In what areas are they different?
Both are not pro-life.
Both are pro-gun grab.
Both are pro-homosexual agenda.
Both are pro-government mandates.
Both are man made global warming.
Both are pro-minimum wage.
Both are big government guys.
Both only want to work with democrats.
and that’s just in brief.......

If you think there is no difference between obama and Romney on issues such as national Defense, the war on Islamofacism, border security, welfare revision, taxation, then please, go back to sleep.

The shame is, FR was once a great site. We led the charge in 2000, both before and after th eelection, we were the first to expose Rathers lies re: Bush in 04, etc.

National media followed FR all the time for the latest info.

Now, it’s mostly a bunch of crazies, haters, and some crazy haters.

The newsbreak on my talk radio station actually mentioned a story about Mormons being criticized by Jews for posthumously baptizing Holocaust survivors. SRN News I think? Kind of odd, I don’t remember them ever covering any news stories about Mormons before. Maybe they’re “with Rick.”

My point is, if you want a Mormon Theocracy, vote Mitt.

RightwardHo, you should make that your tagline. It would be the perfect ending to every post.

We don't need to go to sleep, you need to wake up! Have you investigated these issues at all? Romney wants taxes to be higher if you make $200,000 or more. Obama's only for $250,000 or more. Romney indicated he wants to preserve the welfare safety net as is, although he would tie the minimum wage to inflation, which makes him more liberal than Obama. He has essentially said he can't consider cutting taxes on the rich or reforming welfare because he's a rich guy and the optics on that would look bad. Romney's flip-flopped all over the place on immigration, so no one can really say where he stands. Likelihood he compromises and grants a big amnesty...I'd say 85%. Can you name any difference on Obama's national security position vs. Romney's? I think it's pretty clear Romney will continue bombing terrorists from drones and would never consider doing a ground invasion of a country, just like Clinton and Obama. Liberal presidents have a similar attitude to war. They'll do it as long as they don't get their hands dirty and there won't be any casualties to bring down their poll numbers. It's the cowardly, hands-off, "when the going gets tough, the not-so-tough go home" (e.g. Somalia) strategy that led directly to 9/11.

It's me, I'm the guilty one, I confess! Crazy, hater, and anti-mormon is the least of what the cultkissers call former mormons who went over the wall...tell you what...give me that 20 years of my life back, and I'll kiss Mitt.

Crazies? And this is only from this short thread.


The US Senate is already under Mormon control.

#6 Reid has said he governed the way he does because he is a mormon, so the statement is not incorrect.
#15 Romney is a mormon of the highest level, which means he has sworn to certain core beliefs one of which his honor and duty lie first to SLC lds. Romney has been trained, and groomed to fulfill the lds ‘white horse prophecy’, whether you beleive it or not, he does. Part of that prophecy is the only an lds can restore the constitution and create a mormon lead theocracy.
People who understand mormonism, understand these issue. They do appear ‘crazy’ if you do not understand mormonism and what that means to Romney.
Apparently, for you guys understanding what Romney believes at his core is not important, fine that is your choice and right to not understand.
It would be prudent to learn about mormonism, before you diatribe against those of us who know mormonism.
As a side note, neither one of those examples are hate, just saying.

Nor did I indicate they were hate...just “crazy”, as in black helicopter, Illuminati, Freemasons are running the world, or maybe Jews are running the world, tinfoil hat nutty.

I’ll play along, however. If Romney becomes President, what will be his first act to get the Mormon Theocracy rolling? Something specific in mind??

Lol!! Is there a big Noahides gonna take over the country conspiracy in your Tinfoil bag as well?

I note you give no example, the Hallmark of the Nutball Conspiracy Theorist. Maybe George Noory has one? Are there UFOs involved as well?

Seriously, I’m embarrassed for you. But carry on!

The next POTUS will either be Zaphod Beeblebrox or the Republican nominee. No third party candidate will be anything but a spoiler. That’s enough for me right there. Literally ANYONE on the repub side is better than what we have now. Olympia Snowe or Scott Brown would be a step up. You can make all the generalizations you want, but Romney would still be a Republican president, subject at least to some degree to the political realities of the position. What he wouldn’t be (hopefully!) is a sock puppet for a commie billionaire bent on destroying western civilization, with a host of fellow travelers helping him in congress, the media and the courts. I don’t like the guy either, but you got to throw a patch over the bullet hole before the healing can start - maybe he can do that much and we can get a conservative the next time around. In the meantime I will vote for Santorum in the primary and hope that anyone other than Romney gets the nod......but I WILL vote for the republican nominee in the general election no matter who it is. It is literally national suicide to do otherwise.
