Should Michael Steele Resign, Who Would Be The Ideal Replacement?

[TheTeaPartyChannel]

There's Probably At Least 12 Candidates On The List. Let us hear who you want to see in that position. I am sure many conservatives will push for either Sarah Palin,Mitt Romney or Ron Paul. Never the less, we have plenty of "A-List Conservatives" to consider. WHO's YOUR PICK ?

[shibumi]

"What exactly is wrong with what Romney said? "

I'm not going to call you names. There's more at work here than just a gut reaction.

What's wrong with the statement is the fact that it implies credibility to The Usurper's motives.

It assumes that he is capable of doing something that is not either directly or indirectly designed to destroy the United States.

I, and others like me, do not believe that he ever has our best interest at heart.

[Diogenesis]

It is YOU who is dishonest. I said,

“Mitt Romney (backstabber) backs TARP and ObamaCARE (=RomneyCARE). Nothing wrong you say?”

The TARP endorsement by Romney is above in post #2.
So you now claim that Romney does NOT back RomneyCARE
and ObamaCARE. WOW!!!!! Go Mythster.

I’m probably unfairly basing my decision on Blackwell on one interview, but this is the one:

Thanks for the information. I didn’t know any of that, just based my thoughts on the impression I got of him. back to the drawing board...Lynn Cheney too old?

[Diogenesis]

shibumi: "I, and others like me, do not believe that he ever has our best interest at heart."

Exactly. And that is why Team Romney threw the election
to Obama and the DNC by attacking Gov. Palin.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Agreed.Should have been the guy all along but we dont get to pick rnc chair.

[SoCalPol]

Yes, Ken is a well spoken person and would be great.

[OldDeckHand]

"Lynn Cheney too old?"

I don't think so. She's about the same age as Hilary, maybe just a year or two older. Plus, she lives in NoVA.

Whomever they pick, has to have had successful administrative experience, know how to fund raise like nobody's business, and be very media savvy hopefully by demonstrating prior success with at least a couple of national or at least statewide political campaigns.

It is YOU who is dishonest. I said,

OK, I tried to have a straightforward discussion with you. You couldn't handle it and started calling names. Sorry you have to behave like a brat who can't answer simple questions.

“Mitt Romney (backstabber) backs TARP and ObamaCARE (=RomneyCARE). Nothing wrong you say?”

Which has absolutely zero to do with my original question, which was (as you can see right there on the post itself) a response to Post #2--go ahead and look at my post, which was not a post to post #1, but to post #2.

This is the Romeny quote in post #2 I've left in the quotes from Romney--so you won't accuse me of censorship, simply go back to post #2 and see the entire quote):

"I also think it's important for us to nod to the president when he's right,"

Romney said.... he's pleased with the president's plans to "finish the job" in Iraq and Afghanistan

He also applauded the president for standing up to the auto industry. "I hope he continues to be tough"

....Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, saying that after a series of initial missteps, "I think he's finally getting close to the right answer."

So--what is wrong with saying we have to point out when the president is right? (If he's ever right about anything, I sure will say so.) If Obama came out and said something we agree with, like, say, when he approved waaaay back when of killing the pirate who was holding one of our people, shouldn't we say "OK, we agree with that"? Doesn't that show that our criticism is to be taken with the same weight?

Don't we all want Obama to finish the job in Iraq and Afghanistan? The RIGHT way, yes, but isn't that specifically what we want?

Don't we all want Obama to stand up to unions? Isn't saying this laying the groundwork to later say "Well, he didn't continue to be tough"?

Ditto for "I think he's finally getting close to the right answer."--isn't that another political comment, setting up a later, "Alas..."?

I asked a simple question about a specific quote.

You didn't want to answer it, and lied, claiming I was supporting ANOTHER quote (which I did not support--an honest person will come right out and say that).

Please explain how that is anything but dishonesty.

I expect you'll just respond as you did before, so that's that. But if we want to be taken seriously by those we have to convince to come to our way of thinking, we have to start by being honest with and about each other.

[shibumi]

I want to be clear.

I was referring to The Kenyan Usurper (I try very hard not to write or speak its name.)

That being said, I don’t trust Romney either. My perception is that he is just a younger, healthier and smarter version of McCain.

I just changed my tagline. The one I was using was a quote from Ayn Rand. “In any compromise between good and evil, it is only evil that can profit.”

