The Media This article says the following: -In his Senate race, he wrote a letter promising a gay Republican group he would be a stronger advocate for gays and their rights than his liberal opponent, Edward M. Kennedy. Now he emphasizes his opposition to gay marriage and civil unions. Why does the media keep repeating this lie about Romney? When he ran for governor in 2002, Romney declared his opposition to both same-sex marriage and civil unions. Click here for a link to a 2002 article that explains this. There is no change. Why is it that the media attacks Romney over non existing flip-flops, but does not attack Hillary of her support, and now opposition to the war? It often seems that journalist would rather cause problems, than fix them . They don't even try to give an accurate portraits of what Romney believes. But this is not new. Journalist tend to over simplify things. Else why do they summarize the president's speech, when you can read the whole thing onlin...

Friday, Feb 23, 2007 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Kevin Madden (857) 288-6390 Boston, MA – Today, Governor Mitt Romney issued the following statement on the current environmental debate: "Governor Mark Sanford is right. Unfortunately, some in the Republican Party are embracing the radical environment al ideas of the liberal left. As governor, I found that thoughtful environmentalism need not be anti-growth and anti- jobs . But Kyoto-style sweeping mandates, imposed unilaterally in the United States , would kill jobs , depress growth and shift manufacturing to the dirtiest developing nations." " Republicans should never abandon pro-growth conservative principles in an effort to embrace the ideas of Al Gore . Instead of sweeping mandates, we must use America's power of innovation to develop alternative sources of energy and new technologies that use energy more efficiently."

Unfortunately I have to add another list to my " Criticism of Mitt Romney " page. The Criticisms is "Romney is not a true Republican because he voted for Paul Tsongas." First a clarification. Romney voted for George H. Bush in the General (final) election, but he voted for Paul Tsongas in the primaries. Every belief has many valid reasons to agree and disagree with it. I created a page for this belief here : Reasons to disagree (Romney was wrong to vote for Tsongas) 1. Romney was a good republican because he was very practical. In 1992 there was no Republican primary. He had two options. He could sit on the side lines and not vote (like me this last election cycle) or he could vote for the best candidate who would not likely beat Bush in the General election. Romney chose the latter. This does not make him a bad republican. 2. Paul Tsongas was a fiscal conservative . 3. Paul Tsongas was a good guy . 4. I wish every Republican would have ...

Last year, U.S. corporations spent more money on tort claims than they did on R&D." Mitt Romney is a...
