Romney’s foreign policy expert’s chance to shine.

Here’s Romney Foreign Policy adviser Ambassador Pierre Prosper:

“The United States has become a spectator on issues of national security. We’ve also been embarrassed by North Korea where again it continues to be a conciliatory leaning forward approach and yet the North Koreans will launch a missile surprising the United States by violating their agreement.

You know Russia is another example where we give and Russia gets and we get nothing in return. The United States abandoned its missile defense sites in Poland and Czechoslovakia, yet Russia does nothing but obstruct us, or efforts in Iran and Syria.”

There hasn’t been a Czechoslovakia for nearly twenty years.

I second that facepalm, and from the Republicans Never Learn Department, here’s Gramps McInsane in 2008:

“And I regret some of the recent behavior Russia that has exhibited, and I’ll be glad to talk about that later on including reduction in oil supplies to Czechoslovakia after they agreed with us on a missile defense system, etcetera.”

- John McCain, July 2008

How embarrassing is it to be a Republican?
