Is Romney the only decent Republican remaining?

[PCIntern]

His interview about the matter was candid and forthright, and quite frankly, right on the money. He called Santos a sick puppy, and said he didn’t deserve to be there, shaking hands with senators and the president.

It is almost hard to believe how far we’ve come in such a short period of time. I have been so traumatized by this entire turn of events that I actually remember the first time I was horrified hearing something on a national program when the day after President Clinton was elected, Somebody said that they were going to put their flag away for four years because this was not their country. Little did I reckon that 30 years later, the whole Republican party would be in bed with fascists, dictators, and former KGB leaders. I can only imagine what my parents would be saying if they were alive today. My guess is that they would be applying for renewal of their passports and urging me to leave while I still can.

1. No he's a Scumbag too

How is it everyone has forgotten about Myth Romney's campaign of lies. Vulture capitalism buying and liquidating companies and costing thousands their jobs and the ultimate kicker for me, him putting his dog in a crate strapped to the roof of his SUV while on a family vacation. What kind of freakin sadistic animal does that!

[Volaris]

2. I was going to say, that's stretching the definition of 'decent'..

[PCIntern]

4. Yes. But look what we are looking at

Insane scumbag fascists who counsel every horrifying thought process as acceptable

Yes, Romney is the epitome of the venture capitalist, but that’s America, and that’s a country in which we live. We all patronize stores and firms run by guys just like him or worse.

[Volaris]

5. Oh I agree..as far as the MAGAs are concerned, he's a catholic Saint heh...

But being able to not piss yourself in public, shouldn't be the standard...

[wnylib]

15. I would not call Romney decent.

I would only say that he is more rational than MAGAs.

But that doesn't take much.

[hatrack]

3. By GOP standards of "decent", yes, but that excludes pretty much everybody elses' standards.

6. Ask the poor dog who's crate he strapped to the roof of the suv

Poor thing.

[Skittles]

7. fuck Romney too

with repukes it is always like picking the better Menendez brother

8. When He Caucuses With The Democrats, Sir, Then He'd Be A Decent Republican

You get no points for noise. You've actually got to do something, take a stand against the defiance of democracy itself which is the one goal of the Republican party today. That, and people like Romney paying less in taxes....

[PCIntern]

10. As I stated above,

America is made up of these capitalists. Last I looked, he wasn’t indicted for anything, other than the dog on top of the car he’s not particularly abusive, and at least maintains a polite style when speaking to the press about his views and the opposition . That is what qualifies him as a decent Republican. As far as his policies go, that’s another story entirely.

It is acceptable to give an individual credit for certain aspects of their character, when appropriate, and disapprove of them when appropriate. You know, when I suggested some weeks ago here that we need to go on the offensive, and do to them what they do to us man people here told me how we’re so much better than all that. That we can’t stigmatize the enemy the way they stigmatize us. Now all of a sudden we’re not allowed to say anything good about anybody because that’s heresy. I believe that you have to pick and choose your fights carefully with this crowd. The President did an exemplary job of that last night, and it puts the other side on the defensive. But what do I know, I just work here…

12. Fair Enough, Sir

He would be a 'Rockefeller Republican' in the parlance of youth, and these weren't half bad on many matters. Unfortunately at this point, such of that sort as survive in the party simply aid the radicals who ousted them from power. They remain loyal votes in almost every instance. Their presence lends a patina of respectability to even the worst of the radicals.They do not actively hamper the radicals' program, as 'moderate' Democrats do to policies popular with our voters nationwide.

21. Agreed in toto

9. Mitt Romney has the distinction of...

...being the first presidential candidate to openly use a blatant racist epithet in front of millions of people in a televised presidential debate in 2012.

And this country is still reeling from the after-shocks.

Sources say the screaming orb might be the only potential candidate that would tap into Republicans' deep-seated, seething fury after this election.

11. Romney

I’d take Lisa Murkowski over him.

[Samrob]

13. Hmmm...let me think...thinking....

Sorry, no one comes to mind.

[SheltieLover]

14. Decent republican is oxymoronic.

He is likely campaigning.

[wnylib]

17. Perfect description.

[SheltieLover]

19. Romney is scum. Mr. 47% who strapped his dog in a crate to the roof of his car!

Waste of oxygen, imho.

[wnylib]

23. Couldn't agree more.

I also remember his blatant lies in a debate with Obama and how Obama got righteously angry and put him in his place when he responded.

[SheltieLover]

24. Obama handled this moron masterfully!

Romney is a qpuke, so if his lips are moving, he's lying.

Gawd, they're disgusting.

[Wounded Bear]

16. I'm thinking that's a pretty low bar...

He's a bit more sane than the Magas, but he's still a far right religionist.

[Javaman]

18. claiming that romney is "decent" just shows how far we have fallen.

he's just as much an opportunist shithead as the rest. he's just pissed he doesn't get all the "accolades" he thinks he deserves by trying to be the "elder statesmen". the problem with him is simple, he's obscenely transparent. A whole lot of nothing in a suit.

[Mr. Sparkle]

20. Look at him with his 2 best friends in congress last night

[PCIntern]

22. Exactly my point

We have fallen so far down the hole…but this is all calculated. Let me put it this way, I dislike him intensely, but I don’t startgoing to projectile vomiting mode when he starts to speak.

[SheltieLover]

25. Silver tongued snake.

I see his name & think Mr. 47% & how he strapped his family dog in a crate atop his car for an extended road trip.

Waste of oxygen, imo.

Grandstanding. Likely campaigning.
