Romney did not rule out support for a 3rd round of quantitative easing....

Ben takes no prisoners!

Oh hell no, Romney didn't want any follow-up questions. I'm sure he could tell that Swann was prepared and knew his stuff.

Wierd how the audio when Ben speaks was quite off (lots of noise) and when Romney spoke, it was crystal clear audio. They weren't using the same mics?

That was probably set up as a buffet line of reporters. Reporter A steps in, gets 5 minutes and then leaves so reporter B nac step in and get his 5 minutes. Romney would be mic'd up properly while the reporters would likely get picked up only by the boom mics or camera mics.


As for the interview itself...Romney dodged questions like Neo dodged bullets. Was there an actual answer given to any of Ben's questions?

Good on you Ben for keeping real journalism alive.

Romney is wearing a lavalier isolating mic. I'm not sure why they used a (pretty crappy sounding) shotgun mic for Swann....

Another round of "stimulus" would be forthcoming from Obamney too, no doubt. These Keynesian vampires are gonna collapse the republic and destroy us all.

Eh. As soon as Ben said 'strong Austrian principle' I knew it wouldn't be a great interview.

Good thing Ben Swann is professional. I'd love to just ask him nothing but loaded questions:

Question 1: Why do you hate freedom, prosperity and the constitution?

Question 2: Do you intentionally flip-flop, or is it just because you have no moral spine?

Question 3: Is it that you enjoy killing brown people, or do you just like the profits and control?

Question 4: You sound like a total douche when you refer to your state's plan you say you oppose at the federal level as "Romneycare". No question, just wanted to finish on that note.

Is it me or is it just weird seeing Romney in an interview? Hahaha.

 

[Paulistinian]

Ben Swann certifiable badass.

Ben inspires me to pursue one of my childhood dreams and try and become a journalist.

There is no price at which we are willing to live with a nuclear Iran.

Please speak for yourself Mittens. I wouldn't spend a penny and would be very upset if you rob me to go off murdering Iranians.

At the end, Ben confused 'deficit' with 'debt'. We have a $16 Trillion debt, not deficit.

Get it right, Ben. That was your commentary at the end and it could have been changed.
