And yet Romney's record declares him NOT to be a lover of my America, but a lover of the America cherished by the left-wing.
Which in my book, makes him not much better than Obama:
Romney's record:
One needs to go no further than your point #1 to find a deliberate lie, that Romeny created gay marriage in Massachusetts.
Here are the facts:
Same-sex marriage in Massachusetts began on May 17, 2004, as a result of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts ruling in Goodridge v. Department of Public Health that it was unconstitutional under the Massachusetts constitution to allow only heterosexual couples to marry. Romney had nothing to do with that and fought it.
In fact, Romney launched the “superslate” campaign in 2004, based on the idea that the state Republican Party could use Conservative ideals and family values as a wedge issue and gain seats, spending millions of Romney's own dollars and personally campaigning for Republican candidates in traditionally Democratic seats. Despite his efforts, the Republican party lost three seats in the 2004 election. Since then, many legislators have changed their views to reflect growing support for same-sex marriage among their constituents.
Romney promoted a Constitutional amendment to prohibit same sex marriage, but the state legislators failed to back him up on it. One of the original sponsors of the amendment to ban same-sex marriage and legalize civil unions, Brian Lees, said, “Gay marriage has begun, and life has not changed for the citizens of the commonwealth, with the exception of those who can now marry.
He spent millions of his own money fighting it. What did you do, except lie about it?
PS, Sarah Palin, you remember her, she endorsed Romeny too!
Of course, she’s just a RINO, right?
