I know about George Soros. But on the issue of the differences between Romney and Obama being nil, he is correct.

George Romney, Mitt’s dad, was a great admirer of Saul Alinsky. George Romney was known as an extremely liberal Republican, a friend of Nelson Rockefeller (they had both been governors) and much further to the left than Nelson.

Though Mitt Romney ran as a Republican he is actually a national socialist. In Germany they were called Nazis and though most people are horrified by the name, Romney is indeed a fascist.

Mitt Romney has paid out millions of dollars to drive down Newt Gingrich’s reputation during this election, the same thing he has done to Sarah Palin and her family the past three years.

I do not consider Romney’s nomination inevitable, period. Voter turnout has been severly depressed across the nation, except in South Carolina and Georgia, where conservatives turned out in droves to vote for Gingrich.

What needs to happen is for truthful ads about Romney to run nationally and in specific states where future primaries will be held. The problem is money combined with Speaker Gingrich’s preference to keep a positive message in the style of Ronald Reagan.

Well, we may disagree but at least it’s civil. Hopefully in the end we can rid ourselves of Obama. I was three when Nelson Rockefeller resigned as my Governor to be Ford’s VP. But Rockefeller’s predecessor had raised taxes in NY by about 15% in one term and really sucked so what choice did NYer’s have? Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?

1961- Present: Obama: abortion on demand! Partial Birth Abortion! Let those that survive abortion die! Federal and church cash to pay for abortions! Create embryos to experiment on!

Republicans would not allow Romney to do these things that are going on right now, and I don't think he would consider doing them.

What part of "But if you wish to campaign for him, please do it somewhere else. It’s not welcome here." did you not understand?

Turn me in again, Gestapo deer.

My point was, since YOU brought up your full color graphics to dis a Republican, why not show Obama’s record on abortion. It's much worse and he never denied he's for it all. Partial birth— on demand— let baby's die that survive an abortion— make taxpayers and churches pay for abortions against their conscience.

IF Romney is the nominee, which I think he will be, people have to make their choice based on facts, not just your Pro Obama rants. If I get banned for campaigning for Romney, which I am not, you should get banned for pimping for Obama. Because that's what your doing. And on a conservative message board, rightly so, people will be turned off by Romney's flip flopping on abortion, as they should be. So you made that point. But they should also know Obama’s horrendous baby killing record.

As the neighbor of a person that lived through Fascism, I respectfully disagree. This neighbor is petrified of Obama, and in her German accented voice, she practically trembles when she thinks of four more years of him. In her German community group, there is a man that tapes Obama’s speeches he translates into German. It sounds all to familiar to these 80 plus year olds. They think Obama adds Marxist ideas into his fascist ideas which is even worse. They are not all Jewish but are afraid of O’s contempt toward Israel. The woman I speak of met and married an American soldier after the war. “I thought all of this was behind me” she says. They meet everyday down at the German-American club and as soon as there is a nominee are plastering their building with the nominees signs. My daughter asked if one particular gentleman could speak at her school. They were studying WW II and the years before. He was invited with open arms until it got around out small town that he was “to political”, and so he was canceled. His words: “And so it begins...” so if I come across on here pretty strong about supporting the GOP nominee, this is but one reason why.

Romney is a fascist, and a self-avowed one. How many people recognized Hitler as evil before 1935?

This is like Obama in 2008 all over again. I find myself warning people that Mitt Romeny isn’t who you think he is, just like I did with Obama.

From Politijim:

Earlier this year, the Boston Globe obtained a copy of an internal campaign PowerPoint presentation that outlined Romney’s strengths and weaknesses as he embarked on his presidential bid. One page—entitled “Primal Code for Brand Romney”—explained that Romney should market himself as a foil to such Massachusetts liberals as Senators Edward Kennedy and John Kerry, and also run against such “enemies” as Hollywood, France, and “moral relativism.”

