Wow, he is so blatently lying. How can a person running for President not know what the NDAA is? Lol.

Do you really think he is clueless or is he just trying to change the subject because he knows he has to stick to an agenda provided by Goldman Sachs who is financing his campaign? I don't know how he can sleep at night.

At least Woodrow Wilson admitted (after it was too late of course) that going along with and signing the Federal Reserve Act was the worst thing he could have done to the country. I wonder if all our other prior presidents ever "get religion" after their term is over and are sorry for all the harm they've done to Americans.

I don't think I'd get a minute of sleep if I was president and was forced to follow an agenda from special interests if it meant starting wars and putting troops in harms way. I'd feel guilty as all get-out carrying on and wating taxpayers money on secret galas and multi-million dollar vacations when Americans were struggling and the economy was dragging at best. Geeze Louise! I guess maybe not having a conscience or any sense of ethics is a pre-requisite for becoming a "typical" American President who has had to follow an agenda contrary to what they promised during their campaigns. It really is PATHETIC!

I think trying to sell these lies in a campaign is certainly just as bad as doing the opposite of what you promised your constituents after you are elected..and it may be WORSE. If he is like this now, what might he be like as PRESIDENT?!?

Translation: Romney believes as long as the US is at war it is ok to suspend the US Constitution. Fact: the US has been under a state of emergency signed by every POTUS for the last 80+ years just so they could subvert the US Constitution. Hello!

Not certain why this is shocking. Did everyone forget that Gov. Romney signed the Mass. AWB just days before the Clinton AWB was scheduled to sunset? Romney never met a "big governement" control and infringement upon the US Constitution he didn't like.

He at least lost one supporter with his answer to the question (the questioner) FOR SURE and probably anyone else if they have a clue as to what the NDAA is. By the way, if you don't know, it allows the government to indefinitely detain American citizens not accused of anything INDEFINITELY and denies them their right to due process and to be represented by a lawyer and given a fair trial! They can be tortured. The reasons someone can be subject to this are so convoluted. All you need is a distant association with a terrorist (which is nowadays described as someone with more than 7 days of food in his fridge).

Listen to this. UNBELIEVABLE. Romney's TRUE COLORS:
What difference does it make? If you wait long enough he'll have a different opinion.

Also you have to wonder about Romney's thinking processes and how he arrives at and justifies decisions if he is willing to do this to his own dog!

Here are a couple quotes and the link so you can read all the details.


".....He took a dog carrier and attached it to the station wagon’s roof rack, built a special windshield, and put his dog Seamus into the carrier, where the dog remained for the 12-hour trip.,,,,,,

....During the trip, .......his oldest son,Tagg looked around through the rear window and yelled, “Dad — gross!” A brown liquid was dripping down the back window — diarrhea from an animal that just might have been caused by the stress of being inside a cage for 12 hours on top of a car going 60 mph. ...."

....Romney....


In the first clip above of his SC gathering he professes he'll be sober and respect American's rights....but then LOOK WHAT HE DOES TO HIS OWN POOR DOG!

Listen to this. UNBELIEVABLE. Romney's TRUE COLORS:
It all began with our knee-jerk reaction to the 9/11 attacks led to the creation of the Patriot Act -- a horribly misnamed piece of legislation if ever there was one. It's just another example of failed policy that the establishment in both parties refuse to give up.

One of the biggest reasons I want Obama gone so badly: He promised to do away with this sort of idiocy and ended up supporting it. If America is faced with a choice between Obama and Romney, this issue won't really matter since both openly support such idiocy. A truly viable third option would be nice.

Nobody has any comments about Romney torturing his own Irish Setter by making him ride on the roof rack during a 12 hour road trip while his family and luggage are safely in the car? Nobody has any concerns about how he arrives at his decisions? If you read the article the dog was frightened to death and lost control of his bowels and the contents dripped all down the sides of the car which his kids sitting in the back noticed first.
