A top adviser to President Barack Obama says Mitt Romney should hold his criticism until he knows what he’s talking about.

In a pre-taped interview for Sunday’s :“State of the Union” program on CNN, Obama senior advisor David Axelrod fired back at criticism by Romney that the president was taking too long to decide on whether to send more troops to Afghanistan.

“I know that Gov. Romney has never had responsibility for any decision akin to this, so he just may not be familiar with all that it entails,” Axelrod said of the former Massachusetts governor.

He also criticized Romney for unfairly characterizing Obama’s actions.

“Gov. Romney has to choose one argument or another,” Axelrod said. “Either he has to say he (Obama) is not paying attention or he has to say he is taking too long because he has been involved in a rigorous review.”

1. Romney may as well shut up and go home. He is not insane enough to get the Republican Nom

in 2012. (That is not to say he is not insane -- but he is no Palin or Huckabee).

So he can stop wasting his time coming up with "criticisms" of Obama. His party doesn't care.

GOOD FOR AXELROD>

3. But Romney does possess the necessary intellectual dishonesty required of today's Republican party.

Next he will be saying he's a 'common sense' conservative, following in the footsteps of Pawlenty and Palin. George W. Bush's 'compassionate' conservative is so 2000!

5. I look forward to pieces about failed health care outcomes in all of the medical facilities he

conglomerated and "optimized".

This Royal family and its 5 Royal sons who never joined the military should also be mentioned as often as possible. HOW can such a person have one honest thought about Afghanistan?

6. Good point. Me too.

You should send your excellent tips to David Plouffe c/o Obama For America. We, the grassroots, need to also say it often and loudly.

the worst of the worst.

8. Axelrod should apologize to Mitt Romney

If it wasn't for Romneycare, how else would Obama have come up with Obamacare?
