How about "you bastards..."?

I am tired of this crap that the media is throwing at the Romneys, but don't give a damn about what the hell Barry is hiding.

Good grief!

Why would it bother you?

Romney is wealthy, by any measure.
The legal requirement for POTUS candidates is one year of tax returns be made public.

Romney complied.Did you read over that information?
End of issue.

Unless you believe, as does the current POTUS, and the entire Democrat party, that successful men and women are innately evil, I don't understand your problem with the legal filing requirements.

The ONLY one who helps Obama is Mr. RomneyCARE.

Just sayin'



Mitt Romney Sends Leftover Pizza to Obama Chicago HQ
After spending the day in Chicago fundraising, Mitt Romney
sat down with small business owners at Gino's East,
a pizza joint famous for their deep-dish pizza.
In fact, Romney himself tweeted a photo of a
delivery boy heading out with the loot, writing,
"Great deep dish at @ginoseast.
Sending the extra slices to @barackobama and his Chicago HQ team."

You are nuts. I've been around here many years and everybody knows what I think of Obama.

So, why aren't you up on the personalities at FR? Is it perhaps the case you only come around at election time for the purpose of harrassing Conservatives or something?

We are watching for you guys ~ and we are making an offer. Go convert an OBOT to a MITTBOT ~ that'll get all the votes you need, and you won't need mine.

The Presidency will be a huge burden on the Romney family. In my estimation, they will serve and then leave ...

None of them -- no Romney in Romney's clan -- has ever served in the military. No uncles, no sons, no brothers, no fathers or grandfathers. Not a single one. Nor any of Romney's strapping sons, but the breathtakingly arrogant Romney assured folks while campaigning a few years back that his sons could be compared to American soldiers in the Middle East, because his sons were "serving their country" by campaigning for Romney.

The worst part is that most of the folks on the verge of voting for him, know he's a Trojan Horse ... but plan on voting for him anyway for ONE reason: they're scared crapless of Obama.

Sometimes you don't need hindsight to see 20/20 -- and you don't need hindsight to see that decisions made in fear are usually bad ones. It's already clear as day that voting for Romney is a bad decision. People admit it -- they justify it by convincing themselves that Obama would be worse because they've allowed themselves to become so convinced that with Obama, *resistance is useless.* Zombie-like, they buy into it to justify rolling over and voting for a politician they KNOW is a mistake and always despised.

I hope that before November, people start investigating other risks and options such that cool calculation, courage, and willingness to take risks, overcome fear. Resistance can WIN -- rolling over always loses. Risk is the price you pay for opportunity. There's zero risk with Romney, as it is 100 percent certain that he will make liberalism more powerful in both parties. Hence Romney presents zero opportunity.

Facing down an Obama re-elected on a plurality where the majority of Americans voted for somebody else (with Clinton, the first plurality win was follwed by the Republican Revolution; the second plurality win was followed by impeachment proceedings against Clinton, so don't for an instant think that popular mandates don't matter), facing down a defensive, weakened, mocked Obama rejected by the majority, and having a Republican-dominated Congress with increasing numbers of conservatives within it, is a risk alright, but that's the price for opportunity.

I'm voting third party at the top of the ticket to give the conservatives I vote for down ticket the best opportunity to stem the tide of statism. Voting for a statist, whether it's Obama or Romney, will ONLY bring more government tyranny. Voting to make statism weak is the ONLY way we can bring this nation back to a rightward course.

There are no military veterans in Romney's family or background. To hell with expecting him to "serve" America.

Even Newt Gingrich, who can demolish the MSM like no one else, would never refer to them as "you people"

No, but Rush would.

I'd refer to them as YOU Malicious Dirtbags.

That's right, the ultimate answer ~ and the answer to your misrepresentation of that article you just read ~ look at post #42.

ONE YEAR ~ that's it.

>> I’ve been around here many years and everybody knows what I think of Obama.

I’ve been around here many years, too — and I’m not so sure I do, anymore. That’s why I asked.

>> Go convert an OBOT to a MITTBOT

Is that all there are in your universe? ‘BOTs? Nothing in the middle? I thought you were smarter than that, muawiyah.

>> you won’t need mine.

