Romney The Flipper

-
  1. When Romney was in Detroit this year campaigning he said of the Chinese, "They are good competitors, and like all good competitors, will take every advantage they can get." Does that mean he thinks our banks are good competitors also?
  2. Romney said we don't need to see his tax returns for five years and we should trust him.
  3. Romney first said he would repeal Obamacare on the first day he is office. He now says he will keep the good parts of the healthcare bill. 
  4. Romney and Ryan said they have a plan that will allow them to increase military spending while reducing taxes on the middle class and not increase taxes on the wealthy. When asked to explain it they said they will after the election.
  5. Paul Ryan first said he was against abortion in cases of rape and incest. He now says he can go along with it because Romney does.
  6. Paul Ryan first said he ran a marathon under three hours. He now admits it was over four hours.
More to follow; I am sure. Add your favorite Mitty flip-flop with a comment.




The following came from this website.  http://mittromneyflipflops.com/#javascript:void(0)

  1. 'I think the minimum wage ought to keep pace with inflation.' [1] 'There's no question raising the minimum wage excessively causes a loss of jobs.' [2]
  2. 'This is a completely airtight kennel mounted on the top of our car.' [1] 'They're not happy that my dog loves fresh air.' 
  3. 'Roe v. Wade has gone too far.' [1] 'I believe that since Roe v. Wade has been the law for 20 years we should sustain and support it.'  [2]
  4. 'I respect and will protect a woman's right to choose.' [1] 'I never really called myself pro-choice.' [2]
  5. 'I've been a hunter pretty much all my life.' [1] 'I'm not a big game hunter... I've always been a rodent and rabbit hunter. Small varmints, if you will.' [2]
  6. 'I'm not trying to return to Reagan-Bush.' [1] 'Ronald Reagan is... my hero.'[2]
Fosbury won with a flop so Romney thinks he can also.

Keep Freedom on The Internet!

Net neutrality under attack:   Don't let Verizon and Google dictate the future of the Internet. Contact the FCC! This post reflects a comment received from Common Cause. It is time to stand up with them and keep the internet free . As the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) considers how to write the rules to protect freedom and openness on the Internet,   who should they turn to: consumers like you and me, or the oligopolistic telecommunications companies?   Verizon and Google announced this week that they have it all figured out when it comes to net neutrality.* They unveiled a policy framework that would give telecom companies the right to speed up or slow down certain kinds of content, and to block outright  applications or content on wireless networks.

What Can Free Market Conservatives Do?

-
I am a free market conservative. I voted republican in every presidential election since 1968, except one. It is obvious that our government must live within its means and do so in a manner as not to interfere with a functioning free market economy. If we desire to take control of government, we must demand government carry out one of its primary functions; protecting free markets from tyranny, both public and private. We are vocal about defending it from public tyranny, but silent when it comes to tyranny in the private sector. “Experience should teach us to be most on guard to protect liberty when the government’s purposes are beneficial. Men born to freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of liberty by evil-minded rulers. The greater dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding.” Justice Louis Brandeis 1928 Today our focus seems to be only on the tyranny of government when it comes to free markets. We need t

China And The Five Baits

-

If you are under the age of 50 you should be concerned about China from an economic and global power standpoint. Some believe China is seeking peace with the rest of the world. Based on their long history, I am not convinced. For China long term is hundreds of years and for the United States it is the next election cycle. China's focus is always on the long term. Much of this post is drawn from a book,  On China , written by Henry Kissinger, the Secretary of State under President Nixon and a research paper of the National Intelligence Council titled  Global Trends 2030: Alternative Worlds . Whether the future will prove China's desire for peaceful co-existence depends on whether its middle class will sufficiently benefit from economic growth and not allow their leadership to throw it away by creating enemies with trading partners.  This requires the country becoming more democratic and less inclined to be a threat to the remainder of the world.  The jury is still looking
