With the news about Fred Thompson’s imminent campaign filling the last several posts here at TRF, I wanted to shift gears. –Matt
Soren Dayton has kept up on the consistent inconsistencies of former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney.
Romney stated last year that he supported the Bush agenda on immigration, as well as the McCain-Kennedy legislation that would put the 11 million undocumented workers on a long path to citizenship. Conservative anti-immgration groups are now blasting yet another Romney flip-flop. (Read more of Mitt’s “Mitt-representations” on immigration here.)
Supporters are trying to use a 1994 flier to show their man Mitt has always been a conservative, but it may not have the desired effect. Says Dayton:
[…] Romney’s image has several problems. The first one is that he’s a simple “flip-flopper”. But the second is that he’s a sleazy panderer. The car salesman thing. That he will tell you whatever you need to hear for you to support him. That he has no principles. That’s what really struck me with this.
And finally, Dayton asks, “Did Romney belittle a veteran on Memorial Day?” See for yourself.
Updated 5/31/07, 11:11am: Romney outlined his foreign policy stance from the July/August edition of Foreign Affairs, published by the Council on Foreign Relations. Doubling the Guantanamo Bay detention center, however, did not make it in.
Something to say?
