I have to work today and tomorrow so I can't man any of Newt's phone banks, but if anybody can use this letter to forward in e-mails to your lists before tomorrow's primaries, please do so:
Mitt Romney supports government-coerced abortion. He personally has made the decision to force people to provide abortions even though they believe it to be murder.
Yes, he vetoed Romneycare because it mandated abortion insurance coverage, but in Dec 2005 after his veto was overridden and the Boston Globe printed an article noting that Catholic hospitals would be exempt from providing abortions to rape victims, Romney ordered the Dept of Public Health to force Catholic hospitals to provide abortions. He said his legal counsel had given him a sounder view of what Romneycare meant that this law alone, of all the abortion laws passed in the 30 years since the 1975 conscience law had exempted religious institutions from having to perform abortions against their religious beliefs, nullified the conscience law even though a nullification clause had specifically been rejected by the MA legislature. Romney went further and said he personally believed it was the right thing for Catholic hospitals to commit what they believe to be murder.
Since that time, the regulations now say that the abortifacient morning-after pill must be offered by Catholic hospitals regardless of whether rape is even claimed. In other words, any woman can go to the emergency room of any Catholic hospital in MA and force the staff there to give her an abortion pill, no questions allowed to be asked.
This isnt about rape and it isnt about abortion. There are plenty of secular hospitals that will provide the morning-after pill. This is about forcing every Catholic in this country who puts a dollar bill in the collection plate to commune at the altar of government-established religion that includes abortion. Religious liberty exists no more.
Welcome to China right here in America.
Romney defends Romneycares coerced abortions by pointing out that states are not bound by the US Constitution. First Amendment guarantees of religious liberty dont apply to states. States are free to establish religion and violate religious liberty, as Romney has done in MA.
The chief way that Islamists plan to establish sharia in free countries is by establishing precedents at the more local levels and then using that precedent to force the whole country into sharia Islam forced onto everyone. Romneys claims would allow states to establish sharia.
Vote for Newt Gingrich in the Republican Presidential primary.
The Lord bless you and give you success. Thank you for doing what you can. With our loaves and fishes, the Lord can do great things.
Proudly voting tomorrow in CT. Two votes for Newt!
I’m praying!
“But didnt Newt say he was going to support Romney?”
ONLY if it comes down to a final choice between Romney and BHO. He, like many of us, will work hard to see that BHO doesn’t get a second term to finish destroying us and our country. Newt’s made it clear that he’s the best choice for nominee (which he is, imo) and that Mittens is nowhere near conservative enough (which he isn’t). But BHO spells certain death for our republic - it’s his mission and he will be audacious and unrestrained in accomplishing it.
It appears to me that Mitt looks upon the election and the presidency as the takeover of another corporation, which he will then make bigger and stronger.

Romney, despite the fact that most conservatives do not support him is already the presumptive GOP nominee. I have already posted a vanity that said that Romney was the RNC’s choice from the outset and they have exposed their agenda with the following quote: “Whoever the nominee is, Republicans will come together to support him so we can defeat Obama.”
The RNC planned to cram a moderate down our throats and force us to support him as a means of defeating Obama. This is not only cynicism on the part of the RNC, it takes us all for granted. We are now being treated the same way that the Dems treat minorities.
If Romney actually ends up as the nominee, I will not vote for him. I may write in Newt’s name or I may just pass it by and cast my vote for conservatives in the Congress. Romney is exposing himself more and more as Obama-lite and there just isn’t that much different between the two. As much as I detest Obama, I’d rather go with the devil we know than the one we don’t. If we can take back the Senate, we have decent odds of being able to impeach Obama and terminate his second term early. That would leave us with Biden and Biden, IMO, is too stupid to do much but mind the store for the remainder of the term. We’ll have to see.
For me, however, Romney is and always has been a non-starter.
Yep, probably right... not sure that this will help, but will also vote by staying home... Actually, I’m beginning to think that voting is a lost art. Voting for the lesser of two evils is getting cumbersome...
Please don't stay home. I'm certainly not advocating for that. You can still vote for conservative candidates in Congress. If we can gain control of both houses of Congress, we can control whomever is in the WH.
zero doesn't respect the Congress and has been bypassing them. Romney may - he's too fluid to know for sure what he will do. Either way, if we control the Congress, we can control the occupant of the Oval Orifice.
If zero gets a second term and we gain control of the Congress, we can move to impeach. He's committed so many violations of the Constitution that impeachment with a conservative (or - ugh - GOP majority) Congress should be a slam dunk. Without that, America will cease to exist.
