I’m sure Romney holds some sway with the checked pants Republicans, but in flyover country we wish he would just shut up and go away.

We have come to appreciate Romney and grant him this moral authority because of how we have come to know him. As we see him, it would not occur to him or his wife and family to advance with treachery, duplicity or deception. Because they are inherently honest. Because they are inscrutably moral and have a distinct, historical, American work ethic.

I see them on the couch, in their sweaters, looking all cozy like, as Ann Romney assures the interviewer that they are pro-abortion, Ann was the first one of the two to be elected to political office.

“We have come to appreciate Romney and grant him this moral authority because of how we have come to know him.”

I would appreciate it if Romney and his ilk- northeastern gungrabbing liberals who support same-sex marriage- would disappear from the planet altogether.

Leftist writers on drugs.

This reminds me when National Review said that terrorist Mandela had more moral authority than anyone else on Earth.

My prediction is that the pre-convention process will not resolve a nominee, and that Romney will be nominated on the third ballot.

I don’t know if anyone remembers the Princess and the Pea, but here is Ann Romney telling of the hard scrabble college days of her and Mitt.

“They were not easy years. You have to understand, I was raised in a lovely neighborhood, as was Mitt, and at BYU, we moved into a $62-a-month basement apartment with a cement floor and lived there two years as students with no income. It was tiny. And I didn’t have money to carpet the floor. But you can get remnants, samples, so I glued them together, all different colors. It looked awful, but it was carpeting.
We were happy, studying hard. Neither one of us had a job, because Mitt had enough of an investment from stock that we could sell off a little at a time. The stock came from Mitt’s father. When he took over American Motors, the stock was worth nothing. But he invested Mitt’s birthday money year to year—it wasn’t much, a few thousand, but he put it into American Motors because he believed in himself. Five years later, stock that had been $6 a share was $96 and Mitt cashed it so we could live and pay for education.
Mitt and I walked to class together, shared housekeeping, had a lot of pasta and tuna fish and learned hard lessons.”

The self-described “severe conservative” thinks Trump made a “severe mistake”. I think Romney is overusing, if not misusing the world “severe”.

It’s a “Romney half-century” only in this silly writer’s imagination.

Quigley picked the wrong day to stop huffing Tunis sheep dung.

I do believe that Mr. B. Quigley is serious, unfortunately for him. This article is a laugh riot.

Starting with the first two lines. Pansy Grahamnesty’s statement:

“He’s running to be president of all of us.”

...all of us. All of the US. Trump was not talking about US, American citizens. He was talking about them. The scofflaw, disease ridden, non driving, murderous, raping, thieving, criminal illegals that Mehico and other nations have illegally sent to flood across our border. None of them should ever be considered one of US. They are theirs and should be returned immediately.

The article proceeded to deteriorate into a laugh riot with this statement:

“But this episode might be seen in hindsight as a definitive and serendipitous moment in the American chronicles. Because Donald Trump angered former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney. And Romney, the 2012 Republican nominee, has become a commanding voice of moral leadership in the Republican Party.”

So this clown imagines that the father of gay marriage and Obamacare, lover of baby murder and mandates is a commanding voice of “moral” leadership in the republican party? Have they started booing God in the republican party now too? Or have they just been sitting in and taking notes in Jimmy Carter’s Sunday school classes?

Finally, right before I started laughing so hard I couldn’t read any more, Quigley wrote this:

‘”I think he made a severe error in saying what he did about Mexican-Americans,” said Romney. “And it’s unfortunate.”

The language — “severe error” — resonated with nuance.’

Severe error? That language is nuanced? We’ve been exposed to it from Romney before. I’ve already learned from Romney’s “severe conservative” remark that severe before a word means the opposite of whatever he says. So in Romney speak, severe error means Trump is absolutely correct. So nuanced it means exactly the opposite and brings us right back to remembering what a liar Romney is.

Finally Mr. Commanding Voice of Moral Leadership flat out lied about who Trump was speaking about. Trump didn’t say a word about Mexican-”Americans,” he was talking about illegal aliens, criminals, scofflaws, who prey on Americans of Mexican or any other origin.

This entire article looks like it was bought and paid for, commissioned by Mitt, just like we used to see when he was running for president. A lie here and a lie there. Maybe Mitt can say he got Martin Luther King, Gandhi and Mother Theresa to rise from the grave and march with him to prove his moral authority. Yeah, that’s the ticket!

Romney had his shot and he blinked. His opinion, as he cozies up with Bush and Rubio, means less by the second.

Did the Bishop Romney apologize to the Palin family
for attacking her and her children on the eve of
the 2008 Election?
No. Because THAT would have been moral.
