Mitt, the means is the end. The way you get there is what will determine what you get when you arrive. No one can serve both God and money. Your early conditioning has warped your priorities. A values clarification is definitely in order. Both Hitler and Mussolini intended to improve the human race. They were not stupid men, but they were extremely ignorant. Please stop the lies and manipulation. They will not make you happier. Happiness will come along only with honesty, complete honesty.

The kook D.J. Diebold once again shows all just where on the IQ map he/she is located and it isn't anywhere near normal civilized Americans reside.
"Both Hitler and Mussolini intended to improve the human race."
Puleeeeze you sick individual, take your twisted hateful ideas somewhere else like North Korea or Iran where they value such manure.

D. J.,
A valid point. No man can serve both God and Mammon. Mitt points to his generous sharing of wealth with charities and church. Being generous is one thing. Serving mammon to get gains with which to share is quite another. Compared to his Dad, George, Mitt appears to be serving mammon to make a name for himself, not to serve others. Notice how the widow who gave her all gave more than did the wealthy who bragged of how much they pitched in! Mitt misses the point!

No, they were insane monsters that killed millions of innocent people.

“Romney and his wife, Ann, gave 29.4 percent of their income to charity in 2011, donating $4,020,772 out of the $13,696,951 they took in. Obama and first lady Michelle Obama gave 21.8 percent of their income to charitable organizations last year, donating $172,130 out of the $789,674 they made.”

Has anyone noticed that the Romney's family are great at business? Twitt Romney took a $10 million tax bailout to save Bains Co. or Romney would have filed bankruptsy and his brothers have also filed bankruptsy.

Has anybody noticed that Obama is a lousy business man and a lousy president. Perhaps America needs a good business man to bring us out of the death spiral Obama's failed presidency has put us in.

truth, if you're going to attempt childish criticism, please endeavor to be accurate. My avatar is not a Colt .45 but a Colt model 1911A-1 .45 automatic. I proudly display this fine implement of American ingenuity for the fact that it is a symbol of America's continued fight to remain a free country. This pistol has served America's military for over 100 years in two world wars and countless other skirmishes. The United States Marine Corps (pronounced "Core" not "Corpse" like the Commander In Chief stupidly did), is in the process of switching from the Beretta M9, 9mm pistol back to a Colt 1911.
Being the ignorant liberal that your posts indicate you are, I would not expect you to understand.
Keep your head in the sand my Obamamite friend.

Slabside:...You are aware of Romney's history on gun control aren't you??... On July 1, 2004, Romney signed a permanent state ban on assault weapons, saying at the signing ceremony for the new law, "Deadly assault weapons have no place in Massachusetts. These guns are not made for recreation or self-defense. They are instruments of destruction with the sole purpose of hunting down and killing people." He also supported the Brady Bill's five-day waiting period for gun purchases. He proudly said those positions wouldn't make him "the hero of the NRA."..... Be careful what you wish for, Slabside.
My Take posted at 6:02 pm on Sat, Oct 20, 2012.
I agree that you cannot worship God and money, you have to choose. That is what makes so many on the right so phony. They claim to be the side of God, but everything about their economic philosophy is predicated to greed. In truth many Republicans are a self-serving party that doesn’t care that people like Romney enjoy butchering American jobs and sending them off overseas so that they can make more money. There is this warped mindset that they can get away with throwing people’s livelihoods under the bus, and then claim that they are religious and good people. What a crock! Understand it is not religion I am critical of, it is people who think because they pray once in a while or go to church on occasional Sundays that they somehow are Gods chosen. My understanding of how you are judged is based on what you do for others, not just taking care of yourself. Greed and God don’t mix!

You hoped you could live your life with the values and convictions that Mitt Romney has. The so-called lies and manipulations you accuse Romney of are the lies and manipulations of his opponents.