I couldn’t care less who you vote for, personally. Or if you vote at all. The number of direct FReeper votes isn’t enough to turn an election for dogcatcher in a medium-size municipality. What blows me away is how supposedly conservative FReepers are using the premier conservative website to smooth the way for a known Marxist to be elected POTUS for four more disastrous years. Talk about useful idiots!

"Presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney on Tuesday turned aside Democrats’ calls that he release more than a decade’s worth of tax returns, arguing that it’s the White House, and not his campaign, that has a transparency problem."

From the link in the post to which you're responding.

AND

Rahm Emanuel: John McCain Looked At Romney’s Tax Returns And Decided Palin Would Be A Better VP McCain looked at two decades of taxes in 2008, PLUS the two years 2010 and 2011 that were just released. Not that this was the true reason they chose Palin afterall it is EMANUEL'S opinion.

That should be plenty. The LEFT, to name a few, are being A$$eS

NT, you guys are dabbling in Fascism ~ and it's going to jump up and bite you in the tail sooner than you imagined.

When it comes to the totalitarians in the world, they are all the same. Sure they argue that there are subtle differences here and there that we ought to respect as we argue whether or not they are an immediate or long term danger, but there's no requirement for Conservatives to do that.

You brought in a bad candidate. The Convention hasn't been held. His wife is quick with the "You people" Business, and the whole family is absolutely remarkable for having absolutely no personal involvement in national defense.

We are doing NOTHING to extend Obama's regime ~ but you are doing everything to make sure it can continue even in Obama's absence.

Released to McCain? That's not a good answer ~ he actually hasn't made even two years public. He' sure hasn't made 12 years public, nor 24 years public.

Public is public.

“You people” was the MSM/LEFT. Who do YOU think she meant? Some religions are conscientious objectors. Are they not free to practice their religion as all are in the U.S.?

Look, I did my Army Basic Training with an all Mormon Utah National Guard unit.

All Mormon All the time ~ and I led them on a beer drinking expedition to Manhattan Island ~ they won the war!

Not a one of those guys was a member of the four historic conscientious objector churches.

The more “these people” complain about Romney, the easier it is for me to support him.

I am not a fan of Romney, but there are times when Romney is the proxy for conservatives, whether or not we think he is a conservative.

I say the same thing about Palin, you have to distinguish when they are attacking Palin personally, and when they are attacking Conservatives in general.

And when he is that proxy, we need to defend him. We can always get back to opposing his policies later.

Definitely the problem ~ still waiting on that GOP-e guy to respond to my detailed analysis of their problem since Alf Landon ~ how they won at a rate lower than random chance ~ which means they actually had to work hard to lose some of those races!

Amen and what you said.

Anyone who is looking to DC for a solution to the problems that DC creates is out of their mind.

This election is just a fight between which bunch of degenerate crooks liars and thieves gets to control the cash extorted from taxpayers by the IRS, nothing more, nothing less.

What has the GOP done to get rid of the IRS and repeal the 16th amendment?

Not a goddamned thing.

The Republicans like to talk tough about taxes, but are part of the same Federal Apparatus the Democrats are.

The IRS extortionists have nothing to fear from the blowhards in the GOP.

Talk about useful idiots!

Don't look now, Tick, but you're urging me and everyone else here to vote FOR a politician who WANTS the full homosexual agenda, from forcing adoption agencies to comply with gay "couples" (oh, I forgot, but only as a states right thing, ha hahahaha!!) to full accommodation of open homosexuality in the military; who WANTS cap-and-trade global warming regulation and a "carbon plan" that is "worldwide in scope" -- i.e., surrender American sovereignty in energy and food consumption and production in the name of "carbon planning"; who WANTS the nanny-state government to control people's health-care choices (oh, but again, only as a states right thing, ha hahahaha!!); and whose record is burgeoning with enabling on-demand abortion paid for by taxpayers, and activist judges.

WHO is the useful idiot? The one who mistakes Obama for the enemy, when the real enemy is statism.

Why don't ABOers so angry with us for refusing to vote for Romney, ever address those truths about Romney principles in practice? The ONLY thing you have is "B-b-b-b-but we couldn't survive Obama! With Obama, resistance is useless!" You totally ignore what Romney IS, and focus instead on your fear of Obama.

Yes, "useful idiot" is a very good term for it.
