All of this has got to be a kick in the stomach for the contingent here that have been trying to tell us that we are better off with an Obama second term than to elect Romney.
For the record, I'm not thrilled with Romney either. I wasn't happy with McCain four years ago. In fact, I haven't had my choice for president nominated by my party since 1984, when I was a young man serving in the military. Since that time I've married and raised children to adulthood. That's how long it's been since my choice for president was even nominated at the convention.
I guess I could stamp my feet, vow not to vote and try to bully others to not vote either. But I have always believed in making the best of a not so good situation. In the situation before us, we are far better off electing Romney/Ryan than to allow Obama and his ilk to have a second term in which they no longer have to worry about re-election.
Regarding the Samuel Adams quote, I agree with it wholeheartedly. I believe my vote this November is absolutely essential to help put our country on the right track and by casting my vote, I am fully accountable to God and country. So I am hardly a disgrace to my handle. In fact, if Samuel Adams was alive today, I believe he would vote the same way.
The way I see it, let’s get Obama out first, then we’ll deal with Romney.
I respectfully disagree. I in no way an Obama to win, and have repeatedly said why my vote only matters to God and Me, because I will be voting in Oregon, I do not encourage anyone else to follow that plan, but I wish we had in the last election, because the GOPe will never change, they completely ignored the 2010 rout and give us a Stinking socialist light to run against a full blown Marxist. Somewhere along the line someone should point out the emperor has no clothes.
We have already spent hundreds of Billions of dollars on ObamaCare and whatever they have implemented will not go away under Romney, count on it. For old guys like me, we can see those trains loading us up to go to happy land where work will set us free. Euthanasia is so common in the Netherlands that no one notices. England has added a treatment known as a fast death track, and people just stand by as casual observers, that are glad it isn't them.
From abortion to euthanasia in forty years, the Church has effectively been destroyed.
