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.
It’s interesting watching a site I value implode! I come here for true news. I’m in the swing state of Ohio, and I will vote for Romney. Don’t like him much at all but,,,,,
I want obama-—gone!
I want his cabinet-—gone!
I want his czars-—gone!
I want his political appointees-—gone!
I want his ability to appoint Supreme Court Justices-—gone
Voting for a Third Party candidate that will get 0.0001% of the vote?-—Stoopid!
“”Also, Robert Bork is on Mitts advisory team on judicial appointments, and thats, hopefully, a good thing. Right?””
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Bork
“Although an opponent of gun control,[29] Bork has denounced what he calls the “NRA view” of the Second Amendment, something he describes as the “belief that the constitution guarantees a right to Teflon-coated bullets.” Instead, he has argued that the Second Amendment merely guarantees a right to participate in a government militia.[30]”
Not to me.
LLS
He wears his faith values on his sleeve, doesn’t he?
agree
you go girl, WTF, seriously.
Ditto.
You missed the GOP ad blitzes that appear in traditional swing states? I hear about them, and even the MSM usually piles on Obama for these Pinocchios.
I think you just don’t want to believe such things happen.
Because a devout Catholic (the type which the GOP would like to seat on the court) would reason along these lines:
1. Guns are used in murder and make murder easier.
2. Therefore controlling or eliminating guns is “pro-life” on it’s face,
3. Ergo, the 2nd has to go.
OK, let’s say we get a weasel of a Catholic, ie, left-of-center like Roberts: Well, they’re just weasels and will go along with their left-of center views.
Guarantees Obama as the next president of the United Socialist States of Amerika.
Those who would also have baby tantrums if the shoe shifted to the other foot,
***Of course there would be tantrums, because JimRob has been clear from day one that Romney is unacceptable. Such things as the RomneyTruthFile would need to come down, pronto. Dozens of posts from JimRob would need to be “revised and extended”.
But the mittbot crowd just blithely overlooked all of that.
I don’t trust Romney. He has a history of going Left. What to do when if he wins and reverts to his past liberal modus operendi and the Republicans in the House and Senate go along?
Ditto to what Jim Robinson wrote. ABR individuals have valid concerns. We know Obama is a diaster and are wary Romney will be one as well.
I’m still on the fence about voting for Romney. His response to the Chick-fil-A issue was a strike against. I’m open to adding more pluses in favor of Romney.
My son once dated a girl who was a Southern Baptist. He went once to a Sunday service at her church and walked out when the preacher said Catholics were going to hell because of their veneration of the Virgin Mary.
Is Ryan now a target because he is a Catholic?
I read what you posted and it’s clear intent - That being to garner sympathy for the ABO mindset with a comparison to NAZI atrocities.
You posted your story. Why are you shocked that people respond to what you wrote? And BTW, what part of my reply was in any way/shape/form untrue?
'nuff said.
Christians DO NOT bow to EVIL. You cannot serve two masters!
"No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money."
You has message......
well said Sarah
, what is it with the bany tantrums by some because Jim does not support this RINo because RINO got Ryan
This is all pathetic and childish, I’ve seen posters say, ban me ,delete my account, etc WTH is wrong with this
That's all, just 2/3rds of the Senate? How do you expect to do that?
Are you insane?
The Democrats have 51 seats in the Senate and control 53 with the two independents that caucus with them.
The Republicans have 47 seats, NOT ALL CONSERVATIVE BY A LONG SHOT! 33 Seats are up for grabs THIS TERM. Of those 21 are Democrats and 12 are Republicans. If the Republicans HOLD ALL THEIR SEATS, they would STILL need to get all but two of the remaining seats to have a 2/3 Super Majority. Than all they have to do is get ALL the Republicans to vote against O’Bumbler EVERYTIME HE ISSUES AN EO WOW, That is easier than nudging Romney to do the Conservative thing, Good Plan!.
I believe you should lay off the crack pipe, it seems to be affecting your ability to reason.
