Bobby Jindal wins Turkey of the Year Award

This self-promoting, narcissistic presidential aspirant did not even let the dust settle from the 2012 presidential campaign before he was hurling insults at Governor Romney. In the immediate aftermath of the election, Jindal made headlines for referring to the Romney campaign as “stupid.” He made a very public point of saying that he rejected Romney’s analysis of the election that Obama won by giving large “gifts” to certain minority groups. He called the remarks “insulting” and said that the Republican Party cannot win by demonizing people.

Your fanatical disparagement, not of what Romney says, but of the man himself, serves no constructive purpose.

By every measure, Romney is a decent, God fearing, family oriented American. If he was once a "Liberal," his whole basic orientation cries out to him to move to the Right--to move towards defending the heritage of family oriented Americans.

Moreover, the policies that he followed in Massachusetts, were policies that most of the people, there, seemed to want. I think that he was far more "Liberal," at one time; but even that may not be completely so. It is certainly a debatable point, whether one compromises his personal integrity, by giving people what they want in their own State.

Now, personally, I could not run for Governor of Massachusetts, advocating increased meddling in the peoples' lives--even were I a citizen of the State. I find intrusive Government fundamentally offensive. But I am not so opinionated that I cannot allow that someone else might feel that in saving people money, while humoring what they seem to want, I might still be serving.

But enough of this pointless argument. This thread is about whether Jindal should have attacked Romney for pointing out that those who got free cell phones, basically were bought voters. The idea of the free cell phones was to do that. Romney should be commended for calling it as it is.

I asked you a simple question, “”You would argue that Mitt Romney became pro-life over time, that he learned the truth, when did that happen? why? what changed in his life, what was his epiphany? What is Romney’s current position on abortion right now, as we post to each other, do you know?””

YOU are promoting the man’s politics as “”decent, God fearing, family oriented American””, well, did Romney reject the GOP pro-life platform, return to his abortion on demand position by returning to “health of the mother”, reiterate his support for homosexualizing Scout leaders and the Military?

Romney is a scoundrel, a man of low character, a pathological, ruthless liar, with ambitions and self aggrandizing passions that know no bounds. A leader within a cult, he literally thinks that he is becoming a God (SPEND A MOMENT ON THAT, ROMNEY ACTUALLY, TRULY, THINKS THAT WHAT YOU SEE, IS HIM COMPLYING WITH WHAT IS REQUIRED FOR HIM TO BECOME GOD, A GOD TO A PLANET, AS OUR GOD IS TO US), and it drives his life. To this day no one has any idea why he was obsessed with being president, you don’t even know his politics, and the man is 65, and has been involved in politics all of his life.

You acknowledge it yourself it when you tell us that he was lying and faking his radical leftist, pro-abortion, gay politics in Massachusetts, where he gave the nation Obamacare and gay marriage, merely so that he could then switch to being a conservative president, how bizarre is your belief in the guy, to think such a fantastical thing, to want to believe such a bizarre thing?

Mitt entertained running in conservative Utah, or Massachusetts, which was a perfect match for his personal politics, he naturally chose to become the 4th GOP governor in a row, in Massachusetts.

“I think Bill Weld comes as close as anyone,” Romney said when asked whom in his party he aligned with.

“I was an independent during the time of Reagan-Bush. I’m not trying to return to Reagan-Bush,”

“I’m not a partisan politician. My hope is that, after this election, it will be the moderates of both parties who will control the Senate, not the Jesse Helmses.”

“These guns are not made for recreation or self-defense. They are instruments of destruction with the sole purpose of hunting down and killing people.”
