I guess I would say just calling him a “liberal democrat” doesn’t necessarily make him a liberal democrat. What policy is he liberal on? Yes, I will give you anthropological global warming and some gay rights, but he has cut taxes repeatedly, signed so many pro-life bills that the Salt Lake City Tribune heavily criticized him for it, has come out against renewing the The Clinton Gun Ban, is for drastically reducing taxes at a national level, has an astounding energy plan, and doesn’t have any old votes to hide from. Is the fact that he worked for this White House as Ambassador to China completely discredit him? If so, would it also preclude General Petraeus?
So, he’s allergic to science and gay is OK, but other than that he’s a rock-ribbed conservative?
Between AGW and marriage equality is the dismantling of Western Civilization as we currently know it.
“He’s good on taxes”, isn’t going to cut it this time.
“What about pro-life?”
See point 1. Most of Western Civilization isn’t reproducing at the replacement rate, but the Islam is practically mestasasizing at a replacement rate of 5.0. It’s ‘pro-life’ for openers in this game.
Stakes are higher now. No more RINOs.