The Kenyan is Evil. Romney is a Compromise.

[Darkwolf377]

The words Romney said are those of a politician. Romeny has a history of hopping around and taknig positions that he thinks will get him elected. He's a non-issue for president, in my book.

But nothing he said in the quote I asked about is so terrible. He said he hoped Obama finishes the wars, stands up to unions, and that Geithner gets to the right place. Foolish hopes, but these are political statements I don't disagree with--I want Obama to finish the wars (the right way), stand up to unions, and get a clue.

This rabid hatred for Romney is bizarre when it turns people into , uh, people who just slobber whenever they have the opportunity. It's tiring and anti-intellectual. We need to discuss issues, not just lie about people as the poster has on this thread about me, because I had the audacity to point to ONE quote Romney said, and suggested that in that one, single quote, Romney might not be the anti-Christ.

[Darkwolf377]

I don't recall saying I thought Romney should be president--on one of these threads, I even said I don't want him to even be party chair.

For that, I guess, I'm a Romneybot.

Uh, ok...

Romney is a Compromise.

Who's disagreeing with you?

[Diogenesis]

I am amazed when I see RomneyBOTs defend Obama on so much.

You defend Romney's support of Obama on Afganistan
where he has increased the murders of Americans by preventing normal ROE.

You defend Romney's support of Obama on TARP and excessive spending
when it has destroyed the country.

You defend Romney's support of Obama on his union use
when it has wrought violence against conservatives.

You probably also defend Romney's support of Obama
on his absence of a birth certificate
because Romney's parents are also not of American birth.

[Cold Heat]

Romney is a classic politician, but not a McCain. He, like Reagan made compromises when the opposition was too strong to get all of what he wanted. Reagan was happy with 40%.

Last election, I felt Romney was the better of the two or three, and I backed him. I had to hold my nose to vote for McCain and did, but I could not do it again.

I don't think he will run if we get a strong candidate list and not a big one like last time.

I hope we do that. But if we don't, and he runs, I'll back him again if I must.

Lie #1 by Diogenesis:

You defend Romney's support of Obama on Afganistan where he has increased the murders of Americans by preventing normal ROE.

Please quote where I did this.

You can't, because I didn't.

Lie #2 by Diogenesis:

You defend Romney's support of Obama on TARP and excessive spending when it has destroyed the country.

Please quote where I did this.

You can't, because I didn't.

Lie #3 by Diogenesis

You defend Romney's support of Obama on his union use when it has wrought violence against conservatives.

Man, you're making this too easy for me:

Please quote where I did this.

You can't, because I didn't.

Lie #4 by Diogenesis

You probably also defend Romney's support of Obama on his absence of a birth certificate because Romney's parents are also not of American birth.

You know, when you just lie about people like this, you reveal yourself to be someone without the intelligence to engage in honest discussion. When you lie because you don't have the intelligence to respond to what someone actually writes, you show a basic lack of integrity.

All because you knew you couldn't answer my simple, direct initial question, and had to...lie.

You lose. Game over. Liar.

[Diogenesis]

If Mitt Romney is anywhere near the next election, Obama wins.
RomneyCARE neutralizes ObamaCARE.
Romney support of illegals neutralizes Obama's.
Romney's parents of Mexican birth neutralize the Obama absent birth certificate issue.
Romney's destruction of Massachusetts neutralizes Obama's destruction of America.
Romney's destruction of the Mass. Constitution to impose gay marriage neutralizes Obama's destruction of the US Constitution.

And by making the carpetbagging backstabber the candidate,
given that Team Romney attacked Gov Palin during Election 2008 to throw the election to Obama,
most Americans would agree that the GOP would not deserve to win, anyway.

[Diogenesis]

Why dont you look in post #30 where you support Obama
on all those things.

[shibumi]

I'm not disagreeing with you, nor do I assume you are with me.

I was trying to demonstrate to you one reason why someone (like me) might view anything Romney says with a jaundiced eye.

I'm just stuck in that utopian view of politics that Franklin spoke of when he envisioned a Congress that was unpaid, and served a term as a service to the country, rather than the debauched looters of today, along with their AufgeblasenBlutegelBourgeoisieBurokraten.

(I save my name-calling for those who truly deserve it.)
