Your first link comes up as error! FOX NEWS probably was FORCED to remove THEIR LIES!!

And Newt’s site and he says the EXACT OPPOSITE of what you accuse him of! You fail big time!

Do you even know that the founding fathers never set up a ‘a job for life’ for judges! Get educated and stop spreading lies about Newt. You must support LIAR mitt.


How is it there in your alternate reality universe?

You have consistently ignored the point that the courts are out of control. You have also consistently attacked the messenger, first Gingrich and now us.

The courts ARE out of control. Tell us how YOU would reign them in if not impeachment and ignoring their unconstitutional edicts.

Respond to what is posted. Personal attacks will be ignored and taken as confirmation that you cannot refute the points being made.

Nothing about Romney's record supports your position or Romney's current words.

Add in Romney's continual practice of lying about his own record, and continually lying about the real conservatives in the race, and why any sincere conservative would believe his words on this issue is beyond belief.


Romney nominated 27 extreme left-wing, Progressive Liberals out of 36 nominations.

Legal analysts say candidate Romney is different from Gov. Romney.

Liberty Counsel Action Vice President Matt Barber said Romney’s appointments were constitutional “living document” poster children.

“Many of Romney’s appointments were not only liberal, not only Democrats, but were radical counter-constitutionalists. How on earth can we expect that, as president, he would be any different?” Barber asked rhetorically.

“Actions speak louder than words, and Mitt Romney’s actions as governor scream from the rooftops that he cannot be trusted with this most important of presidential responsibilities.”

Barber cites two specific examples of Romney’s radical appointments.

“As governor of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney not only failed in this regard, he appointed a number of very liberal, if not radical, ‘living, breathing’-minded judges to the bench,” Barber said.

“Two that come to mind were extreme homosexualists Marianne C. Hinkle and Stephen Abany,” he said. “They both had a long history of pro-gay activism, yet Romney didn’t hesitate to put them on the bench.”

“These are people who outrageously believe the postmodern notion that newfangled ‘gay rights’ trump our constitutionally guaranteed First Amendment rights,” he said.

Baldwin agreed, citing Romney’s statements about the two requirements he actually used when selecting judges.

“Romney did focus on two criteria: their legal experience and whether they would be tough on crime. In other words, the nominee could be a gay activist or a pro-big government, pro-quota, pro-gun control Democrat Party hack who detests every judicial principle treasured by our founding fathers,” Baldwin said. “But if he happens to be tough on crime and have prosecutorial experience, he gets past the Romney filter. Many of Romney’s nominees fit that description.”


How is it that so many of you pimping Romney are so ignorant of his record?

Yup. Me and Judge Bork - “pimping” for Romney:

““No other candidate will do more to advance the conservative judicial movement than Governor Mitt Romney … Governor Romney is committed to nominating judges who take their oath of office seriously and respect the rule of law in our nation.” -Judge Robert Bork in his 2008 endorsement of Mitt Romney”

I’m taken aback by the antipathy towards Romney here on FR. It makes me want to learn more about him, and wonder how I’ve missed the 666 that must be maked on him somewhere, and I don’t pretend to be an expert on him by any means. Up to this point I had regarded him as an unreliable Yankee moderate from Kennedyville in the clothes of a conservative a la Snowe/Brown/Collins, but who is going to be the nominee. I am an expert when it comes to knowing what the African-centered, Liberation Theologist currently in the WH wants to do to the country in the next 4 years. If you do anything to help him, you’re his whore and you will have aided and comforted an enemy of the US. Now let me go read those nice links you took the time to post.

On gun control, probably was influenced by the attempted assassination of his nominator, like Brady.

We don't prefer Romney but the alternative party to the Democratic Party needs to be changed at the local level and it will take more than 18 months.

Removing Obama is a start. Romney is just a "necessary evil" and is the only one that can be elected in 2012 now. He's like a CEO that must be influenced by the board or fired later. Anything else is just not going to work for the next few years.

Your property values and the value of the dollar depend on it.

We are Conservative Christians and we want to help replace Obama with the best chance we have under current law. We want to replace as many Democrats as we can in the next election. We want to replace as many liberals in the Republican Party as we can. The Founding Fathers prepared us for these days.

“The climate of opinion varies by region and era” - Me

I’m sorry but this is false. Conservative values and principles are written in stone. They are absolutes.

I did not say conservative values, I said the climate of opinion. Victorian, flappers, Bobby-soxers, hippies, gen-X-ers, tattooed teens, the Goths and the vampire obsessed are just an example of the last 100 years of women.

The GOP establishment are employees of the GOP voters. Must the GOP base now fight Big Govt as well as Big Party?

Maybe there was never any difference. We have seen the enemy and it is the Beltway establishment.

Mitt needs to just go away .. and stay away!

He couldn't defeat an incumbent president whose 1st term was abysmal in every way imaginable. And during the infamous debate with Candy Crowley when she cut him off at the knees, it was obvious he had only regurgitated a memorized sound bite but did not know the substance behind it with which to hammer both Crowley & Obama with a factual rebuttal.

Donald Drumpf's "conservatism"....

[Rudy Giuliani in Drag Smooching Donald Trump]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4IrE6FMpai8

When an interviewer recently called Lady Gaga the "Billy Graham of pop," she claimed,

"I'm teaching people to worship themselves."

http://www.christianitytoday.com/women/2011/may/lady-gaga-wheres-outrage.html

Rom 1:25-27
25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator - who is forever praised. Amen.

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion. 
NIV

Yep, Romney is one of THOSE “conservatives”, all right.

You know, just like THOSE “conservatives” in Congress who stood up to Obama and stopped his agenda dead in its tracks by passing a budget that eviscerated his illegal immigration policies, eliminated the energy-destroying EPA, eliminated the Marxist propaganda Education Department, eliminated the job-destroying Labor Department, eliminated the racist Civil Rights Commission, defunded the FCC until they give back control of the Internet to private industry, defunded Obamacare, defunded the Planned Parenthood slaughter, defunded enforcement of 99% of Obama”s regulations and Executive Orders. It was a great day for America when that happened, when THOSE “conservatives” stopped Obama’s agenda cold.

Given all of these amazing accomplishments by THOSE “conservatives”, it’s no wonder that the only thing that Freepers and rank-and-file Republicans everywhere care about is getting some more of them elected so that they can continue applying their “conservative” principles to such good effect.
