You've got to be kidding. This event occurred at the convention and was appropriate. We're not talking about the convention. We're talking about over 6 months prior to the convention! That's not appropriate.

The country was not under danger of terrorism on our own soil with a Dem party that doesn't even want to pass the surveillance bill. The country was not in war with Al Queda, with our soldiers in Iraq.

If that had been true then, Reagan would surely have acted sooner. He was a great man for his country first. Mitt has done the right thing.

The country is under real danger of terrorism on our own soil and has an opposition political party that doesn't even want to maintain basic defenses. The country is in a war and our soldiers are in harm's way.

Under those circumstances it would be normal for Republicans to reject a political liberal as their candidate. It would not be normal to support a candidate who defies his own president, defies his own political party, undermines constitutional guarantees, sabotages the rule of law in a effort to pander and refuses to recognize the sovereignty of this nation.
