him for taking on the Soviet-controlled government, and fighting to establish Solidarnosc and rights for workers. My personal opinion is that Walesa has a case of the Cold War nostalgia, and dislikes Obama primarily for withdrawing support of a Poland-based missile-defense shield. But then again, Walesa has experienced Russian oppression firsthand. Mitt wouldn't know the first thing about oppression now, would he?

So Mitt lauded Solidarnosc--When do you think Mitt is going to stand up for trade unions and support workers--the workers who made him so wealthy--in his own country?

Oh, he was just grandstanding, you say? Why, I never!

Solidarnosc, however, came out AGAINST Romney. http://thinkprogress.org/security/20...and-distances/

And it would be incredibly stupid for people to think a has-been polish leader, who felt snubbed by Obama, whose political actions have essentially been the opposite of Romney's, is giving his endorsement out of anything other than pettiness and sour grapes
