where is your specific proof that Romney proposed the boy scouts hire gay scout masters?
What specifics do Hillary and Romney’s health plans have in common?
I check the facts, not a snipped of an out of context statement from 15 years ago.
I read the Heritage Foundation analysis outlining the specifics of Romney’s health care plan, ... not some knee jerk opposition because it has the word “mandate” in there.
Lots of mandates are tolerated by you and me every day. Mandated auto insurance. Mandated income tax. Mandated home insurance for GNMA mortgage loans, and freddie mac home loans.
Mandated beach tags at the shore. Mandated vaccinations to send your kids to public school.
No one is saying that mandates are fabulously great. But the fact remains that conservative politicians, from Duncan Hunter to Rick Santorum to Ronald Reagan, proposed and tolerated a myriad of government mandates.
Should there be as few as possible? Certainly.
Yet you have this hatred for Romney so bad that you see him as the ONLY one who has ever implemented a mandate.
It’s insane the things you ignore, yet want to blame Romney for every evil under the sun.
You are obsessed with blaming him for doing the same things as other conservatives.
Methinks its more than just policy which make you so hate the man.
You seem to have placed all your trust in one analyst at the Heritage Foundation (who will likely be made fun of very soon by conservatives).
Take a look at what Human Events had to say:

Romney’s healthcare plan is socialistic (and you shouldn’t need “authorities” to tell you that).
