In Case You Don't Like Romney... A Challenge To Every FReeper

In Case You Don't Like Romney...
Columnist Andrew McCarthy gives us what probably is the most important question regarding the upcoming presidential election
If Romney wins the nomination, as seems very likely, I will enthusiastically support his candidacy. For my friends who may have hesitation on that score, Id just ask you to keep four things in mind:
1.. Justice Scalia just turned 78
2.. Justice Kennedy will turn 78 later this year
3.. Justice Breyer will be 76 in August
4.. Justice Ginsburg turned 81 about a week ago and has had cancer twice.
Whoever we elect as president in November is almost certainly going to choose at least one and maybe more new members of the Supreme Court in addition to hundreds of other life-tenured federal judges, all of whom will be making momentous decisions about our lives for decades to come.
If you dont think it matters whether the guy making those calls is Mitt Romney or Barack Obama, I think youre smokin something funky
.
So for anybody who is thinking of not voting because your favorite didnt get nominated, or writing in a candidate who can't win ... just imagine this possibility:
'SUPREME COURT JUSTICE ERIC HOLDER'
Did that get your attention!

(Myth Romney) ... can be manipulated if we are willing to be the ones to shake his Etch-a-Sketch.
I sense your genuine sincerity in making that statement ...
However ... it will be WE who "are now" and "will be" MANIPULATED like MONKEYS at the ZOO ...
by the Lying, Despicable ...
"Celestial God-Child from Planet Kolob" ...
How much "mercy" did Myth Romney extend to Sarah and Todd Palin and their CHILDREN ...
as Myth's GOONS savagely attacked them for YEARS ?
"Zero" ... as it approaches negative infinity ...
We Christian Conservatives can expect WORSE than Sarah Palin did from Myth's "mercy" ...
And "all" can REST ASSURED that Free Republic has "already" been TARGETED by Mittens ...
to be destroyed "without quarter" ...

Never mind that all those ages are incorrect. They’ll be those ages by the time President Romney *leaves* office.

Why should we convince you? If you can't see the destruction this scumbag and his minions have done, then you're hopeless and a waste of time
There are 2 choices come November, for any and all RePubs and conservatives
Vote Against Obama or vote For Romney... Whatever makes you feel better... A vote from neither is withholding a conservative vote against Obama, and the Muslim Kenyan Marxist thanks you

It looks like Virgil Goode will be on our ballot in Wisconsin. So, I have an easy choice in November, and I am at peace. My point was, don't buy into the whole "choose Romney or Obama" meme. I refuse to choose from two cups of poison. There are several closed minds on FR that insist we pick either Obama or Romney. And that refusing to pick one of them means we have picked the other.

We must be rabid realists! [...] We had a Republican Congress and Senate from 1994 to 2006.Look at you, all preachin' to the choir and such... LOL!
I have largely ceased to participate in these conversations, because I have come to consider them a waste of time - As long as the majority are Republican fanbois and fearmongers, I do not believe there will be a chance for the amount of resolve it takes to envision and implement true change...
I will state again that the problem is not liberalism itself, which has been proven over and over to be an intellectual lie... The problem is that there is no opposition to liberalism, and that, my FRiend, is what should be happening here, if not in the Republican Party.
Romney is not such opposition, and neither McCain, nor Bush(es). Look at where it has brought us.
And you may note, I said Conservative Senate above, not Republican. ; )

Yes you did say Conservative. I noticed it.
You’re right on target here too.
Just remember, that newbies read these threads too. What you know, many of them don’t.
I restate the obvious, because it’s important that we do.

I agree. Why anyone thinks Romney would appoint a conservative is beyond me. And I mean no insult.

Good luck with that. Whatever he says Tuesday, he will change his mind by Thursday. You cannot believe anything he says. He has no convictions ...not any he cannot change in an hour’s time.

And yet the fact remains, Jemian’s vote is hers to cast however she feels is right. She is an amazingly smart and intelligent woman who has the courage of her convictions. All who know her respect her and would defend her right to vote however she pleases.
