I didn’t think of what you said as a misquote, because you didn’t say it was a quote. I thought it was a reasonable attempt to paraphrase what she said — I just found the exact way she said it interesting.
Maybe somebody can send a bit of Sam Adams their way....
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
Thanks for the wrap-up, short and sweet (or sour in Romney’s case). Organizations and individuals that foolishly get behind Romney, need to be notified. I for one will be writing to notify them of the true nature of the person they’re endorsing.
I don't get Hannity -- what did she say?
10 years from now, when many of us are dead or bankrupted or in jail on trumped up political charges, you can all brag about how “pure” you were in 2012, and how you did not “compromise” -—
I’ll be in jail but it won’t be for trumped up charges or i’ll be dead.
I’ll see America crash and burn before I will vote for a 100% phoney like Romney.
In the most critical time in our recent history we need a reformer..someone who will restore our Republic..someone with solid priciples and who do we get...WILLARD?
Well, either his nomination was rigged(Rove/Fox/GOPe), he bamboozled his way in(91% negative ads), or worse he is what America wants (unlikely/no evidence he is a reformer).
Personally, why anyone would want to live in an America where the people elect a Obama or a Romney to the highest office in the land is beyond me.
What once was a Constitutional Republic is no more and there is no evidence Romney will remedy that situation.
Yes. God help us all.
Doesn’t leave us much choice when both parties are slimy and criminal to the core, does it?
NObody questions that Obama is bad, bad news.
If Romney becomes “our” (gag) candidate I will be arguing that Romney is slime but at least he’s not as slimy as Obama.
But Romney is not our candidate, and as long as I have the choice of somebody who is committed to FREEDOM to the point that he would not even consider forcing Catholic hospitals to perform abortions, I have to support the non-tyrant. Why support a tyrant who modeled for Obama the very way he could take over 1/6th of the economy and force a government doctrine onto a religious denomination against their own beliefs?
The R establishment wants everybody to believe that Romney is a done deal. He’s not, and the only way he will be is if people who should know the difference between a primary and a general election betray the very cause they have collected money to support. If I was a Catholic who gave money to NRLC and Susan B Anthony I’d be burning down their phone lines asking for my money back. These groups are jumping the gun, trying to coronate Romney as the candidate when the race is still on and a genuine pro-lifer is still in it.
I told my husband this morning I don’t think my back has any more surface area to field the stabs from people who claim to be on the side of freedom, life, and the US Constitution.
Endorse Romney over Obama? Uhh, okay. Endorse Romney over Gingrich? No f’n way!!
What do you mean?
You know the second someone endorses the lesser of two evils, they’re immediately labeled RINO. They endorsed Reagan over devout Christian Carter, but that matters not these days.
Geez, the world is truly upside down. Probably a VERY good time to stay really close to Jesus.
Guess I’ll just take the money I was saving for the NRLC and give it to Newt — he’s the only one left standing that truly represents ME, consistently, anymore, on this issue.
Ron Paul has no clue that the Islamists are our enemies. He also is dangerous for that reason.
I am puzzled beyond belief at this hypocrisy.
Jesus is the only One we can really trust. Things are getting crazy and all the supports we once had are crumbling. He never will, and that is the joy that nobody and no thing can ever take away.
What nonsense. Anyone who supports Romney because “HUR HUR HUR HE’S NOT OBAMA” is a party voting for the decline of this nation.
Newt does not have a prayer.
Newt is, by far, the smartest man in politics and NEWT knows he does not have a prayer.
Newt will have an impact of some type on Delegates and on the Platform issues, and on the national debate on all of the issues.
The Primary is OVER folks.
I don’t like it, but I live in the real world and delusions and fantasy do not help the cause.
There are many members of the pro-life movement who were once pro-death and we welcome and embrace them because we can see that, by God's grace, their hearts and minds have changed. These conversions are real and they are obvious.
Mitt Romney has had no such conversion. He was always pro-abortion until he decided to run for president six or so years ago and he realized that he had to say he was pro-life in order to win the GOP nomination. If he had experienced a real change he would talk about it, but he doesn't, he wants people to believe he has always been pro-life and this is a lie.
Keep praying. We trust in Him.
It's not yet mid April. Nothing is set in cement.

I called 3x to get a live person so I left a message.
Perhaps follow Romney's money...
