Ryan is vicious..."

Another entry in my journal: Mitt Romney can't stop

radical Capitalism owning our government. "For Pete's sake, I can't have illegals working for me, I'm running for office", Romney said during an earlier campaign. As Governor of Massachusetts, a liberal state, he was pro-choice, as a presidential candidate eager to maintain support from the far-right, he's pro-life. He complained it had been a serious mistake for Obama to issue a firm date by which our troops would leave Afghanistan, then at last week's debate, committed to the same promise. Imagine the Chinese Premier meeting with a President Romney: "Mr President, I understand you said you were going to charge us with currency manipulation..." "Oh no Mr Premier, I said if you ever do manipulate the currency..." Or the Russian President: "You called Russia America's number one geopolitical threat" "Mercy no, President Putin, that would be the height of silliness for me to say that." Romney's penchant to say whatever he thinks he politically needs to is not an issue of veracity, it is an issue of character. It suggests an absence of core values, except religion. Wait until a Vice-President Paul Ryan would begin to exercise his influence over Romney. He would make Dick Cheney look like an amateur. Ryan has a core value; it is atheist Ayn Rand's laissez-faire, radical Capitalism. Same with Grover Norquist, the author of a no-tax pledge he intimidates cowardly politicians into signing. He has a core value; it is Rand's laissez-faire, radical Capitalism. Few taxes, no regulations, and government no larger than enough to have an army, a domestic police force, and a system of judges to make sure the takers fulfill their contracts with the elite producers. Radical Capitalism will own our government. A President without core values can not stop it's sweep.
