My wife is truly my better half, roy. She's a great woman. Why is yours against Romney though? You like Beck, so I don't think you're holding his Mormonism against him. You think he's a liberal at heart? I would be truly interested in knowing what you have against him. He seems like a great candidate. I have been scratching my head for awhile now as to why he hasn't been coronated by the party already.

Actually grow a set of testicles and go back to voting for what's right, rather than voting party line.
I have tried to vote like that all 55+ years of my life. You should try it, you might like it.

It's not going to happen, Roy. She's way down in the polls. She has already had her flash in the pan.

They would quickly be destroyed if they didn't and most of them have too much to lose to become martyrs to the cause of human evolution. The grass-roots of the Occupation Protests must be nourished and coaxed into full grown Revolution. After that we might get some sort of Humanity Party that sees to it that we never again have an obscenely large wealth gap in this country again.

Can you put your mind to work and picture what that full blown revolution would look like and what the result would be? The only really successful revolution this Earth has ever known was the American Revolution. The French one ended up with the final leaders cutting off the heads of the first round of head choppers. Robespierre led in the beginning and got his head removed. The Russian Revolution ended with millions dead because they failed to like the Reds. I think that if you get your desire from that group of useful idiots in NYC you may see that the revolution that resulted wouldn't be something you would like. People being dragged out of their houses and shot because they didn't agree with whoever won. Yep, that will come.

I see him as a full fledged RINO just like McCain. That is enough but his thinking that his state health care is better than Obama's doesn't get many points from me either. I haven't asked my wife why she doesn't like him but I doubt that religion is the cause. Knowing women it may well be that she doesn't like his looks. She probably was leaning toward Perry and knows that Romney has thrown some real crap at him.

Agreed, but what if?

BTW, my wife is something else the way she takes care of me and her sons.

Your post to me has nothing to do with links it has to do with a racist remark made by one of our fellow posters, try keeping up.
