Romney playing Etch-A-Sketch? No, he's got 20/20 hindsight

Are things getting really bad of Mitt Romney? If not, why is he and his campaign trying to make people forget what he said 4 years ago and lying so much? Four years ago, he wrote an op-ed piece for a paper stating that no bailout money should be given to the auto industry from the government. Now, a spokesperson for his campaign state that the government bail out of the industry was exactly what he was suggesting. Four years ago, Mitt Romney said that candidate Obama would be wrong in going into Pakistan unilaterally to kill bin-Laden when then-candidate Obama said he'd do it. Now, not only would he do it, Mitt is now saying any President would do it, neglecting the fact that George W. Bush pulled troops from the area to act and invade Iraq. And George W. stated that it wasn't all that important that bin-Laden was killed.
When Romney became that presumptive candidate for the GOP, it was thought that he would try to get people to forget things that had been said during the primaries. But this really is that at all, it's really looking back with 20/20 hindsight and changing the facts. Of course, it can also be called lying.
