Shake Shake Shake! Shake Your Romney!

Shake Shake Shake! Shake Your Romney! Shake Your Romney!

Thank you Mr. Fehrnstrom for saying out loud and confirming exactly what many conservative new long ago; Mitt Romney is promising to conservatives whatever it is that he thinks they want to hear without any intention of keeping it. The only thing shocking about this revelation is that Eric Fehrnstromn said it out loud, not in a conversation he believed was off the record or private, cut being broadcast by CNN live.

In case you haven’t heard what the kerfuffle is all about , here’s the interview of Mr. Fehrnstrom on CNN and the quote Team Romney is trying to spin away:

JOHN FUGELSANG (CNN): “Is there a concern that [Rick] Santorum and [Newt] Gingrich might force the governor to tack so far to the right it would hurt him with moderate voters in the general election?”

FEHRNSTROM: “Well, I think you hit a reset button for the fall campaign. Everything changes. It’s almost like an Etch-A-Sketch. You can kind of shake it up and restart all of over again. But I will say, if you look at the exit polling data in Illinois, you’ll see that Mitt Romney is broadly acceptable to most of the factions in the party. You have to do that in order to become the nominee…”

Immediately Team Romney went into damage control and assuming everyone else is either an idiot or will not see the full comment in context has Mitt Romney himself respond with:
“I can tell you this, when the campaign moves to becoming a general election campaign, the nature of the campaign itself in terms of staff, funding, the states we’d go to will be different than today, obviously, It’s a much larger campaign fundraising numbers are very different, we now work with the Republican National Committee instead of apart from any committee of that nature. So organizationally a general election campaign takes on a different profile.”
Anyone who has achieved a reading comprehension level of grade four or higher can clearly see what Fehrnstrom said and what Romney tells you he said are completely different and not only from a different point of view, but a completely different reality constructed for the lone purpose of Romney to hid away in.

Many will say that this is standard operating procedure for candidates in the primary. To that I say that those of us looking for actual change in Washington; yeah we know. And that’s the point. What promise is Romney making to conservatives now that he has no intention of keeping?

The cancer of Obama”care” now extends to choosing a “Public health expert for the World Bank Presidency.”
_______

The major problem with THE NINE SUPREMES is that they are chosen for political reasons by the POTUS, and then they vote as an un-accountable democracy, for a Nation that is NOT a Democracy, but a REPUBLIC.

As a result, THE NINE SUPREMES commonly vote 5 to 4 on most issues. Constitutionality is seldom a consideration, and their up-coming ruling on Obama”care” will prove my point.

Now is the time to stand and deliver to address our grievances to the dictates of the Left.

Oppose the dictates of Dictator Baby-Doc Barack!

Our ONLY chance to ABOLISH Obama”care” rests with THE NINE SUPREMES, because Romney will be defeated by Obama.

IMHO, if Romney is anointed as the RNC Nominee, THE main issue in the National Election, Obama”care,” will be taken off the campaign table. Hence, Romney will not only lose, but suffer another crushing, and sadly typical, RINO defeat.

To those who want poster ideas, here are a few ideas for demonstration posters:

Obama”care” was robo-signed by Congress, and is therefore illegal.

Obama”care” was 2700 pages long, and is still being written, but not by Congress: witness the forced contraception coverage recently added by HHS Regulators.

Obama”care” has caused “The Catholic Spring.”

Obama”care” reduces competition, and therefore is illegal by the 1890 Sherman Anti-Trust Law.

Obama”care” is designed to be a US Federal Government monopoly, with no competition.

Obama”care” also is illegal according to the US Constitution, because it violates our freedom of choice.

Will THE NINE SUPREMES notice any of these three violations? I seriously doubt it.

Impeached Bill Clinton proved that the US President is above US Federal Law, so anything that the President wants he gets, regardless of the Federal Laws that he has violated.

I expect Romney would hire Winston Smith as his press secretary if he wins.

It’s great that one of Romney’s own people gave us this image. If anyone outside Romney’s camp had tried to say this, it wouldn’t have been such a big story.

And it’s true. It’s a precise description of Romney’s “conservatism”.

If you are over 60, you are allowed 3 or 4 shakes :-)

It’s illegal to shake your Romney in public....

At least that’s what my restraining order states....

...”I expect Romney would hire Winston Smith as his press secretary if he wins.”

No..Sorry.DB.. That distinction will be going to Milwaukee talk show host Charley Sykes who helped get rid of Cain by beatinup up on him for weeks until he quit and will push Romney in the key Wisconsin April 3rd primary by having Romney rendering reports on daily...

Never heard of Charley Sykes so I googled him. Watchdog Milwaukee sure don't care for him. Seems he's got a record with wives much like Newt. If he's for Romney that's not a plus for Romney on my decision tree.

Sykes is a very powerfull Republican* personality in Wisconsin and through his broadcasts over WTMJ a 50,000 watt powerhouse reaches way beyond just Milwaukee. He replaced Rush in the 90s and is a part of the Republican establishment. To find out more about him go to WTMJ am 620.

*Note I didn’t say conservative although on the fiscal side does let loose.. Your revalation from a group I’m not aware of may explain he’s death on social issues and frequently bashed the women cadidates in the 10 Senate chase from Nevada and Deleware.
