“God I cannot believe I am on FR trying to convince people that voting for principled leaders is good and that electing libs is bad”.
I’m giving you credit for your being a 98er, but you have no idea how ignorant your comment sounds to me. Mitt Romney was one of the most principled men running and unfortunately you nor I will ever know how he would have governed. Frankly I had very few questions regarding how Mr Romney would have governed, and I knew exactly how the other one would back when he was an Illinois State Senator.
“His record is a mirror of Obamas. Pro gay, pro Abortion, Anti gun control freak”. Total emotional crap based on what you may have been reading right on this very site.
Your choosing to ignore other principles completely opposite has me thinking you have been emotionally dragged into the fray.
Regardless of everything you mentioned above about Romney, it is the Congress that would have faced those issues, NOT Mr Romney, and as you and I hopefully both agree it is the Congress by and large that is the problem with government. They are abdicating their duty to keep the Executive and Judicial branches of Government in check and it isn’t all of them, just enough to make it seem like “they” are all against us.
As to your name ten comment, I would say 40% of the House Republicans could be counted on to vote right much of the time and the Senate pretty close to the same number. In both houses of Congress that is not a majority, but it is close. It may be all one can expect when you try to elect someone with principles from the North east or the West coast. Nearly impossible. Government is what it is and the voters are in charge. So you win a few and lose a few, and don’t throw the baby out with the bath water to use an overused statement.
Are you remotely serious or as Ashton going to jump out and tell me I got punked?
Principled? The man that has cartoons in his honor showing him talking out of both sides of a dozen mouths? the guy that gave his own money to planned barrenhood? the guy that said he’d be better than Ted Kennedy for the homos? thee guy that had illegals working at his house?
I gotta tell you. I have seen some over the top outright lies about this guy but PRINCIPLED??
Really?
This is a joke right? Because if you are serious you are barking moonbat insane. The guy is a principled liberal in that he adopted the principles of liberalism. All of them.
He didn’t miss one I’m aware of. And please tell me that 40 percent number has some data to back it up. I know it doesn’t of course since we see Obama’s unchecked spending and power grabs daily.
Just amazing what people call conservative around here lately.
Maybe you should interest yourself with a little history of how he governed in Massachusetts, should make you puke.
