I was caught up in Romney fever for a time - cougarguard.com — unofficial BYU Cougars / LDS sports, football, basketball forum and message board

and then when his "we should double Gitmo" statement came out, I suddenly realized something: almost nothing distinguishes Mitt from Bush.

The guys on cougarboard couldn't even tell me how Mitt differed from Bush on the issues.

If you really, really look at the facts: there is very little to suggest that Mitt is principled, and A LOT of evidence to suggest that he is not.

Sorry Mitt, I am off the bandwagon.

Congratulations! But this begs the question, is there a better bandwagon?

Sorry, but posting the same thing here as you did on Cougarboard doesn't change the fact that you are being extremely disingenuous when you claim you were caught up in Romney fever. We all know better than that.

I'm not lying. I was going to donate money to him. And then I was going to trumpet the fact that I had, and Tex and Snipe had not.

I've never voted for a democrat for President, and voted for Bush twice.

Shows you how stupid I am.

Well, I can easily see why. You were simply motivated to annoy Tex and Snipe, not by Romney himself.

No. It's called two birds with one stone. Trust me, I don't spend money to just annoy Tex and Snipe.

Jefe, on the other hand....

You are kinda stupid if you think you know to whom and how much I've donated.

LOL. Nice sig line there, Tex.

Let me guess, you spend 10% of your income on charitable donations.

LOL.

I know, I know, it's very private and you can't say.

I like you Mex. You're always good for a laugh.

Thanks! I have a nice "respectful" quote from SoCalCoug too, but ran out of room.

I wasn't talking about tithing. And lest we forget, I did donate to your fallen friend's fund.
