Who Does Mitt Romney Think He Is Fooling?


Does Mitt Romney really think he is going to get the Republican nomination running as a liberal Democrat? First Romney paid the usual RINO deference to the global warming crowd, saying of course he thought the world was getting warmer and yes humans were the problem etc. We noted that on this blog. Now he has refused to sign the Susan B. Anthony group's anti abortion pledge. Citing "unintended consequences" as the reason for his refusal. Romney states:


“As much as I share the goals of the Susan B. Anthony List, its well-meaning pledge is overly broad and would have unintended consequences. That is why I could not sign it,” Romney writes. “It is one thing to end federal funding for an organization like Planned Parenthood; it is entirely another to end all federal funding for thousands of hospitals across America. That is precisely what the pledge would demand and require of a president who signed it.”


SBA List President Marjorie Dannenfelser in responded:


“He chooses to identify non-existent legislation that would defund hospitals as a reason not to sign. Defunding hospitals has never been considered by Congress, is not part of public debate, and is not part of the pledge. 95 percent of abortions are performed outside of hospitals. Instead, we outlined existing pieces of pro-life legislation that address taxpayer funding of abortion. We would like to know where he stands on each measure,”


Fortunately for Romney this kind of in party bickering doesn't usually make the papers but it will come out before anyone casts a vote and it will cost him dearly.
