They didnt win and the greater of two evils did
Sorry, but when "our" guy effectively lies to us about representing us, it cancels out the explicit and honest Marxism of the greater evil.
Romney and Ryan were campaigning on a set of policies that can only be called "Greedy-Republican". They supported the Gay Agenda and they supported Abortion, and they could not articulate a small-government policy position if their life depended on it.
Furthermore, given Ryan's Pro-Amnesty position post-election, and Romney support for Amnesty Pre-Presidential politics, can their be any doubt that this would have been the eventual policy position of the Romney Administration.
Romney-Ryan were simply the Progressive/Corporate Cronyism Trojan Horse of the GOP.
Revelation 3:15-16
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

“The American citizen needs to replace politicians literally...”
Sounds to me like you know who is in charge.

>> PR: No, no, I believe that it was, it would be a mistake to have more government shutdowns.
The guy is a dick as are all that accepted this political conclusion.
I can only account for 4 men that stood fast on the 17% shutdown: Cruz, Lee, Sessions, Paul.
We’re tired of the BS, right? Vote out the RINOs. The half-measures are not working. Do it!

“Is yours Saul Alynski?”
Learn how to spell it before you use it or someone might think you don’t know what you are talking about: Saul Alinsky

>> Wasnt aware two decent men ran.
You were among the minority refusing to support the Primary-Elect clowns, and you caught a lot of vitriol for it. I remember.
“Had Mitt and I Won”, we’d still be dealing with “suck”.

I’ve met the POW pilots.
they are national treasures. Thanks for the link.
Kerry in the same sentence with them is an outrage.

“Explain this to me. What has the Republican Party done to earn my vote?”
What did Obama do to earn your vote?

>> [Norm Lenhart] are as guilty in destroying this country as Obama is
A faulty premise. And I’m not going out of my way to defend NL.
Romney and Ryan are rationalizations for the things you object to.

Thats it in a nutshell. We can all speculate on whatever. But in the end, Neither mitt, nor Ryan, Nor Biden nor Obama had anything but their own interests at heart. None shared conservative ideals. They all shared political ideals.
But we would have still been covered in ‘suck’.

Clinton played to the issue and won some support from military because of this. It is interesting to look back and see that Newsweek had that picture on the cover and it turned out to be a hoax. Also, I didn’t recall that Perot got into it.

“I did not vote for Obama”
Yes you did. By not voting for the Pubs (Romney/Ryan), you effectively voted for Obama, as no other party other than the Pubs could win, and you knew it. So now we have Obama. Pleased with you and those of your purist ilk’s handiwork?

Not as pathetic as your faulty logic or the lack thereof. Thanks again for your hand in making sure Obama is our President.
