    LET'S RETURN UNITED STATES TO A TRUE DEMOCRACY

     

    In my opinion, it should be obvious those in any of the following groups that the Romney/Ryan team’s continual pathological flip flopping should raise a bright red flag. What would their course be if they win the White House? Do any reasonable people believe they would not continue to honor their Grover Norquist no tax increase pledge, or abandon the goals of their radical tea party base who helped gain them the White House and control the base of the Republican party?

     

    • Mitt Romney’s designated 47% of “undeserving Americans” including active military and veterans; retirees; those in nursing homes; minority; ethnic; disabled; younger and disabled citizens.
    • Paul Ryan’s 30% of so called takers on the dole.
    • All of the 96.92% of households earning less $200,000 (per 2011 census date) plus the large number of households earning between $200,000 and $250,000 (no 2011 census data available).
    • Women who do not want their right to choose based on decisions made by them, their Doctor and their God rather than by the personhood bill sponsored by Paul Ryan and Todd Aiken (http://afffbk.dads.census.gov/html/busy.html) that could criminalize in vitro fertilization, or imprison women or their Doctor’s, while a rapist might escape punishment depending whether he committed “legitimate rape” or “forcible rape”.
    • Those with pre-existing conditions that would not be covered by the Romney plan to replace Medicare with a voucher plan, unless you believe his recent flip flop to please his audience.
    • Low family income students relying on Pell grants, who might find them no longer available.
    • Those relying on Medicaid who might find it no longer available.
    • Those who believe in the bi-partisan sponsored Dream Act, who would likely see their hopes of it being permanently implemented smashed by the Romney/Ryan team who support self-deportation, and bigger fences across our borders.
    • Those who believe there should be no voter intimidation (http://www.truethevote.org/) or disenfranchisement of active military and veterans; older; minority; ethnic; disabled and younger voters by hastily implemented Voter ID laws designed specifically to win the election for Mitt Romney. (http://thinkprogress.org/election/2012/09/19/877981/sponsor-of-pennsylvania-voter-id-law-defends-romney-says-lazy-people-also-shouldnt-vote/) As Pennsylvania’s strict voter ID law returns to the lower court for reconsideration, its original sponsor, Rep. Daryl Metcalfe (R-PA), told KDKA Radio on 9/19/2012 that his law will only disenfranchise “lazy” people, like the ones Mitt Romney was talking about in the leaked video of a private fundraiser.
    • Those who believe it is not right for Republican lawmakers around the country to have tried to eliminate or modify early-voting periods for the past 4 years to disenfranchise voters as in Ohio.(http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/31/ohio-obama-early-voting-lawsuit_n_1821882.html) and Florida (http://thefloridavoter.org/resources/issues/hb-1355-elections-law).
    .
    Consider the following information supplied by the right leaning Fox News station for nine different examples of Romney’s claims or suggestions that were either falsehoods or misleading claims:
