follows on, not an al qaeda-sponsored government that follows on. all of this loose talk of my friend, governor romney and the congressman, about how we are going to do we could do so much more in there, what more would they do other than put american boots on the ground? the last thing america needs is to get in another ground war in the middle-east, requiring tens of thousands, if not well over 100,000 american forces. they are the facts. they are the facts. every time the governor s asked about this, he he goes up with a whole lot of verbiage, but when he gets pressed, he said, no, he would not do anything different nan we are doing now. are they proposing putting american troops on the ground? american aircraft in the air space? if they do, they should speak up and say so. but that s not what they are saying. we are doing it exactly like we
the ball. i have been in afterafand iraq 20 times. i have been throughout that whole country, mostly in a helicopter and sometimes in a vehicle. the fact is, we went there for one reason, to get those people who killed americans, al qaeda. we have decimated al qaeda central. we have eliminated osama bin laden. that was our purpose. and in fact, in the meantime, what we said we would do, we would help train the afghan military. it s their responsibility to take over their own security. that s why, with 49 of our allies in afghanistan, we have agreed on a gradual draw-down so we are out of there by the year 2014 in the year 2014. my friend and the governor say it s based on conditions, which means, it depends. it does not depend, for us.
said, particularly in these these special, new groups that can go out and raise all the money they want, not to have to identify themselves and say the most scurrilous things about the other candidate. it s an abomination. but the bottom line here is, i have asked that hero that you reference to take a look at whether or not governor romney or president obama has the conviction to help lift up the middle clationz, restore them to where they were before this great recession hit and they got wiped out, or whether or not he is going to continue to focus on taking care of only the very wealthy, not asking them to pay any part of the deal to bring back the middle class and the economy of this country. i would ask him to take a look at whether the president of the united states has acted wisely in the use of force, and whether or not the slip-shod comments being made by my by governor
religious liberty you have. if they agree, why would they keep suing? it s a distinction without a difference? i want to go back to the abortion question here. if the romney/ryan ticket is elected, should those who believe that abortion should remain legal be worried? we don t think that unelected judges should make this decision, that people through their elected representatives and reaching a consensus in society through the democratic process should make this determination. the court, the next president will get one or two supreme court nominees. that s how close row v. wade is. just ask yourself, with robert borg being the chief adviser on the court, four for mr. romney, who do you think he is likely to appoint? do you think he s likely to point ax point someone like scalia, on the court, far right,
saw that heart beat. our little baby was in the shape of a bean. and to this day, we have nicknamed our first-born child, liza, bean. now, i believe that life begins at conception. that s why those are the reasons why i am pro-life. i understands this is a difficut issue. i respect people who don t agree with me on this. but the policy of a romney administration will be to oppose abortion with the exceptions for rape, incest and life of the mother. what troubles me more is how this administration has handled all of these issues. look at what they are doing through obamacare with respect to assaulting the religious liberties of this country. they re infringing upon our first freedom, the freedom of religion, by infringin catholic charities, catholic churches, catholic hospitals. our church should not have to
