Okay, found my other hand


Posted: Nov 12, 2012

I found another website.  Just as I'm going to be open minded about issues democrats proprose I am also going to be equally open minded abut issues republicans proprose. 

Since I didn't see any posts below (and granted I've been out this weekend), I found antoher site equally interesting thought I would share. 

I still feel same way conseverate, liberal and indepdent depending on what issue is being discussed.

But here is the other side I found if anyone is interested.   

By the way, I thought whoever wrote the post of finding out who wrote the articles/websit is an excellent suggestion.

I sent both of the sites you found to my husband - grits

I foresee some interesting conversations. Thanks for doing the legwork and pulling these up for us.

Honestly? I'm not impressed with them. Romney adopted - severely conservative positions and then

[ In Reply To ..]
dropped those positions (sort of) and later adopted a new set that were mostly very close to Obama's when he apparently thought those were selling better. At the same time he was cozying up to radical social conservatives, including his VP choice, and to neocons in foreign policy, including putting them on his own foreign policy team.

The general views of this Dems for Romney group are close enough to my own, though not their reasoning in most cases. But bottom line, how anyone could feel they knew what this man was about and why they would trust him to come through in any particular way is beyond me. Especially when what they want is also essentially what President Obama and Democrats in Congress were already working toward. (And the Republican Congress specifically opposing.)

Of special note is the complete lack of attention to Romney's religion. Mormonism is a very socially conservative, fundamentalist religion, incompatible with most social positions held by typical Democrats, and Romney (Mr. "If you're going to have women working") is a devout Mormon, adhering completely, by his own statements, to its doctrines.

That's all I'd strictly require Dems for Romney to consider regarding religion, considering our current mindset that probing into religious belief is bad manners, even for someone running for Commander in Chief. Neverthess, since I'm on this hobby horse now, I would have liked them to consider that, as a devout Mormon, Romney believes the Second Coming is very close and that his duty is to prepare the earth for Christ's return. This isn't a secret. It's who they are. The Church of Latter Day Saints was created by God specifically to do this work for Him.

Given this larger job, into which Romney would have had to fit the duties of the President, what role might the prophets and other leaders in SLC have had in determining his actions as President? This could help explain the fact that he didn't seem committed to any of the "official" positions he vacillated among as he found expedient. (I learned to wonder about all this from his behavior. I did not start this election with these questions.)

BTW, looking back now, Mr. Romney's religious views and possible expectations for the future might certainly explain why he was so totally shocked and completely unprepared for the possibility that he could lose this election... For a pragmatic man, well known for his planning skills, this is very hard to explain. Until you consider the religion factor, and then a very obvious explanation makes perfect sense of his behavior. We'll probably never know, but I felt real sympathy for what he might be going through anyway.

Such a prejudice view - from such a person person

The post you replied clearly detailed - both the logic and reasoning

used to draw its conclusion, a process that specifically argues against your invalid one-line statement, which, on the other hand, did succeed in demonstrating misconceptions about the meaning of the word "prejudice."

Second-hand SmokeAug 10, 2011
I'm getting stale cigarette smoke coming  through the air vent in my apartment, from the people in the apt. above me.   Our building property manager won't do a thing, and I do NOT want to approach my neighbors personally, cause I'm not good at this kind of thing and would probably make things worse. Would an air cleaner or purifier do anything for this kind of problem?  I'd buy anything within reason, if it would help reduce the smoke smell. Any advice most ...

You Got To Hand It To Donald TrumpMay 05, 2011
Earlier today I was reading that regulars at the Indy 500 were really disgusted that Donald Trump had been asked to drive the pace car. Some had considered dropping out and others were trying to get him dropped. Now it appears that Mr. Trump has decided it would be "inappropriate" for him to drive the pace car, because he may be soon announcing that he is running for President.  I used to think he was fun to watch when he pulled pranks and talked endlessly about how great he himself is, bu ...

Second Hand Smoke ... At 6:30 Am ExcerciseJun 08, 2010
With all due respect to smokers' rights, really, if you are walking for exercise at 6:30 am on a 1.7 mile running course (2 laps is a bit over 5k), please refrain form lighting up and smoking out all the runners? I swear, I was sucking in second hand smoke for about 1/4 mile as I was running, as I approached a couple doing their "power" walk. They were smoking! I appreciate that they want to get into shape. I appreciate that smoking while walking is better than smoking while sit ...

Bilateral Hand Pain On AwakeningJan 06, 2013
I have had CTS for over 20 years but a new symptom has me questioning RA or OA. I'm waking up with pretty bad hand and wrist pain, numbness and extreme weakness bilaterally. I could not even turn on the light this morning due to lack of sensation. It is most in the right (and I sleep on the right side) but in both hands. The most affected fingers are thumb, index and middle. Lying there moving the hands doesn't help but once and get up and move around the pain subsides quickly. ...

President Accused Of 'sleight Of Hand' To Protect Self From ImpeachmentDec 04, 2014

Gibbs Mocks Palin, Reads Grocery List Off His HandFeb 10, 2010
 In a dig at former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs took time during Tuesday's briefing to read a mock grocery list that he had written in pen on his left hand. "Eggs, milk and bread," Gibbs read from the black ink stains on his palm, claiming he was going to "make pancakes" for his son Ethan. "I crossed out bread," he added, pointing to the line that, indeed, x-ed bread off the list."I also wrote down hope and change just in case I forgot that word. ...

Found Something In My PieJan 30, 2012
Last night I purchased a pie from a large chain grocery store that bakes on the premises and whose reputation is very good. I bought it for the others in my house, but decided to taste it this morning after they raved about it. I put my fork around what felt like a large chocolate chunk, put it in my mouth, and it turned out to be a metal frosting decorator tip. I didn't bite it or swallow it, as I was going to let it melt in my mouth to just savor the one bite I was going to indulge in. ...

Each state delegation has one vote. The Senate would elect the Vice ...
