Romney is attacked by GOP for getting his state near-universal health care

So much for the republican party .

Jesus said that man cannot serve two masters -- but if Romney is elected President, he will have to serve two conflicting oaths.
American Presidents swear an oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution
of the United States. However, this Presidential Oath is in direct conflict with Romney's sacred oath to his Mormon Church -- a blood oath which puts
Romney's life, fortune and obedience at the unrestricted service of his Church. This obedience is defined by the Church's Living Prophet, the
President of the Mormon Church and -- as they believe -- the literal Voice of God on earth.

According to author Mike Moody, "One of the LDS Church's basic tenets
is a prophecy from founder and First Prophet Joseph Smith that in the latter days, the U.S. Constitution will 'hang by a thread as fine as silk
fiber' until a Mormon leader rides in on his White Horse to save the U.S. and the Constitution -- then use his control of the United States to set up
a world-wide theocracy, one based on the clearly unorthodox beliefs of the Church of Latter Day Saints."

Author Mike Moody, himself a 7th Generation Mormon from a family of Church-founding patriarchs - men who served Joseph Smith and Brigham Young
as they created this remarkable "church" -- uses his both insider knowledge of the LDS Church and his long-time personal ties to his one-time college
fraternity brother, Mitt Romney, to point out the essential conflict between Romney's sacred Oath to the Church and the oath he seeks to take as
President.

what isnthis left wing fox ?
I am a staunch progressive liberal who lives in Massachusetts and Mitt Romney who was our governor did a rather good job, he ran with aplatform of it was a womans right to choose (abortion) fiscal responsibility and yes we did conquer the healthcare debate with his guidance.
Bain Capitol Mitt Romney's investment company is a model fro what investors should do. He and his partners saved more companies than they destroyed saved more jobs than they lost and returned many companies to profitability that would have gone under. I do not defend republicans often but here I will draw the line. The only thing MItt Romney was guilty of was reversing positions of some issues when he decieded to run for president (a common practice) but other than that he and his partners at Bain Capitol are good people and he was agood governor. So take your BS and stick it where the sun don't shine. And screw the rest of the GOP they should be elevating this guy, he would be their best chance in 2016. Obama will be re elected.

This is just too precious. Romney was the only Republican candidate who caused me any concern as a serious contender to the Democrats. He was the only candidate with solid credentials for managing an ecomomy -- substantially superior to either Obama OR Hillary Clinton.

Once the Republicans rejected his candidacy I knew the race was over so long as McCain did not somehow pick Romney up as his vice-presidential running mate. I fetl that was EXTREMELY unlikely because I have met and spoken with Senator McCain on a number of occasions, and I knew that Romney's character and personality were just too strong to sit easily alongside McCain's.

Unless there is a Republican "dark horse" waiting in the wings somewhere, Romney would STILL be their most competitive choice. I just haev a hard time seeing their evangelical Christian wing lining up in support of a Mormon candidate...that is sad because I think a campaign between Romney and Obama would be fascinating.

Where is his birth certificate?

Few Americans know the full story about Mitt Romney, an Italian national who has masqueraded as an American citizen since 1968, the year his father, George, smuggled his Italian mistress, Phoebe, into the country, along with their love child, Mitt.

The elder Romney enrolled Mitt in an intensive language and cultural absorption course so that the boy could eventually pass as a U.S. citizen, and Mitt did not disappoint his father. Before three months had passed, Mitt was cruising high school parking lots, picking up cheerleaders and regaling them with his dark, Latin good looks and newly-acquired teen slang: words such as “far out,” “right on,” and “up tight” spewed from his lips as if he had been born here.

Mitt avoided the pitfalls of marijuana, but he fell victim to an addiction to Beeman’s Gum and Nehi Orange Soda. By the time the 70s rolled around, he was as toothless as a ninety-year-old, and he started shunning friends in an attempt to hide his periodontal misery. When George Romney, then living in Somalia, found out that his son was missing out on the social scene, he jetted home and took the young man in for comprehensive dental reconstruction, which rendered Mitt’s mouth almost normal.

The emotional scars were harder to hide, however, and when Mitt flunked out of Grambling State, it was less because of his low I.Q. than the fact that he was still ashamed to let people see his gums. An extended visit with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in Calcutta proved to be just what he needed to regain his confidence and poise.

In the 1980s, Mitt rocketed to riches as the head of a large stocking manufacturing firm, where he endeared himself to his employees by walking through the plant with a pair of argyles on his hands. Romney’s hand puppet shows are still talked about in the little hamlet of Framingham, Massachusetts.

Following his loss in the presidential primaries of 2008, Mitt returned to Italy, where he renewed his love affair with Francesca de Rimini, an older woman who wears her bifocals to bed. Even though aides have urged him to break it off, Mitt stands by his soul mate, and in a recent interview reiterated his commitment to bringing decent pasta to American restaurants.

“It’s not the taste that matters,” says Romney. “It’s the texture.”

Mitt is coy about his future presidential plans, saying he prefers the languorous Italian nights to the hurly-burly of the American political scene. However, when asked, point-blank, if he plans to run in 2012, he stated, “No Italian has been elected president of the United States……yet!”
