Romney Supports Affirmative Action?

[catzmeow]

Why is the left so desperate to portray Romney as moderate? Do they think the only agenda left for them is to try to suppress turnout on the republican side?

Romney isn't a moderate. He's a lying opportunist who will say whatever it takes to get elected. One doesn't have to view him from the left to realize this (the view is equally clear from the right, if you have your eyes open).

But you don't mind that Bammy is a lying Leftwing zealot?

I don't like Obama, but he hasn't started any big new expensive wars lately costing trillions of dollars and involving hundreds of thousands of service personnel. As a navy wife whose husband served in Iraq, that makes Obama look markedly better to me than Bush did, and in light of what I suspect Romney would do in Iran.

As we can see affirmative action works perfectly, it gave us our first unqualified black /white president.

Its stupid comments like this, that allow the left to continue to perpetuate the meme that the right doesn't like Obama because he's black.

Neither has Mitt.

...and I live near Offutt Air Force Base and interacting as I do on a daily basis with Militray people from all over the World most of them disagree with you.

You are seeing Obama's Policies at work right now in Lybia, Syria and Egypt and you are kidding yourself if you don't think this crap isn't going to involve us again.

Obama IS Black/White, and he is in no way qualified for the job he holds.

I thank you for your Family's sacrifice.

Has anyone else noticed that when it comes to ANY of Romney's positions, a question mark is required?

And have you noticed that when it comes to ANY of Obama's positions, a question mark is not required, even though he's already been there, done that and despite that it didn't work ... he's going to do it again?

You ever think about the Republican plan beginning in 1981?

Cut taxes for the wealthy and let it trickle down. One little problem. That shit don't work:

And your comment IS stupid, and is exactly what the left point to when they complain about racism and the president.

Just because someone claims something is racist in no way makes it so.

Why do I care what someone like JoeB or Jake says?

I don't.

 

[Pheonixops]

Was Romney supposed to not support Affirmative Action?

Aren't most of his supporters and 'conservative' republicans against Affirmative Action and hiring by quotas? Maybe they don't care if it's women, maybe they only have problems with the other 'groups' who may receive the benefits of Affirmative Action.

 

[Amazed]

It is also a fact that affirmative action gives us less qualified people in important jobs.

Fact.

I don't know. What would a conservative do?

The only conservatives I have seen that want it gone are some of the people I see post here, I have not heard 1 person say that in real life or tv.

Hannity, Limbaugh, Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell, alan west, Neil Boortz, Herman Cain, etc. , al oppose Affirmative Action.

Leftwing intellectuals think that discriminating against one group to favor another group is "fair".

I call it intellectual gymnastics.

It's already gone, bro. It only affects government contracting these days.

But, let me spin it like this. If Romney bragged about not knowing any qualified blacks to put into his cabinet, and went to the NAACP to find people, and they gave him a binder filled with resumes of competent black men and women, and Romney plugged a bunch of those folks into cabinet jobs because they were black, would you think he even has the faintest clue what it means to be black and what is needed to address America's racial issues, or is committed to ending racism?

Or, would you think he was just a different kind of racist?

If it's already gone, why do some 'conservatives' refer to President Obama as the "Affirmative Action President"?

All a bunch of double standards. That's all their mindset is based on.

If blacks are so fucking equal...well, prove it. We should give them an education and a chance to do just that.

NOT gives them a first inline pass over someone with better grades.

if Obama's mother had married a white guy the son would never have been president

You don't know that. I think that your assertion is a silly one, if it was so "true" (affirmative action), why didn't Jesse Jackson or Alan Keyes win? How come Herman Cain didn't win the primaries? How many other Presidents that were Black or part Black are there?

Obama even admitted to benefitting from affirmative action.

So I guess his saying that is racist too?
