As for this "pro-choice" judge, you have to read further in the article to see the reason Romney appointed the guy..."Romney aides note that Nestor was a career prosecutor who was not outspoken about his political beliefs. In addition, they say, Romney viewed posts in district courts -- which deal with criminal and civil matters but rarely if ever decide issues of constitutional rights -- differently than he did appellate court judgeships.
"The two main considerations were experience and having someone who was going to be tough on crime and able to handle the incredibly hectic pace of a busy district court," said Peter Flaherty, Romney's deputy campaign manager and a deputy chief of staff while Romney was governor. "Matt Nestor's credentials and qualifications for a district court post are unimpeachable."
So which is it, MSM? Litmust test or no litmus test?
How many hit pieces have they levelled at Hillary or Obama?
Uh-oh, Precious Willard got some ‘splainin’ to do.
Do you think they would use the word “myth” with Hillary? As in the myth of how you believed Bill when he told you he did not have sex with that woman?
Anyone who says that Mitt Romney is pro-life, or a conservative, is either a paid hack, a koolaid drinker, or dangerously naive.
As someone who lives in Massachusetts, I cant believe the GOP is going to nominate Romney but as of now, I think he will be the nominee.
If your gonna nominate a liberal, atleast nominate the one whose honest with himself and may carry his home state. Giuliani could carry NY. No chance in hell Romney wins Massachusetts. Zero. He left unpopular and many see his stay here as a well orchestrated stepping stone to run for President.
I really hope Fred Thompson can win. If its Romney, it will be a disaster. They will turn him into John Kerry Part 2.
So Romney won’t win his home state (Al Gore)
Romney flip flops on core issues (John Kerry)
Has the looks (John Edwards)
Bad combo!
He vetoed the bill providing state funding for human embryonic stem cell research
He vetoed a bill that provided for the “morning after pill” without a prescription because it is an abortifacient and would have been available to minors without parental notification and consent
He vetoed legislation which would have redefined Massachusetts longstanding definition of the beginning of human life from fertilization to implantation
He supported parental notification laws and opposed efforts to weaken parental involvement
He fought to promote abstinence education in public school classrooms with a program offered by faith-based Boston group Healthy Futures to middle school students.

This sorta reeks of the Kerryesque I was for it before I was against it, while I voted against, but was for it, but now that I’m running for President, just forget all about it... or something like that. I’m confused. That Precious sure has vision, backbone, and uh, yada yada yada.
Why is he running for President again ?
How many kids does Fred have? Y'all may count both wives.
The ship is sinking, dude. Get on the Fred train.
Care too address those accomplishments? Are they don’t fit you template? I bet you will conveniently swith topics.
Rick Klein’s and Jake Tapper’s Brains: Myth or Reality?
We know that they have no integrity.
And the spectacle of John McVain callinganyone unprincipled is laughable.

Was he pro-life then? I'll bet we never find out. The Fredheads are making too much noise banging on pans and cans to frighten the Mitt monster away. We couldn't hear the news anyway.
Those "facts" are completely overwhelmed by the fact that Romney signed a permanent assault weapons ban into effect.
Those "facts" are completely overwhelmed by the fact that Romney implemented gay marriage in MA, even though to this day there is no law or constitutional provision that allows for it.
Those "facts" are completely overwhelmed by the fact that Romney's administration flooded the public schools with the most vile and disgusting gay propaganda imaginable.
Those "facts" are completely overwhelmed by the fact that Romney sought and obtained the endorsement of the radical gay activists, and rewarded them with policy and personnel decisions that favored them, including judicial nominations.
Those "facts" are completely overwhelmed by the fact that Romney stridently supported abortion on demand for over 35 years, since before Roe vs. Wade.
So what ? What he did 25 years ago is irrelevent, especially as a SINGLE man. His dating habits while he was Senator had no bearing on his performance, and we as his constitutents had no worries.

You seem obsessed with the '80s. This article points out that Precious Willard is a hypocrite and a liar regarding his own record of the past 2 years. Fred's record while holding office was clear and unequivocal... pro-life. Can ya dig it ?
BTW, President Reagan was divorced, too. Gonna bash him ? Oh, and Fred's ex-wife has endorsed him 100% for President. She knows him a bit better than you and I.
I was right. You ignored the list and started your distraction routine. Here is the list again. Did he or did he not do the following? Please address these facts and then your can start your routine.
