Choosing between Romney and Obama is a bit like choosing between death by gun shot, or by arsenic. Either one is going to kill you. May as well fight back, and make the bastards work to kill you.
Romney's "accomplishments".
1. Implemented/created Gay Marriage in MA
2. Supported and forced Gay Adoption in MA
3. Supported Abortion wholeheartedly
4. Raised taxes/fees over 300% while being Governor of MA
5. Implemented a state-level Cap and Trade system.
6. Supported Man-Made Global Warming
7. Supported the Brady Bill
8. Implemented a state level Assault Weapons Bill after the Federal AWB was allowed to expire
9. Supported TARP
10. Supported Amnesty for Illegal Aliens (Citizenship for those already here)
11. Supported McCain-Kennedy(Amenesty)
12. Implemented a socialized medicine in MA called RomneyCare complete with an Individual Mandate and $50 abortions
13. Nominated 27 Democrats (out of 36 nominations) for judgeships in MA, many of them extreme left-wingers
“Exaggerating? Then I guess you’re calling Jim Rob and every honest conservative on this forum a liar. You’re also calling Romney’s actual record a lie.”
I think Robinson’s wrong on this, and there are other people who have a Mormon problem on here. I didn’t vote for Romney in the primary.
Gotta be careful with that or you end up like Chris Johnson’s ‘Little Green Footballs’ site.
Nothing but yes-men... and the guy when bat-s@#t crazy on his site.
8-10 years ago, though... it was an up and coming conservative site.
And the primary is over.
But there’s no drama in that.
Much more satisfying to some egos to say, “Look at me! I’m leaving!”
Demanding to know if somebody went door to door or worked phone lines for any given candidate, is likewise prying.
It is NOT prying - don't be such a drama queen!! And no one is demanding, you are fearful or is it guilt that you didn't do what should have been done for our country. Good doesn't drop out of the sky. It's not an entitlement, you must work for it which seems to bother you when it's brought up.
Now scoot along and start minding your own business and stop hanging onto me. You look childish and needy.
“Did you vote for Newt or send him a large donation?”
No large donation,not enough money. Who I voted for is none of your business,but it wasn’t Mitt.
I learn from FR and rarely express a political opinion unless it is to criticize Obama.Since it appears that Romney will be our candidate I will hold my nose and vote for him.
What was it Reagan said about passing freedom and liberty down to our kids through our genes? The extinction of those two essential qualities of life is never more than a generation away.
We grey hairs may be the last, best chance this nation has to put up a great enough fight to turn back the tide of Communism.
I guess they could do worse, like post photoshopped pics of Helen Thomas in the buff.
No. It’s not. You’re surrendering before the last battle. Unfortunately you aren’t the only coward.
OK, you are willfully blind. Are you saying when you enter the booth to vote there are only 2 candidates on the ballot and no write in space?
Because on mine there are several. And I can freely vote for anyone, including the Little Mermaid. And yes, she’s more conservative and suited for running
America than Mitt Romney. Even if she isn’t real. Because neither is he. They are both inventions of someone else.
How will four years of romney be any different that another four years with obomba? As for your "capitalist" comment that's bs. Obomba has done just as good a job of lining his pockets as romney has.
Please.... Put up some comparisons. Show me how romneycare is different from obombacare. Show me how romney's pro-abortion voting record is different from obomba's. Show me how romney's big government policies are any different from obombas..... Show me. Don't just run your mouth. Put up some evidence. I can give you decades of conservative votes and conservative results from Newt. I can't find ONE SINGLE CONSERVATIVE thing romney's done. Like you all romney does is talk. Where's his conservative record? I'm waiting.
I was right when I accused you of being a Kool-Aid drinking robot. Make that Romneybot.
Please take the time to pray about your vote this coming November.
If we do like you suggest and NOT vote for Romney, then we hand Obama another 4 years to push the country towards socialism. So if you don't vote AGAINST Obama then you in effect vote FOR him.
You remind me of some members of a church I used to attend....it was perfection or nothing. Sadly, sometimes we have to take the best option in a bad situation.
Please pray about your decision.....I know I'll do the same.
Yeah he is - he into the twiddle winks now.
Wusses lie and live in fear. Mitt’s evil now surrounds him - he owns them. They are subservient to him.
Yes, Romney is the worst nominee for the Republican party but he is still better than Obama the socialist.
I think that Republicans and Conservatives who live in critical battleground states where the entire Presidential elections is won and lost then it is highly recommended that they vote for Romney despite all the many problems with him. However those who live in states where Romney is assured to win or Obama is assured to win no matter what then they have the luxury of not voting for the President spot on the ballot. Most importantly it is extremely important that every Republican and Conservative get out to vote because Republicans must a least keep the House and hopefully win the Senate so even if Obama wins his damage would be greatly limited. Having said that the best scenario at the end is to defeat Obama next November...
I'm not sure I'm following you. I was not a Romney supporter. I was pulling for Newt, well actually Perry, then Newt but the contest is all but over and Romney is going to win. My thoughts on the subject are exactly as Breitbarts'. I will support whoever is opposing Obama as the Republican Nominee. I can assure you I'm very stable in my position. Obama must go, NOW.
If you are conservative and want to advance the conservative platform I can absolutely assure you that it's a mistake to not support Mitt Romney if he is the Republican Nominee. Obama is a card carrying communist, is ineligible to serve and is engaged in a systematic distruction of our way of life.
For those like Jim that think we are best to let Obama have another 4 years rather than support the establishment Republican you are making a dangerous miscalculation.
Even if we were to take both houses of congress the rollback of Obama policies and damage will NOT begin for another 4 years. Obama may get two more supreme court appointments in that time. Then at the end of his second term the voters may turn against the ineffective Republicans and give up the house or senate. Then What? Wait another 8 years to overturn Obamacare and a thousand other assaults on our liberty?
lastly, I will point out that what was suggested in the OP is forgetting one VERY important fact. Obama will still be Commander in chief. He could very well get us into a MAJOR conflict and literally put the entire country in peril.
This bull headed, I'm not giving up my conservative principles foolishness is downright dangerous at this stage of the game. This is my last post on the subject and I hope you all take a step back and think about what you are doing before it's too late. We don't know what Obama might do in a second term. Obama must go, NOW!
