You wouldn’t know it from the Lame Stream Legacy Media but Mitt Romney was a HUGE hit in Israel this week. His speeches were to rousing standing ovations, massive crowds and an incredible amount of support and appreciation. Israelis are optimistic and hopeful the cloud of President Obama’s pro-Israel deceptions are soon to be removed.
So right on cue the Democrat leadership spearheaded by Nancy Pelosi, and the water-carrying media -using soon to be defunct Newsweek- join with Robert Gibbs and David Alexrod to begin an all out assault on Mitt Romney. The alinsky tactics are entirely too predictable anymore.
ISRAEL – Mitt Romney on Sunday declared Jerusalem to be the capital of Israel and said he would seek to move the U.S. embassy there from Tel Aviv as president if the Israeli government ascents.
“A nation has the capacity to choose its own capital city, and Jerusalem is Israel’s capital,” the presumptive Republican presidential nominee said in an interview on CNN, conducted in Jerusalem. “I think it’s long been the policy to ultimately have our embassy in the nation’s capital of Jerusalem.”
Romney gave several televised interviews and delivered a speech in Jerusalem during a trip to Israel aimed at emphasizing his ties to the close U.S. ally and boosting his support among Jewish Americans and supporters of Israel.
“I would follow the same policy we have had in the past, our embassy would be in the capital, and the timing of that is something I would want to work out with the government,” Romney said.
During a separate speech, Romney made a point of referring to Jerusalem as the capital of the Jewish state.
Its status is a critical point of contention in the long-running dispute between Israel and the Palestinians. As a result, recent U.S. presidential administrations have avoided the question and maintained the U.S. embassy presence in Tel Aviv, despite a 1995 law that declares Jerusalem to be the capital.

MARGINALIZE – David Axelrod fills the air space:…
This morning on “This Week,” Obama campaign senior adviser Robert Gibbs said that presumptive Republican nominee for president Mitt Romney “embarrassed” himself in London when he questioned the readiness of the city to host the Olympics.
“Mitt Romney wondered aloud whether London was ready for the Olympics, and I think it’s clear that voters in this country wonder aloud whether Mitt Romney is ready for the world, and I think the world is not yet ready for Mitt Romney,” Gibbs said. “Literally to go overseas, stand in the country of our strongest ally, and on Olympics that they’ve been preparing for years for, and question whether or not they’re ready does make you wonder whether or not he’s ready to be commander-in-chief…I’m happy David Cameron had the last word, because I thought it was embarrassing for our country.”
