“Romney - chosen because He LOST TO McCAIN - check
Romney - invented Obamacare - check
Romney - imposed Gay Marriage - check
Romney - tax imposer (”fees” so its ok) - check
Romney - brutual anticonservative - check
Romney - supports Global Warming, Sharia, TARP - check
Romney - makes ineligibility moot - check”

I’m with you - the country will DEFINITELY be better off with 4 more years of Obama - 4 years of not having to worry about re-election.

(LOL)

That fact that Romney has decided (wisely) not to step into this bear trap does not infer any lack of principles.

We already know Romney has no principles.

We're not as stupid as you seem to think.

SamAdams76:
“We nominated Romney and we are stuck with him, warts and all. Maybe we do better next time. “

Two problems with this nonsense.

1. YOU SUPPORT THE BACKSTABBER ROMNEY,
author of DeathCARE, gay marriage, moreTAXESasfees,
lying-to-a-GOPe-art, and pandering summa cum laude.

2. The lying Mr. RomneyCARE has not nominated, yet.

There's actually a federal law concerning corruption in office. Making such threats is a violation. But never mind that, when you are a mayor your threats are NOT HOLLOW ~ they are very real, particularly when it comes to zoning.

Obviously such threats by mayors are inappropriate and stink of corruption and collusion. But it's up to the people who elected them to denounce the rhetoric these mayors are spewing, because it certainly won't happen otherwise. Menino (Deval Patrick's puppet) and Rahm are in lockstep with Obama.

If these mayors attempt to use zoning as a weapon to prevent legitimate businesses from establishing operations in their cities, they will be exposed, will have a big fight on their hands, and hopefully will be driven from office. If not, the people who elected them deserve what they get.

Good! I’m sick and tired of Obama (or any other President) weighing in on every crack-pot leftist cause de jure. And make no mistake, this whole Chick-fil-a thing is just another leftist-press-generated brouhaha. I applaud Romney for not becoming another Obama in this regard. Presidential attention to this kind of leftist BS is exactly what the leftists and leftist press are trying to gen up. Ignore this crap and it will go away. These issues exist only because the leftist press choose to make them exist in the first place. Romney doesn’t need to aid and abet them by getting sucked in to their need for attention.

Presidents should focus on the really big issues, like the economy, taxation, national defense, defense of our borders, and enforcing federal law, and not on the homosexual agenda.

Romney is smart in what he is doing, namely preparing to restore gravitas to the Presidency and ignoring the leftist homosexual agenda. If Romney took the bait, the leftist homos and every other kind of extremist leftist group would simply gen up one of these kind of pseudo-controversies every day. That kind of nonsense would do wonders for taking the focus off of Obama’s record of economic destruction. I say, stay on message Romney, hammer Obama on his record until he’s been pulverized into dust. Do not be distracted by the pseudo-issues and obfuscations of the leftists! Do not play their game! Play your own game!

"Romney Republicans are already trapped by their own fear."

I "fear" you're gonna be on about 50 fewer state ballots then Mittens, Hoofnmouth.

I'd spend that time on my kids, instead, but hey that's just me.

And we will see how the Pat Paulsen / Cynthia McKinney strategy works for you.

I’m trying to feel good about supporting Romney. He has reminded me again that he has blue blood and I have red. Oh well, go Mitt go!

“He won’t fight the homosexuals...”

This is true - he wants their votes and encouraged their agenda in Mass. when he was governor.

America is fast becoming Sodom and God will be fed up soon and America will be destroyed just as Sodom was.

Of course he can’t comment. Where would that leave him on polygamy, etc? He can’t have one without the rest. He’s as conservative as obama.

Romney can’t “hammer” Obama on his record, because it is so similar to his own.

Wake up.

Putting aside your shared desire with Mitt Romney to ignore the destruction of the foundational institution of our civilization, the natural family, you obviously didn't notice that he also took a pass on questions about Muslim Brotherhood infiltration of our government.

It's obvious that Romney, like most Leftists, wants to blindly pretend that Islam is no threat to our country.

And my legislature is in, some respects, liberal.

Mittens is overly gifted with the gift of understatement.


The Massachusetts State House

After Romney's success in turning around the Salt Lake City Olympics, talk arose that he might seek to be governor. The question was, of which state? Utah or Massachusetts? Clearly, he made a bad career move in picking the latter.

If we focus on electing Tea Party people to our legislatures (like Cruz and West), we need not worry about homosexual marriage gaining a foothold in this country.
_________________________________________________

The legislature never stopped Willard before...

He never referred to them when he all on his lil ol lonesome brought in same sex marriage to MASS..

and dont worry that Willard would have
looked like a fool and a hypocrite...

He would have just looked like he was panhandling and kissing up to us the Conservatives and TEA Partiers (you know those awful Marriage Act folk)

As he has no respect for us or what we want or believe in or for traditional marriage only he just ignored us...

As for ammo, Obama has it now...

Willard keeps playing into Obamas hands...

Its as though he is running to lose...

Yes, he was definitely being a bit too kind in using that description.

The Loony Liberal Massachusetts Legislature was on full and horrifying display during the televised gay marriage debates.

It would be difficult to find a more unique collection of horses' a$$'s anywhere in the universe.
