 |
|
From Mitt Romney's statement leaving the presidential race:
"If I fight on in my campaign, all the way to the convention, I would forestall the launch of a national campaign and make it more likely that Senator Clinton or Obama would win. And in this time of war, I simply cannot let my campaign, be a part of aiding a surrender to terror."
Don't you love the rhetoric? This reminds me of some right wing talk show host in 2004 who told his listeners, "Bin Laden would vote for John Kerry."
Can an al-Qaeda endorsement be far behind?

No no won't all those Romeny delegates go running to Ron Paul? Oh wait, the NWO will stop them.

| Yep, look for renewed calls from Clinton supporters for Obama to drop out. Nothing new there. |

| Romney, for one, believes the politics of fear is still a viable strategy. We'll have to wait and see if McCain does. |

| A vote for Romney ( if he was viable ) would be a vote for theocratic fascism. That's about equivilant to terror at home from within, so I'd actually chose a surrender to terror over Romney... |

Do you expect them to accuse Obama of "surrendering to terror?" |

Yep, it doesn't surprise me. Republicans will say or do anything to win. They are desperate, even desperate enough to lie about where Obama's money is coming from. |

As far as terror or the various Middle East wars that the neocons have started and plan to start, there is no difference between McCain and Clinton. They will both stay in Iraq, they will both attack Iran if possible. McCain will take a more bellicose line and hit softer than his big talk. Clinton will take a softer line in the election campaign, then she'll have to prove she's a hard hitting neocon if elected. No difference.
The one big difference for HillBilly is corruption. She was the bag lady in the corruption scheme in Arkansas that saw millions in bribes washed through the Rose Law Firm while Bill did the favors. Prior to her being the rainmaking half of their Kleptocratic marriage, Bill and Hill combined didn't make enough money to buy a house. Both were failed loser laywers in a backwater life in a backwater town in a backwater state. Her first $100,000 bribe, the one that let them buy their first house, was $100,000 paid by Tyson's Foods and disguised as commodities trading profits.
McCain is equally evil with Hillary, but more honest.
The Democrats have a chance to nominate someone who offers hope and honesty in Obama. He's not much on policy issues, but he has at least a chance of being better than McCain or HillBilly just because he'll bring hope, new blood and some openness. Perhaps in an Obama administration they'll listen to some actual experts before they act and occasionally do the right thing. |

How does a country surrender to a noun? Do they have a surrender signing ceremony on the decks of the yacht owned by the CEO or Websters Dictionary?
How stupid is that phrase? The "War on terror"? Why retract the "ism"? Stupid stupid stupid. |

Dave, put down the soju long enough to write a coherent sentence. After all, Clinton IS a Democrat, right?
And yes, thanks for the chance to clear up where Obama's money is coming from. Everyone, Dave wants everyone to please note that this money is not coming from these professions but from people IN those professions.

Dumb overstatement by Romeny but the Republicans are better on national defense than the democrats.
some of the other stuff he said in his speech was pretty good. |

From the lawyers of course. They are worried about tort reform. |

Yeah, but its from individual lawyers so, according to Dave, it doesn't count.  |
