With all the lies told about Mitt Romney again and again on this forum by as Ann Coulter calls them Romney Froofers, and by Mass. Resistance a fringe group on the right, it is likely reason #1.
Is this letter a lie?
To the Members of the Log Cabin Club of Massachusetts:
I am writing to thank the Log Cabin Club of Massachusetts for the advice and support you have given to me during my campaign for the U.S. Senate and to seek the Club’s formal endorsement of my election. The Log Cabin Club has played a vital role in reinvigorating the Republican Party in Massachusetts and your endorsement is important to me because it will provide further confirmation that my campaign and approach to government is consistent with the values and vision of government we share.
I am pleased to have had an opportunity to talk with you and to meet many of you personally during your September meeting. I learned a great deal from those discussions and the many thoughtful questions you posed. As a result of our discussions and other interactions with gay and lesbian voters across the state, I am more convinced than ever before that as we seek to establish full equality for Americas gay and lesbian citizens, I will provide more effective leadership than my opponent.
I am not unaware of my opponent’s considerable record in the area of civil rights, or the commitment of Massachusetts voters to the principle of equality for all Americans. For some voters it might be enough for me to simply match my opponent’s record in this area. But I believe we can and must do better. If we are to achieve the goals we share, we must make equality for gays and lesbians a mainstream concern. My opponent cannot do this. I can and will.
We have discussed a number of important issues such as the Federal Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), which I have agreed to co-sponsor, and if possible broaden to include housing and credit, and the bill to create a federal panel to find ways to reduce gay and lesbian youth suicide, which I also support. One issue I want to clarify concerns President Clinton’s “don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t pursue” military policy. I believe that the Clinton compromise was a step in the right direction. I am also convinced that it is the first of a number of steps that will ultimately lead to gays and lesbians being able to serve openly and honestly in our nation’s military. That goal will only be reached when preventing discrimination against gays and lesbians is a mainstream concern, which is a goal we share.
As we begin the final phase of this campaign, I need your support more than ever. By working together, we will achieve the goals we share for Massachusetts and our Nation.
Sincerely,
W. Mitt Romney
TAdams8591 - I can guarantee you that I’m not a member of “Mass Resistance” or any what did you call them? Fringe group? That is unless you call Free Republic, the Republican Party, or the Christian church a “fringe” group. You’ve successfully brought the number of times I’ve been called a name on this thread to 13. When this thread started, I didn’t care for Mitt Romney. Now at post 800, I’m giving money to his political opponents and pledged to do so any and every time I see his rabid supporters ripping into me or another FReeper on this forum. Congratulations! You guys have made me wholly dislike Mitt Romney! For your comments, I donated $5 to SarahPAC this evening. Wanna make it $10? Go ahead and whirl another accusation at me or call me another name.
redgirlinabluestate - I pinged you because your fellow Mitt fan La Enchiladita brought you in in post 636 http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2241437/posts?page=636#636 so she could attack me for being on FR for less than a year and not supporting Mitt Romney. In post 795 http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2241437/posts?page=795#795 you accused me of “not being a conservative” for not supporting Mitt Romney. I can assure you that I’m more of a conservative in my left pinky finger than Slick Mitt is in his whole eugenics-loving body. Please refer back to any of the researched links about Mitt here: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2241437/posts?page=782#782(thank you Diogenesis for the links). For your comments, I donated another $5 to SarahPAC. Do you want to make it $10? Call me another name, keep this going and I will no doubt make another donation to your beloved Mitt Romney’s likely political opponent.
I will do this from now until 2012 if you want to. Call your Mitt buddies and get them in on it too! I guarantee you that every one of your delusional slams on me over Mitt Romney will result in further damage to your cause.
ansel12, Elsie, ejonesie22 & fieldmarshaldj - I’ve never met you guys on FR before today so thank you for supporting me with kind words against this barrage of lunacy and unwarranted hatefulness!
