Any Republican who stakes his decision on an article by Jake Tapper is suspect in my opinion.
I do recall a whole bunch of folks bowing at the CBS alter when a CBS genius ran a hit piece on Romney and the Olympics.
Pure ethics in journalism when it is against Romney.
Now that said, this is certainly a stupid article from ABC and the party who posted it should have recognized it as that. But geez, how many posts now attacking the guy?
That’s how the Mormons treat all those wives: Wives get to heaven if their husbands remember to use their secret name. I’ve never read any other way for any woman to get into heaven and/or become a god, except by a secret name and the will of a man, rather than by the Grace of God and the self-sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ.
Hows that lds these days?
I also saw Fred’s appeal to what is generally a left-leaning or apathetic/cynical audience: the Jay Leno show folks. It is one barometer of what resonates with a segment of the public — not an exclusive measure.
His responses about Iran and nuclear war and other real issues drew applause, some of it immediate and intense when he finished his responses. This suprised me given what I know about the majority of the audience members. Yes, I know there is an applause button beneath the stage. But I also think the audience perceived that he was a serious man, has considered what we face, and is not a rash or inexperienced hand at dealing with the real issues.
I also notice the “attacks” on him are rather pusilanimous: his wife dresses inappropriately, he looks old, he was a lobbyist, etc.
This post is a good example because on the slightest analysis (actually just reading the first sentence of the linked blog) these attacks wither.
ForEternity, come back with something real that is supported by your source material. Make my reading your posts about Romney worth my time.
I DO NOT WANT TO WASTE MY TIME READING INACCURATELY CHARACTERIZED — EVEN MISSTATED POSTS AND SOURCES.
Mitt just needs to be honest, and if that honesty causes him to lose, oh well.
And that correlates to Fred, how?
All you Fred bots are attacking me but can't defend the actions of your man.
Plenty of posters on this thread have already pointed out to you that some stupid liberal activist has an axe to grind. Wake me up when the government does an investigation on its own.
I don't care who filed the complaint
I do. The Left hates Fred and conservatives, and will throw their feces at the wall to see if it sticks.
it's still going to be investigated. IT...IS...SLEAZY
Wrong. This ain't going nowhere, bub. The only thing sleazy is the blogger, you, and your flip-flopping RINO Oven Mitt Romney.
LOL. What a drama queen.
“Sleaze” is parial posting a hit piece based on bogus charges. I could say that you are a misogynist, a believer in myths that demean women and misrepresent the Creator and His new creation in Jesus Christ. J’accuse!
You are delusional. It’s just an allegation by a professed lib. You don’t think that it is going to take more that $3.4 million to get past the primary you do not have a clue. I am not a Fred bot but this is nothing more than cheap shot time for many candidates. How much does McCain have put away for the general?
When ABC talks, anybody but the most liberal leftists reach for the remote.
I quit watching them long before Peter Jennings died.
You forgot to include this part, but we all know what you are trying to do here.
It's pathetic.
Because he's doing the exact same thing.
And it's easy to see why. If he waits till after the 9/6 he won't have to disclose how much money he's taken or who'd who's given it to him.
All the other candidates ponied up and disclosed everything. It's a sleazy move by Fred so his campaign funds won't be compared with the other candidates. Thus possibly having a negative effect to his polls.
Jesus died on the cross for me. He alone is my Lord and Saviour.
The only thing sleazy is your dishonesty.
sniff...
Thompson filed his disclosure form with the IRS, he revealed that $72,000 of the $3.4 million raised is to be used for the general election. Former FEC General Counsel, Larry Noble told the Washington Post "I think it's problematic. Clearly it's a red flag.
The point is we SHOULDN'T be having this discussing. Fred shouldn't be doing this crap. Or anything like it.
All the other candidates didn't do this.
A truth, no matter who tells it, is still true.
And if he gets fined for playing on the legal line, he should be over and done with.
>>>>>I'm voting for Mitt!
The man who gave Massachusetts RomneyCare!
