5:22Now Playing"Mitt Romney tried to appear last night as if he and President Obama were not much different on foreign policy matters.
As with almost anything about Mitt Romney, nothing could be further from the truth.
Even more than the economy, war and peace is the most critical issue any country faces.
Mitt Romney and President Obama have widely divergent views on war and peace. Obama's is thoughtful, nuanced and sees war as a last resort, and only then in concert with key allies unless the U.S. or a very close ally is directly attacked or is faced with a very high likelihood of being attacked. Witness, for example, how the president skillfully managed to protect Libyan civilians from a bloodbath, employing the tools of supportive military power, engaging the Arab league and our allies, and not costing the life of a single American to oust Gaddafi.
Romney really does not have any views of his own. He has absolutely zero experience, and, it appears, zero knowledge of the world. Thus far, his only foreign policy achievement has been to unite all of Britain's political parties, including the Conservatives, around one belief -- for President Obama's re-election."* Cenk Uygur breaks down what conservative pundits said about Romney's "kidgloves" and whether or not anyone could admit that Obama had won (hint: no).
