So the fact that Romney appointed mostly liberal judges in Ma., shouldn’t concern us at all right?

I think it is fair to say that we all can work together to ensure a Conservative Senate, which would block any liberal nominees to the SC (by either obummer or Romney, no matter who gets the win)... But trying to get a Conservative to vote for one such as Romney is a non-starter. Especially using fear tactics such as these.


You're clearly on my side here, so don't take this personal.

I agree with your sentiments, so I hate to be the proverbial turd in the punch bowl, but we should be very careful about our strategies this fall.  We must be rabid realists!

We had a Republican Congress and Senate from 1994 to 2006.

How much of the last 50 years of Leftist legislation did we nullify?  How much of the Leftist agenda, and Leftist dominated agencies did we close?  Did we tell universities and K-12 schools that they must either bring their faculty back close to political parity or lose their federal funds?  Did we take any action whatsoever to stop the Department of Education from implementing the U. N. E. S. C. O. directives that are anti-American?  Did we step in and put a stop to the International Bacalariot Program, intended to remove national/centric examples of history, and replace them with neutered examples of history designed to break down national unity/loyalty?  Did we protect our kids form campaigns to indoctrinate them away from their parents morals?  Did we defund NPR and PBS?  Did we get our border under control?  Did we take measures to enhance or constrain our individual freedoms?  Did we immediately take action to counter Clinton's signature of agreement to join the International Criminal Court?  Did we urge our allies to avoid joining such a court?  Did we avoid implementing any new massive government programs?  Did we get our schools back on track to the point that our students now compare well to foreign nations?  Did our team take action to avoid a servere an almost catastrophic economic earthquake?

I like to be the eternal optimist, always seeing the silver lining, but I refuse to lie to myself and others any longer.

We're never going to fix this mess, as long as we continue to.

Look at you, all preachin' to the choir and such... LOL!

I have largely ceased to participate in these conversations, because I have come to consider them a waste of time - As long as the majority are Republican fanbois and fearmongers, I do not believe there will be a chance for the amount of resolve it takes to envision and implement true change...

I will state again that the problem is not liberalism itself, which has been proven over and over to be an intellectual lie... The problem is that there is no opposition to liberalism, and that, my FRiend, is what should be happening here, if not in the Republican Party.

Romney is not such opposition, and neither McCain, nor Bush(es). Look at where it has brought us.

And you may note, I said Conservative Senate above, not Republican. ; )
