Yes. I knee-jerked to your initial post, as do most here. Thanks for acknowledging the misconception..
I agree. Hunker down and get ready. It is not gonna matter who wins this election since noone has the guts to right the ship.
My mind is quite clear at this point on this matter.
What I stated is my personal point of view. You and others are certainly entitled to yours and may see things differently than I or have different priorities.
Realize that the first 17 years of my life were spent in a Marine Corps family and I spent 37 years of my adult life working for the Dept of the Army. That experience has had a significant impact on my point of view and priorities. You will have to form your own point of view based on your own value system and make your own decisions based upon your own convictions, knowledge and value systems.
Let's both hope that we don't have to make that choice and that somehow Romney is defeated by either Rick or Newt.
Be well,

Romney getting elected isn't going to stop it. In fact, the way the chessboard is currently set, it is a checkmate in the making for the progressive left.
Consider for one moment what Romney will do in his first 6 months in office? 0bamacare coming online, tax credits expiring, no budget, the debt limit etc. Everything is set to expire or start after the Nov. elections. I don't think Romney even grasps what the hell is coming his way as the new President. Romney will play a losing game of chess with the liberal progressive left. His advisers are the GOP-e, not We the People.
The crash is coming of a magnitude we have not seen before and Republican elite can't to handle it. We don't have a leader in the House who isn't already a useful pawn of the progressives. So what..we will have another horse trader of our Rights? This time a willing and able President that in the face of progressive orchestrated collapse will capitulate the last of our freedoms away in an effort of compromise? How is that any worse than 0bama?
The GOP-e doesn't give a damn about saving this country, our Rights, or liberty for that matter. If they did, that would be their platform. They've seen us and heard us, but they don't care. This isn't like we've been silent in the past. We've been loud and in their face at times. Yet? It is us vs. them.
Republicans will be blamed for the crash. In many ways I'd rather the country could hold 0bama to account for these new policies.
As much as I was against him when he tossed his hat in the ring, the truth is Gingrich is the only candidate that has a clue how to slow the train down. He is the only one. And in fact, Gingrich is the only one who can navigate our way back to freedom ...after the fall. Romney won't do that.
So there is a difference.
A President Myth means the GOP controls more of Congress.
I am 1000% with you!!!!! WE HAVE TO MEAN THIS!!!! It can’t be just
talk and no action!!!!! I so remember how amazed I was when Glenn
Beck got all of the Tea Party members into Washington, he showed us all
that we are NOT alone we are a HUGE force to be reckoned with!!!! Where are all of these people??? Somehow I think that with all of that
strength and numbers we were still told SCREW all of you and health care
was still crammed down our throats!!! I think many felt beyond defeated,
kicked in the teeth. I WOULD FIGHT WITH MY LAST DYING BREATH
FOR A NEW PARTY!!!!! WE have to be the leaders, WE have to want
to be the generation that SAVES our beloved country and the FIGHT
would be beyond anything we would be able to for see. DO YOU FOLKS
HAVE THE COURAGE AND STRENGTH IT WOULD TAKE????
Wrong. My preference in order is S, G, RP, R, O. Mho is that no matter who wins to face O the economy and gas prices will unite behind them. I’ll tell you something else as well. If Santorum does not beat Romney in Ohio, the primary is essentially over. So say your prayers for Rick as much as that may distress you.:-)
BRAVO!!!!!!
Conservatives are pretty much locked in to whatever nominee this primary system gives us; however, I do believe that there may be more support for an emerging third party after the election. Conservatives will never get fair treatment within the current GOP structure; the system is just too weighted against us or any other meaningful agents of change. I’m pretty tired of trying to change the GOP-E only to end up jousting windmills every time.
BRAVO!!!!!!
Oops - just added to my tagline in your honor.
conservativejoy overstated it, but Mormons are not enthusiastic about military service, Utah has almost the lowest enlistment rate in America.
The Romneys have a perfect, unbroken record of no Romney man having ever served the united States in uniform, more than 170 years, neither patriotism or the draft, or the Civil War, or WWI, WWII, Vietnam, our current wars, nothing has changed that.
The Romneys have served Mormonism continuously during there entire history in America and are high ranking Mormons, Mitt is a Bishop, his father was a Bishop, Mitt’s uncle was in line to be their Pope, but you won’t see one of them enlisting anytime soon.
I could never live with my conscience if I were to vote for Romney. I would not physically be able to mark that circle or whatever hateful mail in ballots they force us to use in my state.
I cannot and will not ever vote for Romneypuke. Cannot, will not. Ever.
It certainly does for me, the prince is in full frontal assault on the Constitution and he's making headway that a second term will lock in forever. I understand principle but I love my country, my grandkids, my family and our freedoms and the prince is attackig them all with disgraceful apologetics, debt, skyrocketing energy prices and assaults on the first, second and fourth amendments. This guy has got to go.
You said it yourself....a "president MYTH.
4.an imaginary or fictitious thing or person.
5.an unproved or false collective belief that is used to justify a social institution.
I agree 100%.
You deserve whatever President Obama does to you.
Oh gee, become a martyr for the Lord? Darn it.
I take it you’d prefer 4 more years of obama than a rino we can keep on a short leash then?
Are we to assume the plane is going to crash into the pool?
