Romney warns of "extraordinary challenge" to preserve American democracy

BidenPresident said:
Romney told the crowd that he has a chart in his Senate office tracing the history of civilizations over the past 4,000 years. He said it is a reminder of how they can rise and collapse, and of how unusual American democracy is in global history.

From the Mongol Empire to the Roman Empire, Romney said, autocracy is the chart's "default setting," with authoritarian leaders at every turn.

"We are really the only significant experiment in democracy, and preserving liberal democracy is an extraordinary challenge," Romney said, according to the attendees, who gathered at the Hilton Hotel in McLean.

Funny how leftists who hated and lied about Romney when he ran against Obama now love him when he sounds like a triggered Trump hating loon.

Let's be painfully clear about this; Romney, Cheney and Adam Kinzinger's political careers are over in the Republican Party. They might as well join with the Democratic Party of Lying Jackasses.

Another note for Romney; America isn't an empire you dumb cunt. Learn the meaning of words before misusing them. I am so disappointed in this asshole. I'm embarrassed I voted for him. ;)

DOES MORMON MULTIMILLIONAIRE MITZI KNOW HE'S NOT A UKRAINIAN?​


RINO Romney's "Treason" Smear of Tulsi Gabbard is False and Noxious, But Now Typifies U.S. Discourse



The Founders limited "treason" in the Constitution due to grave concerns it would be weaponized to criminalize dissent: exactly how the term is now routinely used.

The crime of "treason” is one of the gravest an American citizen can commit, if not the gravest. It is one of the few crimes other than murder for which execution is still a permissible punishment under both U.S. federal law and the laws of several states.

The framers of the U.S. Constitution were so concerned about the temptation to abuse this term — by depicting political dissent as a criminalized betrayal of one's country — that they chose to define and limit how this crime could be applied by inserting this limiting paragraph into the Constitution itself; reflecting the gravity and temptation to abuse accusations of "treason,” it is the only crime they chose to define in the U.S. Constitution. Article III, Section 3 of the Constitution states:

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

Treason was the only crime to be explicitly defined and limited by the Founders because they sought “to guard against the historic use of treason prosecutions by repressive governments to silence otherwise legitimate political opposition.

(That someone is an American war veteran or current member of the U.S. military, like Lt. Col. Gabbard, does not and should not immunize them from criticism. That goes without saying.

Members of the military are just as prone to error or other failings as anyone else.

But — contrary to the current understanding — there is an enormous difference between merely criticizing someone and accusing the person of being a traitor and/or a Russian agent.

And it does seem advisable to expect that people who constantly cheer U.S. wars and demand that others besides themselves and their children go fight and die in them — such as Hillary and Romney — at least think twice before accusing those who have volunteered to fight for their country in those wars of being guilty of treason or being an agent of a foreign power.

Maybe one of you water-heads can explain how a guy who accuses a fellow American of treason for disagreeing with him over Ukraine is a champion of American democracy.

I didn't, I wanted Herman Cain that year and Romney was a terrible choice for the GOP. The US was probably blessed with the re-election of Obama over that jackass.

Something about Romney just feels very "off" to me. :dunno:

Great question. Well, during the debates with Obama he got Russia right. Obama made fun of him and got a laugh from the audience. He was dead right about that. Democrats are never right about anything. Obama never could get anything right either. ;)

Obama: 'The 1980s are now calling to ask for their foreign policy back'

Good point, and guess whose minions are running bungling Biden's foreign policy in Ukraine right now?

I voted for Herman in the primaries. But as usual, I had to pick the lesser of two morons and Romney had to be better than Obama. :laugh:

Now explain to me why anyone should listen to the left about "science" when they cannot ever tell the difference between a male and a female?

He's hit his pinnacle when he was the governor of Massachusetts. He should have stayed there.

I was disgusted about how Herman was done and didn't vote. Especially after hearing it was Republicans that kneecapped his campaign.
