At a presser with the Japanese Prime Minister in Washington on Monday, President Obama was asked about Mitt Romney’s past comments indicating that he (Romney) didn’t think it was worth going after Osama bin Laden. Here’s the president’s response:

“I just recommend that everybody take a look at people’s previous statements in terms of what they thought was appropriate to go into Pakistan and take out bin Laden,” Obama said. “I assume that people meant what they said when they said it. If there are others who have said one thing and now suggest they would do something else, then I would go ahead and let them explain it.”
