Can't Take it Any Longer

I don't even know where to begin...I am absolutely livid. I love and respect Reagan so very much and have always looked up to his eleventh commandment. I, however, just finished watching the GOP debate in California at the Reagan Library and I can't hold back anymore.

I can't stand Romney....I can't...period. I cannot understand how anyone could respect this man. I had respect for him in the beginning. I have no doubt that he is a very bright man, who has worked very hard in his life. But I honestly cannot see where this man's heart is.

Tonight the four candidates on stage were asked if they thought Reagan (if alive) would endorse them today and why. Romney said "Absolutely he would..." and proceeded to give a LONG Romney answer as to why. How could you possible have the guts to say such a thing when you didn't even vote for Reagan when he was running for President? Look at the video:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=7pVqZzHm3Z4 I just wanted to see Nancy's face as she listened in the audience.

And yes, running a business is difficult and he made progress in many aspects of his life, no doubt. But he honestly believes it makes him more fit to be president than the 22 years of service given by McCain, or the 5 years he got the crap kicked out of him, or the courage he had to risk his career and reputation by supporting the surge? Because that's the vibe Romney puts off...he somehow believes it makes him better.

And the pro-life issue...give me a break. McCain is pro-life and has a strong and consistent conservative record on that issue. Romney just 'out of the blue' changed his mind? I'm not saying you can't change your mind...but that type of change happens when you get married, have children, have grandchildren. At the age of 55, Romney still stood as pro-choice. See for yourself:

It's not only his lack of character, his flip flop, or his ego...it's his genuine heart towards humanity. I've never seen it. Not once have I ever felt this man had a heart...a sense of sympathy for a sick person, a sense of pride for the beautiful country in which we live, or the duty to put others above himself or work towards the greater good. When I saw this link I wanted to cry (http://youtube.com/watch?v=NY6UTnS6Z-A).

Watching the debate, a sense of anger welled up inside of me that I could not even voice. There sat Romney with a smirk on his face while he thought "I'm better than you"...sitting next to a man who gave 22 years of his life to fighting for our freedom, almost died while living five years as a POW, has served many years on our nations Senate, and who almost looks as though he is overcome with emotion when he speaks of how proud he is of the brave men and women fighting for our wonderful country.

It is character, moral, leadership, strict judgment, and love of this fabulous country in which we live that is necessary to lead this nation. This past summer, John Sydney McCain was DOA, and now, he is my miracle. Presidency is his destiny.

We will never surrender...we will stand strong...and we will see victory.

Hey your blog just caught my eye. And actually quite glad to say that I'm happy to see someone in Wisconsin who is voting Republican! Especially since we have a history of being blue. XD

Although, I'm not all to excited to see that you are voting McCain. I personally am a Romney supporter, although I can understand your disdain for Romney.

His answer on Reagan in the last debate was egotistical and quite rude. And it is true that in the past he was quite liberal (weren't we all? X.x). He acknowledges that and has explained that (see his Youtube videos).

I do respect McCain's service towards our country and the pain and suffering he had to endure. But that doesn't make him any more or less qualified to be the President of the United States. He is just as human as Romney is.

We saw in the last debate that McCain flat out lied about Romney's position on the Iraq timetables. Even the most liberal newspapers around had to admit it.

McCain also has a awful temper. He screamed 'F*ck You!' At Texas Sen. John Cornyn, he repeatedly called Pete Domenici (R-NM) An "A**hole", he called Charles Grassley (R-IA) And Called Him A "F*cking Jerk." Or he will tone it done a bit with questioners and say, "Thanks for the question, you little jerk."

McCain has just as many faults as Romney.

BTW, McCain doesn't support medicinal marijuana either.

This is him denying the same man that ambushed Romney.

The national media appears ready to continue giving Barack Obama, voted the most liberal member of the U.S. Senate by the non-partisan National Journal, a free pass. It's critical that the new media, which includes us, take a very hard look at Senator Obama, an extremely flawed candidate. I'm trying to do that, and I hope you will also.

Michael Barone's The Almanac of American Politics, 2008, p. 539, says the following of Obama as an Illinois State Senator: "He voted against providing medical care for fetuses who survived abortions." So much for his "universal health care."

For my own blogs, I'm doing rsearch on the relationship between George Soros and his political funding of -- and ideological influence on -- Barack Obama. A Hungarian who emigrated to American and made billions of dollars in finance and currency speculation, Soros, his family, and business asocicates have contributed huge sums to Barack Obama in his senatorial and presidential campaigns. (See the "Obama" financial sections on http://opensecrets.org, especially the "top contributors" segment for 2006 and 2008.)

Soros is the financial "godfather" of Moveon.org, the nation's largest political hate group. He's also a fan of Hamas, the Palestine-centered terrorist group. On Feb. 1, 2008, Moveon.org, an organization that claims 3 million-plus left-leaning members, gave its first endorsement to a presidential candidate: Barack Obama. The vast amount of money that's recently poured into Obama's coffers apparently has come from Moveon-types. Moveon.org members and Soros have been pressuring Obama to take more extreme positions on the economy and the war on terrorism.

My columns on Soros, Moveon, and Obama will begin appearing on Sunday, February 17 at: http://camp2008victorya.blogspot.com.
