The funny thing is, the best that the liberal controlled media could do, is point out that Clint Eastwood was not in the video. How lame. 🙄

It seems maybe my concerns were a bit unfounded.
Looks more like slime attack. Go read. I haven’t always agreed with the author, in fact; I do not link to him often at all. However, when he is right, he is right.
I feel a bit better, but I still think we should vet our people a bit more. I also think Romney’s people should vet staffers a bit more too.
This is what happens when you do not vet your ranks.
I knew the left would try and tie that crap to Romney, I knew it! 😡
Bill Murphy, Mitt Romney’s Social Media Director, and his colleague Ali Akbar have ripped off a lot of people. They ripped off the Tea Party with the American Liberty Alliance. They ripped off movement Conservatives with the National Bloggers Club. They even ripped off Andrew Breitbart. But their days of making it rain misbegotten right-wing dollars may be numbered.
In 2009 Murphy and Akbar worked together at American Liberty Alliance, an organization which collected “donations” throughout the summer while claiming they were just waiting for their 501(c)3 application to go through. It never did. Then they worked together at National Bloggers Club, a group which solicited “donations” for the past six months while actually calling itself a non-profit (status pending). But according to the IRS, they never bothered to file the necessary documents.
If we lose this damned election, I know who to blame! Damned idiots. I figured one of them had ties to Romney. 😡 I am still supporting Romney, But I hope like hell Romney gets rid of these clowns and quickly.

I happened to have found this on Facebook.
I know what I said earlier about Ron Paul.
Alex Jones’s delivery and acting aside; the information is interesting.
Watch it:

