In Case You Missed It:  Romney Interviews   Governor Romney on Fox News In case you missed it, Governor Mitt Romney recently discussed several issues with Fox News' Carl Cameron.  Here are some excerpts of what Romney said.  On Life Issues: "Upon a full examination of the sanctity of life and when life begins, there is no question, when you put together all the DNA, you've got life and it's human. And I recognize that every civilized society respects human life. And on that basis, I came out and said, look, I am pro-life. Let there be no ambiguity." On Gay Marriage: "I want gay individuals to have equal rights in housing and equal rights in education. I don't believe in discrimination and I don't believe the American people do. That's a fundamental principle. At the same time, just as fundamental is the principle that marriage is a relationship between a man and a woman. And to suggest somehow that those two things can't co-exist, that respect...

Romney Books "What we become depends on what we read after all of the professors have finished with us. The greatest university of all is a collection of books." ** Thomas Carlyle I've tried to make a list of other books that Romney has read and referenced. I know he liked the John Adams book by Mccullough. What books have you heard him reference? 1. The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid , by Bill Bryson 2. The Wealth and Poverty of Nations , "But number five, the culture of America is under attack. Now some people say wait, when you talk about culture, Governor, that's not of the same order of magnitude as the things you just mentioned: jihadists and the emergence of Asia, spending too much money, using too much oil. And I disagree. There was a book written some years ago by a fellow named David Landis; he's a Harvard professor. The book was given to me. It's called The Wealth and Poverty of Nations. The jacket cover included an endorsement...

I think this part applies to our current war... Denethor: "My sons are spent." [Denethor steps away from Faramir. Pippin approaches.] Denethor: "My line has ended." Pippin (looking at Faramir): "He's alive!" Denethor: "The house of Stewards has failed." Pippin: "He needs medicine my lord!" Denethor: "My line has ended!" [Denethor wanders to the edge of the courtyard. He looks down to see the orc army.] Pippin: "My lord!" Denethor: "Rohan has deserted us." [Orc catapults fling boulders at the city. People cry and run.] Denethor: "Théoden has betrayed me." [More boulders fall.] Denethor: "Abandon your posts! Flee! Flee for you lives!" [Gandalf smacks Denethor with his staff, knocking him out.] Gandalf: "Prepare for battle." [Gandalf rides down to rally the soldiers.] Gandalf: "Pull them in! To the wall! Defend the wall! Return to yo...
