Paul praises Romney ‘management style’
The Hill ^

Posted on 02/21/2012 9:13:19 PM PST by mnehring

Presidential candidate Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) said on Sunday that opponent Mitt Romney has the best “management style” out of all of his remaining Republican contest rivals....

...“I think he certainly would have a more acceptable management style when you consider what I have seen and experienced from the other two candidates. I don’t think they qualify there...

Smallpox, an infectious disease unique to humans, caused by either of two virus variants, Variola major and Variola minor

Obama = Variola major

Romney = Variola minor

Both viruses cause small pox. You end up sick, sick, sick.

(You don’t know anything about Mittens if you consider him chicken pox.)

I am going on the assumption that you don’t know Romney at all. Take a look a my tagline. See Romney’s positions on the front page. Get to know what real conservatives think of the lying sack of crap that is Mitt Romney, fake conservative. If he is still acceptable to you, there is no hope for you.

I’m from GA and truly dislike the man. His politics are great when they’re focused on the right thing. The problem is they hardly are.

Either you are myopic, are ignorant of Romney's Progressive Liberal record as Governor, or you are not a conservative.

Any failures in Newt's past pale in comparison to the left-wing positions and governance of Mitt Romney.

Mitt has done the following:

1. Implemented Socialized Medicine with an individual mandate
2. Supported Abortion
3. Supported the Gay Agenda to the point of going out of his way and bypassing the MA congress to implement Gay Marriage
4. Implemented the fake Assault Weapons ban in MA after it expired at the federal level.
5. Supported TARP.
6. Supported the Auto Bailouts
7. Supported Global Warming
8. Did not support Bushes Tax Cuts
9. Stated unequivocally he was not a Reagan Conservative.
10. Raised taxes and fees (just another word for taxes) while governor of MA.

I dare you to try and find such a comprehensive list of failures where conservatism is concerned with Newt.

Furthermore, you find Newt changing positions on issues back and forth with the extreme frequency that Romney does.

Finally, Newt is not a liar as Mitt is.

So either you are ignorant of Mitt's record, or you are a troll and actually support Mitt.

I’ll say it again. I support whomever can beat Obama.

It is my belief that neither Romney, Santorum, or Gingrich can.

Which is why I’m voting for a brokered convention.

It’s pretty simple, mate.

In any case,Lincoln had no management style worth speaking of, but he learned how to run a war by sheer application and by trial and error. I have not seen much application by our current president. He is obviously a lazy man.

Shows how much Paultard is in the boat for Romney.

All those who support Paul must be on drugs.

Most of the Paul supporters I've met are druggies, and they'll make deviant sexual advances against your wife, kids, pets, and livestock, if they get half a chance.

Probably the same for Romney supporters, but I've never let them get that close.

“Rinos aren’t great but they are way better than Obama. Period.”

RINOs like Bush I, BushII, Dole, McCain etc. pave the way to the Obamas of the world. They make socialism more palatable by easing us into it and putting a partial GOP-seal on the movement toward it.

They muddy the waters, confuse the issue and weaken our opposition to what’s happening on our side. By being on “our side” where much less likely to criticize them for doing the same exact things Obama does. That makes RINOs in some ways more dangerous — because they drain our resolve for true reform.

What would help is a clear alternative and maybe a crisis that forces us to adopt the painful post-Communist-style reforms that are necessary. See Chile and Poland. RINOs will not get us there. In fact, they’ll help lead us in the opposite direction.

Under these circumstances, it might be best for Obama to win the election, further wreck the economy and make the options between socialism/fascism and free-markets a lot more clear to the electorate than they appear to be now.

America’s finished if Obama gets a second term, if not the entire world.

Obama is ONLY in office because of Romney and his
child- and women-attacking Team.

If ROMNEY is on the GOP picket, ALL GOP CANDIDATES WILL LOSE.

I am amused that Paul is so in love with Romney, but frauds do stick together apparently.

Paul has even said this months ago about Romney. Paul says he talks to Romney often by phone and both families are close. Paul doesn't like Newt or Rick by any means therefore, I look for Paul to assist Romney when trouble looks on the horizon for his friend.

If true, that is revealing - and disturbing.

Oh don’t get my last post wrong, I completely agree with you.

It’s a matter of what kind of delegate coalition shows up at the convention.

If Romney can offer Rand Paul the VP slot as a means of securing the 100 or so whacko Paulbot delegates, he’ll do it. Because to Romney, it’s not about winning, it’s about securing the nomination that he feels is rightfully his turn.

Santorum needs to come to the convention with about 1,000 delegates and a backing of a 3rd of the Superdelegates. Given the make-up of the primaries, this is certainly doable. But it will be close if these contests stay close.

I think RP prefers Myth to the other two due to the fierce interventionist posture from the mighty podium warriors Newt and Santorum. That’s all I got.

I think I know the strange alliance that has developed between Ron Paul (and his supporters) and Romney (and his supporters).

It’s all about worldview:

They BOTH hate conservatives (and more specifically) they both HATE the Christian ideology which conservatism rests upon. They’re both secular based (despite the protestations otherwise) and really do not like the Judeo/Christian worldview (and those things we support via government) so it’s a perfect match.. (two sides of the “establishment”). My take. -J.S.

The Romney-Paul alliance is out in the open now I guess.

If you want to know how crazy Paul supporters are, just wiki “Paulville”. As a matter of fact, that wiki entry could become a legendary thread on FR I would think.
