Still More Evidence Of Moderation Emerges From Romney's Past

[meegbear]

Mitt Romney's efforts to prove his die-hard conservatism took a couple of pretty major hits today.

First we learn that back in 1994 Romney said that he hoped "moderates of both parties" would control the Senate, "not the Jesse Helmses."

Now it's emerged that Romney voted for liberal Dem Paul Tsongas in 1992.

1. Romney's a nutcase and a jerk

He VETOED a bill that was widely supported that would have given kids in schools the OPTION not to dissect dead animals and use computer programs instead. That's archaic and I can't believe anyone would veto the OPTION.

He's a canned hunter.

And this is what he said about animal activists at the Olympics: "a bigger threat to the Olympics than Osama Bin Laden." Of course, Bin Laden was probably NO threat but the association is insulting and the idea that people holding signs are terrorists clearly seems OK to him.

And wasn't he the genius that used the term "tar baby" and wasn't sure why that was offensive?

He speaks against illegal immigrants and hires them himself.

He's for the ridiculous wall between USA and Mexico.

He doesn't support gay marriage: ''America cannot continue to lead the family of nations around the world if we suffer the collapse of the family here at home," Romney said, calling the Supreme Judicial Court's legalization of same-sex marriage in Massachusetts ''a blow to the family."

So to recap, he's bigoted, doesn't understand human and civil rights, likes to kill animals, sees terrorists everywhere and is a hypocrite.
