A reminder for those who are not receiving the message:
Romney is a pathological compulsive liar. Lie after lie papered over with more lies. Doesn’t even flinch when caught in bald faced lies, simply tells another big whopper to cover up or dodge the issue. Funny thing, the man actually seems to believe his own latest lies and simply ignores the glaring record of his past actions/lies. And you have true blue establishment elite RINO Republicans like Karl Rove enabling and backing up his lies. Their motivation is simply to hang on to power (and riches) any way they can.
I’ve stated many times since Romney started running for the presidency way back when that I’d never vote for him and I will not. He cannot lie his way out of his decades long record of support for abortion, Roe v Wade, planned parenthood, gay rights, gun control, global warming, amnesty, liberal judges, big government, compulsory or socialized health care (RomneyCommieCare), mandates, Keynesian economics, support and approval of TARP, bailouts, stimulus packages, i.e, every damn liberal progressive issue that comes down the pike.
C’mon. These are the reasons the tea party sprang up and the reasons he and Rove loathe the tea party and our tea party conservative candidates. Romney famously expressed his loathing for Reagan-Bush conservatism several years ago when he was trying to run to the left of Ted Kennedy and now he’s cloaking himself in Reagan conservatism, knowing full well that it’s a lie, but he knows it’s the only way he can possibly win, er buy the Republican nomination.
Screw Romney!! I absolutely will not support or vote for a proven compulsive liar with a known record of abortion and big government socialism, liberal appointments, etc. He still lies about RomneyCommieCare today. Calls it a “conservative solution.” Get real!!
Listen to what Ronald Reagan had to say about the elites pushing socialism on America via compulsory health insurance:
Ronald Reagan speaks out against RomneyCommieCare
There will be no campaign for this Massachusetts liberal liar on FR!!
Damn the libs and RINOS, full steam ahead!!
But no matter what happens we must turn out in November to vote IN as many conservatives and vote OUT as many rats as possible at all levels of government. If we don't have a conservative at the top of the ticket we must turn out anyway and vote straight conservative DOWN ticket!! Just think of it an off cycle election and pour on the TEA!! It'll be doubly important that we control both houses of congress and as many statehouses as possible.
Restore the 10th amendment!! Impeach the leftist president whoever he may be!! Restore Liberty!! Rebellion comes from the bottom up!!
WOO HOO!! I CAN SEE NOVEMBER FROM MY HOUSE!!
No Bama!! No Romney!! Go tea party rebellion!!
Posting this again DJ... because I'm now convinced many freepers still do not know Romneys record on these significant issues, and that he opposes these as much now as he has in his record. He's only stating "he's changed" because he wants to be President as his next career move...and also pay back for his fathers failure to win when he ran.
It does not matter whether democrats or republicans control whatever branch, because there is little difference between the (so-called) 2 parties. Conservatives need to desert the GOP once and for all, let the liberals own the oncoming collapse, and support a 3rd or 4th party.
Dems & Pubs have had a lock on this system for 150 years+. Their goals are identical. F Romney and F the GOP, throw out *all* incumbents.
Are you talking to me???
Amen. As I said elsewhere, there are worse things than losing elections, or even enduring the encroachment of tyranny. One can lose what no one has the power to take from you, but that which you must willingly give away - your personal honor and integrity.
I will not support the very antithesis of freedom and liberty, no matter what garb it's wearing.
8-10 years ago, though... it was an up and coming conservative site.
Free Republic is a conservative site that promotes conservative principles and values. Romney is not a conservative. So, how is standing for conservative principles by explaining why we are not voting for Romney a detriment to this site?
God bless and Keep you dearest dayglored!
This and Jim’s first thread have been very interesting and jammed packed with venting, passion, emotion, seriousness, some rude and disgusting words, and even some wisdom, patriotism, hope and knowledge thrown in here and there along with uplifting prayers in which I take solace, comfort and inspiration!!
You betcha, Rebellion Is ON with Free Republic leading the way and this primary is NOT over.
Nothing is set in cement.
We fight on -— Newt Gingrich is still in the race, just like he’s said he would all along.
We pray and we never retreat. We reload.
We never know what God has in store for any of us.
God help us save our Republic! We so pray.
but it's just more of the same as
I hope you aren't including me on that list.
I had and still have serious concerns about Newt Gingrich. I had an hourlong conversation with someone today explaining why, despite my concerns, I believe he's the only choice left in the primary. Same thing earlier this week. I hope I've convinced both people, both of whom are well-educated and well-respected professionals who are well-known as evangelical Christians, to back Gingrich.
This is politics, not calling a pastor. Often we don't get perfect candidates in political races, and because most of us can't take our marbles and go move to some other country, we have to try to play with the cards we're dealt.
I can “deal” with Gingrich. I can't play with the losing hand of Romney.
The country is disintegrating because of a lack of principles. You vote out of fear. Socialists and marxists are from the same tree.
Goodnight potty mouth.
Jim Robinson is making perfect sense.
There is nothing about Mitt Romney that a conservative can support and still call themselves a conservative
No. They aren’t. Unless conservatives turn cowardly. And they are.
How do you know? Because he told you he wasn’t pro-abortion? Sorry... I’m not buying it.”
Is he for infanticide? You are so extreme on abortion, that you can’t tolerate someone who was once pro-choice.
“And romney doesn’t? Where is there any evidence that romney has voted against or vetoed a pro-abortion bill? Anything???”
I said infanticide, not abortion. Do you have evidence that Romney voted for infanticide as Obama did in the IL State Senate?
“Forgive me but have you looked at romney’s “jobs” record? Expanding government is NOT being a capitalist and firing thousands of people after hostily talking over their companies is NOT ‘creating jobs.’”
