I am quite done scratching my head over politicians who contend in primaries for name and position and then cave to a socialist to pay off their debt.
They each in their own way made utter fools of all of us and today none will get my vote.
There is only one left with a ground game and machine to take hell fire to the convention and with enough delegates willing to enjoy the fight. What becomes of it remains to be seen, but I respect the Ron Paul brawlers for staying and not running, for standing and not fainting, for long building a ground game tailored for a convention fight with supposed stealth delegates at the ready.
ABR. A convention, not a coronation.
BTW, he is NOT my hero, dim bulb. He is our only chance of removing Barack Hussein Obama Junior from office. Period. Which is probably why 98% of the people here on FR that will vote for him are voting for him. Didn’t like John McCain, either, but he wasn’t BHO, so I voted for him. You sound like you’re more worried about the Republican party and the conservative movement than you are the nation as a whole. Very strange. I didn’t wear the uniform to defend the GOP or some other group, I served for the United States of America and what it means to mankind.
Ted Kennedy beat Romney to a pulp with Bain Capital in their contest for the Massachusetts Senate in 1994. Kennedy used Bain Capital and Romney’s flip-flops on social issues as a 2 pronged attack.
He ended up burying Romney by 17% on election day.
Romney needs a better answer than: I was owner, but I wasn’t involved. Unfortunately, while that might be a true answer, it is not a good answer, because it doesn’t shut down the discussion. I appears on its face to be unbelievable, even if true, that the owner of an operation would have no involvement.
A better answer would be “I turned it over to a blind trust.”
Romney will be hurt badly if anyone can find any kind of Bain decision-making on his part after he says he left.
see #103
Obama is too dangerous. You apparently either are to dumb to see it - or you prefer his kind of destruction.
Like I said - you have two choices: lose two legs and an arm [that’s Obama as president again] or lose two fingers [in no way good either but not nearly as bad - that’s romney.]
With both legs and 8 fingers, I can expect to continue fighting. But, not so if Obama gets in. Then it will be too late.
Like I said, you’re an idiot or an obot... but I repeat myself.
IIRC maggie or starwise found the information that would explain this way back last winter. when he left to run the Olympic he stepped down as Ceo but retained in interest in the CO. According to tax records he is still making money from his investments.
WOW!!!!
More questions in ONE interview about 3 years at bain (WHO CARES?!?!) than the entire media has asked in the last 6 years of Obama concering Ayers, Wright and his drug use in “Dreams of my Father” combined.
Anybody notice that? Obama’s whole life offlimits yet the media doing the Obama campaigns dirty work here picking at nits. Amazing!
It kind of did go that way. Romney just had to repeat the point 5 times. He held his own and I liked this slamdown of Obama...
“But you’d like for him to apologize?
GOV. ROMNEY: Jan, I’ve told you all I’ve got to say about that. I think that the president has demeaned the leadership which he should be bringing to this country. “
Despite Roberts deciding that a mandate is a tax, I do not believe that a state can violate my right to pursue happiness as I see it. A state can no more play big brother with me and tell me I am hereby ordered to buy broccoli than can the fed.
That is not a state power.
10th amendment actually says: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people”
Notice the: OR TO THE PEOPLE.
In fact, the 9th says: “The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.”
And finally the 5th says that I can’t be deprived of liberty without due process of law. They would be required to take me to court to prove I had committed some crime is what “due process of law” means.
Yes, that is incredible. In fact, somewhere today I saw a piece where the presidential spokesman, whasisname, tried to pretend that a question about Obama’s school records was the same as asking for his birth certificate.
Pretty much what i said more than a week ago ~ no blind trust ~ no trust ~ i’m not blind yet.
Just go vote for BO, Diogenesis. Dio’s disingenuousness is to cover the fact that he won’t support Romney becasue he is a mormon. isn’t that right Dio?
Dio and his band of religious bigots on FR would prefer 4 more years of BO than having a mormon elected president. i think they are worried Romney might make them wear a mormon’s special underwear if elected. do you think they own stock in fruit of the loom and might lose money on their investment?
God save America from 4 more years of BO.
“If you want to be President you’ve got to have clean hands.”
and just how clean are BO’s hands, your alternate candidate?
God save America from 4 more years of BO.
Tennessee Nana
why don’t you and the rest of your religious bigots here on FR admit to the rest of us the real reason you bring up all this stuff about Romney is because of your hatred and fear of mormonism? why don’t you go over and spread the truth as you preach it on some democratic website.
God save America from 4 more years of BO.
Wow, they really are desperate.
I don’t know whom I dislike the most; Barack Obama or Diogenesis. Ignore Diogenesis!!!
OK
that’s beautiful!
