In Case You Don't Like Romney... A Challenge To Every FReeper
email from friend

In Case You Don't Like Romney...

Columnist Andrew McCarthy gives us what probably is the most important question regarding the upcoming presidential election …

“If Romney wins the nomination, as seems very likely, I will enthusiastically support his candidacy. For my friends who may have hesitation on that score, I’d just ask you to keep four things in mind:

1.. Justice Scalia just turned 78

2.. Justice Kennedy will turn 78 later this year

3.. Justice Breyer will be 76 in August

4.. Justice Ginsburg turned 81 about a week ago and has had cancer twice.

Whoever we elect as president in November is almost certainly going to choose at least one and maybe more new members of the Supreme Court — in addition to hundreds of other life-tenured federal judges, all of whom will be making momentous decisions about our lives for decades to come.

If you don’t think it matters whether the guy making those calls is Mitt Romney or Barack Obama, I think you’re smokin’ something funky….”

So for anybody who is thinking of not voting because your favorite didn’t get nominated, or writing in a candidate who can't win ... just imagine this possibility:

'SUPREME COURT JUSTICE ERIC HOLDER'

Did that get your attention!

That’s funny.
It’s probably how Romney talks to his illegal alien house staff.

WOW.

Abortion is a bugaboo.

Since when is the intentional death of a baby a bugaboo?

Your view of abortion is disgusting.

I’m against it, but it’s a moral matter not a Gov matter.
When you tie the gov all up in moral
matters you find yourself in he positions were in now. Freekin Gov demanding Gay marriage. It aint their place.
Let’s let the Gov govern the economy freely and lets let the Church remain private.

Now we got gay marriage on the table with the Gov forcing Church doctrine.

You have one choice; Obama or Romney.

Actually, we have one outcome, Obama or Romney.

We have many choices of candidates to vote for.

Believe me I understand, and I feel deeply about it, but you wont win a national election on that now that its been ingrained for 50 years.
You can lean on it, everyone feels the pain but that’s not the single issue in the world today.
Yeah we gotta fight, but single button issues lose elections.

No, you do not.
When you slough off abortion (the intention killing of babies) as just a bugaboo, demonstrates you do not get it.
You apparently support Romney who promotes abortion, another demonstration you do not get it.

Romney's judicial appointments would certainly be better than Obama's...

HOWEVER

his appointments would still set back the conservative cause for decades. How many Souters and O'Conners would he be able to seat in 4 years? In 8? The GOP has, yet again, squandered a golden opportunity to repair the damage done to this country by the Democrats.

Abortion is not a single issue, it is one of many issues.
I do not vote for liberals.

Good points. IMHO, Romney has not proven that he can be trusted to make conservative appointments to the SCOTUS. In fact, has he even promised to? Will he appoint “no litmus test” liberals?

When I say Bugaboo I mean this is your hot button issue. I don’t say that this is no an important issues or lessen your position upon it.
I am only saying this is a hot button issue for you, and I understand that.
It hurts for all of us.

Lil ahole Dems would have you believe it’s just a financial option

You’re confusing “conservative” with “Republican.” Apparently you think that a Republican is automatically entitled to a conservative’s vote. Some of us don’t. :^)
