This is fun...who said what: 1. On abortion: “I will preserve and protect a woman’s right to choose and am devoted and dedicated to honoring my word in that regard.” 2. “I am fighting for an overturning of Roe v. Wade.” 3. On gay rights: “As we seek to establish full equality for America’s gay and lesbian citizens, I will provide more effective leadership than my opponent.” 4. On the 2009 economic stimulus: “No time, nowhere, no how.” 5. “There is need for economic stimulus. Americans have lost about $11 trillion in net worth. That translates into about $400 billion a year less spending that they’ll be doing. ... Government can help make that up in a very difficult time. And that’s one of the reasons why I think a stimulus program is needed.” 6. On climate science: “I believe that climate change is occurring — the reduction in the size of global ice caps is hard to ignore. I also believe that human activity is a contributing factor.” 7. “Do I think the world’s getting hotter? Yeah, I don’t know that, but I think that it is. ... I don’t know if it’s mostly caused by humans. ... What I’m not willing to do is spend trillions of dollars on something I don’t know the answer to.” 8. On health care: “It’s critical to insure more people in this country. It doesn’t make sense to have 45 million people without insurance. It’s not good for them because they don’t get good preventative care ... but it’s not good for the rest of the citizens either, because if people aren’t insured, they go to the emergency room for their care when they get very sick. That’s expensive. They don’t have any insurance to cover it. So guess who pays? Everybody else.” 9. On financial bailouts: “The idea of trying to bail out an institution to protect the shareholders or to protect a certain interest group, that’s a terrible idea. And that shouldn’t happen.” 10. “TARP got paid back, and it kept the financial system from collapsing. ... Well, it was the right thing to do.”
Oh oh oh!!! I'll play 1. Romney 2. Romney 3. Romney 4. Romney 5. Romney 6. Romney 7. Romney 8. Romney 9. Romney 10. Romney
It humors me that the original author attempted to show conflicting statements...I'm not seeing them really. Romney certainly isn't the best guy in the world to be president I'm sure..but his policies are the lesser of two evils IMO.
I have never seen anyone who lies quite like Romney does, except for Richard Nixon. Granted that both Romney and Obama exaggerate. Granted that both Romney and Obama make promises they cannot keep. Granted that both Romney and Obama change their positions on certain issues at times. It's just going to be more of the same until November. Whereas Nixon got away with lying for a long time, Romney might get away with it for now as well. At the moment however Romney has chosen to become a one trick pony, focusing all his undeliverable promises on The Affordable Healthcare Act. That will probably be his one trick through November. It hides all his other problems with his Repub base, such as that he and the Repubs are the original authors of principles imbedded in The Affordable Healthcare Act. Whatever floats your boat. And that of your constituents.
We are in trouble. The answer is not out there. Problem is someone needs to pay the piper for the way we have been living and no one wants it to be their generation or group.
^ That. Barry Sotoro and his choom gang of drug users are coming to the end of this failed experiment. Barry was a novelty act. That novelty has worn off.
The RNC is in trouble. Yes. But cheer up. Things will look better for the RNC in 2016. That's when you all will be up against Hillary. If you can't beat her you can't beat anybody. :D
That's pretty much the story of this election. All I've been hearing is "He/She is the lesser of 2 evils". What a sad state of affairs this country is in!! It's a lose, lose situation. Just how bad do you want to lose?
November is a long way away. Right now, my highest priority is scouting for the bowhunting season which opens in 2 weeks here. Packing my gear now. On my way in the early morning. Goodbye all.
