Yes, Romney was the Problem

The GOP establishment and some conservative pundits, such as Ann Coulter, are in full defense mode, claiming that Romney is not responsible for losing to an incumbent responsible for perhaps the most damaging fiscal crises in our nation’s history.: :  Don’t believe it.:  Romney IS responsible for wasting a billion dollars carry out an issue-free campaign […]

 

The Romney Fiscal Record: the 800 lb gorilla in the room that everyone ignores

With the Romney record on social issues all over the ideological map, the standard fallback line used by Romney partisans is that his outstanding business management experience and, by extension, his allegedly brilliant performance managing the liberal state of Massachusetts, make him a great presidential candidate.:  This record, we are told, qualifies him to not […]

 

Why is Romney being supported by the Global Warming Crowd?

Romney: A Conservative on Immigration?

Romney Comes to the Rescue of the First Amendment? Give me a Break!

There was quite a fuss this week over how ObamaCare will trample religious freedom by requiring religious hospitals, colleges and charities to provide insurance coverage for contraception, sterilization and the ”morning-after” abortion pill, all of which are opposed by the Catholic Church and the latter opposed by most protestant denominations.
