Classless Liberals GLEEFUL Over Rush Limbaugh’s Cancer Announcement, Cheering On Cancer

"The Political Tragedy of Mitt Romney"
The Utah senator's vote to convict Trump is an example of why he lost in 2012. |
"That said, despite grasping the problem, Romney is a deeply flawed messenger who is unable to bring himself to do what needs to be done in order to get back to those principles — partly because he has been on both sides of every important issue. Trump, character flaws and his own flip-flopping notwithstanding, has been willing to fight the Left.
Explaining why Mitt Romney really voted to convict Trump . . . "Former staffers on the Romney campaign are rebuking their former boss, saying he's "motivated by bitterness and jealously." That's somewhat true, but it's not the full story. As much as Romney craves hero status among the Georgetown set, he hates that the very people who backed his presidential run also stood behind a vulgar reality TV host.
"The difference is that Trump won. Romney will never forgive Republicans for making that happen."
American Greatness: "Mitt Romney, Bedwetter" "The senator from Utah cast aside concerns about the meaning of the vague allegation of “abuse of power” to slake his thirst for vengeance. Now that he’s drunk too many draughts of payback, break out the rubber sheets."
Mitt Romney’s Mormon faith motivated him to vote for Trump’s removal from office
Romney said to Chris Wallace of Fox, “As a senator-juror, I swore an oath before God to exercise impartial justice. I am profoundly religious. My faith is at the heart of who I am,” Romney said at the start of his speech. Clearly moved, he paused for several long moments and took a breath before continuing, “I take an oath before God as enormously consequential.”. Has Mitt been consistent with this?

• Romney when running for Governor of Massachusetts in 2002: "I will preserve and protect a woman's right to choose and am devoted and dedicated to honoring my word in that regard."
• Romney in 2011: "I support the reversal of Roe v. Wade, because it is bad law"
• Romney in February 2012: Happy to accept Donald Trump's endorsement of his campaign for president
• Romney in February 2018: Happy to accept Donald Trump's endorsement of his campaign for U.S. Senator

I believe Mitt Romney is motivated by bitterness and jealously that @realDonaldTrump accomplished what he has failed to do multiple times. His desire to pander to the chattering class has gotten the best of him...again.

I could go on. Romney goes wherever the winds of popular opinion take him. If Trump's popularity starts surging, or Romney's approval takes a hit after this ill-advised op-ed, watch how he turns on a dime.
Nancy Pelosi should resign

"Tensions for this address were high. The House impeachment managers sat as a group in front of the president as a reminder of the ongoing trial. That can be excused as a silent but pointed message from the Democrats. Trump hardly covered himself with glory by not shaking hands with Pelosi."... More

Pelosi at the SOTU
Trump’s Magic SOTU Speech Highlighted by Punch-Drunk Pelosi . . . "Emotion from tales and images of lost soldiers, a martyred young aid worker, a young Black girl seeking better education, a lost brother to an illegal alien, a premature one-pound baby, a 100-year-old Tuskegee Airman and great-grandson, a returning soldier to his family, etc.
Notice Pelosi pre-ripped the pages just before the President's conclusion.
. . . "This isn't really all that surprising. We all knew that Pelosi did that as a stunt. It is why she ripped the speech in sections. And when she did it, she made sure to change directions. It was clear she was doing it so every camera could see, at least at some point in time" . . .
So Nancy Pelosi planned out her toddler-like rip stunt all along
. . . "According to Pelosi's media allies at NBC, she wanted you to believe that it all came in an impulsive moment of pique . See?
Pelosi Was Mandated to Preserve Trump’s Signed Copy of His SOTU Speech — She Tore It Up Instead . . . "Upon entering the House chamber President Trump handed Speaker Pelosi a signed copy of his State of the Union speech as is required.
"According to Carl Hibgie — US law requires that Pelosi preserve any official government document:". . . "According to 18 U.S. Code § 2071."
Her drop the mic moment will have a lasting impact on the House. . . . While many will celebrate her trolling of the president, she tore up something far more important than a speech. Pelosi has shredded decades of tradition, decorum, and civility that the nation could use now more than ever. The House speaker is more than a political partisan, particularly when carrying out functions such as the State of the Union address. A president appears in the House as a guest of both chambers of Congress. The House speaker represents not her party or herself but the entirety of the chamber. At that moment, she must transcend her own political ambitions and loyalties." . . . Jonathan Turley
