Strange bedfellows
« on: September 24, 2012, 04:11:08 AM »
Mormon Bishop and a Casino owner.

"The source of Adelson’s huge campaign contributions would appear to create a conflict with Romney’s Mormon convictions. The official website of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints states: “The Church opposes gambling in any form, including government-sponsored lotteries.”

But hey! Romney is 'pragmatic'.  What that means is that he will sacrifice his principles for power, and sell his supporters down the river for the same reason.

Many already realize this but hope that electing Romney will offer an oportunity to get agressive against the recent and not so recent dirrection of the Republican party before Obama sinks the ship.
 
I believe things will have to get much worse before very many voters will "get up in arms". We are too affable, "someone else will take care if the problem" as we float down the River of no Return. ear

Perhaps it is just that they both share the same values of capitalism?   ;) 
 
Going by this "logic", no one should vote for Romney unless they are Mormons, and no one should vote for Obama unless they belong to one of the religions he claims he belongs to. This thread is just a lame attempt at a cheap shot at Romney that has no basis in logical thinking. Only bias..........

LOL.   

It's 'important information' and headline news for you unbiased  'hussein'... 'dislikers' when Obama's contradictions are pointed out, and a 'cheap shot' when someone points outs Romney's idiosyncrasies. 

Who doesn't like a cheap shot? That's why I shoot Russian mil-surp. 
Putin sent me a whole boat load of it.   Very nice late production light ball 7.62x54R.  There was a note with it. It said 'Thank you comrade Rio Grande, it's not easy to find sleepers who snooze as well as you do.'
