Romney's Transition Leader Favors Implementing Obamacare

One of the few Republicans in the country who's been tirelessly pushing for the implementation of Obamacare at the state level has been tapped to head Mitt Romney's transition team, should he become president.

Former HHS Secretary Michael Leavitt, and his consulting group Leavitt Partners, are the primary advocates within Republican circles for implementation of Obamacare's exchanges. It just so happens that his consultancy is one of the major beneficiaries of the taxpayer funded gold mine of hundreds of millions of dollars in exchange implementation grants.

Sorry I wasted my time on you.

So sorry that you are determined to keep doing it!

The first gov to allow same sex marriage was ROMNEY. That's his legacy. And the first state to bring socialistic healthcare to his state was ROMNEY. That's his legacy. So someone already deceived by homo lifestyle - their flipping back and forth between ROMNEY&BO is no big deal. Evil attracts evil.

Agreed. The crackdown-side of the Central Committee, Hillary Romney, getting ready for the Trick action against the people. Wants to replace it with another False-Care scam.

The attempt at Federal Trick or Treat continues. The Coffee Server the Treat, Hillary Romney, the Trick. All for the D.C. connected.

It’s time to quit crying in your beer. We lost, good or not, fair or not. It’s time to start working on prepping the next battlefield.

Your lame platitudes mean nothing. You are utterly without principles, morals, or guts. To cite a quote from General George S. Patton (sometimes misattributed, but it works here), "I'd rather have a platoon of 0bamunists in front of me, than a platoon of Steamburgs behind me".

[Varsity Flight]

“Romney’s has been making some inroads with conservatives the past week and now we get this crap once again confirming Romney is Obamalite. “

Nope: Romney is HillaryHeavy.

Federal Trick or Treat. All masked at the front door. Undocumented Coffee Server Treat, or insidious replace False-Care with another scam, Hillary Romney Trick.

Romney makes 'day one' promises in TV advertisement (Obama agenda into the trash!)

...In a statement, the campaign says Mr Romney would support using an executive order to waive "Obamacare" for all 50 states, and the pipeline would be "approved" by Mr Romney...

[dinodino]

Romney sucks. I’m not voting for him.

[presently no screen name]

Newt said it from the beginning of his campaign and now, on May 19, 2012, Romney says it when he has no other opponent?

He is only whoring for votes. I guess that is too hard for you to get because you put your hope in a godless KNOWN LIAR.

[TomGuy]

Newt isn’t going to be on the presidential ballot.

When or what he said regarding his first day in office is irrelevant.

[presently no screen name]

Newt is relevant, he is a patriot. He’s a proven fighter for our Constitution. Shows where you are coming from.

Sadly, this discussion has degenerated to name calling and slurs. I am however, pleased to have exposed the thinness of the skin and lack of rational arguments offered by Paulbots and others of that ilk. I will be moving on to arguments about what is not what might have been. Thanks.

[Chgogal]

Damn you Romney.

You just lost my support.

There is no damned difference between you and Obama. You ran left of Kennedy. You ran from Reagan. You declared yourself a “Progressive”. You are proving yourself to be just another Damn Obama with this appointment.

I REJECT YOU.

Shame on you and shame on the RNC for letting you, a Damn ObamaLite POS win the Republican Nomination.

The Democrat party, controlled by a small faction of communists/socialists, is in a full out sprint for the cliff where they can leap into that factions oh so glorious utopia. The media, screaming and wetting their panties in excitement, cheering them on. The GOP-E and rinos, with Romney in the lead, are five yards back and mad as L that they wont be able to jump at the same time as their friends.

Both parties are well to the left of the political spectrum when they belong to the right of center. The Democrats slightly right of center and the Republicans further to the right.

Get lost, dirtbag.

All name calling is from ROMNEYBOTS, the most
vicious anti-Conservative group in the Universe.

[Diogenesis]

You cherry pick some of Mr. RomneyCARE’s statements,
but ignore Mr. RomneyCARE’s A*C*T*I*O*N*S which
prove his statements (as we all know, but
RomneyBOTs ignore) are lies. Calculated LIES.

Romney is a liberal.

In his early years he was a liberal.
In his middle years he was a liberal.
As a candidate for the Senate he was a liberal
As governor of Massachusetts he was a liberal.

Now, we’re being told he is “severely conservative.”

To believe Romney is a conservative is to lie to oneself. Any self-respecting freeper who supports Romney should at least acknowledge that they are voting for a very liberal candidate.

In my opinion, he’s a 3rd way social corporatist, but no matter what, he’s a very liberal candidate.

Exactly. And the RomneyTroll in question mewled this pathetic crap on it's way out:

" Sadly, this discussion has degenerated to name calling and slurs. I am however, pleased to have exposed the thinness of the skin and lack of rational arguments offered by Paulbots and others of that ilk. I will be moving on to arguments about what is not what might have been. Thanks.

The fact is, the 'degeneration' that occurred was when the troll in question abandoned any pretense of conservative ideals by embracing what Mitt-Witt stands for, which is nothing but expediency and what he thinks will get him elected. No core values. A vacuum where solid principles should reside. As for 'rational arguments', the troll had none to make and was unable to counter what I stated in my original post at #82. The troll accused anyone of "giving a second look" to this abominable appointment of an 0bamaCare loving RINO (Leavitt) as being an "0bama supporter". And while I've never been a fan of Ron Paul, it is amusing that the troll invoked 'PaulBots' as a way of justifying their leaving the thread with their tail tucked between their legs.

This is what we can expect from the sell outs who are trying to portray Romney as a 'conservative' (laugh-chuckle-snort), to which I say "compared to WHO? 0bama? Well, maybe a little. But it's the same argument one might use in asking if Gorbachev was less of a totalitarian than was Andropov. That dog won't hunt.

And your options for November?

Obama or Romney.

==

My state primary was late, so the only viable option [aka, last man standing] was Romney. Gingrich, Paul, Santorum had already dropped out. Ironically, the Dem ticket offered 2 choices, whereas the GOP only had one. Sure, people could have voted for John Doe, but why?

==

Obama or Romney are the choices.

It isn’t much better than Obama or McCain in 2008.

But, that is what you get when you have a two-party system and the two parties are opposite sides of the same coin.

[mkjessup]

0bama or Romney 0bamaLite(c) are the choices.

Fixed that right up for ya. No charge.
