Wow the Liberals and their Astro turfing campaign is loving the brawl now happening in the GOP. I thought the GOP was now the “Big Tent” party. Where different viewpoints were encouraged. There are fiscal, military and social values voters in the party. There is with Ron Paul’s libertarians now a National outreach to limited government and constitutional concerns also offered a voice. The Tea Party is about rooting out corruption and a return to the Constitution.
Those who resent Mitt Romney’s wealth are giving in to the Socialists who view anyone with too much money as a criminal who should be punished. We used to celebrate achievement. The Dems are hypocrites whose politicians extoll income redistribution then hide their assets behind complex Trusts. Like John Kerry who moved his yacht to Rhode Island to escape taxes in his home state.
Romney is viewed with distrust because he was a GOP Governor in a Blue majority Dem state. Wow he compromised in order to govern effectively. Get over it. My concern about NEWT is he is an opportunist. What are his core values and does he hold to them?
Romney is criticized for his donations to his church. Which are consistent with his core beliefs and values. My concern about Romney is he tough enough to deal with the Iranians, Putin, Hugo Chavez and the like. I have no doubts that Newt is tough enough. The World is a dangerous place. We have people who do hate us. We cannot afford a weak President.
This Conservatives eating their own though. Only serves the Dems interests not ours. I don’t understand why many who are Freepers don’t seem to get that?
Also please tell me where its a Crime to get rich in the US? When did Horatio Alger become a criminal??
Horatio Alger was no criminal. Romney is no Horatio Alger. I refuse to worship Romney for acquiring his assets by raping weakened corporations, taking them over, ripping off major fees, guaranteeing the failure of the host he was feeding off, stripping their plants of equipment, firing the workforce (let 'em eat cake!) and, maybe using the name and goodwill of that host corporation to re-open in Bangladesh, paying those workers 7 cents an hour without benefits, bringing the products back here under "free trade," and maximizing the resulting "profits" before selling, cashing out, and moving on to the next victims. We could call this "vulture capitalism" but that would be insult to capitalism and to upstanding vultures who cannot help themselves by rejecting their instincts. Sorry, but all that may not qualify Mittwit for residence in the hoosegow, but I and a LOT of other conservatives are not going (now or ever!) to break out the pom poms and start cheering: Yea, Rah, Rah Mitt!
Also note that neither he nor his father nor any of his four sons have ever served in the military. Military service, as his peer the late Leona Helmsley might say, is for the little people. Mittwit expects those he has fired to do the hey military lifting and dying. On second thought, the troops are probably thankful to be spared having any Romneys deployed with them.
Big tent, my ass! Romney wants to buy, bully and bribe his privileged elitist way to the White House. He has no apparent interest in anything but fattening his trust funds and those of his friends. Newt Gingrich has always been one of us. So has Rick Santorum (who should withdraw and endorse Newt now. So has Herman Cain who has endorsed Newt. So has Rick Perry who has endorsed Newt.
Ron Paul is a barking moonbat and crackpot whose support understandably comes from the pro-abortion, pro-homosexual, anti-American, dope smoking, earmark gobbling, Ahmadinejad-loving, jihad-enabling wings of the Demonrat Party. This is his last time at the rodeo and good riddance.
Willard Mitt Romney has NEVER been one of us, is not one of us and NEVER will be one of us. He is an elitist financial bully. If he manages to financially muscle his way to the nomination, he is going to be flabbergasted at just how many social, military, gun loving, tax (on folks of modest means) hating, pro-life, pro-family Republicans will refuse to vote for him and how they can force his destruction. If the GOP establishment doesn't like that, tooooo bad! Dump the POS now and they can save the humiliation.
No more Bush the Elders, no more Robert Doles (tax collector for the welfare state), no more Gerald Fords, no more John McCains. It's over. In the House, no more John Boehners, no more Dennis Hasterts, or Susan Molinaris, or any other "responsible" quislings lusting after crumb$ from the Demonrat feast or private sector payoffs by special interests intention of screwing over the rest of us. In the Senate, no more comfy quislings like Richard Lugar, Mitch McConnell, John Cornyn, Lamar!!! Alexander, Bob Corker, Susan Collins, Olympia Snowe, Light Loafers Lindsay Graham, Mark Nancyboy Kirk, Lisa Moocowski, and a whole lot more of their ilk. As any number of monarchs used to say: Off with their heads (politically speaking).
Romney had to "compromise"???? AFTER he claims to have become a pro-lifer, he created Romneycare and put Planned Barrenhood on the board of his socialized medicine scheme "for the little people" as his way of letting them know that, whatever he may claim, abortion still comes first and foremost as his medical plan. He also saw to it that abortions would go for a mere $50 which is cheaper than most non-generic medications. He claims to be pro-family but ordered town clerks to issue gay "marriage" licenses for in state perverts and did absolutely nothing to fight the court decision which purported to find that John Adams, our second POTUS, when writing the Taxachusetts constitution in the 18th century, guaranteed a right to perverts to play at being "married." Suuuuuuure, he did. If liberals are enjoying the brawl, Romney must be having a blast since he is as liberal as Obozo.
The Tea Party was shocked over Obozocare or Obamneycare as one may prefer and over the porkulus bill but also about the fact that our "leaders" like Obozo, Boehner, Reid, McConnell, Romney and so many others so enjoy sticking a shiv in ordinary Americans and laughing all the way to the bank with special interest money and the general attitude of the elitists that law abiding, hard-working, morally conservative and conventional, tax-paying citizens of modest means be damned. Don't kid yourself that Tea Party is a paleoPaulie rally of some sort. Think "silent majority" and Reagan Democrats and Reagan Republicans. All are considered low rent ignorant wogs by our aristocracy like Obozo and Mittwit and their polo playing, Junior Leaguer, idle airhead trust fund baby friends and acquaintances.
What will only serve the Demonrats' interests would be the nomination of that arrogant POS Romney who lacks the slightest clue as to how most of us live. I don't pay $3 million a year in taxes (at 15% no less) and most here don't pay that much either. If you do, good luck to you. I would like to pay that much but if I did I would lack the common touch as much as Mittwit does. I remember his father George Brainwashed Romney. Mitt is at least a second generation idiot. And, BTW, other than boundless greed and arrogance, Mittwit has NO core values. Newt does. Santorum does.
