Good for Santorum. I know he hates to go on the attack, but I don’t. Mitt is a filthy liar! A filthy liberal progressive RINO LIAR!!
Sadly, Romney seems to be getting the default endorsements because of an even greater fear of Gingrich. National Review has come out today against Gingrich, saying he can’t beat Obama. Romney’s picked up the endorsement of Tea Party favourite, Governor Nikki Hailey. The party is choosing up sides between Romney and Gingrich, but many conservatives feel left in the middle with a distasteful choice facing them in the primary ballot box. Some of those will stay with the marginal candidates for Iowa and New Hampshire, but by the time South Carolina votes it will be a two-horse race with no candidate remaining who acceptable to true conservatives.

If Tricia Erickson was right about her report on Mitt’s stand on same sex marriagae: I believe she said that he madated that all judges perform the marriage of any gay couple in Massachusetts. His nomination of judges, too, were very liberal. I couldn’t believe it when I saw him standing there telling lies about his belief in marriage between a man and a woman! Read her book, “Can Mitt Romney WServe Two Masters? If anyone is leaning in his diredtion, this book is a must read!
. It has always been his way.
"While former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney claims he did everything possible to throttle homosexual marriage in his state – his campaign now saying he took "every conceivable step within the law to defend traditional marriage" – several constitutional experts say that just isn't so.
"What Romney did [was] he exercised illegal legislative authority," Herb Titus said of the governor's actions after the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court released its opinion in the Goodridge case in 2003. "He was bound by what? There was no order. There wasn't even any order to the Department of Public Health to do anything."
Titus, a Harvard law graduate, was founding dean of Pat Robertson's Regent University Law School. He also worked with former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore, ...
Romney's aides have told WND that after four of the seven court members reinterpreted the definition of marriage, he believed he had no choice but to direct clerks and others to change state marriage forms and begin registering same-sex couples.
Some opponents contend that with those actions, Romney did no more or less than create the first homosexual marriages recognized in the nation. And Titus agrees."
"....But the court's decision conflicts with the constitutional philosophy of three co-equal branches of government: executive, legislative and judicial, Titus said. It also violates with the Massachusetts Constitution, which states: "The power of suspending the laws, or (suspending) the execution of the laws, ought never to be exercised but by the legislature..."
And it cannot even be derived from the opinion itself, asserts the pro-family activist group Mass Resistance, which says the decision did four things:
* First, it acknowledged that the current law does not permit same-sex marriage.
"The only reasonable explanation is that the Legislature did not intend that same-sex couples be licensed to marry. We conclude, as did the judge, that G.L. c. 207 may not be construed to permit same-sex couples to marry."
* Second, it said it is NOT striking down the marriage laws (among other things, the Massachusetts Constitution forbids a court to change laws)
"Here, no one argues that striking down the marriage laws is an appropriate form of relief."
* Third, it declared that not allowing same-sex marriages is a violation of the Massachusetts Constitution.
"We declare that barring an individual from the protections, benefits, and obligations of civil marriage solely because that person would marry a person of the same sex violates the Massachusetts Constitution."
* And fourth, given that the court is not changing any laws, the SJC gave the Legislature 180 days to "take such action as it may deem appropriate."
"We vacate the summary judgment for the department. We remand this case to the Superior Court for entry of judgment consistent with this opinion. Entry of judgment shall be stayed for 180 days to permit the Legislature to take such action as it may deem appropriate in light of this opinion."
After the Legislature did nothing during the 180 days, Romney then took action "on his own," the group said.
"Gov. Romney's legal counsel issued a directive to the Justices of the Peace that they must perform same-sex marriages when requested or 'face personal liability' or be fired," the group said."
Mitt is not only a RINO but actually Obama lite.
At heart, Romney is not a conservative.
Among the many examples that could be given, contrast him with Dianne Haskett, former mayor of London, Ontario (whose plight was similar to other conservative Canadian mayors): Haskett was fined $5,000 and incurred more than $70,000 in legal bills for refusing to proclaim a Gay Pride weekend.
What about Romney? He and his running mate Kerry Healey went out of their way to produce and distribute fliers at a Gay Pride Parade in Massachusetts that contained the message: ‘’Mitt and Kerry wish you a great Pride weekend! All citizens deserve equal rights, regardless of their sexual preference.’’
At heart, Romney is not a social conservative.

The Mitt Romney Deception
The definitive report of Mitt Romney’s REAL record in Massachusetts before he ran for President.

MARCH 16, 2010
For years now — since 2005 — the homosexual lobby has filed and refiled its bill to legalize “gay marriage” in Massachusetts. They know that the law as it now stands refers to “man/woman”, “husband/wife” relationships as marriage. Today, the Judiciary Committee once again sent the bill to “study” — meaning, they killed it. But the very existence of this bill over the years confirms that we are correct that “gay marriage” has never been made legal in Massachusetts.
SHELVED TODAY:
House Bill 1708
AN ACT TO PROTECT MASSACHUSETTS FAMILIES THROUGH EQUAL ACCESS TO CIVIL
MARRIAGE
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority
of the same, as follows:
SECTION 1. Chapter 207 is hereby amended by adding the
following new section:—
Section 37A. Any person who otherwise meets the eligibility requirements of this chapter may
marry any other eligible person regardless of gender.
Why would the Judiciary Committee continue to bury this bill? We believe they don’t want to draw attention to the fact that all the “gay marriages” since 2004 are fraudulent.
They don’t want the citizens to focus on the overreach by the Supreme Judicial Court. They don’t want the citizens to remember that the Court (unconstitutionally) ordered the Legislature to change the marriage statute in 2003 — and the Legislature failed to act. And they don’t want the citizens to focus on the overreach by then-Governor Romney, who without any Constitutional or statutory authority ordered the Department of Public Health to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, and ordered Town Clerks and Justices of the Peace to perform these illegal “marriages”.
