Romney Says He Will Continue Obama's Policy of Having Homosexuals in Military

CNSNews.com) – Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, says he has no plans to reverse the Obama administration’s repeal of the ban on homosexuals serving in the U.S. military

In an editorial meeting in early November with the Des Moines Register, which endorsed him for the Iowa caucuses pending on Jan. 3, Romney was asked, “How do you feel about gays serving openly in the military?”

Romney said, “That’s already occurred. I’m not planning on reversing that at this stage.”

The reporter followed up, “But you’re comfortable with it?”

See George HW Bush, Nikki Haley, Christine O’Donnell, Ann Coulter, this is what you’ll get with Flip Romney as President (if he’s fortunate to be elected)...no real change from Obama’s social or economic policies, and the liberal will beat him in 2016 in a landslide.

I wrote that before I did a search for the story. It did sound like he tried to shield him from the wind, but I would never take the chance that the crate would fall off. That’s crazy. And the diarrhea may or may not have been due to the stress. In any case, I wouldn’t have done it.

“Not this conservative! I will never, under any circumstances, vote for Willard Romney the open socialist.”

Nor will I. Sad to say, I think you and I will be shown to be in the minority on this website in about 8-9 months.

At least the threads will be good for a laugh.

“May well vote for him...”

Well, you and I disagree. So long as conservatives continue to show up and vote for liberals, they’ll continue to get liberals.

Reluctantly if he gets it, (Israel is a big issue for me), however-I dont want him to, nor do I think he will get it, so I don’t think we’ll have to make that choice, hopefully Gingrich or someone else will get the Nom.

I suspect that she invented her first name "Citlalic" as a public affirmation of her rejection of the probable Christianity of her ancestors, however distant in generations. This theory is also supported by the infamous photograph.

Of course, her parents, if similarly possessed of anti-Christianity as a religion may have given her that name for similar reasons, in which case she is a hereditary non-believer. On the other hand, it is quite unlikely that she is a hereditary lesbian. They were not allowed to adopt that long ago.

“I dont want him to, nor do I think he will get it, so I don’t think we’ll have to make that choice, hopefully Gingrich or someone else will get the Nom.”

As of this morning, Gingrich didn’t make the VA ballot. Nor did he make the ballot in Missouri. Mittens will most likely get the nom. Ron Paul will most likely go 3rd party, and we’ll get a 3 way race between barky, mittens, and Ron Paul.

Correct. And all of this is already being touted as a “done deal” by the Republican establishment, just as abortion has been. Once the left achieves their aim, it’s always a “done deal”, not worth further debate. Margaret Thatcher’s “ratchet effect” right before our eyes. Once the left’s social agenda is enacted, it’s always the end of the matter. Many on the right say the same thing, those “fiscal conservatives” who won’t seem to understand that the left’s social agenda is part of what drives their economic agenda, in making a big government necessary. So now that the
left got this done it’s a “done deal” until they move the goal posts again and then we’ll have those on the right saying “it’s a done deal, we need to move on for the sake of the economy” .

Or worse, because there won’t be a conservative such as Palin to even make the poison palatable. I feel the same way as you-with what we have as real choices, I don’t see anything worthy of my conservative vote. More and more, I’m not even sure if I can hold my nose for any of them. There is no choice for social conservatives, none of them will fight for principle.

Citlalic: The family genius just informed me that it is probably derived from the Nahuatl word for a star.

I believe only Santorum and Bachmann said thney would go back to DADT. I think Santorum would do best in the office, but I know most don’t see.

Cain was smeared by vicious, unsubstantiated attacks

Gloria Cain, a Democrat, intervened. It's not nice to pay another woman money and not tell your wife.

It won’t be humorous but sad that our little Republican primary voters, so uninformed for another election cycle, are going to force us to support Romney in November 2012.

Well, hello, you need to back Santorum; he is in favor of going back to DADT. I know most can’t see. They have vision but are blind otherwise.
