Except for his unfortunate go along to get along support of TARP, bailouts, stimulus spending and the increased credit limit, etc, Ryan is a pretty good choice. Probably the best choice of the RINOS that were on Romney's short list. I support Ryan for the vice presidency. Wish he were at the top of the ticket, though.
But I still cannot and will not support the grand father of ObamaCare. Romney still loves and brags about his bastard brainchild, RomneyCare, even today when he knows what an anti-liberty socialist POS it is.
And the fact that he advocated that abortion should be safe and legal in America for over three decades of his adult lifetime and even advocated that Roe v Wade should be supported and sustained as settled law precludes any consideration whatsoever by this pro-life Christian for Myth Romney for the presidency.
And the fact that he boasted that he would be better for "gay rights" than Ted Kennedy, and proved it just increases my resistance.
That, and his penchant for gun control, his continuing support for global warming, gays in the scouts, gays in the military, and his record of appointing liberal judges makes it all but impossible for me to support him.
Lastly, we're having a bit of changeover on our moderator staff. At least two moderators resigned this afternoon after I flatly refused to rein in a so-called anti-Mormon "bigot" on FR. Well, if being in opposition to false prophets and false prophecy makes a Christian believer a bigot, then I guess I'm a bigot. I've posted before that I flat do not believe that the Book of Mormon is the true word of God. Nor do I believe that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God. The Christian bible warns us to be weary of false prophets and that I am. Romney being the presumptive Republican nominee does not change that fact.

“I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: “I’m ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don’t accept His claim to be God.” That is the one thing we must not say. A man who said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic — on a level with the man who says he is a poached egg — or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God: or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.”

Well, you’ve got quick fingers, getting #3000 as well as 3001.
We just don't want to reelect what seems to be his favorite candidate to continue destroying America.
God help us if we get another four years of Hugo Chavez Kardashian Jr. because of the likes of him.
Good night.

This site has become a shameful display of vitriol and phony conservatism.
***Then opus out. You’ve contributed plenty of vitriol yourself, without answering questions put to you. And your brand of conservatism doesn’t seem to match FR’s, so go and convert some 0bots to mittbots. Everyone agrees that such a thing is the right course of action, rather than sowing discord among conservatives as you have been doing here.
"... and, all throughout, in the meantime: Not. One. Single smarmy, self-martyring 'O U H8TERS' scold -- no, not even the two recently penning preening elegiacs professing their purported adoration for JimRob -- have even once stated, baldly, in response: 'No. That's wrong. That's simply beyond the human pale.'"
"For that reason, if none other: nothing they mewl need be taken even remotely seriously, by any sentient or rational being.
"N-o-t-h-i-n-g. Nothing."
Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
You’re fulla bowlsheet. Why don’t you ‘explain’ it to JimRob? He sees it the same way. But does he “want to reelect what seems to be his favorite candidate to continue destroying America? Does he “refuse to listen, having become an Axelrod conservative”? Are you saying, “God help us if we get another four years of Hugo Chavez Kardashian Jr. because of the likes of JimRob”? No, you’re not, because JR has authority, he holds the lightning bolt and regular freepers do not. Even though JR sees it exactly in the same way. That makes you a bootlicker, saying such things about another freeper rather than straight to the boss.
//////these men are our choices like it or not.....how can one hand it to the one dedicated to a church that can destroy your soul?????? //////
he’s not my pastor.....
Not slavish, but loyal to our broad based conservative party. Thinking loyalty is also a conservative virtue. And to consider Romney “left wing” and to prefer Obama to Romney is nothing but delusional. That kind of thinking will lead to the socialization of the US. Good luck with that.
We’d love to. Tell your fellow liberal voters to stop trashing those of us with a willingness to uphold conservative values.
Then go ahead and do whatever you like. Until then, don’t be shocked when we don’t sit there and take it. Remember. It’s not us abandoning what we believe in after all.
