If Obama's spokesperson had said this in response to reporters asking Obama questions you'd say it shows a lack of respect for the media and the decorum of the office.

Team Romney is not ready for prime time. This much is clear.

I would never make such a statement about the press. Of course few would dare ask such questions about Obama anyway

I'm not at all outraged. The guy spoke his mind, I've no problem with that, really.

But the fact is that, to the extent that the purpose of this trip was to try to portray Romney as presidential and comfortable on the international stage, it has been an abject disaster.

Yet it's uncanny how frequently you parrot her words.

When you travel in that manner you are viewed, rightly or wrongly, as a team. And its especially surprising that it would be an alleged professional in terms of dealing with the media who would lose his cool.

Fact is, Romney has taken a grand total of three questions form the trailing press corps. Its pretty obvious that he's not up to the task of thinking on his feet and not then sticking them in his mouth.
