Tweet:
Romney on 10/22: "the key that we're going to have to pursue is a pathway to get the Muslim world to be able to reject extremism on its own"

A classic Romneyism, this gaffe from the last debate in Boca Raton shows the inverted logic of condescendingly instructing others what to do for their own good while describing it as if they came to the conclusion on their own.


Yes, Romney said this in front of 60 million viewers and no, he didn't explain how he was going to get Muslims to reject extremism, just that he would.
