Just curious what your thoughts are as to how Romney would be handling things right now after the recent shooting, and other events?
Say something stupid to alienate the vast majority of people, I'm sure.
Because he's actually christian, I think he would have gone after Mental Health reform.
I think he would have gone after the guns. And he would actually have an easier time doing it. He'd have some of the lame brain republicans go along with him and the dems wouldn't object at all. Be glad we have Obongo in....
Romney would have united the pro-gun groups, and he would focus on the fact that our rights shouldn't be infringed. He would have then pressured congress into repealing the Hughes amendment, and he would have laid-down more pressure on congress to pass national, permit-less concealed carry.
Going through a little mental masturbation late in the evening?
Gun Ban but not as fast as O's moving. Once he mentioned anything gun related the R's would line up in a show of unity, maybe. Again it would take longer but we'd still have something by years end
I think he would have acknowlaged Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting as the tragic event it was, but kept his focus on pressing the senate to pass a budget and work on his agenda of job creation and the economy. Can't see him playing the Obama role and trying to use the event for people control.
You probably ought to do your research. That legislation was enacted by thier State Senate, as a joint effort between the pro-gun groups and the anti-gunners. Romney merely acted as an moderator between the two groups. He had no input, did not support the actions other than to help the two groups in an official capacity, and did not take further action. He is PRO-GUN people, always has been.
Romney=SSDG
Jim we both know that that deal ws done by the pro-gun and anti-gun groups in that state and he had nothing to do with it other than acting as a moderator, and to keep the pro-gun guys in the game and make sure thier voices were heard. Whether he signed it or not, that bill was happening in his State Senate. Much like is about to happen to us, when those Dems get organized here and ram this through the State legislature its not going to matter a bit who we have as Governor, and in fact we are going to be screwed because our gorvernor is NOT going to bring the pro-gun guys to the table and is not going to ensure we have our say.
[off-yourself] that is what this thread makes me wanna do. I don't think Romney is some sort of 2A hero, but I don't think he'd be trying to ban guns right now either. If Romney hadn't of signed that bill in MA, you'd all be bitching about what a tyrant he was as governor.
He would of self deported
I heard he lip syncs when he prays [ROFL1]
That i would not have done. My concern is as president he would have signed "reasonable" laws that both parties agreed on. yes he would have dragged his feet in doing so, however no matter who is in office, they would sign some form of gun ban.
It's the fashionable thing to do, like being "environmentally conscious"
He would have been the very same or even worse than Obama is going to be (he might have tried to "please" the other side). If you look back in history, more and worse gun control measures were signed by Repub presidents. The states are the ones to really worry about right now.
I wouldn't expect his response to be much different from Obama's. Romney was, after all, a moderate.
"Democrat" and "Republican" are just two sides of the same coin . . . and the individuals flipping that coin have wanted "justification" for disarming the People for a very long time. Fairly obvious this gun ban was planned out years in advance, and it is doubtful Romney would've objected much given his history as governor.
Do you all think Ron Paul would have been much better?
"Chris Kyle's death seems to confirm that "he who lives by the sword dies by the sword." Treating PTSD at a firing range doesn't make sense." ~ Ron Paul Feb. 4, 2013
Romney would be just as bad if not worse than what we have now. I'm firmly of the opinion that there are VERY few elected officials at this point who have any interest whatsoever in the will of the people (except for bullshit spewing lip-service around election time) or in adhering to the the constitution. I am also of the opinion that almost every one of those motherfuckers has come to think of themselves as the "nobility", and that they can do whatever they want with no reprocussions. Sadly, they seem to be correct in this.....for the moment...
I'm sure Romney would not be flying around the country in the US corporate jet, at about 2 million a stop, campaigning against the US constitution and complaining about government over spending. I believe that Romney would have crossed the isle hugged some democrats, then signed some kind of new gun control law in hopes that the media would say something nice about him. If we had a republican congress, senate and president then the only people talking about gun control right now is the media and democrats. They would be saying republicans are mean heartless war mongers that wont give up a single gun, wait that's what they saying now.
