It was God that said to "multiple and replenish the earth" and I have never come across anything that says God has rescinded that commandment. I still think God is in charge even when men want to take that role upon themselves.

I'd argue that if Romney were in office today unemployment would be 2% pts below its current level. Look what he's done for every bottom line that he's touched (think Bain, Olympics, Mass Gov.).

Its the US economy that makes us strong and its too bad we don't have his fiscal savvy in the White House today...

Reagan suffered from impaired memory some of the time he was in office. As Governor, he harmed our public education system & cut the number of people who graduted as professionals, especially in medical science. He was automatically a regent. With Catholic regent Mrs. Hearst who also preferred church schools, he imposed tuition on California's Land Grant colleges. His banker pals made high interest student loans. After graduation, many raise their fees to pay sooner those student loans. He closed most public health agencies. His pals built their own med centers & continue to profit from Medical-Medicare patients. Pres. Reagan banned using taxes to help poor nations regulate populations. So they produced more pauperized, starving kids. Along came church missionary groups on TV, begging money to "feed the poor." 15% of the money stayed with tax-exempt groups. RR said the pope guided his presidency. As Gov. he cut number of inspectors on public works projects. Men died when improperly-braced trenches collapsed. A young prisoner died when, ordered to change a big glass water-cooler bottle, had it break. He bled to death because there were too few guards to cover the big facility. Like Mitt, RR attacked civil liberties.

Romney said his aftitude toward abortion has hardened. He's against stem cell research & cloning. He says that's like creating life to kill it. He adopted the Catholic Church view 100%. (Websearch "Is Mitt Romney anti-abortion?") The US Goverhment had to make his church abandon polygamy. That's the system most like Islam, where women produce unpaid labor of children & women, to enrich male family members and the church. Romney & his views doom the GOP. Why? Because in 1973 the Supreme Court forced the US government to stop enforcing Canon Law that bans abortion. Since then, people use their civil right to regulate family size. Taxpayers are pushier about protesting the way we're forced to provide sustenance to unwed poor single moms. And to big families who refuse to use contraception and abortion, for fear of "going to Hell." The Democratic Party inattentively lets Dixiecrats steal Party assets, as moles, doing ProLife work. Obama swiftly made a law forcing bosses to pay women the same wage for same work. He was a One Man Equal Rights Amendment force, doing it without an amendment. Families of working women should be thanking him for that.

The Romney speech, containing the telltale words "weakness and impotence, shows why we need more well-educated, irreligious women in public office. The word "impotence" refers to male virility. It should have nothing to do with forming & implementing US foreign policy. Archived speeches by Reagan, Nixon and GW Bush preserve the fact they equated their personal level of virility as being an essential part of their conduct of government affairs. Since Nixon resigned to escape being tried & jailed for crimes in office, books are available with reference to his taped conversations, memos and interviews. I was surprised to learn, from Anthony Summers, "The Arrogance of Power," that Nixon & Bebe Rebozo, one of his financial advisers, were gay lovers from about 1951. When Nixon "faced down" foreign leaders, he bragged about being macho. Readers will be amazed as I was, to learn his aides and most of his cabinet agreed he was so mentally disturbed that they agreed not to obey any of his commands without total agreement. They may even have "fixed" the briefcase so the button to order nuclear war would not work if he pressed it. I very much question Romney's reference to impotence.

I have read it in its entirety. No way anyone would come away thinking the man has no substance. That would be a lie. Disagree if you want, but don't lie. The speech was Reaganesque, maybe better. No Repub frontrunner could have given a finer speech on the subject, not even Gingrich. Lorie, my dear, sorry to tell you that your comment shows that you have no substance.

Romney has the best analysis I have seen on Middle-East conflicts. Hope Obama got this message. You know his advisors are tracking Romney's every word to prepare for the next election. He's the one and they know it. Their only hope is to implement his suggestions and strengthen the nation and take the sting out of his words. But he won't, its just not who Obama is. He will continue to weaken the nation because his heart is not in strengthening the US but in moderating with the rest of the world and removing any American exceptionalism. Pity. He has virtually guaranteed he will be a one-term president.
