Check out the 27 page shocking report about Romney at www.massresistance.org This is a must read for anyone even thinking about supporting this fraud. He has sold out conservatives for years in that state. Why does anyone believe anything he says?<BR/><BR/>SteveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18684622.post-1164664795373060192006-11-27T16:59:00.000-05:002006-11-27T16:59:00.000-05:00Mitt Romney: For legal abortions before he was aga...Mitt Romney: For legal abortions before he was against them.<BR/><BR/>**“Romney ran against Senator Edward M. Kennedy in 1994. During a debate, Romney declared: ‘I believe that abortion should be safe and legal in this country. I have since the time that my mom took that position when she ran in 1970 as a US Senate candidate. I believe that since Roe v. Wade has been the law for 20 years we should sustain and support it.’ "<BR/><BR/>- Boston Globe, 3/2/2006<BR/><BR/>**In 2002, Romney responded to the National Abortion Rights Action League's candidate survey: ''I respect and will protect a woman's right to choose. This choice is a deeply personal one. Women should be free to choose based on their own beliefs, not mine and not the government's. The truth is, no candidate in the governor's race in either party would deny women abortion rights." Notably, Romney refused to answer the candidate questionnaire sent to him by Massachusetts Citizens for Life.<BR/><BR/>- Boston Globe, 7/3/2005Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18684622.post-1164660635738596292006-11-27T15:50:00.000-05:002006-11-27T15:50:00.000-05:00OK, so we know that you aren't a fan of Mitt Romne...OK, so we know that you aren't a fan of Mitt Romney--now please share with the rest of us what your bias is.<BR/><BR/>It's obviously not due to his stance on the issues or we would have seen a gradual increase in the level of animosity as you learned more about him. It must be due to the fact that you have another dog in the hunt--likely John McCain.<BR/><BR/>Bias isn't a problem as long as you admit it before attempting to present "the facts" as a neutral voice.<BR/><BR/>Yes, Romney has changed his stance on the abortion issue, but there is a difference between running on a platform, and taking a side on an issue. Romney never "campaigned" as a pro-choice candidate, he merely took a stand on the issue when questioned about the subject and that stance was more Libertarian, than pro-choice. <BR/><BR/>What's the difference you ask? A candidate's administration typically reflects those he or she campaign on, while the stances one takes are usually issues a candidtate will only act on if presented with the issue by someone else--like the legislature. In the case of abortion, Romney who has always been personally pro-life, knew that the Massachusetts legislature was never going to present a bill to him to eliminate abortions so it was a political stance he could stomach. If you look at the record, you will notice that he promised not to change the abortion laws in Mass. and when the legislature attempted to relax the limits on abortions, he vetoed them.<BR/><BR/>Taking a somewhat "Pro Choice" stance is admittedly not a perfect conservative record, but there is no doubt where he stands on the subject now. He's not just taking a pro-life stance nowadays, he's actually campaigning on the issue. You can expect his administration to act that way.<BR/><BR/>As for gay marriage, he has never supported gay marriage--though he supports civil unions as an alternative (as this doesn't weaken the sanctity of marriage) and he runs on a decidedly anti-descrimination platform with regard to homosexuals. His approach reflects a "hate the sin, love the sinner" ideaology.<BR/><BR/>There is no reason why any conservative couldn't support where Mitt Romney stands on the issues.SC Conservativehttp://www.scforromney.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18684622.post-1164645969715668022006-11-27T11:46:00.000-05:002006-11-27T11:46:00.000-05:00I care about your fantasy football!!I care about your fantasy football!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18684622.post-1164645064810474002006-11-27T11:31:00.000-05:002006-11-27T11:31:00.000-05:00Keep in mind the Boston Media hates Mitt Romney.
