Date: May 14th, 2012 12:55 PM Author: Razzmatazz startled roommate address I never understood the frenzied hate for Clinton or Bush (neither of whom I like). Nor do I understand the adulation for Obama and Reagan.
Romney's the first major presidential candidate I actually hate. |

Notice how he comes out in favour of gay marriage now? He had 3 years to do it. Political timing is more important to him than defending people whose rights he feels are being squashed.
Notice how when he had controll of congress the only thing he really passed was a giant transfer payment from the young to the old boomers? |

NOT the case with mitt. this bullying thing is a perfect example. set aside the fact that he was a bully, just look at his reaction. he apologizes, but claims not to remember the incident, when literally everyone else involved not only remembers it but feels great shame about it? he is blatantly lying. |

Date: May 14th, 2012 1:04 PM Author: Razzmatazz startled roommate address Obama isn't so obviously craven. He's a center-left liberal. His inconsistencies are center-left liberal inconsistencies.
Mitt Romney's inconsistencies also veer to extremes. It's not just that he waffles; it's that he takes the most ridiculously strident tone on whatever position he's touting at the moment. That shows the erratic mind of an opportunist, rather than a thoughtful moderate temperament. |

|
Date: May 14th, 2012 1:11 PM Author: Razzmatazz startled roommate address Sure, I don't think much of Obama's "evolution" on gay marriage. But that's a single issue, one I don't care about, rather than a repeated pattern of behavior. And it's not like Obama pulled a Romney by veering to extremes on this issue. He moved from "gays are generally OK, they should have similar civil rights, but I have a more traditional view on marriage" to "gays are generally OK, they should have similar civil rights, I guess that includes marriage too."

and then he follows up saying he's against gay marriage by saying he's in favor of gay adoption, apparently as a way to seem more "moderate." but the net result: gays can adopt kids, but those kids will never be permitted to be raised by married parents.
baffling. |

Date: May 14th, 2012 1:26 PM Author: Twinkling Market Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney on Friday backed away from his support of adoptions by gay couples, saying that he simply “acknowledges” the legality of such adoptions in many states. (…) On Friday,he was asked, in an interview with CBS affiliate WBTV in Charlotte, N.C., how his opposition to gay marriage “squared” with his support for gay adoptions. Romney told anchor Paul Cameron, “Well, actually I think all states but one allow gay adoption, so that’s a position which has been decided by most of the state legislatures, including the one in my state some time ago. So I simply acknowledge the fact that gay adoption is legal in all states but one.” http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/romney-says-hes-fine-with-gay-adoptions-then-flip-flops/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+OTB+%28Outside+The+Beltway+%7C+OTB%29 |

well, of course you do.
by possessing a frenzied hate for a politician you can clearly understand why others feel the same way.
your reasons are no more substantive or extreme than other's reasons for frenzied hate. Its merely that romney speaks directly to your "reasons" in the same way clinton and bush spoke to others. |
