You know what I think is odd? Dumb ass questions that people like you should know better than to ask. You are btter than that.

Yeah, yeah, I know. But I’m vacuous ya know?

bwaahahahaha

Well behind.

Guys, really not worth the effort. Anyone who has paid attention to Hollowpoint (and yes the name is a give away) knows he only has one issue. Guns.
JackStraw on July 19, 2007 at 10:44 PM

Yes, his desire to ban certain guns based largely on cosmetic appearances is a part of my problem with him. Let’s see, I’ve had quite a bit of bourbon at this point, but let me see if there’s anything else… nope- can’t think of anything.

Well, except for Romney’s Big Government, forced-at-gunpoint health care plan for the US that will add yet another entitlement program to the tax rolls.

And his Big Government education position; an area in which the federal government should have no role.

And his being for abortion and against Roe v Wade before he decided to follow in Daddy’s footsteps and run for the nomination.

And raising taxes and fees, refusing to pledge not to raise taxes until- you guessed it- he planned on running for President.

And distancing himself from Reagan and the Republican party before he named Reagan a hero and portrayed himself a conservative… just in time!

And being for “age appropriate” sex ed before he was against it (guess when that change came about?).

And his claim that he’d appoint constructionist judges while simultaneously supporting unconstitutional positions (oops, I at least partially alluded to guns again; sorry).

And spending money on “global warming” research before he was against it at a rather opportune time (wink, wink).

And his lack of electability, being very similar to Bush in his Big Government “compassionate conservatism” and politically connected, weathly upbringing (which he would be attacked on). Plus his failure to gain popularity in six months despite spending 9 million of his own money, his too-slick, pandering style, and (unfair though it might be) his religion, which will turn many off. And of course he blew a lead over Ted Kennedy to lose the Senate election.

But yeah, it’s just about guns. And I know- he campaigned one way to get elected in liberal MA, but supposedly governed another. Makes me feel so much better about him.

But talking to you is pointless, since he’s your local boy, and nothing he says, has done or will do is going to change your mind because you’re going to back the MA candidate no matter what. Don’t talk to me about backers of other candidates being uncritical of those they support.

Now on to that great and brilliant KICK-ASS PATTON SPEECH.
This speech is a must read,no I’m not kidding,don,t you
dare laugh.This speech to me isn’t a AMERICAN GUNG-HO.
Rather the exact thing thats going on now.
Read what he has to say about cowards,especially if they
were allowed to get back to the States.

You know what I think is odd? Dumb ass questions that people like you should know better than to ask. You are btter than that.

On the one hand, Romney is branded a freak, a cultist, because of his Mormon religion. A religion that preaches abstinence and morality.

On the other hand, there is Rudy. And Fred.

The question was a general one, should sex education be given to age appropriate kids in school. There’s no nuance needed. Don’t try to spin this into Mitt wanted sex education for kindergarteners. You can’t have it both ways. He is either a Mormon freak or Obama. He is also the first Gov in MA to roll out a huge abstinence program. Look it up.

I hope that this election will come down to the actual conservative lives and policies of not only the Republicans but the Democrats. That includes Fred, Rudy, Hillary and Obama.

President Romney works for me.

JackStraw on July 19, 2007 at 10:44 PM

So, back to Mitt!….what do you think of this 2002 questionaire he filled out where he was for age appropriate sex ed in public schools?

In his defense, it did not nuance the question to kindergarten, so he does have some coverage on it. I’d like to see some other quotes from him expanding on this to get some context for just what grades he thought sex ed was acceptable for. My guess is that since he was pushing an abstinence only sex ed program, it must have started some where around 6th grade or later?

Also, if he felt sex ed at any younger age was unthinkable, he may have assumed the age-appropriate program would be in that general area and not all the way down to K to 3rd or 4th. Maybe.

Romney was criticized by Massachusetts pro-choice groups when he began to push an abstinence-heavy focus on sex education

Guys, really not worth the effort. Anyone who has paid attention to Hollowpoint (and yes the name is a give away) knows he only has one issue. Guns.

He doesn’t care that even Reagan disagrees with his position. He doesn’t care about facts or honesty. He doesn’t even understand the Constitution. Guns.

Go Fred!

You people better wake up and stop doing the Dems jobs for them. Support your candidate to the hilt but avoid bashing the others and let the best man win. That way, you can back the eventual nominee with a clear conscience. I for won will do nothing, no matter how small, that may result in the disaster of Billary.

I support all the candidates (except Ron Paul) and will back the eventual winner. To do otherwise at this point in history, is unthinkable to me.

Hollowpoint on July 19, 2007 at 9:15 PM

I see no reason to trust him

The problem with your arguments against Romney are that they all look into the future to assume things Romney would do or what the effects of his policies would be (according to you) instead of just looking at his actual record.

he was for “age appropriate” sex ed before he was against it: link.

Read the article in full and it is clear that Obama was definately talking about small children while Romney was asked if there should be sex ed at all.

He won in MA by running away from Reagan and the Republican party and as a “moderate” (read: RINO).

How come opponents amunition seems to come from campaigns, or edited soundbytes? It seems opponents hope a general ignorance of his actual term as govenor, persists.

Or “Patton”?

Go Fred!

JackStraw on July 19, 2007 at 9:01 PM

I win.

Don’t tell Allahpundit because in his eyes, Mitt’s tilting at windmills. The difference is, Mitt lived it.
TheBigOldDog on July 19, 2007 at 9:07 PM

Mitt lived it, flipped then flopped on it… he was for “age appropriate” sex ed before he was against it: link.

Don’t worry though, JackStraw will be along shortly to explain that this really wasn’t yet another flip-flop.

Don’t tell Allahpundit because in his eyes, Mitt’s tilting at windmills. The difference is, Mitt lived it. He knows exactly what Obama is talking about. And so does David Parker who wound up in jail over it.

I don’t care who helped him write it- I’d rather not have Big Brother tell me at gunpoint what kind of health insurance I have to carry, thankyouverymuch. I’d also not like to see yet another entitlement program that will inevitably balloon to cost hundreds of billions as Mitt’s would.

You’re a perfect Fred voter. You have no idea what any of the candidates acutally represent. You don’t even want to know. You learn and speak in sound bites. And you’ll be shocked, SHOCKED, when your candidate turns out to not be the guy who represents what you think he does.

Go Fred!

Once again, you just don’t know what you are talking about. You bet it’s mandatory. It says you have to have health care or you forfeit tax write-offs. He, for now the 80th time, wrote this in conjuction with the very conservative Heritage Foundation.

And what allowed the Clinton Gun Ban (to be renamed the Romney Gun Ban if he has his way) to pass court muster? Liberal judges. I’m to believe Romney would appoint constructionist judges who would overturn his own gun ban and health care mandatates? I don’t think so.
