Oh, Myth Romney, how do I loathe you! Let me count the ways. (in no particular order)
10. TAXES: As the Governor of Massachusetts, you raised "fees" (taxes) by nearly $730 million. In fact, at a 2008 presidential debate, you said that it's appropriate for governments to charge fees and provide services. And, in 2007, at a campaign event in Iowa, you called flat taxes "unfair." (OnTheIssues.org/NewsMax)
9. HOMOSEXUAL AGENDA: In 1994, you favored allowing unabashed homosexuals to openly serve in the U.S. armed forces. You also favored allowing homosexuals to participate in the Boy Scouts, and you were endorsed by the Log Cabin Republicans. (OnTheIssues.org)
8. CLIMATE CHANGE: In 2008, you told CNN's Wolf Blitzer that "there’s nothing wrong with dealing with global warming." Of course, it's okay with you as long as it's done on a "global" scale. Oh, and in 2004, as Governor of Massachusetts, you introduced the Massachusetts Climate Protection Plan, a package of policies that acknowledged the existence of anthropogenic global warming. (John McCain for President via FR/OnTheIssues.org/The Boston Globe, 2004-05-07)
7. SECOND AMENDMENT: In 1994, you favored strong gun control laws. In 2009, however, somehow you managed to convince the NRA to let you address their annual conference. (OnTheIssues.org/KSWT CBS 13 Yuma, Ariz. via FR)
6. RIGHT TO LIFE: In 2002, during your campaign for Governor of Massachusetts, you pledged to “preserve and protect” a woman’s right to choose (abortion). Now, you claim to be staunchly pro-life. (Scripps via FR/OnTheIssues.org)
5. IMMIGRATION/AMNESTY: In April 2009, you said that the Republican Party needs to pass "immigration reform" (amnesty) in order to attract new voters. In a 2005 interview with The Boston Globe, you described the McCain-Kennedy "comprehensive immigration reform" bill as "reasonable." In 2007, you told The San Franciso Chronicle that illegal aliens needed to register with the government so that some could return home while others received legal status. (The Miami Herald via FR/OnTheIssues.org/The San Francisco Chronicle via FR)
4. MORE GOVERNMENT REGULATION: In April 2009, you told The Hill newspaper that: "We as Republicans misspeak when we say we don’t like regulation. We like modern, up-to-date dynamic regulation that is regularly reviewed, streamlined, modernized and effective." (The Hill via FR)
3. SOCIALIST ECONOMIC STIMULUS & FINANCIAL SERVICES BAILOUT: In January 2009, while Obama, Pelosi, and Reid were offering the now infamous Porkulus Maximus, you offered a smaller $250 million stimulus proposal. [McCain offered a slightly larger proposal of nearly $450 million.] Nonetheless, government intervention in the economy is decidedly contradictory to the conservative principles of small, limited, Constitutional government. Also, in September 2008, you told Michigan residents at an event there that the financial services bailout was absolutely necessary. (The New York Times/The Detroit Free Press)
2. OBAMACARE = ROMNEYCARE: your signature government-run health care is a dismal failure. Nonetheless, in May 2009, you cited it as one of your "best ideas," praised it in July 2009, and in May 2009 said that "the best path to healthcare reform is to let the American people make their own decisions, not have those decisions forced on them by government." [Never mind that Romney Care forced decisions on individuals residing in Massachusetts.] Oh, and your health care plan formed the basis for Obama's Socialist health care "reform." (The Daily News Record via FR/CATO/The Salt Lake Tribune via FR/The Boston Globe via FR/Fox News via FR/The Boston Globe via FR)
1. Jim Robinson refuses to support you. (FR)
In other words, Mr. Romney, you are a two-bit, flip-flopping, lying, Hispandering, Socialist-loving, globalist son of a (*$#%@. You are a RINO, a Socialist, and a traitor to these United States. Oh, and you praised Obama (CNN via FR) and attacked Palin (Politico via FR) at least once.
You suck. You shill for Obama. You're a younger, slicker, craftier, Mormon Juan McCain. You are too cuddly with the real RINO Juan McCain. Figures. RINOs of a feather flock together...in Rinonia!
Oh, and by the way, as you go down in flames in the 2012 GOP primaries, do us all a favor and take both of the McCains, Giuliani, Huckabee, Grahamnesty, and the rest of the %$(&%@@# anti-American RINOs with you.
It’s coming, after I finish the master ping list reference sheet and what’s left of my senior thesis, so I can finally graduate.
Mitt will never overcome the vicious religious bigotry some so-called christian Conservatives seem to display.
For many, it was a killer right out of the gate.
Mitt seems to have survived and IIRC, is now richer than ever...
Perhaps he will take up something more suitable. Like EOD training or maybe even buy a spot on the next ISS mission, he should enjoy the view from there.
But you are correct, he will never be POTUS.
Hold on pal...”Hispanic pandering” is a term that is missused waaay too often.
The Mexican vote is what should be used. Most Latins would rather vote for a conservative.
Here in Florida Marcos Rubio has a huge conservative base and he has earned respect across the state due to his stand on issues.
Milk and cookies? I gotta go to bed.
Post that again, later. Maybe every 3 months. Others need to see it.
Forty-six minutes and twenty-nine seconds. Give or take. This thread pissed me off.
You ain’t seen nothin’ yet, FRiend!
Well said.....these so-called Christians that constantly attack him simply due to his religous beliefs use the same mentality as Obama followers.
This image says it all!
I saw that thread too. A Romney nomination would be a disaster as it would mean 4 more years of Hussein.
Hussein leaves office in 1296 days. I'd like to keep it that way.
LOL< I was just kidding. Can’t stand Romney either.
These guys think they’re on home makeover or something. A little spackle here, a little new paint there...
Aha, it’s ready to put back on the market folks.
Well, no it isn’t.
Can’t sell a lemon to me. Nope no way...
Have a good one. Good luck with your thesis.
Thanks :-)
Just paint it green and call it a lime, eh? LOL.
Either way rinos pander, and its annoying. I have never understood why they can’t simply educate all people about what they stand for, rather than treat some people like children.
Oh hey, I might buy that. Heh heh heh...
Don’t. Oh, and stay away from the unusually tarty, misshapen oranges. They’re lemons too.
The dude thinks that Mitt blows.
So do I.
What would that have to do with "foreign interests"?
RINO “lemons,” that is.
So true! So true! :-)
