so ... Mitt Romney. - Page 17

U2isthebest · 10-08-2007, 09:17 AM

Wow. What an asshole.

That's right; forget about individual needs, forget about the person, just stay on message, just stay with your self-righteous convictions, right Mitt? That reeks of utter caring and a lack of compassion. I'm speechless.

U2isthebest · 10-08-2007, 09:21 AM

I readily admit I don't follow the Romney campaign that closely, and I'm not extremely aware of his positions on the majority of issues, but after seeing that video and a couple others, I would say he's about as qualified to lead this country as I am. It's like watching Bush. This guy does not know what the hell he's talking about. Period. It's absolutely pathetic.

MrsSpringsteen · 10-09-2007, 08:28 AM

Gee no other responses to that

My repsonse: What a rat bastard.

coemgen · 10-09-2007, 10:05 AM

I agree with what's been said here.

MrsSpringsteen · 10-09-2007, 11:46 AM

I was just wondering what the Romney supporters think. Maybe they just haven't been around.

martha · 10-09-2007, 12:43 PM

Or maybe they're embarrassed. I sure would be.

It looked like Mitt was about to be sabotaged.
He read the situation, made his statement and moved on.

He's against Medical Marijuna, and for good reason.

In a recent 60 Minutes segment, it showed how Medical Marijuna usage is being abused. Potheads in Calif were making up excuses for getting prescriptions filled. People (Potheads) complained about "maladies" such as "itchy skin" to "aniexty" were getting their scripts filled by a script Dr, the script Doc was exposed on 60 Minutes.

A few of my family members have Muscular Dystrophy and none have ever needed Medical Marijuna for their condition- that's not to say this fellow may actually need the drug THC for his condition, but I am a tiny bit familar with Muscular Dystrophy.

Now that's not to say Mitt couldn't of handled himself a tiny bit differently in the situation, but he sensed that questioner's motives were duplitious.

I do recognize that most potheads are in favor of Medical Marijuna, and it's easy to connect the dots.

good day,

This has to be the dumbest excuse as to why you are against medical marijuana I've ever heard. Prescription drugs are the highest abused drug right now, next to alcohol. So are you going to deny those that really need it due to this backwards logic?

I'm not really interested in you stance on medical marijuana, I'm well aware that you have a hard time thinking outside your own life, but the point is Mitt couldn't handle the question. Probably because like you he really doesn't understand or know why he's against it.

coemgen · 10-09-2007, 04:28 PM

Give it a week, Mitt will change his stance on this too.

His poll numbers are much better than this Evangalical's.

Well I'm not a "pothead" and I don't do illegal drugs, never have. But I am in favor of medical marijuana, personally I could never give myself the power to deny that to a person who is suffering if that helps him or her deal with the suffering. That man weighs 80 pounds.

"Potheads" can easily obtain pot, they don't need fake prescriptions to do so.

MrsSpringsteen · 10-09-2007, 04:40 PM

And it's the way in which Mitt was so dismissive of that man too, with that plastic grin on his face and the way he just ignored him and nexted him. He can spout all kinds of idealism and self righteousness, but when he's faced with that man he gets all squirmy and uncomfortable, or something.

not legally.

and that you're not a user of pot doesn't negate the fact that potheads are in favor of medical marijuana.

why do make ever post about "you" if you disagree w/a politician?

i thought Mitt wasn't overly dismissive, but read the situation correctly.

Well you have a very strange definition of dismissive.

I just don't think "potheads" worry all that much about the legality of it. There are plenty of people who smoke it regularity who don't seem all that worried

That man IS a personal issue, and his suffering IS personal for him. He's not just a statistic.

So what. That doesn't change the fact that Romney changes his stance on big issues regularly.

BVS · 10-09-2007, 05:03 PM

It's called slight of hand...

Diamond thinks he can divert you from the REAL issues.

He doesn't understand we can't all be content with being simpletons...
