[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 1934534, member: 229"] Some of the comments from Romney defenders are hilarious. I'll go on record (I can't speak for any of the other Romney-bashers) as saying that of course I don't want Obama in the White House. I don't honestly think anyone on this board does. That fact alone does not mean that I support Romney. The funniest thing to me is as soon as you say anything bad about Romney (or point out similarities between Obama and Romney) his minions come out in full-force using phrases like "Obama is your messiah"... with little to no facts to dispute anything bad said about Romney... almost as if religiously defending Romney... in many cases, more vehemently than I've heard folks defend their faith... Kind of like Romney is their messiah. Just because I say something negative (though truthful) about a particular candidate you happen to have hitched your wagon to... in no way does that mean that I'm for "the other guy". This "Us vs. Them" garbage is ridiculous. There's plenty of disdain out there for both candidates and I'll prove it: What if (insert name of the greatest president in your mind) was running against Romney in the Primaries? Would you vote for Romney? If no (then congratulations, you have a pulse as Romney isn't the greatest president in your mind), then list the reasons why you would vote for George Washington, or Lincoln, or Eisenhower, etc... over Romney and you have done exactly what those who actually care about the GOP are doing now - pointing out that they should be doing a lot more for the party and ultimately the people than they are currently doing. I say the same thing to Dems about their party/candidates and get accused of being a "Tea-bagger" or "Neo-Con", etc... Ironically every time I hear brainwashed GOP'ers high-fiving each other over how much "better Romney is than Obama" I have the exact same thought as when I see idiots out there with signs supporting Obama and yelling about how he's going to give them free phones, or Healthcare, or money... The extremists on both sides are nearly identical in every way. [/QUOTE]
