Report blasts Romney's political record

[Moloch]

BOSTON - Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney's political record is relatively brief — four years as Massachusetts governor and a failed campaign for the U.S. Senate. That's enough, however, for Brian Camenker, a conservative gadfly and longtime thorn in Romney's side, to write a 28-page report that portrays Romney as sympathetic to gay rights and sexual behavior that clashes with his burnished image as a defender of traditional values.

Camenker's report, which has been making the rounds of conservative blogs and Web sites, threatens to undermine Romney's carefully crafted image, portraying him as far more liberal on social issues, particularly gay rights.

Detailed in the report, which includes five pages of footnotes and sources, are several mostly obscure incidents during Romney's four-year tenure as governor: a news release by a state advisory commission on gay youth, a proclamation hailing a gay pride parade, and distribution of a safe sex pamphlet, among others.

Romney's record on such touchstone social issues as homosexuality is crucial as he pitches himself to conservative Republican voters as a bulwark against gay marriage in the only state that allows same-sex marriage.

1. Only a republican would set a strategy based around counting on

the ignorance of his base...

2. The Maoist anti-gay fag-hag Brian Camenker isn't COMPLETELY useless after all.

Sure, he's wrong about gay people causing Global Warming, but everyone makes mistakes.

In one of the best bits I've seen in a while, Ed Helms does a bit that shows the narrow-mindedness of the anti-gay marriage movement.

He even jabs Bill O'Reilly and Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA). The best line came from Brian Camenker (Anti-Gay Activist):

Look, I could sit here and I could probably, you know, find some way of connecting the dots from gay marriage to all of these if I had enough time to do the research.

3. Yes, Massachusetts Does Have The Number One Flip Flopper...

And it ain't Kerry.

4. Wow, how sick are these conservatives.

A safe-sex pamplet can be used as an campaign smear. What is wrong with them.

5. I love the sound of conservatives eating their own in the morning.

Chomp, Chomp, Chomp.

6. The fact that this was done by a fellow conservative makes it extra delicious

:D

7. Camenker is wrong to accuse Romney of standing for ANYTHING

Romney is The Man Who Wasn't There.

Pearly-white smile, nice hair, and expensive suits. But there's nothing of substance inside.

His opinion on ANY topic is whatever seems to be suitable at the moment.

He's not a liar. He's a lie.

[Massachusetts]

8. Fellow Americans,

be forewarned about Mitt "The Flip" Romney.
