All I have ever said is that we are down to two choices in this Election, The Republican or the Communist.
Don't Vote for the Republican, you get the Communist. Don't bother Voting and convince others to do the same and you end up with every last down Ticket Republican getting decimated.
Obama, Pelosi and Reid will thank us for our lack of participation. I Voted for Newt and he lost. That is why we have Primaries. Republican Primary Voters picked Romney without any support from any FReeper I am aware of.
Everyone is still acting like we are at the beginning of the Primary Season. It's over. Don't attack the messenger. There is no Third Party Candidate, Write In Candidate or hope that another Republican Nominee will be chosen at the Convention. Reality is a bitch.
As far as your last point, I and others here believe we have a chance of influencing a RINO Republican President as we did with Bush. Not all the time, but a chance none the less.
You have no chance influencing Obama who thinks of us like we are his worst enemy. He will continue to do everything he can do to grind Conservatism into the ground. If you think Romney has the same mission in life, there is no point continuing the discussion. That is flat out ridiculous.
As I have said before, do what you think is right, but I assure you there are no Romney lovers here. Attacking your fellow FReepers for wanting Obama out accomplishes nothing.
Heated rhetoric and angry flying fingers on a keyboard are not changing any minds. Come November, what will be will be. We will still be here pontificating “what if” no matter the Election results.
Rhetoric?
You have no chance influencing Obama who thinks of us like we are his worst enemy.
THAT, my FRiend, is rhetoric.
If Obama faces a Republican/conservative dominated Congress where its own Republican moderates have seen "moderate" soundly rejected, Obama would be "influenced" no matter what he thinks of us.
Romney, on the otherhand, would have the support of moderates AND Democrats. Romney would make conservatives the minority. Evidence is very strong that Romney holds conservatives in the same contempt Obama does.
Well, even if we can’t agree on candidates, we can agree to unite after the election and find some common purposes. I don’t see any one election as determining our final destinies.
God has a role in all this, too.
If Romney Cheerleader produces no self-recognition, then how about Romney pimp???? We used to have numerous Romney enthusiasts on FR but management's righteous lightning zapped down from the sky and ZOT! they were gone and are no longer among us.
Then Myth, the leftist pig in the elephant suit bought, bullied and lied his way to the GOP nomination and that MAY have bought him and his enthusiasts in denial unwarranted respite here until November. No one REALLY likes Myth or even has any use for him but, gosh, he is not Obozo and that justifies supporting such a leftist pig as Romney.
Reality IS a bitch and hopefully the election results will illustrate that for you and other friends of Myth once and for all and we will NEVER have this fiasco repeated. The GOP is now occupied territory but, hey, what do you and those like you care so long as it is only occupied by Obozo think-alikes and not Obozo himself. On issues that matter (NOT Muffy's trust fund), there is no meaningful difference. Romney is understandably (given his and his father's track records) not eager to give us specifics as to ANYTHING in policy. Nixon's secret plan for Vietnam seems to be the model. Romney has secret plans for everything and, given his track record, understandably so. As Nancy Pelosi might say, you have to elect Myth to see what his plans are.
I am not trying to influence your vote or that of anyone else pimping Romney. I just want you and them out there fully admitting your and their perfidy and trying to justify it. I make good popcorn and its just yummy with lots of butter as I witness the delusional farce of people hallucinating that there is a GOP nominee.
GOP voters did not "pick" Romney. He used corrupt Wall Street anonymous mountains of money (obtained by Lucifer only knows what promises) to bully and buy his way to primary victories by relentless lies, slanders and libels against every decent GOP candidate. Not ONE positive word about himself or his policy plans. You want to reward that??? I don't and I won't.
The Roman Catholic Church to which I belong describes material cooperation with abortion (even one abortion much less the 55 million or so to date under"color of law") results in automatic (latae sententiae) excommunication from the Church. My soul is not for sale. I would not sell it for Ronald Reagan and Myth Romney is NO Ronald Reagan. Then there is the little matter of Myth persecuting my Church and every other pro-life church by requiring them to fund abortion, IUDs, and other mortal sins. OK, Catholic Bishops (and other leaders of other pro-life churches), what will it be. Life in jail or eternal life in hell??? Swell candidate you have there. On this issue, he and Obozo are twins and Obozo may be a smidgeon better not that it matters.
Romney = Obozo = Moloch = Obozo = Romney, etc. They have he same mission except as to Muffy's trust fund.
I will certainly do what I want. I want Obozo out. I want Romney NOT EVER to be in. One will blessedly be defeated in November. That will be the first national progress of 2012. Then we can all (to the extent that there is a we) concentrate on politically destroying the survivor. One way or another I get to celebrate that half of the job is done on election day. How about you? Obozo is easier to destroy because the GOP will be united against him. The usual gang of "GOP" quislings would rubber stamp Romney's policies if he proposed death camps or if he "reached across the aisle" and named Harry Reid to SCOTUS. If Pelosi is a lawyer, please don't tell Myth.
You can vote third party for POTUS or not for any candidate for POTUS and still vote (as allowed by law) for any candidate of your choice for other offices. BTW, decimate was the disciplinary practice of the Roman legions in their salad days of killing one out of every ten surviving soldiers at random after a defeat. If I can name the GOP-E soldiers to be decimated, hey, it sounds like a plan: Lindsay Graham, Susan Collins, Bob Corker, Lamar!!! Alexander, John Cornyn, Saxby Chambliss, John Isakson, Mark Nancyboy Kirk, Mitch McConnell, Eric Cantor, John Boehner, Kevin McCarthy, etc., just for starters.
Dubya is a genuine Christian who needed no influence to oppose baby-killing and rump-ranging. On foreign policy, he was a man's man who refuse to employ his Daddy's circle of foreign policy quislings except perhaps Colin Powell who left on his own to Bush's great relief.
If you influenced Dubya not to approve TARP, we did not notice any results reflecting that. Likewise, No Child Left Behind. He named John Roberts as Chief Justice and Sam Alito to SCOTUS after that hiccup with Harriet Miers. Dubya is averse to controversy. He pulled Miers. Don't expect to get that lucky when Myth as POTUS names a Swish Souter behave alike.
You did not influence Dubya and you certainly won't influence Myth, the GOP antichrist. (That is not a crack about Mormonism whose adherents I generally respect as pro-life and pro-family. Too bad Myth is not a better Mormon).
In their combined fifty years in public life, name three things that George or Myth Romney EVER did FOR conservatism. Crickets!!!
Romney AND Obozo have THE SAME MISSION IN LIFE. Que sera, sera! Whatever will be will be. RESIST to their faces!
Good grief. Sounds like Hope & Change to me.
1) Bush gave the liberals nearly everything they wanted, as president.
2) He DIDN'T have a prior record as Governor that was more liberal than most Democrats.
Mitt's record proves beyond question where his real loyalties lie, and they're NOT with you or I. He comes to this thing as a virtual Democrat, and you expect him to be swayed by the right? Hope & Change, baby.