The point is he’s not a socialist like Obama is, and firing people is part of capitalism. Unemployment went down under his tenure as governor. If you think he’d be as bad as Obama, you’re wrong.
“So because ten trillion flies like to eat dung the rest of us should be forced to eat it too? And what about those few individuals in Massachusetts that didn’t want to be forced into a government run healthcare system??? their rights needed to be trampled right? Isn’t that how obomba is doing the nation as a whole? I’m confused. What’s the difference again?”
It’s different, because most people opposed Obamacare, while most people supported Romneycare. There will always be some people who oppose a bill, and Romney doesn’t support doing it at the federal level.
“Romney’s the friggin architect of obombacare. Do you honestly believe romney will try to get it repealed??? You’ve got to be kidding.”
If he wants to be a successful president, but again, I guess you aren’t an Obama critic if you think that Romney will be as bad as Obama, the worst president.
“Really? Got a “vote” he’s made that supports this claim? Outside of his one time support of Ronald Reagan’s attempt to fix the illegal invasion of Mexican nationals and others from Central America Newt has NEVER supported amnesty. In fact he was one of the few that actually worked his butt off to stop Reagan from giving the liberals the benefit of the doubt. As Newt said the democrats lied. How old are you?”
Newt did nothing to fight immigration after the Republicans one in 1994, and he even admits he supports amnesty today. He still voted for amnesty in 1986.
“Most people “were” believers in the whole global warming hoax. Newt no longer is and has spent the last couple of years retracting his prior opinions on that. romney on the other hand is still big on the whole ‘green’ technology hoowey as evidenced in the business dealings he’s involved with and obomba... Well we all know how much he has invested in ‘green technology. Again... No difference between romney and obomba.”
Most conservatives didn’t support green energy, or believe in global warming. Newt altered his book on global warming, and he’s changed his views, because he’s running for president. Romney isn’t great on this issue either.
“As for Raul Ryans medicare reform. I’m against Ryan’s medicare reform. I think all social programs need to be ended and as soon as possible. Give back the money to the taxpayers and let them take care of themselves. Stop justifying big government.”
But that’s not what Newt said. You’re not saying what Newt said, “social engineering from the right or left is wrong.”
“Forget what each says... I will take Newt’s “record” over romney’s any day of the week.”
Newt is done. He has no money, and he can’t get the delegates.
WOW! You really are desperate. Unless you can show that Bush was a PRO HOMO, PRO Baby Killing, anti-traditional marriage, supporting liberal judges and instituted a socialistic form of healthcare - your scenario is bogus!
Besides even bringing up Florida is not wise. The POS Mitt is a lying backstabber and if you think he won't do the same to again, you must think you are special somehow. He hasn't changed and he's a KNOWN lying backstabber as that's his mo. So save your rant, you will need it if he gets the nod. When his etch a sketch comes out.
I would respectfully suggest that you re-examine and rethink your position in this regard.
WOW! Like Jim doesn't know the deal and somehow you do? Like he has to see things your way - the mitt way! The PRO HOMO candidate somehow now turned into a savior!
Newt is STILL in the race and has been in it yet looking at the primary results, it appears voters like EVIL - let them have it. Snubbing a conservative they can now eat cake. They were too involved in believing the hype and lies about Newt from mitt and rick, they missed their opportunity and pissed on America.
And while they twiddle their thumbs in anxiety that can focus on what could have been. And the reminder NEWT is the one who would beat barry, mitt can't and won't. He's too easy to tear apart - way too easy and with no media protection and his debates skills are zero and he has absolutely nothing to debate Barry with.
You can't compare this to what you fear Romney "might" do if he is elected.
You need that to comfort you. Evil doesn't change to do something good. Evil isn't capable of it. And remember you are the one fearing. How anyone can have any faith in a liberal who record proves it and insists he's a republican with no trace of it is beyond me. A PRO HOMO, PRO Abortion, anti-traditional marriage, appointing liberal judges, institutes a socialistic healthcare program, anti gun - tell me, how is that a republican candidate? Is that the GOP platform in any way? You are putting faith in a man who reeks of dishonestly and evil and expect others to do the same.
Romney. McCain. Perry... A rino by any other name is still a rino. NEWT is a viable alternative to Obomba. If you honestly thing romney can beat obomba you're dilusional. Sorry.
"I’d venture to guess that there are very very few Romney supporters on Free Republic.....just people left with NO OTHER option to rid us of Obama."
Newt is the ONLY choice we have at this point that can beat obomba.
"And Jim.....looks like you made your Freepathon 100 times tougher this quarter."
Wow... That sounds like a threat to me. Are you now going to boycott FR because you can't convince it's supporters to support Romney? I think you all tried the same thing with Rush Limbaugh a few weeks ago didn't you?
Looks like you also believe that there is no difference between Romney and Obama.
So are you also going to sit out the election? With mathematical certainty, there is a truth: A vote NOT cast by anyone on our side is a vote FOR Obama.
And if you don’t sit out, who will you vote for? Some unknown, but pure, imaginary conservative? With mathematical certainty, there is a truth: A protest vote cast FOR anyone on our side who has no chance of winning is a vote FOR Obama.
If you think things are bad now, just wait to see what happens if Obama gets another four years. Checkmate. We lose.
Top Romney adviser: Mitt will erase his conservative positions once he’s the nominee
Romney is not now, nor was he ever, a Republican let alone close to being conservative. The sheep are being fooled.
BINGO!
Lets see if they answer 1132. On the other thread, 2 tried but couldn’t even follow directions. They both believed that you CAN vote lib and remain conservative.
If the TEA Party can support Romney, then it no longer has a point.
