Feel free to run with your tail between your legs. That is understandable given your "proud" track record in the voting booth and your advocacy of trash like Romney.
You want serious discussion? Then stop treating elections and politics as Red Team vs, Blue team. Romney INVENTED Obozocare as Romneycare and sent his "experts" to help Obozo craft that disaster.
Romney, after the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court handed down a ridiculous decision claiming that the relationships between two (so far) perverted same sex "partners" (both human so far) was somehow a constitutional "right" under a state constitution crafted by John Adams (who probably never imagined such a thing?), yes that Romney, summarily and eagerly ordered all town clerks to offer "marriage""license" applications to Bruce and Larry or Bertha and Gertrude or face Romney's army of gummint lawyers in court. Never mind that the Supreme Judicial Court made no orders to that effect but seemed to be functioning in their collective capacity as social revolutionary philosophers and anticultural "leaders" at large. And what about the "rights" of, ummm, dog lovers and polygamists and those who want to solemnize sexual relations with space aliens and those other Demonrats?
Even Obozo never organized a "business" to facilitate the grisly "work" of the abortion mills by disposing of the little corpses as trash or "medical waste" but Romney did. Romney is also at least as much of a liar as Obozo particularly on the abortion issue.
Romney's mother ran as a pro-abort candidate for US Senate BEFORE Roe vs. Wade. Romney's father, as Nixon's HUD Secretary wanted to deny mortgages to whites fleeing the crime and riots in the inner cities but encourage such mortgages for blacks fleeing those same cities for the suburbs. When Nixon heard of that scheme, he promptly fired George Romney. Ted Kennedy was probably more conservative than anything named Romney.
Only a Republican candidate can bring such discredit upon the GOP as to totally ruin it as a political vehicle. IF Romney had been elected that would have been the end of the GOP. Romney BOUGHT the nomination with an ocean of Wall Street and K Street $$$$$$ against a weak field. The only excuse for any conservative to vote for Romney was the brainless mantra that he was not Obozo. A serious look a Romney's record would have easily proven that he was worse.
Imagine Romney appointing SCOTUS justices and federal appellate and trial judges. Look at his track record as governor and the vile menagerie of leftists and social revolutionaries he inflicted on the Massachusetts courts. The GOP is a monarchist party. If Romney were POTUS, they would, with a few noble exceptions, approve his nominations. The Demonrats would also approve them since the nominations would be easily recognizable as participants in the ongoing effort to eliminate the vestiges of Western Civilization (i. e. natural law morality) in our country. If Obozo does the nominating, then GOP senators can grow backbones and resist or face primary opponents who will remove them from public life and keep them from further embarrassing conservatives by their political heresy and cowardice.
Romney would have dug his heels in with the power of the presidency against any effort to purge from the Senate "GOP" ranks such business marionettes as Bob Corker, LAMAR!!! Alexander, Thad Cockroach, Lisa Murkowski, Mark Nancy Boy Kirk, Mitch McConnell, John Cornyn, Robert Portman, John McCain, and Jeff Flake just to name ten who deserve to be purged.
With Romney having lost (thanks be to God), we now have candidates for POTUS in a GOP field including Ted Cruz, Scott Walker, Marco Rubio (OK, he was wrong on immigration), Rand Paul, Ben Carson, Carly Fiorina and other quality candidates actually reflective of the GOP base and each fully qualified to piss on Romney's grave.
You confess voting for Romney and you have the temporary nerve to accuse me of being unworthy and unhinged? On a politically CONSERVATIVE website??? Well, if my arguments are unworthy and unhinged, you should be able to bat them away easily. You are not up to that challenge. So you run away. I have never noticed your track record here and it seems that noticing was unnecessary. Get thee to DU or HuffPo where you belong. Run, run, as fast as you can, they can't catch LS. He's the gingerbread man!
If the future of the GOP is to serve as lapdog to the US Chambers of Crony Commerce and Planned Barrenhood, then the GOP has NO FUTURE.
I believe you closed the case rather superbly on the theme of voting as a robot Republican.
I can vote for someone pretty lame, if he or she can just manage to cough up a lifetime of their history showing support for Life issues, anti-abortion and euthanasia, and pro-traditional marriage, and for normal male and female status candidates. I can’t vote for anyone without those virtues, however.
Romney could never cut it. He was thought to be pretty, and definitely wealthy, also smooth, sort of debonair and
with the bearing of a governor. And, yet, he was nearly demonic for what he produced in his thought labs, in Massachusetts, and then forced down the throats of decent thinking people, and Church institutions there. Who the hell votes *for* that stuff and sleeps at night?
So, back to the point. Virtues matter. It’s all we have to count on, in others and in ourselves as well.
Thanks for the ping! :^)
GREAT post! As usual.
