"Mitt Romney is edging ever closer to the recent controversial comments made by campaign surrogate John Sununu, who ultimately apologized for saying President Obama needs to “learn to be an American.”

At a campaign stop near Boston Thursday, Romney doubled down on his latest attack based on an out-of-context Obama quote Romney and the GOP has pounced on all week.

Romney said the “you didn’t build that” line he has seized on in speeches and ads wasn’t a “gaffe” but is “instead [Obama’s] ideology.”

Romney explained that Obama doesn’t really understand how the country works."

Let's come up with a list of things that Obama and all of us know makes America unique.....like the act of placing an idiot like Bush into the white house for 8 years to screw up everything he touched. That's pretty unique.

1. All this Obama un-American is an evolution from the birther crowd.

They couldn't get that to stick so now they will try this.

2. You mean the epitome of the american dream doesn't get it?

3. they are on FULL ATTACk mode now... gotta deflect from the tax returns.

And the media appears to be complicit or stupid, because they've let the tax returns slide out of the news cycle.
