Funny how that works both ways huh finny .

Saying that a vote for Romney is a vote for government tyranny is a statement of fact based on Romney's record, though voting for tyranny understandably won't be most voters' intent -- most will intend to vote "against" Obama.

Saying that not to vote for Romney "is the same as voting for Obama," on the other hand, is a flat-out material falsehood meant to demonize those who refuse to vote for Romney. There's only one way to vote for Obama, and that's to mark his name on the ballot.

Just as there's only one way to vote for government tyranny -- and that is to mark a statist's name on the ballot. Both Obama and Romney are demonstrated statists, so a vote for either one is a vote for government tyranny.

From another thread of Jim's, earlier this evening (quoting Alan Keyes):

"I grieve deeply as I contemplate the fact that millions of Americans are letting themselves be caught in this diabolical snare. As I tried to point out in 2008, the lesser of evils is still evil. No matter how such an election turns out, people content to choose between Satan and Beelzebub have made clear their willingness to let things go to hell. Moreover, the nature of their choice is so clear to them that they practically boast of the passionate hatred that impels them to it. With this practical boast they become the willing, proud accomplices of the very evil they profess to hate."

Really does say it all, right there.

Wow .. so you read a book and now you want to lecture people here . You think the Republic will be restored just like that when it took over a century to get here ? Do as you please while I vote for Romney .
When was the last time you voted in a Federal election for someone ? How about just staying home this time around with your statist posture chest thumping my way or the highway . That works .
Demonizing you speak of ? Been here to long for you to mention that sort of thing . You and your type love to try slapping people around here so spare me .

The truth always bears repeating.
