The only thing I’m calm about is that one of the commies are losing. The time for being happy past a few weeks ago when Fred and Hunter dropped out.
A vote for Romeny is a vote against Reconquista, there is not other way to look at the current choices.
Who are these little kids? They’re adorable.
“if you watched the debate, then you saw McCain smile and talk to himself as if he were hearing voices in his head. He was unable to answer questions. The other week he was helped off the plane by his wife.”
I didn’t see that, couldn’t watch the debate. Sounds like he’s falling apart.
There is no way to know what Romney will do...
How can you support someone that really has no solid positions? He is like supporting air from a conservative stanpoint. His record in Mass that so liberal that he could have beat Obama in the Dem primary.
They are mine. Thank you. :)
He will not give the Southwest away to Mexico and based on that alone you should vote for him over McCain.
They took down “RomneyTruthFile” probably because Romney is the conservative’s only hope now.
So . . . you think Laura Ingram, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter are all full of it? Hmmmm. Maybe you need to rethink your position.
McCain is the one that is worse than Hillary. Ann Coulter and my husband will support Hillary if John McCain gets the nomination. I will just stay home and not vote.
Go, Mitt!!

There is also other information available. It takes time to be able to sift through to figure out what Romney’s current, past, past past, etc., positions were/are. For instance, concerning RINO Romney, being a conservative means one does not voluntarily force clerks to issue wedding licenses to same-sex couples.
Experts: Credit Romney for homosexual marriage ‘What he did was exercise illegal legislative authority’
“What Romney did [was] he exercised illegal legislative authority,” Herb Titus said of the governor’s actions after the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court released its opinion in the Goodridge case in 2003. “He was bound by what? There was no order. There wasn’t even any order to the Department of Public Health to do anything.”
Romney Violated Massachusetts Constitution by Ordering ‘Same-Sex Marriage’
44 U.S. pro-family leaders signed letter asking him to recant illegal orders
Meg Jalsevac | HARRISBURG, PA, January 19, 2007
A letter addressed to Massachusetts’ ex-governor Mitt Romney has just been made public in which 44 conservative, pro-family leaders from across the nation requested that before stepping down from office, Romney would adhere to the Massachusetts Constitution and repeal his order directing public officials to perform ‘same-sex marriages’.
The letter was hand delivered to members of Romney’s staff on December 20th, 2006 at his office. Romney took no action to adhere to the letter’s requests before he left office at the beginning of the New Year.
The letter cited numerous, historical cases and the Massachusetts’ Constitution to assert that Romney’s actions in implementing ‘gay marriage’ were beyond the bounds of his authority as governor. The authors further asserted that his actions were unconstitutional as were the actions of the four initial judges who formulated the official opinion on the matter in the ‘Goodridge’ case, the case that originally brought the matter to national attention.
Commenting on the ‘Goodridge’ opinion, Judge Robert Bork said that it was “untethered to either the Massachusetts or United States Constitution.”...
I listened to the following tapes (as well as all the others; there are 8 audio links altogether) in their entirety and found them quite enlightening and educational concerning RINO Romney. I think reading and listening to each of them is time well spent.
The Romney Same-Sex Marriage Deception Boiled Down
On November 7, Sandy Rios of WYLL-AM1160 in Chicago interviewed John Haskins, a former journalist and editor who is now a political analyst with the Parents’ Rights Coalition. in Massachusetts.
The page with the audio link to the full interview is here; the link is at the third paragraph. The last quarter of the audio is on another topic.
In advance of Mitt Romney’s “I am (insert name of his religion here), hear me roar” speech on Thursday, I am providing selected audio excerpts from the Rios-Haskins interview, along with full transcripts of those excerpts after the jump (if you’re on the home page).
There really is no substitute for reading the whole transcript or listening to all audio segments. But, as with the “Romney, the Courts, and the Constitutions” series, as a service to those in a time crunch, I am boiling it down, this time providing key quotes for each segment.
A HT and intense thanks to Matt at Weapons of Mass Discussion for creating the separate segments. If this is to make a difference, it could not have been made without you.
Part 1 (audio link)
Key Quotes:
John Haskins — “…it was something strategically very significant when he promised the Log Cabin homosexual Republican group, when he was running against Ted Kennedy bank in 1994, running for the US Senate, that he could be more effective than Ted Kennedy in advancing the gay agenda. …. that is a profoundly significant statement and an insight that Romney had — that as a Mormon, as a Republican, he had far more leverage to implement a radical gay agenda than a Democrat could have had.”
Part 2 (audio link)
Key Quote:
Haskins — “….. while campaigning for governor in 2002, Romney secretly promised to the Log Cabin homosexual Republicans that when the anticipated ruling came forth from the court, that he would abdicate his constitutional duty to defend the Constitution.”.........................
Creating a means for homosexual marriages is not a conservative position.
Then there’s the issue of RomneyCare; that’s not conservative; it’s socialistic. Socialist health care is bad. Canadians already know this:
A Short Course in Brain Surgery
A Short Course in Brain Surgery highlights the plight of an Ontario man with a cancerous brain tumor who crossed the border to the U.S. to get the medical care that is rationed in his home country.
Additionally, Romney has by far and away appointed liberals to the bench. That is anything but conservative. More importantly, it is not something that should be dismissed as unimportant.
Governor Romney appointed 36 judges but a check of their political affiliation confirms that only 9 of them are Republicans. Two are radical gay activists and 14 are registered Democrats. The remainder are unenrolled. Since Massachusetts Democrats are among the most pro-abortion Democrats in America, we have to assume that the majority of Romney’s judicial appointments are NOT pro-life.
The article, above-cited, lists additional concerns that conservatives have with Romney and who he claims to be.
Romney on Abortion - 2002

The following article speaks volumes about Romney’s conservatism:
http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2005/12/09/romney_says_no_hospitals_are_exempt_from_pill_law/
Romney reversed his stand and in the process obligated Catholic hospitals to provide abortificants.

I am very disappointed with talk radio and many of the conservative talking heads. Campaigning and opposing a candidate is one thing, and is part of healthy political discourse. However, refusing to support the nominee of your party during the general election, in a time of war no less, is disgraceful. We have been slamming the left for a few years now about their constant defeatism and negativity. We accuse them of wanting the US to fail, wanting the economy to slump, wanting the US to lose in Iraq, because doing so would hurt the GOP and help the liberal cause. Now, we have members of our own party doing essentially the same thing. We have Ann Coulter vowing to vote for Hillary Clinton, with the hope that she runs the country into the ground and mismangages the war so much it causes a massive backlash and returns the power to the conservatives. In essence, conservatives are willing to surrender the war in Iraq, and the war on terror based on a dislike for John McCain.
I am hoping that this is hot air, and that once McCain is officially the nominee they come to their senses and support him. The stakes are too high to play politics when we risk Hillary Clinton as Commander in Chief. As an OIF combat veteran, I plead with you to not allow this to happen. Too many have sacrificed to win this war to give it away because we don't agree with a man's position on global warming or campaign finance reform.
Laura invites Mad Maddie Albright to plug her stupid book on her show and we are supposed to care who she votes for?
Bug off Laura.
