The Obama campaign has the maturity level of a fifth-grader.
Via Yahoo! News:
President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign mocked Mitt Romney late Wednesday as being “scared” of Venezuela’s anti-American President Hugo Chavez “like he’s ten feet tall,” the latest rhetorical broadside in an escalating war of words.
“Hugo Chavez has become increasingly marginalized and his influence has waned,” Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt said in a statement. “It’s baffling that Mitt Romney is so scared of a leader like Chavez whose power is fading, while Romney continues to remain silent about how to confront al-Qaeda or how to bring our troops home from Afghanistan.”
The rhetorical rumble began late Tuesday when Obama told a Florida television interviewer that Chavez “has not had a serious national security impact on us.” Romney promptly led a chorus of angry Republican charges that Obama had failed to confront the alleged threat posed by the Venezuelan leader as part of a “pattern of weakness” in foreign policy.
