Romney on Obama: ‘The citizenship test has been passed’

Politics • April 2011 • Views: 933

Mitt Romney tonight pushed back against those in his party who are questioning President Obama’s citizenship, suggesting his fellow Republicans should put their energy into more substantive issues.

“The citizenship test has been passed,” Romney said tonight on CNBC’s Kudlow Report. “I believe the president was born in the United States. There are real reasons to get this guy out of office…but his citizenship isn’t the reason why.”

Several prominent Republicans — including Donald Trump and Sarah Palin — have once again tried to stoke controversy by questioning Obama’s citizenship even though his birth in Hawaii has been confirmed by officials in the state.

Yet another reason Romney can't win the GOP nomination; he won't pander to birfers.

And thus his transitioning into RINOhood is complete.

"The citizenship test has been passed," Romney said tonight on CNBC's Kudlow Report. "I believe the president was born in the United States."

So much for Mittens becoming the nominee. RINO!

See the reader comments here:

Nearly all the comments are batshit crazy and many seem like their authors are raging against Romney so hard that they're about to have a stroke.

I am on record as saying I find Mitt to be sleazy and opportunistic but I am glad he did this. Unfortunately for him, he jsut hurt his chances. Many Republican primary voters would rather hear that Obama is a secret Kenyan Muslim who wants to destroy this country because he hates America rather than Obama is wrong and here's how.
