Except for his unfortunate go along to get along support of TARP, bailouts, stimulus spending and the increased credit limit, etc, Ryan is a pretty good choice. Probably the best choice of the RINOS that were on Romney's short list. I support Ryan for the vice presidency. Wish he were at the top of the ticket, though.
But I still cannot and will not support the grand father of ObamaCare. Romney still loves and brags about his bastard brainchild, RomneyCare, even today when he knows what an anti-liberty socialist POS it is.
And the fact that he advocated that abortion should be safe and legal in America for over three decades of his adult lifetime and even advocated that Roe v Wade should be supported and sustained as settled law precludes any consideration whatsoever by this pro-life Christian for Myth Romney for the presidency.
And the fact that he boasted that he would be better for "gay rights" than Ted Kennedy, and proved it just increases my resistance.
That, and his penchant for gun control, his continuing support for global warming, gays in the scouts, gays in the military, and his record of appointing liberal judges makes it all but impossible for me to support him.
Lastly, we're having a bit of changeover on our moderator staff. At least two moderators resigned this afternoon after I flatly refused to rein in a so-called anti-Mormon "bigot" on FR. Well, if being in opposition to false prophets and false prophecy makes a Christian believer a bigot, then I guess I'm a bigot. I've posted before that I flat do not believe that the Book of Mormon is the true word of God. Nor do I believe that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God. The Christian bible warns us to be weary of false prophets and that I am. Romney being the presumptive Republican nominee does not change that fact.
I have no hope of keeping up with you.
It’s not a race. Honest. ;)
I submit a motion that it would be of benefit to FR if the entire idiot thread just disappeared. To The Ozone. IMHO.
***That won’t happen if you bump the thread.
The problem with this thread is that last paragraph in the article. I consider it to have been a mistake on JimRob’s part to include it. It should have had its own article in the religion section. Very few of us would have noticed it, in particular those who’ve gotten their gander up about supposed anti-mormon bigotry. And the comments would have been more subject to moderation.
But we can’t quite move it all over there.
As a servant of the cross, do you uphold the deity of Christ? Do you think Jesus was God - Jehovah? It is the denial of this very basic tenet which drives jimrob’s detractors on this thread.
My sympathies, if you somehow felt singled out.
- When you corner a Liberal, they quickly change topics...
Romney is a closed book to the public and republican voters, a person that seems to have emerged fully grown, with almost no past or political history, to run for president as a “conservative” republican.
- I seem to recall a candidate in 2008 who had a similar, sfumato-like history...
Nah. Not feeling singled out. Just noting the irony of you posts - whining about any felt pressure on your vote while out of the other side of your mouth bad mouthing fellow pragmatic voter FReepers for their decision.
I love irony. It's so ... ironic.
What’s sauce for the goose...

Sorry.
I forget that not everyone has read every goofy thing in these long threads.
Just what "year" was that? Was there a competition? Who voted? I've been here since '01 and I didn't get a vote. Was he elected by the mormon "cabal"?
Does the "Freeper of the Year" title come with a guarantee that everything issued from the keyboard of the FOTY is blessed by God? Is there a FR rule that no one is allowed to rebut the "Pearls of Wisdom" (or "Great Price") from the FOTY when they are not pearls, and certainly not wise?
That’s funny as I am a Hoosier.
And let future researchers miss all the NAMES we've been called?
If we don't want to play; then leave!
Ah. A baseline "reading for comprehension" problem on your part, then. Gotcha.
Now, that's "irony," weapons-grade... and with the word used correctly, to boot.
Back to your juice box, peewee.
Yup; even though it IS in the Book!
James 1:23-24
I think it's more than that.
The evidence is so damning they can't have it being exposed more than it had already been.
CERTAINLY don't want any more 'discussion' about it!
Just a several-days-delayed case of butthurt finally manifesting itself, evidently. ;)