- lies -
ONLY male resumes available for Gov Romnesias Cabinet
had to go out and scour the countryside to find some qualified females
The women's resumes were on his desk BEFORE he took office!
- more lies -
I'm for 100% - except for the 47% lazy beggers and leaches - he's talking about YOU and ME - working for low wages, serving our country, retired, and we all
pay taxes - everything you buy, in your rent, how about FICA - for those ENTITLEMENTS you'll get after you work till 75 or longer
He'll make Medicare better - for the insurance companies
- need more -
bragged that 40-some % of his cabinet were women - NOT for long - 20-some % when he left office! - he's on so many sides of every issue, he's in the 4th dimension
I don't know how you Rs can support him - I sure couldn't support Clinton
Obama got us out of a disaster and we're headed in the right direction. He may not do everything right, but at least he's thinking about us and not the billionaires!

I'm waiting for Mitt's complete transformation into a beer drinking, deer hunting redneck, to prove that he'll make a dandy prez. His cult has already started to slacken their age old rigid rules for his benefit. Talk about hypocritical to the max. "Church" doctrine that has been in place for a hundred years is now out the window so Mitt will appear more human.
My problem with Mitt is that he has NEVER had to make a decision like what to buy for his kids for $50.00 for Christmas because that's all the money in the house. He has NEVER had to confront the many problems NORMAL people have to face every day.
He could not possibly ever relate to the common working class? Women and minorities?????????????????? Don't exist in Mitt's world.

My Take ... so many many " Christians " believe that Jesus died for their sins.
They think " well Jesus died to have my sins forgiven so since he died for me I might as well commit some sins -- no point in Jesus dying for nothing in my case ... and since I'm already forgiven since I accept Jesus Christ as my Savior and believe He died for my sins ... any sins I might commit are already forgiven which means I can do any da*n thing I want .. cause Jesus loves me and died for my sins ".

Regardless of personal opinion, conventional wisdom (or should I say the conventional absence of wisdom?), polls and every other element related to politics, to improve the future of our descendants we must be aware on a continuous basis.
There once was a time, most believed that we could elect a candidate with some trusting knowledge and the benefit of minimal doubt, that we would be treated equitably.
Today it looks quite clear that micro-managing each and every politician might be indicated. If so, what do we need them for? The answer? Absolutely nothing.

Dear downtownresident,
If we could only get Dick Cheney to join Mr. Romney on safari, perhaps in the most troubled and heavily armed area of the African continent, we might positively serve not only the future of U.S. citizens, but the world. I will even buy their beer and tip the locals to their hunting party's location by placing a GPS transmitter in every can of beer.

Dear D. J.: Honesty? Let's refresh your memory. Sheriff Joe Arpiao proved the birth certificate is a fraud/fake; Barry bowed to a saudi monarch; accepted a socialist handbook from chavez; over 900 executive orders; stonewalled fast & furious with as such; lied about Benghazi; whispered in putin's ear, I'll have more flexibility when I get re-elected; upon his confirmation as an elected official, the marxist-in-chief held his first news conference in cairo, egypt; helped turn the arab spring to an arab winter, complete with the re-emergence of the radical, sharia-compliant, MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD; gutted our military; destroyed NASA; spent tax dollars on failed "green energy jobs"; 16 trillion in debt; Moody's lowered our rating; snubbed the Prime Minister of Israel(dinner and photo-opts); stopped the keystone pipeline and placed a moratorium to drill on federal lands; price of fuel nearly triples------but the one issue that stands above the rest is-----the potus is surrounded by "CZARS", who are well entrenched in the Marxist/Socialist ideology, implementing their agendas, without Congressional oversight or approval.

Did I miss something on the wire here. Several refrences to the Bible saying rich people are evil on editorials lately. Oh, must be the Democrats have released talking points saying that rich people- meaning Mitt Romney- are evil and therefore should not be considered for President. Quit interesting as almost everyone in Congress, the current President and high ranking officials in both parties are (gulp) rich. You may recall a passage that said "the poor will always be amoung us". Should we assume the other poor people will be there to support them? I know, gets tricky when you actually think about it.
