There you go. “Circumstances.” Situational ethics, moral relativism. And it describes perfectly what’s going on here. Forget about your principles or your conscience. Forget about doing the right thing. You can use situational ethics or moral relativism to justify just about anything (which is exactly what Romney does).

OK, so that's all you've got.

You accuse others of abandoning their principles and yet your entire argument consists of quibbling over the semantics of one word.

And still you have nothing to say about the irrationality and dishonesty that define the Mitt Hater junta dominating your website.

Fine and fine.

I'll just continue along with my understanding that reason, honesty, decency, and a devotion to making a positive contribution to the here and now are what define conservatism.

You will continue on with whatever it is that you believe.

Jim, you are my HERO!

Keep fighting the good fight brother!
