"My two partners in thought-crime" LOL awesome.

@sensfaninohio He has experience with company's the laws & regulation problems, on and on.... Do you want someone who's learned and have experience, or someone who just acts like he's perfect and has all the answers? Does Cain have Romney's depth of experience, anyone else? NO. So what he improved some of his views! There's hardly a dang thing liberal about him otherwise, other than direct lies. Fact is, he's the most qualified for the job conservatives shouldn't be acting like liberals.

[leeuniverse]

@sensfaninohio Bottom line, there's basically NOTHING liberal about Romney. What little there was before, does not exist. Abortion bills came before him as Gov, he vetoed them, changed his beliefs concerning public freedom on the issue. He had a health care problem in his state, he looked for ways to solve it, some things were put in he didn't want, some things he would do different. But he worked to fix a problem, and it did, a Private sector solution, not the LIE that it's Obamacare.

@sensfaninohio So you're calling me & Ronald Reagon a "liar in the worst form", we who also used to once be against abortion personally, but for public freedom of choice for abortion, then realized that the duty of the state was to protect life, thus changed our views to be against public freedom for abortion??? Our beliefs never ultimately changed, we were always personally against abortion. What changed is our level of "tolerance" of "freedom" for public choice in relation to abortion.

Pro-Life ... REALLY?? In an August 21, 2007 interview Romney stated if a state wants to kill unborn children, that's fine with him.

Authorizing Tax-Funded Abortion: On April 12, 2006 Romney signed Massachusetts' government health care plan that from the start has provided taxpayer funds even for what are called "elective" abortions, killing unborn children without even the facade of the typical though invalid medical excuses common in tax-funded abortion laws.

@leeuniverse - Believe in freedom at a personal level and what?? Oh you did not just go there! This just shows that Romney is a LIAR in the worst form - to his own beliefs!! If he really is "personally" for freedom then sells out his public, that is what we already have in Washington Dork Central ... 500+ sell-outs! Even if I can't approve of EVERYTHING Ron Paul stands for, at least I know he doesn't back-peddle like YOUR man has and like I showed IN HIS OWN WORDS which you still can't deny!

[sensfaninohio]

@leeuniverse - Incorrect, Mr. Liberal Bully. Reagan was conned into voting for Amnesty. It was not a "change of heart" or of policy. And I am still waiting on your proof, especially of this "pro life" award. So where's the proof? All I see is - yet again - YOUR opinion. Not a shred of evidence! And don't go to his own website ... that's just as bogus as you are being anything but a RINO-loving supporter of a RINO - a liar - a scammer who thinks Christians will fall for anything!

[leeuniverse]

@sensfaninohio Anyway, there is fact, and then there is truth. Using fact to lie is still lying. It's perfectly normal for someone to believe in "freedom" at a public level concerning abortion, and then to change. It's perfectly normal for a person to be charitable and believe illegals should get in line, and have the chance to be legal, on and on. Shall I go on? Every issue, I will show you how you misrepresent thus LIE about Romney, even clear lies, such as the hired illegals claim.

[leeuniverse]

@sensfaninohio So what? If Ronald Reagan was running today you would be doing the same to him, and other than Lincoln, he was our best and most conservative. Like Romney, he was personally against abortion, but believed people had a choice. He changed, I changed, Romney changed. Romney wouldn't have gotten Pro-Life awards if he was really pro-abortion. Thus, you lie. Reagan did the same thing, people already here illegally, they should have the opportunity to get legal as anyone else.

I would post the video links as irrefutable proof, but YouTube does not allow links to be posted inside of comments so do a YouTube search for Romney on Abortion - 2002 from OpenSourcePolitics and Mitt Romney: Supports Amnesty For Illegal Immigrants from BillHemmer1964. The first is a 2002 Gubernatorial Debate - the second is from Meet The Press.

Now ... FOOL ... I will not hold my breath in waiting on your apology because I can clearly see you "think" you know everything. Wrong!
