Romney Is A Moron

Linus Torvalds continues his unvarnished criticism of Mitt Romney, calling him a moron.

Romney said, "... the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem. So it’s very dangerous."

Linus's post on Google+, in reference to Romney's idea of airplane windows that can be opened.
"He really seems to be a f*cking moron."

 

Mormonism And Scientology

Few commentators are willing to discuss the cult-like religion of Mitt Romney.  Linus Torvald, the creator of the Linux operating system, commented on Romney's Mormon religion.  Linus call Mormonism "Batshit Crazy".

The post on Google+
... Mormonism as a religion is a fairly close second to the Scientologists in the race to "Batshit Crazy", and quite frankly, it's not brought up enough in politics because of idiotic politically correct fears of religious criticism.
... So despite that apparent widespread acknowledgement that there's some serious crazy stuff there based on the rantings on a convicted con-man, the social bonds seem to hold it together fairly closely.

Pretender Not Contender

Mitt Romney has never attracted real grassroots enthusiasm.  TV viewers of the 2012 Republican National Convention were significantly lower than 2008.  During the RNC, Mitt Romney looked more like a pretender than a contender.

Romney Bombs: Convention Speech Draws 13 Million Fewer Viewers than McCain in ’08
Mitt Romney’s convention speech was watched by 25 million Americans, which is 13 million fewer viewers than watched John McCain accept the Republican nomination in 2008.
Mitt Romney’s inability to captivate the nation resulted in a gain of only 5 million viewers from the second night to the third night of the Republican convention. ...

Romney Is Multiple-Choice On Abortion

Mitt Romney is for abortion.
"I will preserve and protect a woman's right to choose."




In the video the comment is made, "Mitt Romney is not pro-choice or anti-choice he is multiple choice."

Romney Medicare Fraud

Mitt Romney claimed his companies never took government Medicare or Medicaid funds.  A Romney corporation plead guilty to defrauding the government Medicare program.

Mitt Romney is a corporatist who participated in defrauding the federal government:

... Romney denied that Bain did “any work with the government like Medicaid and Medicare”. Now we learn that Bain, under Romney’s “supervision”, purchased and ran the Damon Corporation, who pled guilty to Federal conspiracy charges as a result of tens of millions of dollars in systemic Medicare fraud committed under Romney’s and Bain’s control. Damon was fined over $119-million which was, at the time, the largest criminal healthcare fine in Massachusetts history and Mr. Romney’s participation was characterized in 1996 by Corporate Crime Reporter thusly: “As manager and board member of Damon Corp, Mitt Romney sits at the center of one of the top 15 corporate crimes of the 1990′s.”

Romney Will Replace Obamacare With What?

Mitt Romney implemented socialized medicine in Massachusetts.  He now claims he will repeal and replace Obamacare, which was modeled on Romneycare.  What does "repeal and replace" mean?  Replace it with what?

This article highlights how Romney should repeal the IRS rule that enforces Obamacare, but Romney isn't talking about repealing the rule because he is only go to replace Obamacare and not completely remove it.

The Romney camp still says Mitt will “repeal[] Obamacare, starting Day One.” If he were serious, he would announce that he will rescind this IRS rule on day one. But the fact that Romney picked Leavitt suggests he really doesn’t mind ObamaCare that much, and that he is just saying whatever he needs to say to get what he wants.

When Romney gets serious about removing Romneycare Obamacare, he will commit to repealing the IRS rule.  Until then, Romney is only pandering to conservatives while he implements liberal ideology.

Paul Ryan Is No Conservative

Some Republicans have become excited over presumptive nominee Romney's vice-president pick of Paul Ryan.  After a little research, conservative Republicans are finding that Paul Ryan is not a conservative.  Ryan is an insider who has been in Congress for over a decade.  Ryan, like Obama, voted for the bankster TARP bailout at the expense of the American public.

Paul Ryan even voted for Obama's taxpayer-funded bailout of General Motors.  Paul Ryan is a big-government war monger who happens to be registered as a Republican.

The New American wrote:

Ryan voted for all of the big-ticket, budget-busting items of the administration of President George W. Bush, including the No Child Left Behind Act and the prescription drug benefit known as Medicare Part D, often described as the largest expansion of the welfare state since Lyndon Johnson's Great Society. Ryan voted to create the new Department of Homeland Security, including the Transportation Security Administration that has harassed air travelers, while making aircraft safe from shoes, belt buckles and grandma's knitting needles. He voted for the PATRIOT Act, giving government enhanced powers for warrantless snooping into the lives of American citizens as well as foreign nationals. Ryan voted for the Troubled Assets Relief Program that bailed out the "too big to fail" financial institutions and inspired the Tea Party rebellion against big government and "crony capitalism." He backed the auto bailout that turned GM into "Government Motors."
