JACKSONVILLE, FL -- Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney commented on the Libya attacks during a campaign stop in Jacksonville, Florida Wednesday morning. He said the attacks on American individuals and embassies is “outrageous and disgusting.”

Governor Romney also criticized the Obama administration's handling of affairs in Egypt and Libya.

"A terrible course for America to stand in apology for our values. That instead when our grounds are attacked and being breached, that the first response of the United States must be outrage at the breach of the sovereignty of our nation. And apology for America’s values is never the right course," said Romney.

Meantime, the Obama campaign fired back with this statement:

"We are shocked that, at a time when the United States of America is confronting the tragic death of one of our diplomatic officers in Libya, Governor Romney would choose to launch a political attack."
