From Politico.com:
Mitt Romney has remained mum on the alleged killing of 11 Iraqis by a company where one of his top advisers serves as vice chairman, even as the case has led to an uproar in Baghdad and Washington.
Now that's leadership.
A Romney press release touts the Blackwater addition to his team back on September 13, 2007:
Today, Governor Mitt Romney announced the Romney for President Counter-Terrorism and Intelligence Policy Advisory Groups. These groups are tasked with advising Governor Romney on issues vital to protecting the United States.
The Counter-Terrorism Policy Advisory Group will be chaired by Cofer Black, a former top Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and State Department counterterrorism official and now a Senior Adviser on counterterrorism and national security issues to Governor Romney.
...
Cofer Black (Chair): Black is Chairman of Total Intelligence Solutions. Beginning in February 2005, he became Vice Chairman of Blackwater USA and CEO of The Black Group.
First Senator Craig, now Cofer Black. Can you imagine the people who will occupy cabinet posts if Romney is elected president?
