Purpose of FR and why we can never support Mitt Romney

Right now, Cain. He is my first choice. However I would vote for Bachmann as well. I would hold my nose and vote for New, Santorum, Probably not Perry. Not Hunstman or Paul ever. And I would NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER under any circumstances vote for Romney, either in primary or general. Like I said, I know too much to ever do so and as a Christian, I could not do so. Character matters and Romney has none.

I do very much agree that character matters.
Perry and Hunstman are out for me - The rest are not out for me - I truly hope Cain will do the things I want him to do so he can regain my trust and vote. His recent electric fence idea gained a lot of points with me.

Thank you, sweetie pie! I will send you a FR MAIL when I have a minute! May God Bless you!

Salute and God Bless You!

I love the electric fence idea, but I used to spend my summers on a farm so it resonates with me. LOL.

When the issue (in-state tuition) came before the legislature in 2001, the House (which at the time had a 78-72 Democratic majority) voted 142-1 in favor. The Senate, with a 16-15 Republican majority, voted 27-3 to pass it. (Then, Republican Governor Rick Perry signed the bill into law.)

patriot08, you can make excuses for Perry signing it in 2001, but in 2007 when Republican legislators were talking about overturning it, Perry came out and defended it in public. And then in 2011 during a national debate, Perry again supported it, even insulting those who were questioning him.

To top it all off, Perry's campaign communications director had this to say this week: “It is at least interesting that a 10-year-old law that passed with little opposition and treats Texas residents equally would be an issue”

Imagine that - Perry's campaign believes illegal immigrants (or "criminals" as I prefer to call them) should be treated as equals to Americans who are here legally.

When are you going to accept the fact that Perry has embraced this legislation, has defended it multiple times over the last decade, and believes that illegals should be treated "equally" to legal Americans? What else does Perry need to do or say or have his campaign say to convince you of this? Would Perry addressing La Raza's national conference convince you? Wait, he did just that last year, which puts him in the same company with McCain and Obama.

I did not know that! Thank you for letting me know about this. This means there IS something to this :D

Ah, you can tell it’s grifter time again. JR only posts these long screeds when he needs freepers to pony up. It’s the closest he ever comes to actually working for a living.

Ok, who’s got the “well, bye” graphic?

I like Bachmann a lot. She’s my personal favorite of the current crop.

Hi Jim, hope all is well. I'm a big fan of Michelle, but unfortunately don't see her making it through the primary cycle at this point. My hope now is that Freepers can put aside their differences once a (hopeful) Cain nomination comes about, wreck Obama at a historical level.

Rick Perry stated that the drug war may require our military in Mexico

Rick Perry considers securing the border the responsibility of the govmt and has requested additional funding for years from the govmt. to secure the border without results.
He vows as POTUS to put enough boots on the ground secure the border.

Do you agree with the above, and do you think Rick Perry will do as he says he will?

Texas is not the only state to grant in-state tuition.

Gov Perry must have had a very difficult job with a state full of Mexicans, RINOS and Demorats fighting him every step of the way.
I believe he will do as he says if he is POTUS- secure the border.
At any rate, I am willing to forgive him if he has not been able to do that much about illegal aliens.
This election is going to be about jobs- and nobody has done a better job at creating jobs than Texas.

Holy Mackerel! Been gone all day and look what I missed!

When America is sliding precipitously into the abyss, some will argue grabbing onto the Romney rope will save us if no other choice is available. Indeed, it has the appearance of a lifeline. But it isn't securely fastened to the anchor of constitutional and conservative principles. We are duped and the fall continues unabated.

"Better this than that" they say. They keep saying this, but still we slide into the chasm.

I'm done with the Washington DC elitists regardless of the party affiliation. Too often the establishment demands we settle...we compromise. No more. No more counterfeit conservatives and statist RINOs.

Thank you, Jim.

Mitt = the third leg of the Rudy McRomney stool.

Ray Price! Nice touch.

Romney flooded Iowa with glossy brochures in 2008. Today he works behind the scenes to foreshorten the primary process which is derailing his campaign.

He represents a soullessness less focused than that of Obama.

Obama evinces a fiery pursuit of evil, working to kill babies who survive botched abortions, tirelessly sabotaging the American ethos at every turn.

Romney is the mere Judas, or Quisling, the coward shrinking from defense of life and God's natural law.

The conservative who represents all three elements: defense, fiscal, social, is the one we want.

Not a running dog of the Degenerate Islamo-Commie from Kenya.

More conservative Supreme Court nominees than I will from a President Obama.

You mean like John Paul Stevens? You mean like Harry Blackmun? Or how about Earl Warren? Or David Souter?

Don't get me wrong, I don't want Romney either. But the above is a fact.

So is the fact that all of the above were appointed by Presidents with an (R) after their names.

[bcsco]

Who? Who the is a Romney supporter who’s posing as a Cain supporter?

Name them.

He probably means me (and I'm sure, others). I took him behind the woodshed on Tuesday for the way he was berating FReepers.

Man, that’s the best tagline...

No I live in massachusetts, romney will not be like obama, I’m glad you are all in a place fiscally where you can stay home on election day and accept four more years of obama, I cannot take another 4 years of obama therefore I will vote for whoever the nominee is and if you cannot get your guy or girl the nomination that is because they are unelectable if they can’t even beat the other nominees they can’t beat obama, so if you want somone other than romney as the nominee go get them nominated and stfu, and as far as the whole troll issue I would not be surpised if some portion of the whole ‘im too conservative to elect romney’ is anything more than obamas minions undermining any republicans chances
