Re: Romney Supporters

CC1, it's really not fair to attack Bro. Joe's intellect.

Some people can see behind the smokescreen.

As for socialism...Romney is not against it. There is proof right back in his home state.

I is one thing to think Romney is too liberal or not conservative enough. It is something else to claim there is no difference between Romney and Obama.

That is either ignorance or being intellectually dishonest.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Re: Romney Supporters

Will Romney write executive orders rescinding most or all of Obama's destructive executive orders?

It is a ........ shoot appointing any judge but at least with a Republican appointing them you have a chance of them ending up conservative where you are guaranteed they are liberal if a Democrat does. Keep in mind all of these federal judicial appointments are for life.


Those are just the tip of the iceberg in differences.

I really think your question is extraordinarily childlike. If you honestly don't see significaant differences between these two candidates and their philosophies I really don't know what to say other than I am shocked at your lack of intellect.

Is Mitt as conservative as I would like? Of course not. Is he a lot more conservative that Obama? You bet your sweet bippy!
Superficial garbage.

(by the way Obama has held a private sector job: In 1983 he worked for Business International Corp., a New York-based multinational business counseling firm.)

Mitt is what we call a moderate republican. The policies he wishes to implement have no substance and superficially they change very little of the current policies in which our dear esteemed President has implemented.

I'll list some facts for you:

Number one contributor to Romney: Goldman Sachs
Number two contributor to Obama: Goldman Sachs

Obama for individual mandate on healthcare
Romney for individual mandate on healthcare

Romney supports the same sanctions and handle of all affairs in regards to Syria, Pakistan conflict, and issues regarding Iran. (The man has no idea what he's doing in foreign policy having had no experience, thus the similarities to Obama in this area.)

When Mitty boy was running for state senate in '94 he decided then he was for abortion. Committed he said. Unwavering he said. In '02 when he ran for governor, he basically said "well I'm against abortion personally, but I will support a woman's right to choose." Now, as he aims for the republican nomination, he's pro-life, and supports it vigorously.

The list continues, but you get the point.

In my opinion if Romney gets in, it'd be just as bad as if obama stayed in.

Ron Paul 2012.

Give me reasons other than by voting for him, you are voting Obama out. It's not a good enough reason imo.

Give me something spectacular that he can accomplish for our country.

Do not talk about Obama, Bush, Clinton, Reagan or any other president. They are not relevant.

Convince me.
He is an American. And only an idiot would vote BO four more years unless they also want to see America destroyed. IMO

Oh but it is.

Why do you keep wanting to protectvBO?

America’s downfall did not start with Barak Obama. We had “Americans” dedicated to bringing to this country to it’s knees and it started decades ago. Read history about Eisenhower, Jefferson, Truman on the net. You will be surprised.

Sure..we found out after the election. What you gonna do if Romney turns out to be just as big a liar as Obama? What you going to do when he continues Obama’s policies as did every president since Bush Sr. ? You won't be able to blame it on Obama.

Esther, No it is not relevant to this thread. I deliberately started two threads for the sole purpose of people giving me relevant reasons why I should vote for each of the two potential candidates.

I explicitly stated *Do not talk about Obama, Bush, Clinton, Reagan or any other president. They are not relevant.*

I want to know only the reasons why I should vote for Romney. I want his merits. I want to know his qualities. And in the other thread, I wanted to know only the reasons why I should vote for Obama..his merits...his qualities.

I think CC1 accused somebody else here of being intellectually dishonest. I think it is intellectually dishonest to vote for the lesser of two evils....to vote somebody out by voting for someone else.

What happened to the american people taking an honest look at the virtues and the flaws of each candidate and what they say they will do and voting on their merits instead of voting one out?

The problem is that the american people have been so dumbed down that they do not hold our elected critters accountable for the job they do. We read stupid polls reflecting the percentage of people who approve/disapprove the president's job performance. Yet, nobody does anything about it when the job approval ratings get below 30%. We are stuck with a low performance president and we walk away saying....I'm a gonna vote em out next year and nothing is done by the next president to amend the damage that was done.

We do not demand Congress to rescind unconstitutional executive orders. For that ...we are reduced to voting the lesser of two evils or to vote against one without even measuring the merits of the candidates worth to the job he is asking to occupy.

Me protecting BO? That’s funny.

I want him gone too...but it is not wise to vote another dolt into office just to get one out.
