Except for his unfortunate go along to get along support of TARP, bailouts, stimulus spending and the increased credit limit, etc, Ryan is a pretty good choice. Probably the best choice of the RINOS that were on Romney's short list. I support Ryan for the vice presidency. Wish he were at the top of the ticket, though.
But I still cannot and will not support the grand father of ObamaCare. Romney still loves and brags about his bastard brainchild, RomneyCare, even today when he knows what an anti-liberty socialist POS it is.
And the fact that he advocated that abortion should be safe and legal in America for over three decades of his adult lifetime and even advocated that Roe v Wade should be supported and sustained as settled law precludes any consideration whatsoever by this pro-life Christian for Myth Romney for the presidency.
And the fact that he boasted that he would be better for "gay rights" than Ted Kennedy, and proved it just increases my resistance.
That, and his penchant for gun control, his continuing support for global warming, gays in the scouts, gays in the military, and his record of appointing liberal judges makes it all but impossible for me to support him.
Lastly, we're having a bit of changeover on our moderator staff. At least two moderators resigned this afternoon after I flatly refused to rein in a so-called anti-Mormon "bigot" on FR. Well, if being in opposition to false prophets and false prophecy makes a Christian believer a bigot, then I guess I'm a bigot. I've posted before that I flat do not believe that the Book of Mormon is the true word of God. Nor do I believe that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God. The Christian bible warns us to be weary of false prophets and that I am. Romney being the presumptive Republican nominee does not change that fact.
BTTT
May God bless you my FRiend.
Tatt
I’ll add to all of the other responses in thanking you for clarity and perspective that could only come from having that account of struggle come directly from a person that suffered through it.
May it open the heads of those that still dont get that this election is not a joke.
Right on!
It would be far better for us that Obama wins. At least we know where we stand with Obama. If we can get hold of Congress (we're within striking distance) then we can stave off destruction for another four years.
If we elect Romney, his first act as President will be to throw the Tea Party under the bus. Then we'll lose everything, as a GOP Congress would have to go up against their own guy.
Sounds so much like daddy, doesn’t he?
[ROmney did try and take a stance stronger on Gay Rights than Kennedy many years ago when he tried to run against him. ]
Bullshyte.

Which face did Myth fart that out of?
Oh my.
NO, he was not, check your history ;)
Sad. :( It pains me to see what is happening, I don’t blame you.
For all practical purposes it already has reached that point. This nation has been circling the drain for a long time now. Get over it. If I recall Rome is the only nation/government that lasted longer than we have so far and look what happened to it. This nation is most assuredly on the path of Sodom and Gomorrah as it has become so wicked and it now worships at the altar of the "Golden Calf". This nation turned its back on God years ago and now God is turning His back on this nation and those who abandon Him.
These are very perilous times we are living in these days. Keep your attention on the heavens and not on man, and pray.
LOL!
How can anyone respect a religion that springs from perversion?
The founders of Mormonism were perverts, not just by our modern standards, but also by the standards of their own time and place. When all the phony, concocted, religious hocus-pocus gets stripped away, the simple truth about Joseph Smith and Bringem Young becomes clear - they were perverts who just made up a lot of baloney to justify their perversions. They liked little girls and they couldn’t control themselves sexually. In order to avoid the usual stigma associated with such behavior, they just made up a whole religion which could protect them from shame and prosecution.
How can anyone respect what these perverts have done?
What is the essential difference between Bringem Young and Warren Jeffs?
You must do what you think is best. Thanks.
I think that is the purpose of it. I think they are A-OK with 4 more years of Soetoro the Kenyan Commie.
Btw, most FR supporters on Romney don't have a SINGLE good thing to say about Romney (besides the obvious, "He's not Obama")
Doesn't that raise ANY red flag with anyone?
Many FR supporters of Romney heavily criticized him all thru 2011 into 2012...some go back to doing the same thing in 2007 into early 2008.
Isn't that an obvious second red flag?
Most pro-Romney posts around FR are simply "fear"-based...fear on steroids.
How do you like these sub-heads as applied to Romney voters on this thread just posted:
The ‘Lesser Of Two Evils’ Con-Game
I quickly noted the last two sub-heads from that article:
* "Only Cowards Compromise In The Face Of Evil"
* "The Greatest Evil Is Moral Relativism"
You fear-mongers out there...time to come clean...how many of you are just plain "cowards" in the face of Obama's evil?
And then how many of you have turned to pragmatic utilitarian political and moral relativism as some sort of "pretend" "answer" to facing the RINO evil and the Obama evil that seeks to swallow over 90% of voters...which will mean for...
(and a socialist healthcare pioneer at that!)
Have you just returned from an extended trip to Mars or something? Seriously.
Amen
The only people “planning” to stay home on election day are trolls hoping to suppress conservative turn out. Don’t be one of those guys. We conservatives will show up to do our civic duty on election day. We may opt, however, not to support the liberals on the ballot. That includes the ones with “R”s behind their names.
