Mitt Romney, speaking to the editorial board of the Washington Examiner:
I am very concerned that this president is putting America on a path toward appeasement internationally and entitlement domestically. That we go from being a merit-opportunity society to an entitlement society. And it's going to require a dramatic change in Washington by someone who knows how to lead. [Emphasis mine]
President Obama, speaking to reporters following a Republican filibuster of his nominee for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Richard Cordray:
Ask Osama bin Laden and the 22-out-of–30 top al Qaeda leaders who've been taken off the field whether I engage in appeasement. Or whoever is left out there, ask them about that. [Emphasis mine]
Something tells me that Romney's "appeaser" attack won't work well in a general election.
