Are you all really that CLUELESS?

Romney has been attacking Gov. Palin for weeks
through his RomneyBOTs and BelmontServants.

The ONLY day of the week Romney has not stabbed the GOP is
one whose name does not have a “Y” in it.

I am not one who wishes him, or any of our moderates, ill.

I think it obvious Romney is not helping himself.

We disagree. Time will tell.

He just plays one on TV.

No, Mitt, he IS a socialist for all practical purposes.

Let’s hope he doesn’t get a chance to practice his purpose.

I’m really, really disappointed in you, lj. You’re more honest than that.

Unlike Dictator, Self-Entitled, Venal, Backstabbing,
Shape-shifting Socialist Mr. Romney,
Gov. Palin has a good looking family AND exudes good judgment.

No one the haughty, covetous Romney sent his minions to destroy her.

I’m sorry you’re disappointed, TAdams becuase I value your viewpoint. Perhaps my comment was too biting...I just always felt creepy about Romney; the other thing is I am just tired of Republicans not calling a spade a spade and being Mr. Nice Guy. When the leftists are fighting dirty, using every commie trick in the book, breaking every law they don’t like.

I know someone who has trained in martial arts for years and he says that competitions and sparring have very little in common with actual street fighting. Not that Republicans should go to the same level as the leftists. But they gotta show some fighting spirit! And no more Mr. Milquetoast.

There are dozens of other statements Mitt has made that I could quote for you, some that are even more pungent and more pithy like you prefer them. However, I don't want to waste the time for either of us.

I do specifically remember a time, though, when Mitt described Hillary's policies as akin to Karl Marx's. He didn't call her a Marxist, but he said her policies were similar.

I submit there is a good time for all of that kind of talk --- during the primaries.

Mitt's job, his role, as given to him by McCain/RNC, is to attract the undecideds to vote for us in the swing states. In that regard, Mitt has done an excellent job explaining to regular people how McCain's policies will be better for them and how Obama's policies will hurt our country.

>>>But then again, Romney and his minions probably don't think the United Order was Socialistic.

You should check your Bible before you criticize the LDS church for practices that are found in the Bible. The united order is based on the Biblical law of having "all things in common" as practiced by the early Christian saints. It is nor "socialist" or "Communist" just as biblical tithes or offerings for the poor are not socialist. The believers laid their posessions at the feet of the Apostles who distributed them. It was a freewill offering based on the love of Christ and his Unity. Socialism and Communism are the forced taking of property by government. If we followed your logic any donation, offering or tithing to a church for the needy would be considered socialism. The practice of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is based on Biblical precedant.

http://bible.cc/acts/4-32.htm Acts 2:44 All who believed were together and had all things in common; 45they would sell their possessions and goods and distribute the proceeds to all, as any had need.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary... In effect, they had all things common; for there was not any among them who lacked, care was taken for their supply. The money was laid at the apostles' feet. Great care ought to be taken in the distribution of public charity, that it be given to such as have need, such as are not able to procure a maintenance for themselves; those who are reduced to want for well-doing, and for the testimony of a good conscience, ought to be provided for. Here is one in particular mentioned, remarkable for this generous charity; it was Barnabas. As one designed to be a preacher of the gospel, he disentangled himself from the affairs of this life. When such dispositions prevail, and are exercised according to the circumstances of the times, the testimony will have very great power upon others.

Mitt "I-am-Entitled-to-The-Presidency" Romney ... "appearing on all of the morning talk shows, also said both candidates are “terrific men”.

Is not that special? Is that really a surprise (NOT).
Romney says the O-bomber is "terrific" on the final day of the campaign.

We are all tired of the Republicans not calling a spade a spade, but some of us are just as frustrated with the double standard. Even though McCain and Palin also refused to call Obama a socialist, only Romney gets a thread posted with hateful comments galore at a time when we should be united and appreciative of all the time and effort he’s spending in many of the swing states in which he was the primary winner in an attempt to assist us in winning those crucial states.

I can sure as heck say I wouldn’t have donated any money or spent time making GOTV calls like I did today if Romney was on the ticket.

Try the truth.


Mitt Romney on Hillary:
"Hillary Clinton is very much right, it does take a village, and we are a village
and we need to work together in a non-skeptical, non-finger-pointing way...
"
("For City Problems, Future Solutions," The Boston Globe, 3/1/98)

I forgot to add that I am sure they’d both make wonderful presidents and I’d vote for either one of them. The problem will be getting the dems and indies to vote for them. It’s clear we need some of them to win the presidency.

Hillary and Kerry on Romney's fascist socialist
scheme he imposed without a vote (except his).

Sen. John Kerry to Don Imus on RomneyCARE=HillaryCARE: "I like this health care bill".

Sen. Hillary Clinton on RomneyCARE=HillaryCARE: "To come up with a bipartisan plan in this polarized environment is commendable."

There’s a difference between acting like a statesman and committing an ommission by not calling Obama a socialist, and it’s another thing to say “he’s not a socialist, he’s just following the lead of EU” (they’re socialists!) and also saying that Obama is “terrific”! I mean! Obama is not terrific, he’s a horrible, evil lying racist marxist person who, AFAIAC, is practically demoniac!

I hope you’re right. If Obama is elected, we may not have an election in 2012.
