Vanity : Do We Really Want Newt or Santorum to Pull Out?

Posted on 03/12/2012 7:07:09 AM PDT by Shery

A lot of people have been calling for Santorum or Newt to get out. I say that is bunk and here's why. If one does pull out, that leaves Romney in first or second place in ALL the rest of the states. If Santorum and Newt can win 1st and 2nd in many of the remaining states, that pushes Romney to the back of the bus, or at least slows his delegate count, so I think both need to stay. The fewer delegates Romney wins the better! Why do you think he's calling for everybody else to get out? Because he knows that as it stands, he is likely NOT to get to 1144 this way, either. So, let's all stop the nonsense (and the in-house bickering it is causing among us) and let our two conservatives beat Romney this time around. This IS a winning strategy, if you want to look at it that way. If one pulls out, Romney is the automatic winner. Otherwise, we decide on the convention floor who is the nominee. The last I saw, Newt was winning a brokered convention, with Santorum second. I say that we take this to the convention!

To expand on your point, what’s been happening is that the “smoke-filled room” takes place five years before the election, when the moneyed interests line up behind the establishment’s choice. That’s when the election is settled. The primary elections are for show.

The Left knows this, which is why they’ve been keying on Romney for years, as in their campaign against the 1%.

I cannot vote for someone is not 100% pro-life, including no contraceptive pill or any device that would kill a fertilized human egg

I agree. I have never ever voted for any candidate that was not 100% pro-life, and I do not plan on starting now.

God is the only One who has the right to decide when and if the woman's womb will be blessed with life, NOT MAN!

In Genesis 38:9-10, we learn that Onan was told to take his deceased brothers wife as his to carry on his brothers line. A practice that would later be incorporated into the Mosaic law is called a Levirate Marriage (Deuteronomy 25:5) Now we can argue that the very thought of such a practice is absurd today, but it matters not for my point.

So when Onan went in unto his brother's wife, he spilled his seed (sperm)on the ground. He did not want his first born to be called his brothers. By doing so, he displeased the LORD: Thus God Killed him.

Now, it is true that part of what was displeasing to God, in this instance, was the fact that he was deliberately trying to avoid carrying out his duty to his dead brother in carrying on his family line. But he was also enjoying physical sexual intimacy while trying to manipulate the function of intercourse.

The bottom line is that he "spilled his seed" to avoid having children. Whatever his motive in doing this thing was, he was trying to manipulate God. He was pretending to obey God so that his father and everyone else would think he was being a good man, when in fact God knew what he had done, what we do in secret God will bring into the open one way or the other. Lesson is that God truly is the One who opens and closes the womb. .

For those who say some people cannot handle multiple children, I say they have no faith in Christ. If we have the faith of a mustard seed, we can move mountains Christ tells us. Our society is dieing because we are in direct violation of the first commandment God gave man in the garden, and after the flood. He never rescinded his command that we are to be fruitful and multiply.

We can all argue about if, when or why America will cease to be great, but I am of the opinion we will cease to be the America we now know. The reason will be because of our flagrant disobedience of His first commandment.

Heck, we not only spill the seed we kill the live child.

Romney will never get my vote, because I could never side with Satan over God. My faith in God and my clean conscience before Him is more important to me than whether a man with magic underwear leads us as apposed to a Muslim. Both are of Satan, and I will not side with Satan by using an excuse of voting for the lesser of two evils.

Just what happens if no one gets 1144 delegates? If Newt and Sanctorum continue, Romney might well come up shy, but then what?

Forgive my ignorance, I’m interested in knowing.
