Oh, I remember that one: from Gore v. Bush!
We cant survive another Obama term, yet we have a parade of Freepers who still feel Romney is the greater threat.
I actually do think Romney is the greater threat; Obama has the advantage of being particularly polarizing, Romney on the other hand will lull people into thinking that just because they changed the little letter next to the name of the President that they have "done something."
We cannot allow such a feeling as "done something" at all, much less promote someone who is for all intents and purposes Obama (they are both socialists, and will both implement more socialism). In order to "win" we need to work for something: we need to work for a more just form of government. (socialism is inherently unjust, as one's work and one's pay are utterly discrete thereby destroying reward. Further, such as we have in government, the politically-correct "disadvantaged groups" are an active promotion of injustice.)
Government has two legitimate functions:
#1 -- To protect its citizens from external threats (this could include famine, as Joseph's story in Egypt shows [famine is generally not caused by mankind, and is therefore external to the country]).
#2 -- To promote justice within its borders.
Electing Romney will not, in itself, further either of those functions. Therefore, I posit that voting for Romney is not in the best interest of the nation.
Like I said, this is the crisis on Free Republic.
People like me are certain we can’t survive another Obama term. Our nation will be irreparably harmed. Going forward our nation will be forever changed for the worse and will not be the Republic we have known and loved.
People like you believe we can survive another Obama term.
I guess we’ll see.
