"Don't look at me, I'm just here to lower my taxes"

In his latest thumb-less effort at slight-of-hand, Mitt Romney explains to you that President's do not do much other than cut rich people's taxes, screw the poor, and bomb Iran:

"Recognize this [abortion rights] is the decision that will be made by the Supreme Court," he said. "The Democrats try and make this a political issue every four years, but this is a matter in the courts. It's been settled for some time in the courts."

I mean, just because at present there are four justices determined to eliminate Roe v. Wade and the next justice will tip the balance doesn't mean who's President has anything to do with it, it's not like the President appoints 'em, right Mitt?
