LOL, you just post whatever scattered thoughts pop into your head.
With our GOP governors close political loyality ties with Corker and Alexander I doubt our governor will act to protect the health and safety of Tennessee. Governors need to grow a spine and that too leads back to Romney who pandered to the left.
Which is just as bad as Mutt 3.0.
I have no idea why you are telling me all this, all I did was point out that George W. was a two term Texas governor way back on the thread.
Among all Romney’s many faults, in 2012 he had a more conservative position on illegal immigration than anyone in Congress. I would like him to run if only to keep our more favored candidates true on immigration. I winced as Newt rambled on about church-going PTA-attending Hispanics.
According to Wikipedia, Romney was an independent in 1992 and voted for Paul Tsongas for President in the Democrat primary that year. He changed his affiliation to Republican in 1993 to run to the left of Ted Kennedy for U.S. Senate.
Looks like Ansel isn't making that up. And yes, his PLATFORM was conservative. But not a whole lot else about Romney himself was.
Immigration was another Romney fake out.
Here is him on tape.

Here is Mitt and his family in real life:
Governor Mitt and wife Ann, were interacting with the Guatemalan illegals at their private home for 10 years. The landscaper that the illegals worked for, was a naturalized Colombian himself, personally chosen by Mitt, (A naturalized Colombian, Guatemalan illegals, and a sitting Governor during 4 years of that period), IDs better have been checked.
In December of 2006, the republican Governor was exposed, and suffered national embarrassment for using illegals for 10 years.
In December of 2007, in a national debate, Rudy Giuliani accused Mitt Romney of having run a Sanctuary Mansion. On national TV, Mitt Romney indignantly denied the claim.
A few days after the debate, the Boston Globe decided to look again at Mitts house, and guess what, they found Guatemalan illegals, they were working for the same Colombian, MITT HAD NEVER FIRED THEM!
Ten years and a national scandal, turned into 11 years, and into a second national scandal, with all the same players, the same contractor, Guatemalan illegals, and the same Mitt Romney and his wife interacting with them at their home during the week.
Getting people to understand many politicians are like chameleons in the way they change their platform or much worse their principles to suit the political environment they are in is a difficult task. Hillary Clinton can give Conservative speeches as could Bill in 1992. Just be darned if I’d vote for her if she changed to GOP. Also don’t just listen to what they say but also read what they say {speeches}. You’ll often catch many important things about a candidate you likely missed.
Thank you for that 2005 clip of Romney. Seven years later, we hear the mirror opposite. "E-Verify all the way". Yes, a fake out.
I would like to see the link because I went to Wikipedia and did not see it. Maybe someone added it. The claim he ran to the left of Ted Kennedy would be difficult to substantiate.
I don’t really care because Romney was going to get my vote vs Obama once he secured the nomination and frankly I consider it hysteria at that point to believe it was correct to allow Obama to win.
He did have a conservative platform, was he completely trustworthy I’m sure not. He’s a politician.
This is the very definition of insanity. And the proof of our “enemy within” which is even closer than we thought.
Didn’t you read post 66 to you, quoting Mitt Romney running to the left of Ted Kennedy on gay issues?
For some voters it might be enough for me to simply match my opponents record in this area. But I believe we can and must do better. If we are to achieve the goals we share, we must make equality for gays and lesbians a mainstream concern. My opponent cannot do this. I can and will.
He was speaking against discriminating against gays. Not for gay marriage. Do you oppose that? How is it to the left of Ted Kennedy?
Do you have an obsession with Mitt Romney? Do you dream about him? Do you ever worry about Obama?
How do you feel about Catholics?
He was speaking of the entire gay agenda of the time.
You keep ignoring even his own quotes, as he says that Ted Kennedy is not as strong as himself in promoting the gay agenda, he even called for homosexualizing the military.
I notice that you are going personal, a lot of freepers have been posting what should be shocking facts to you, but you continue to pretend to play dumb and to ignore them and the facts.
The obvious question is, what causes your devotion to this radical liberal?
This guy has already seen more than enough facts and links and sources on that well known fact.
He even has Romney’s own statements, Romney admits that he voted for Tsongas, and was proud that he became an Independent and didn’t support Reagan/Bush.
He signed a proclamation hailing a Gay Pride march sponsored by Home Depot that had a child as Grand Marshal. Or something like that.
Lol, and what does that “discrimination” consist of in the eyes of Romney and yourself?
“Marriage”
Serving openly in the military
Able to discriminate and prosecute those that desire freedom of association/religion
Attacking those who understand the difference of innate and behavior
And a whole host of other powers that would be given by Romney in order to discriminate against reason
Why do you support politicians who seek to discriminate against those that are repulsed by behaviors contrary to Natural Law?
He kicked out the Boy Scouts during the 2002 Winter Olympics until pressure made him relent.
