Romney confronted by sick patient - take 2

[Nailhead]

Ok guys, this is part 2....DON'T GET THIS THREAD CLOSED BY POSTING MINDLESS PROFANITY!! If you feel the need to cuss, I suggest doing what I do and yell profanity at inanimate objects such as a computer when it is running too slow, at your car for being slow, or at a recent phone bill for costing way more than its worth. Just don't type it out into this thread, (or forum for that matter)!

So with that in mind...let's keep this thread alive and keep a serious discussion going!

Glad to see ya reposted this but here's the warning. I have a reference point from the past b.s. and this time there will either be warnings or bans handed out if all you have is mindless comments.

Nailhead is nice enough to post this info up.......act like an adult with your comments.

Have a good one!:jointsmile:

Nailhead, I was reading your other thread and its responses, and then of course I read the comments about it in Feedback. I frankly would have not simply closed that other thread but completely deleted it. Had we only deleted the obnoxious threads it contained, it would have been decimated anyway. We are judicious about the thread deletions we make, I assure you.

I find it the least surprising thing I've seen all week to learn that a conservative Mormon presidential candidate would object to medical marijuana. Everyone understands that these are people whose church teachings urge them to eschew tobacco, coffee, and alcohol, right? Mormons interpret the misuse of drugs--illegal, legal, prescription or controlled--as a violation of their "Word of Wisdom" health code. I'm sorry about Mitt Romney's stance on MMJ, and perhaps this is an opportunity for him to be educated on the topic, but I think anyone who's considering Mr. Romney for president and hopes to advance the cause of medical MJ is barking up the wrong candidate. I think the same thing of any Republican candidate, frankly, and most Democrats except Ron Paul and possibly Barack Obama, neither of whom is going to get the nomination (Obama may get the nod for VP).

We don't need a president who is willing to turn a blind eye to an 80 pound man in a wheel chair who's dying...only to leave him with the choice to take 'synthetic' marijuana, which he plainly stated that it makes him throw up..'$10 a pill, take it anyways, I get a lot of campaign funds from big pharm anyhow'

I think Ron Paul has an excellent chance of winning the Republican nomination. Many people from other parties are registering Republican to vote for him in the primaries. I am one of them.

I agree... i just don't see how anybody could be that big of a jerk to an 80 pound dieing person. He won't be getting my vote.

Someone needs to remind Romney that people have a habit of taping these events and that shafting a dude in a wheelchair when he raises a valid point is bound to get around :wtf:

Here's hoping he falls a country mile short of being nominated!

Just smile and walk away....real smooth. Politicians are so funny sometimes.

+1 dem gone republican for primaries. I am glad people are showing romney for who he is. He already screwed up my state dont let him screw up our country!

I like Ron Paul, I like him a lot, but I don't think he really has any chance at all at winning the republican primary. People fear change, and he is a big change from what most republicans are used to, (even if it might be a change to what republicans are supposed to be). But I hope he never shuts up because he always has interesting things to hear, unlike many of the other candidates.

There's also the videos of Giuliani and McCain responding very condescendingly to a medical marijuana patient, it's really disgusting to see their questions and concerns be brushed off as if it's not a big deal. But the thing that keeps me happy is knowing that most of the country wants change, and if the funds raised is any indication....the country is looking for a democrat.

I would like to see some democrat candidates make is very clear as to what they would do if president with the medical marijuana thing. I know they have all said they support it, but saying you support something is far different than actually doing anything about it. Right now the only one I know would do anything is Richardson, who is trailing far behind. As much as I like Obama, I'm a bit disappointed he was last to make it public he supports medical marijuana and would end the DEA raids. I was expecting him to do more than simply say what we want to hear, oh well, right now I'm just hoping Arnold makes some news and voices his support for medical marijuana and an end to the raids here in California.

And thanks for keeping this open, normally I wouldn't care about a thread of mine being closed, but politics and medical marijuana strike a chord with me! I really think everyone should see how offensive some of these candidates are acting, and hopefully motivate some people to register to vote and make some real progress in this country.
