LOL. How about freedom to provide a superior product at a lower cost.

What’s not to like?

I believe the People’s Republic of China has that covered.

Romney didn’t do anything in MA to make it more conservative. That’s why he has a big goofy grin on his face looking up at his buddy Ted Kennedy as he signs ROmneyCare into law. He was happy to pass that legislation. There are a lot of other liberal states where REpublican governors don’t roll over for Democrats, like Scott Walker for example. Romney is no Scott Walker.

Scott Walker is awesome. He does have a Republican House and Senate though. That is hardly a fair comparison to the state that gave us Barney Frank, John Kerry, and Ted Fricken Kennedy. I’d encourage you to look into how many of Romney’s vetoes were overridden.

How does Santorum helping Specter, expanding Medicare and Dept of Education, voting for Sonia Sotomayer and pro-union legislation make Pennsylvania or America more conservative?

So because he comes from a state that does not support it, he voted against it…while personally being against it.

Huh…Isn’t that what Romney did with healthcare and all this other crap. How come Santorum and everybody attacks Romney for stuff he vetoed in MA, which the legislature bypassed…but give Santorum a pass. MA wanted Romneycare, and Romney did everything in his power to make it more conservative. How can Santorum get away with explaining himself that way, and not Romney? What makes him more conservative than Romney…if your behavior depends on the attitude of the people you are governing? What makes you think he would do anything different if he were governor in MA?

Can anybody give me an answer.

Its simple. Romney is a RINO and his flip-flops prove it. Santorum is a true conservative and his flip-flops prove it. Its very similar to how Gingrich is a true conservative and his flip-flops don’t count.

“And you need to remember, I was from the state of Pennsylvania. State of Pennsylvania does not have a right to work law. The state legislature and our governor for a long time had rules in place that were inconsistent with right to work. And I wasn’t, as United States senator, representing the states of Pennsylvania going to go down and by federal vote change the law on the state. I believe the state has the right. If they want a union dues requirement, that the state should be able to do that. As a president, I have a very different point of view.

Santorum cast a controversial vote in the House in 1993 when he was starting a campaign for the Senate that aligned him with Democrats and the Clinton administration. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported: “Santorum broke ranks with fellow GOP members by backing a federal law to prohibit the hiring of permanent replacements for striking workers.”

The Romney camp has yet to focus on this issue, but in many ways, given the recklessness of the president’s National Labor Relations Board appointees, it is a more timely issue than earmarks.

Ahahahahahaha! I read that as

“Would ANYBODY show me the ‘strong Unicorn support’ for Rick Santorum, in this primary?”

And thought you were an Obama supporter worried that the Rainbows and Unicorns were shifting sides. This is what happens when I drink way the hell too much coffee.

I probably shouldn’t blog or participate in any online forums today. I’m not fit for human company.

I can’t explain it. Maybe it’s an FDR or Kennedy thing.

My mom no longer votes. It’s hard for her to get around. And she despises everything the Dems stand for. But if she could vote, she would vote Democrat. It’s FDR for her. She grew up during the depression and still believes he saved the world.

predator on February 11, 2012 at 12:24 PM
YES. FDR conned a whole generation. Without his progressive nonsense the ‘Great Depression’ would have lasted a couple years.

slickwillie2001 on February 11, 2012 at 12:37 PM

Exactly. Proof, one of the most challangeing and difficult poltical remedies: Passage of the 22nd Amendment

What I tried (unsuccessfully) to get across, is that the Union Bosses know damn well that “President” Rick Santorum isn’t going to support ANY of that ‘pro-Union’ legislation he signed as Senator.
He’ll be the same as Gov Scott Walker, to them.

listens2glenn on February 11, 2012 at 12:46 PM

By that logic – the people who support Obamacare aren’t supporting Romney so…we don’t have to talk about Romneycare anymore?

I was also thinking about “The Primary Devolution”, but it sounded too much like a “Big Bang Theory” episode title.

“The Thread Usurpation Intoxication Game”?

Heh.
