Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney vetoed H. 1252, the Dissection Choice bill

successful ploy to kill bills and not allow any overrides.

Whether you support Ron Paul, a Green, a socialist, libertarian, Kucinich, Jerry
Brown or other candidate,
here are some reasons to oppose
Romney, whose 1/4 of a billion in personal
wealth came from predatory corporate raiding.

Does Romney own 15 or 3 homes or somewhere
in between?• A home in La Jolla, Calif., an affluent ocean front neighborhood
adjoining San Diego, Calif. This property, bought by the couple in 2008 for $12
million and assessed at $8.7 million in 2010

• A condominium in Ann Romney's name in Belmont, Mass., assessed at $773,000.

• A home in Wolfeboro, N.H., on Lake Winnipesaukee, assessed at $4.3 million.
Ann Romney is listed as the owner of the 2.3-acre property, purchased for $2.5
million in 1997. A second, 6.3-acre property nearby, also in Ann Romney's name,
appears to be a combination boathouse and stable with living quarters. It is
assessed at $2.5 million. News reports indicate that the Romneys upgraded their
Wolfeboro property with tennis courts and other amenities.[/quote]

WAR PROMOTION
1. Mitt Romney has supported every illegal unethical bloody war in which the US
regime's puppet presidents
have involved the people against their will.
A. Iraq He asked for 50,000 more troops for Iraq. When asked if his own five
sons would be going, the answer was no.
B. Libya
Romney supports
the petroplutocrat grab for Libyan oil
abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2011/03/romney-supports-military-action-in-\
libya-criticizes-president-for-decision-making/
Those who call themselves fiscal conservatives want smaller government, they
say, while promoting the expansion of wars which hemorrhage the blood of
their own citizens as well as Afghans, Iraqis, Libyans, etc. as well as
hemorrhaging the stolen tax dollars of the American poor. They are either
uninformed or prevaricating. indymedia.org

EXECUTION
2. Mitt Romney is a would be executioner. In his only stint in politics, a 4
year term as Massachusetts governor before repudiated by the people of that
state, he tried to bring back judicial and prosecutorial murder (execution).

RACISM
While Romney has justifiably criticized Rick Perry whose hunting camp
was named Niggerhead, Romney himself belongs to a church which did not
admit blacks as elders until threatened by an NAACP boycott.

www.naacp.org

A caller to NPR said that when Romney was a Mormon missionary in France he
refused to baptize blacks,
who at that time by the LDS Church were considered the seeds of Cain.

The moderator questioned the veracity of the call. However Romney was a
missionary in the 60's. It was not
til the 70's that the LDS Church began to admit blacks as elders.

ROMNEY'S PREDATORY COROPRATE RAIDER TACTICS

1. closing factories
2. firing people
3. outsourcing jobs overseas
4. pension fund raiding
5. assets selling
6. running companies into mass debt...
while creating golden parachutes for himself and a few other top execs

ROMNEY'S CENSORSHIP
a. When the Dixie Chicks, number 1 in the charts, criticized the Republican
president, Clear Channel dumped them entirely.
b. Under Romney's directing, Clear Channel continues to have 99% warjocks
who cut off peace callers.

ROMNEY'S OUTSOURCING
Brian Williams of NBC questioned Romney about Bain Capital's outsourcing
and job downsizing in the companies they bought.

ROMNEY'S OFFSHORE BANKING
[quote]
democracynow.org
Mitt Romney, has a history profiting from offshore tax havens. In 2008, the Los
Angeles Times exposed how Romney, as head of Bain Capital, utilized shell
companies and two offshore tax havens in Bermuda and the Cayman Islands to help
eligible investors avoid paying U.S. taxes. The tax-friendly jurisdictions
helped attract billions of investment dollars to Bain Capital. Los Angeles Times
reporter Bob Drogin spoke to us about this in 2008.

BOB DROGIN: A side light of that was Bain Capital, which today has assets of
about $60 billion — that's their — the number that they officially say — and
about a third of that comes from these offshore operations that Romney set up
when he was still there, in particular, companies that are set up — really,
they're just mail drops, they're mailboxes; they don't have any staff, they
don't have any operations. The one on Grand Cayman Island is a Post Office Box
60D, I think, on Grand Cayman Island, and the ones in Bermuda are also at a
lawyer's office. But they've got them in other places as well. And they bring in
somewhere above $25 billion a year.[/quote]

MORMON CHURCH
One poll reported that 25% of Americans will not vote for a Mormon. This is
true for a variety of reasons:
a. The Mormon history of polygamy in the 19th
Century,
b. the racist past of the church some of whose members in the 19th Century
murdered blacks who entered Utah (written of by A Conan Doyle) and who were not
admitted as elders until the NAACP threatened a boycott
c. the LDS church
pattern of giving charity virtually only to Mormons,
d. the conservative politics of most Mormons which
include a strong prowar cast,
e. the Mormon church has a history continuing to this day of disempowering women
f. the treatment of animals, such as the Mormon
church's operation of the biggest cattle concentration camp in Florida.

FENCE STRADDLING
Romney straddles the fence on nearly every controversial issue, including
the prochoice prolife one

MITT ROMNEY OPPOSES MEDICAL MARIJUANA
Just as prohibition of alcohol in the US from 1920 to 1933 caused the birth of
crime syndicate bootleggers and many deaths and blindness from wood alcohol,
so the repressive laws against marijuana have caused hundreds of billions
to be spent in federal bureaucracies of the ATF and others, bureaucracies which
in the 1920's and now kill people. In addition current laws cause ecocidal
poisons to be sprayed from the air to eradicate marijuana.

WHAT IS THE SOLUTION?

If Obama survives Democratic primary challenges from Dennis Kucinich and others
kucinich.us and if Ron Paul is not the Republican nominee, Ron Paul
should start a third party movement. His numbers are constantly being downsized
by 'polls' conducted by warmonger media. In a 3 way race, Paul could
become president. www.ronpaul2012.com His numbers are higher than
Kucinich's. Constant monitoring
of companies such as Election Systems and Software (involved in the last
2 presidential election thefts as well as many House, Senate, governor race
and other thefts) is needed. blackboxvoting.org
