Does Romney’s strong belief that man is causing Global Warming turn you off?

There are 12 delegates with a possible furter 12,

14, with possibly 14 more. All 16 of those would be 13 "at large" and 3 State Representatives decided at WY May 31 state convention. As of now, only two will be. The twelve up today are county district votes.

I have a feeling many conservatives will vote Obama rather than a Republican RINO pre annointed candidate.

Many people may vote for Obama, but none of them will be Conservatives.

I disagree. Many conservatives will vote for Obama, simply because Obama means to break the strangle hold that the Dem Black Caucus has on urban Black communities. Buh-bye Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

Thats more reason to vote for him than any conserbative has to vote for the Republican RINO candidates, who mean to do secretly what Obama will do openly.

The RNC put out a statement that said any state that moves its primary before NH will have its number of delegates cut in half.

WY did just that. So the RNC did just that.

If it was true. But your statement is false. I am very comfortable with Mitt's position on it. His position is the strongest of all the viables.

Governor Mitt Romney on the Current Environmental Debate Friday, Feb 23, 2007

Boston, MA – Today, Governor Mitt Romney issued the following statement on the current environmental debate. Saying that South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford was right on this issue, he continued:

"Unfortunately, some in the Republican Party are embracing the radical environmental ideas of the liberal left. As governor, I found that thoughtful environmentalism need not be anti-growth and anti-jobs. But Kyoto-style sweeping mandates, imposed unilaterally in the United States, would kill jobs, depress growth and shift manufacturing to the dirtiest developing nations."

"Republicans should never abandon pro-growth conservative principles in an effort to embrace the ideas of Al Gore. Instead of sweeping mandates, we must use America's power of innovation to develop alternative sources of energy and new technologies that use energy more efficiently."

Governor Romney opposed mandatory, Kyoto-like “global warming” regulations in Massachusetts, opting instead for voluntary, pro-growth measures to increase energy efficiency of businesses, reduce carbon emissions and improve the environment with the Massachusetts Climate Protection Plan.

"Unlike the Kyoto Protocol, Romney's plan focuses on voluntary initiatives, restricting any mandatory requirements to only a few large industries and the state itself. The plan includes no enforcement mechanism for requiring attainment of the goals.

In 2005, Governor Romney pulled Massachusetts out of a compact of Northeastern states requiring a reduction in power plant emissions of carbon dioxide because it would have caused continued economic decline in the state.

This is why people don’t like Romney. He says one thing and does another.

"I think we're encouraged that the voters in Wyoming value that my dad had spent time here," Josh Romney said.

Aww, isn't that sweet?

There are very few rino’s in Wyoming my friend. This was a tremendous victory for Mitt in a very conservative state.

Oh boy, how lame. Style over substance. A hand stunt absolves everyone from their actual positions? You know your candidate sponsored a bill in the senate that made the following findings:

SEC. 1001. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON GLOBAL WARMING.

(a) FINDINGS. The Congress makes the following findings:

(1) Evidence continues to build that increases in atmospheric concentrations of man-made greenhouse gases are contributing to global climate change.

(2) The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has concluded that ``there is new and stronger evidence that most of the warming observed over the last 50 years is attributable to human activities'' and that the Earth's average temperature can be expected to rise between 2.5 and 10.4 degrees Fahrenheit in this century.

Isn't that your guy saying one thing and doing another or vice versa?

What’s more defining? A failed bill from 5 years ago and a candidate who is strongly against global warming now, or a candidate who says he is for and against it now?

The question was not whether you strongly believe that human activities are the sole cause of GW. It was whether you believe human activities contribute to GW. I think all the candidates agree with that to some extent or another. The difference between liberals and conservatives is that the liberals fail to take into consideration all of the other main causes. And they really diverge from us on the solutions.

Fred answered the same question on global warming before:

Q: Is global warming a man-made problem?

A: From what we know now, it seems to be in part, certainly. I think that we don't know how much yet. There are a lot of other things we don't know. There's got to be a global solution to it, there's got to be an international solution before we can do anything. We could take a lot of drastic measures here and it wouldn't even make any difference if China, and India and a lot of other countries don't participate.

I think Mitt and Fred have similar positions on this. You are just employing that good old double standard for Mitt we've all come to know and love.
