RRD:I chose the term "Liberal-Socialist" since that is what many conservatives(rightly) call those who support Global Warming alarmism and the Individual Mandate.
Or at least they call Democrats that.
Both Romney & Gingrich are liberal on two of the most important issues facing us:whether the state has a right to force us to buy health insurance,& whether global warming is both real & man-made.
Both Romney and Gingrich believe that the State has the right to force us to buy health insurance.The average voter,by contrast,rejects the individual mandate(and NO not because it is a Federal rather than state mandate).Both Romney and Gingrich believe in Global Warming.The average voter does not.
So I ask why are Republicans considering choosing as their standard bearer from two people who are to the left of the precious independents?Do those who support Romney and/or Gingrich have any fundamental grasp of the issues at stake?Or is this just about partisanship?Why do these people oppose Obama?
Why is it that Obama's support for Obamacare makes him a socialist,but Romney's support for Romneycare makes him a "moderate"?Why is it that Global Warming is a excuse for totalitarian controls when Obama endorses it,but a "flaw",or a "error" when Romney endorses it?
Romney is not a Conservative.He is not a "moderate".He is not "flawed".He is not Reagan.He is not even George W.Bush.He is a sick joke played on conservatives.Yet Romney is regarded as"serious",or "inevitable",while Cain is regarded as a buffoon for confusing the members of the pro-Al-Qaeda Libyan Islamic Fighting Group with the Taliban(fn1).In fact,though the Taliban does not control Libya,Libya does have,among its "freedom fighters",self-avowed Jihadi who boasted of attacking American service personnel in both Afghanistan & Iraq(fn2).
This is not to defend Cain's more serious error:giving a interview when you are sleep deprived.Nor does it excuse Cain's ignorance of foreign policy more broadly.But given the choice of Cain on the one hand,& Romney or Gingrich on the other I would choose Cain.
