And you know this because? Seems to me that Romney came out against all of those things during the campaign.

Again, on the Gay Agenda, YOU were not paying attention:

Tovia Smith of WBUR radio in Boston asked Romney during an October 1994 debate, “Mr. Romney, you say you’re a moderate on social issues, one who will defend abortion rights, equal rights for women, for blacks and for gays -- in fact, you say you will do more to promote gay rights than Senator Kennedy.”

Smith continued, “You also sit on the national Executive Board of the Boy Scouts of America, which has an exclusionary policy banning gay members. Do you support that policy and, if not, have you ever done anything as a board member to oppose it?”

Romney said, “I believe that the Boy Scouts of America does a wonderful service for this country. I support the right of the Boy Scouts of America to decide what it wants to do on that issue. I feel that all people should be allowed to participate in the Boy Scouts regardless of their sexual orientation.”

Romney campaign spokesperson Andrea Saul confirmed the Associated Press on Aug. 5 that Romney maintains the position he took back in 1994.

Well done, SoConP! Afraidfortherepublic, Romney is also ON TAPE stating clearly and unequivocally that he believes if a minor girl gets pregnant and her parents refuse to give their consent to an abortion, that young girl should have "the right" to have a judge override her parents' refusal of consent.

Carl Rove had it wrong when he said "Demography is destiny." No, demography is pretence. MORALITY IS DESTINY. American conservatives are still moral enough to have rejected such an amoral person as Romney, even at the cost of seeing Obama re-elected. Morality is why Romney lost. I love God more than I "hate" Obama. My love for God prevented me from voting for Romney and my understanding of math helped me understand that voting "against" Obama in voting for Romney was a wholesale illusion.
