You must realize this, LibFree. Romney has a solid record of appointing liberal justices. He will appoint those with secretive backgrounds and claim they’re constitutionists, but time will prove otherwise.
Obama, on the other hand, will appoint radical liberals. THAT PROSPECT will keep our conservative justices Thomas, Scalio, Kennedy, Roberts, and Alito from even dreaming of retiring.
However, with a Romney on board — supposedly a “republican” — the older justices will be pressured and reassured about retiring by the GOP-e. The liberal republican wing will then get to tip the balance of the court back in the liberal direction.
That is a glaring reason why Romney is worse for the country than is Obama. And Romney showed in Massachusetts he could give a damn about being reelected.
Because I’m willing to go down in flames...........
This is the SAME reason so many conservatives gave for not voting for McCain in 2008. He would nominate liberals to the Supreme Court.
So, let’s take a look at McCain’s record on his votes ON the two liberal justices nominated by Obama, the man you and many others want to re-elect by following the lead of the mainstream media.
Kagan - No.
Sotamayor - No.
What I suspect now is to hear that IF McCain had been elected, he would have nominated justices who received his no votes
If the conservative temper tantum, helped by the mainstream media, had not happened in 2008, would we even HAVE Obamacare?
Let’s take a look at John McCain (the rino) and his vote on that, shall we?
Well, how about that. Another No.
Yes, he was the same as Obama. That’s why he could not be supported by conservatives in 2008, right? While the mainstream media encouraged you to stay home because that awful John McCain was just not conservative enough to earn your vote. It would have been horrible to have McCain (who DOES love his country) and Sarah Palin in the White House, preparing her for the 2016 nomination.
And again...........in 2012, good conservatives are willing to give the election to the mainstream media and Obama.
