The only thing worse then a liberal Democrat, is a liberal Republican. Most offensive, however, is a liberal Republican attempting to lie, deceive and hoodwink people into believing he's morphed into a conservative, after having spent a lifetime supporting liberal issues and liberal causes. That is nothing but political expediency and has nothing to do with principled conservatism.

Until he decided to run for President in 2007, Romney presented himself in public as a lifetime supporter of Roe v Wade; he consistently spoke out that women had a Constitutional right to kill their unborn children in the womb; he supported special rights for homosexuals and pandered for the gay/lesbian vote; he remains a supporter of gun control and limiting the rights of law abiding Americans to purchase and own firearms; he helped design and promote and later signed into law, government mandated and taxpayer subsidized universal healthcare coverage, the first step towards socialized medicine; he supported the $700-billion Bush-Paulson/Obama-Geithner September 2008 TARP bailout of Wall St. robber barons; and lately Romney has been caught praising Obama and even expressing his desire to see Obama succeed with his leftwing agenda of hope and change.

Romney also opposed the two most successful conservative policy endeavors of the last 30 years -— the Reagan conservative policy agenda of the 1980`s and the fiscally conservative policy agenda advanced through Newt Gingrich`s Contract With America in the 1990`s.

Romney's pandering conservative rhetoric for the last few years, shouldn't confuse anyone. Romney is not someone conservatives should be supporting for any elected position. Especially not for President of the USA.

Romney’s supporters try to paint him as a politician who has “come to see the light”, when it’s obviously clear the only light he sees is the one that he believes will most likely help his political career.

It’s not as if someone can’t change their mind, or come to understand concepts of law, or conservatism better, but when that change deals with a WIDE variety of issues, and it correlates with a new direction in one’s career how could someone take that seriously?

Besides, his actions speak way louder than words... By their fruits... Romney’s fruit is rotten...
