G.O.P. Candidate (again) for President of the United States, Willard (Mitt) Romney claims credit for success of the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City. In fact, it appears its one of the pillars of his "qualifications" to be Commander-In-Chief.
But is this claim just more GOPocrisy? More Mitt Romney flip-floppery?
It certainly is a topic of discussion that has taken hold recently. And with Mitt Romney losing ground to Rick Santorum, its a topic that can't help his efforts.
I found this article in the Boston Herald. Their headline reads, "Mitt Romney says he turned around Olympics. Did he?" Well before we dive right into the whole messy deal, I would like to offer my answer: "Yes, I think he did." BUT - that is not why I am posting about this. Rather, I would like to focus on Mitt Romney's hypocritical position on Federal hand-outs (my term, not his).