As bad as Santorum’s wool was pulled over the eyes of social conservatives and Tea Party types, Romney’s campaign has been weaving a knit cap without eyeholes since he took office as Massachusetts Governor. Get this: WHILE HE WAS STILL PROCLAIMING HIMSELF AS LIBERAL and IMPLEMENTING TAX PAYER ABORTION IN ROMNEYCARE, he was donating to Pro-Life and conservative groups setting up a “conservative” presidential campaign.

In seeking to woo conservatives, Romney has also used his personal PAC—the Commonwealth Political Action Committee—to contribute lavishly to several national pro-life groups, the Federalist Society, the National Review, and the Heritage Foundation, among others. In South Carolina, Romney set up a branch of the PAC all the way back in 2004. (He started branches in Iowa, New Hampshire, Michigan, and Arizona at the same time.) Since then, the state branch—with guidance from a number of consulting firms, including DC Navigators, a top Washington-based group—has run up expenditures of roughly $518,000.

No matter. The primary is over right? Who cares about massive Mitt voter manipulation or lies on behalf of Romney by the GOP? That’s just politics right? If it was good enough for Obama, it’s good enough for us?

No. It’s called corruption.

When I was a child we had neighbors who were really nice people. The husband was a Hostess (pastries) delivery truck driver, and his wife was from Belgium. What a lovely couple!

She had a tattoo on one forearm, and I, age 7 was fascinated. My mother explained about the tattoo, and what it meant. The husband, too, had experienced the evil of WWII, having been captured by the Japanese and imprisoned in a POW camp.

“And so it begins...” we shouldn’t go from one evil to another. There is a better way, and it isn’t either Romney or Obama.

No, that was NOT your point. You actually denied that Romney was for abortion and stated that GOP would not allow it!

people have to make their choice based on facts, not just your Pro Obama rants.

I HAVE NEVER MADE ANY PRO 0BAMA RANTS! So shut the FLUKE up!

But they should also know Obama’s horrendous baby killing record.

Here you go MORON! Pay attention because I've posted it many times. Your hero Mittens and 0bama are both baby killers!

You are wasting your time trying to explain this to mac and billva, they serve as the useful idiots for the evil that is rising in America. Their protestations are over the degree of rise, revealing they will tolerate the rising evil so long as it rises more slowly under one bastard than the other bastard.

The repsonsibility to restrain and perhaps remove an enemy of We The People from the White House stands with CONGRESS, and that is where my efforts will be spent if the GOPe try to shove Rominy down our conservative throats. Voting against one demonspawn by voting for a lesser demonspawn is still voting for demospawn, but you cannot get that through the minds of ones like Mac and billva, they are content to slide downward so long as the slide is not too fast for their equilibrium ... keep their bread and circuses coming to them and they will boil away in the pot.

Obama will win another term because of people like you and ruin this country. We will never live to see another day where America is the shining city on the hill. Obama has taken care of that and will even inflict more destruction on us all. You’ll have a lot more pictures for your slide show on abortion, because ALL impediments and state laws, ultrasound laws, etc will be wiped clean. He’ll actually go around supporting this with Democratic Senators and House members at his side. I never said Romney was never pro-choice in his life, I said he would never be let to run a free for all abortion plan by the conservatives in congress the likes Obama will implement. So your ok with electing Obama to another term understanding that. You keep saying Newt, but you have no understanding that he cant win. I’ll put my money where my mouth is, a $1,000 campaign donation to Newts campaign if he wins the nomination. It’s never going to happen and I don’t understand why you think Obama is better. There is no one else accept he who must not be named by you.

And giving Obama another term is restraining the government how? And if he picks up the House and holds the Senate? He's already spent more then every President before him combined, implemented regulations we don't even know about, implemented bills he hasn't read and is allowing dictatorial bureaucrats to right the rules on them

Please explain how by not voting we restrain an Obama government.

“This is Obama all over again...”

So your answer is to reelect him where he has 8 years to consolidate power?

From the Boston Globe. ‘Nuff said.

You should see some of the internal memos campaigns put out discussing things amongst themselves. There would be no one to pass the conservative test. I’ve seen a lot of them.
