[Joe27]

DeMint recently denounced the mandate in the Senate bill as follows:

Not only is an individual mandate unconstitutional, but it will increase premiums for hard-working Americans — further making insurance coverage unaffordable — and will force more people onto government-run programs.

But during the presidential primaries, DeMint endorsed the health care plan Romney developed as Governor of Massachusetts, calling it “innovative” and claiming he supported Romney because he “believes all Americans should have a health plan that they can afford, own and keep.” __________________________________

rs. We have an establishment insider like Dick Armey playing a big role in our outsider movement. We can’t make the mistake of just forgiving the guys we like...that’s how we’ll fail in our mission of restoring conservatism as the standard for the party

Right On - Right On!

“Totally agree with this. Mitt’s history (or at least I hope so!)”

BEWARE THE VAPID REFLUX!

I’ll ban every pro-Romney poster if I have to.

MOVED AND SECONDED!!!

Where do I stand on Romney and DeMint? Neither one has what the country needs in a president at this point in time. Our next president has to be able to mobilize the new attitude the tea party is bringing to Washington. The old guard just won’t cut it. The Washington scene needs to be turned upside down, inside out and roundly kicked in the ass. IMO, Sarah Palin is just the person for the job.

Calling Romney a "hero"?
Romney is a hero to Obama because the BACKSTABBER threw the Election to Obama
by having his RomneyBOTs attack Gov. Palin and her CHILDREN.

That makes him a "HERO" to you?

"Former Mitt Romney presidential campaign staffers…
have been involved in spreading anti-Palin spin to reporters, seeking to diminish her standing after the election.
'Sarah Palin is a lightweight, she won't be the first, not even the third, person people will think of when it comes to 2012,'
says one former Romney aide…
'The only serious candidate ready to challenge to lead the Republican Party is Mitt Romney.
"Some former Romney aides were behind the recent leaks to media, including CNN, that Governor Sarah Palin was a 'diva' and was going off message intentionally."

---

The Palmetto Scoop reported:
"The sources said nearly 80 percent of Romney’s former staff was absorbed by McCain and these individuals were responsible for what amounts to a premeditated, last-minute sabotage of Palin."
that Palin would be a serious contender for the Republican nomination in 2012 or 2016, which made her a threat to another presidential quest by Romney.

"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"

"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"

"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"

"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"

"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"

...you may be right about the Massachusetts program. And the AWESOME thing is, the people and institutions of Massachusetts ought to go about CHANGING the dang thing.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

Jim, thank you. RINOmney is an unworthy candidate.
I appreciate you upholding the identity of this
site as CONSERVATIVE. There are lots of demonrat
sites that will flack for RINOmney.

This thread seems to be like a light drawing RINOmney
bugs...

Not saying much. My three basement cats are far, far better than any dim.

[Undocumented_capitalist]

Correct you are about your 3 cats.

So the problem is not on repub side, it is on the dimocrat side. ALl their candidates suck air.

[TheOldLady]

Amen.

So, you’ll vote for Bobbie, Lucas Prince of Darkness, and Shadow for presidentz? They don’t have birth certificates either. ;-)

[Undocumented_capitalist]

Do you know what is common between Obama and Gosh?
No one has seen Gosh’s birth certificate either.

Do you know what is different between Obama & Gosh?
Gosh does not think he is Obama.

[TheOldLady]

LOL! I get it.
