me too
I think too many people don't get this. Unlike Obama, Romney isn't an activist, he is an opportunist. This puts the responsibility in Conservatives' corner to influence him, something we have no chance to do with Obama. Romney will pander, Obama won't. A pandering moderate is better than a liberal activist. We failed (yes, WE failed) in getting a Conservative champion so we have to play the game as it is presented to us.
Romney has my vote. Can’t wait to fire President Token.
Self-ping
I don’t have a dog in this fight. Sorry.
Good thing. Obama might eat it.
ME 2
ANN COULTER elucidates the problem completely.....
There are 2 issues here.....CRUCIAL ONES.......the results of which are lethal to AMERICA and they cannot be undone.....the question becomes which candidate has the best stance on these 2 issues
1. OBAMACARE...if it is allowed to go forth and people get used to some of the ‘treats’ it contains...then it cannot and will not be overturned AND AMERICA WILL FOREVER BE CONDEMEND TO GO DOWN THE SOCIALIST PATH......people simply will not let go of their treats...therefore we must back the man most likely to deep six obamacare....on Mitts website he pledges on his first day in office to write immediate waivers to each of the 50 states thereby rendering it a non starter then he pledges to work for it’s repeal.
2. Immigration ....if amnesty in any form goes forth its just a matter of time before America becomes CALIFORNIA...again it is something that cannot be undone AND WILL FOREVER CHANGE AMERICA... if allowed to go become law and illegal immigration is not stopped in it’s tracks..........
On his website MITT says:
‘Mitt Romney believes in the rule of law and will FULLY ENFORCE THE FEDERAL IMMIGRATION LAWS. As governor, he authorized state police to assist the federal government in immigration enforcement.
SO HE’LL ENFORCE THE LAW AND NO AMNESTY....
‘Mitt Romney opposes amnesty because he believes that it acts as a magnet encouraging illegal immigration. The last amnesty law passed in 1986 granted legal status to 2.7 million illegal immigrants. In the decades since, the illegal immigrant population has quadrupled. Mitt believes that an amnesty should not be permitted to happen again. Illegal immigrants who apply for legal status should not be given any advantage over those who are following the law and waiting their turn. Mitt absolutely opposes any policy that would allow illegal immigrants to “cut in line.’
NOW as far as his other leanings which some conservatives might find not so palatable..
Ann Coulter points out that Mitt does show some willingness to be influenced and listen to other conservative thought and with our control of both houses it will be not a difficult thing to bring him around to conplete conservative compliance...
Herself, from what I can tell.
"At that, I would vote for a Justin Beiber/Twilight/Ke$sha fan over Obama. Heck, I would even vote for Humblegunner over Obama. But I repeat myself."
I'm going to ping him for courtesy because he was mentioned, and say that I would vote for Humblegunner (or almost anyone else) over Obama as well. At least HG can be funny at times. I may get called a suck-up newbie for that, but you take your chances.
WWRD...(What Would Rush Do?)
As my grandfather once said, wish in one hand and crap in the other. See which one gets full first.
Obama is an enemy of the State. Romney is not. Put the Kool-Aid down.
Get rid of the EPA? I wish? Restrain them and rescind their orders? You betcha!
Best line of the thread.
We’re in one bad predicament.
“I would vote for a transvestite-reptilian-robot-Buddhist-Twilight fan if it meant getting rid of Obama.”
You forgot zombie. And syphilitic.
“House Rep. Shelia Jackson Lee is my CONGRESSWOMAN. I think see is running unopposed.”
Stuff like that should NEVER happen. I think the parties should always have candidates on the ballots, if it’s all that hopeless it’s just the filing fee, maybe some petitions.
A syphilitic zombie would be a great improvement over what we have in the whitecrib now. ORGANIZE BEFORE THEY RISE.
At a minimum, I have a birth certificate and I don't eat dogs.
