Romney Flexes Muscles on Iran
Surging GOP Presidential contender Mitt Romney talked tough to ABC News at a campaign appearance in Tulsa, Okla. yesterday over a recent report about CIA plans in Iran.
“The reporting has the potential of jeopardizing our national security,” the former Massachusetts governor said. “Stated quite plainly, it has the potential of affecting human life. We may never know.”
He said he did not support censorship, but that “the media has a responsibility to police itself.”
