Romney: I Can Be a Dictator Too

Mitt Romney Says He Could Wage War on Iran Without Congress' Approval (Hat tip CHQ)

To quote him directly (emphasis added):

I can assure you if I'm president, the Iranians will have no question but that I will be willing to take military action if necessary to prevent them from becoming a nuclear threat to the world. I don't believe at this stage, therefore, if I'm president that we need to have a war powers approval or special authorization for military force. The president has that capacity now. I understand that some in the Senate for instance have written letters to the president indicating you should know that a containment strategy is unacceptable. We cannot survive a course of action which would include a nuclear Iran we must be willing to take any and all actions.

All those actions must be on the table.

I can definately find agreement with my conservative friends that hate Romney. He is the wrong big government republican at the wrong time. What about the constitution?

Michael Savage is on the

Michael Savage is on the warpath against Romney for his failure to say anything on fast and furious. He even said a few kind things about Ron Paul. Take it with a grain of salt of course.

Where was his Ron Paul endorsement?

And where is it right now? The media is loaded with phonies and liars who really are hidden mouthpieces for the establishment. They feign outrage but ignore the solution.

He'll never endorse Paul in a

He'll never endorse Paul in a million years although he did urge the GOP convention to dump Romney for someone like Scott Walker. Only a few ago, he was talking about Romney in a big way.

I posted an article about this on Facebook. No comments. Meanwhile, some friends post notes about how much they want a cupcake and get 25 comments. It's sad really.

I Wish I Could Have A Cupcake

But at this point in my life, I have to say my cupcake days are behind me.

The sad thing is, I live two blocks from a bakery that sells what are supposed to be the best cupcakes in town.

Romney is a cupcake

Looks good, hard to swallow, feelings of guilt afterwards.

Obama vs Romney - these count as "choices"?!?!

This is truly sickening. Our country has fallen very far, very fast.

Sad thing is

that the emphasized statement he made has proven to be true - "The president has that capacity now."

People of the US - prepare to defend yourselves!

this election could be just like the last one

if RP is not the RP nominee. The choice again would be between 2 warhawk big spending, Bailout-robbing unbridled psychopathic control freaks.

And Obama Won Because He Was Better At Hiding It