I had heard about this before, but didn’t realize the extent of it.
Interesting indeed.
This is why Ron Paul is not the GOP’s candidate for President of the United States:
Rep. Ron Paul said GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney’s convention speech left him “very skeptical” that the country’s economic policies will change.
“The speech is what I would expect,” the Texas Republican said Friday on Bloomberg Television’s “In the Loop.” “I remain very, very skeptical of hearing anything that will change the course of history. We have a debt problem. We have a spending problem, but how many things did he list to cut?”
Not enough, he said. The former GOP presidential candidate said the “most disturbing” part of America’s fiscal problems is the Federal Reserve, which Romney did not focus on during his speech.
“There was no talk of the Federal Reserve,” said Paul, advocating the elimination of both the Fed and fixed interest rates. “As long as we have the concept,” he later added, “we will linger a long time because debt is a problem and no one is willing to face up to it and I certainly didn’t hear that last night.
via Mitt Romney speech leaves Ron Paul ‘skeptical’ – Kevin Cirilli – POLITICO.com.
Ron Paul; for all the good things about him, this is one of his many flaws — besides his unrealistic foreign policy —- is that he is just too ideologically rigid. The only way that Ron Paul and his many legion of fans would be happy, is if the Federal Reserve were closed, the military were dismantled and America went back to gold standard. Of course, all of those things are just unrealistic at best.
He followed up those remarks with this bit idiotic nonsense:
So what’s his take on the Republican Party?
“Well, it is not my party. I do not like politics at all,” Paul said. “I think both parties are Keynesian economists and support positions that I do not like. So, the party, in many ways is irrelevant.”
Which is precisely why Ron Paul will never be President of the United States of America or thankfully anything else in the Republican Party ever again. I mean, if the man cannot tell the difference between an Marxist and an Republican; then he needs to get the heck out politics for good. because it is quite obvious that he is not fit to serve in any sort of capacity.
The Bottom line is:
I have to admit, I liked both the convention pre-speech video and the speech itself.
The intro video was quite moving. One of the moments that stands out, is the moment when Romney talk about love. He sighs deeply and says, “You know, I just do not understand love.” This hit home with me, greatly. Only difference with me is, the young Lady that I fell in love with just was not in the cards for me to marry or God’s will, if you want to put a religious shine on it. So, I let her go and let it go. But I know that feeling of being in love with someone. It is a deep emotion and I’ve experienced it in my day.
Here’s the intro video: (via HotAir.com)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_cGyPwt5UI&hd=1
The convention speech was great, even Reagan-like. Of course, there are some who are serial gripers and complainers; who did not like it. But for me, as an Christian, as a Conservative American; it hit right at home.
Here it is:
I believe that if this speech and the talks about Romney’s willingness to help others does not convince voters, that he is the real deal and not a rich stiff — then nothing will — and quite frankly, I really do not give a remote flip if we get their votes or not. Anyone that is stupid enough to buy the lies of the liberal left and vote for a Marxist President after this one’s horrible failures; they get the Government that they deserve.
In closing:
This comes via Mediaite’s Andrew Kirell, who calls it an “Epic Fail”:
Now, personally, I watched it; and I did not think that it was that overly horrible. Still just the same, Andrew rightfully does point out the following:
The tribute did make slight nods to Paul’s belief in sound money and his fight to audit the Federal Reserve. But it ignored Paul’s fight to end GOP sacred cows like the costly and futile War on Drugs; his fight to protect civil liberties from executive overreach like the PATRIOT Act; and his battle against an unsustainable foreign policy of “maintaining empire” and playing World Police.
The video also neglected to mention just how Paul would like to cut the deficit.
Instead of the mainstream Republicans’ supposedly “radical” plans to cut from future spending growth, Paul wants to slash budgets left and right… especially the GOP’s sacred-cow national defense. He wants to end all corporate tax loopholes; something the GOP is reluctant to touch. He considers such “pro-business” tax manipulation to be synonymous with crony capitalism.
[….]
The GOP must have thought this video could placate Paul supporters enough to get their vote. Plenty of Republican officials expressed certainty that the Texas congressman will leave the convention fully endorsing the Romney/Ryan ticket. Despite Paul telling Fox’s Neil Cavuto that he has “no plans” to endorse, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer said she is certain he will hop on the bandwagon.
But that’s just haughty. And wrong. Because until the party actually tries to change instead of occasionally throwing a superficial bone to Paul, then you can expect many of his supporters to maintain a firm position of “not voting for Romney.”
Want proof? Look to the little-reported fact that Paul’s delegates staged a walk-out immediately following the tribute video.
They walked out, and will likely continue to walk out, because the difference between Paul’s following and the GOP’s rank-and-file “Ew, it’s Romney, but we must support him” types is that the former truly believe in consistency and principles, and are wholly interested in maintaining it, while the latter seem blind in their belief that this Romney/Ryan ticket will somehow “save” the country while shutting out the the voices of actual change.
All very valid points, but I do tend to believe, that If I know Ron Paul like I think I do — he most likely is happy that he got any sort of a tribute at all and that his Son Rand is being accepted among the GOP mainstream. The reason I say this is because it was not too long ago that the GOP was headlong into President Bush’s Neoconservative nonsense and people like Ron Paul could not get a word in edgewise, much less a tribute from the GOP. So, I would say that Ron Paul is happy that his message has been accepted this much.
As for Romney my feelings are this here: As some of you might know, I have decided to cast my lot with Mitt Romney. I came to this decision last night, after watching the behavior of the left, when it came to Mia Love and Ann Romney; I mean sometimes, one must say, enough is enough and that I did and I have no regrets at all. I do have some doubts about Romney, but at this point; anything is better than Barack Obama. I mean, the man has been a horrible failure in many areas, even though I did not vote for Obama. I did kind of expect some sort of result from him. However, myself and many others like me in this position — got nothing.
So, I am in for Romney — come hell, high water and hacked blog. I am voting for something who will actually change things — for the good.
There are times when someone has to take a stand against the forces of evil. There are times when one has to make decision to go against the grain, there are times when one has to look at injustice and has to say aloud; this cannot stand and is not even remotely acceptable. There are times, when one has to say, “To hell with family,” when one has to say, “To hell with the bigotry of those who want to use Religion as an acid test to one’s ability to Govern the Country.” As a 40-year-old man, who knows that the two previous Presidents have screwed us, when it comes to spending —- I have made a decision for America; and that includes taking a stand against evil.
As much, that I am quite aware of Governor Mitt Romney’s Statism, as much as I know that Mitt Romney said of the big three auto companies, “let them fail,” and then turned right around and lied about it. As much as I know that Mitt Romney did craft what is now known as “Romneycare,” as much as I have some serious concerns about Mitt Romney’s being a true Conservative and not a RINO —- I have to draw and line in the sand and say loudly, “Enough is enough!”
The reason I am writing this is that I happen to stumble upon the news story of how Liberal Democrat voters are wishing for the death of Ann Romney. This, in this writer’s opinion is a bridge too far. I watched Ann Romney’s speech last night and I must confess I was very much impressed. I also watched as Mitt Romney humbly sat and listened to Chris Christie sing his praises, not with a smug look on his face or with arrogant smile, but with a look of total humility about him.
Please, do not misunderstand me, I am all for freedom of speech and for the freedom of expression. However, this goes much beyond that; this is just pure evil and as a Christian, I cannot allow this sort of thing to go unchallenged. My family for doing it may chide me, but I cannot cast my lot with a Presidential Candidate who is not even on the ballet in every state. It just so happens, that this election is the most important in the history of our Nation and because of this, I cannot vote for someone who is not even on the ballot in all 50 States. For this, I am now officially rescinding my support of Virgil Goode and I am officially declaring my support for Governor Mitt Romney for President of the United States.
One of the things said at the Republican convention is, “We can do better.” Well, I happen to believe that we can do better than a Democratic Party President, whose supporters call for the death of the wife of someone who is running for President of the United States. It is unacceptable and I cannot sit on the sidelines and not defend decency.
It is said that Democrats fall in love, and Republicans fall in line. Well, I am not falling in line, nor I am a Republican. However, I am someone who is disgusted by the actions of those who support the Party that claims to be an honorable political party. I can assure you, they are not honorable any longer and this sort of stupidity proves that.
So, from now on; I am done sitting on the fence and tired of watching the Democrats and their hypocrisy and doing nothing. So, as of today, I am officially enlisting in the battle for the soul of America. I am supporting Mitt Romney.
We can do better.
It is time to fight and I grew up in southwest Detroit! I know all about fighting.
Let’s go.
I just want to send you to this site here and let you read this crap.
Right about now, I am SERIOUSLY thinking of voting for Romney. 😡
Unbelievable. 😡
