If Mitt Romney believed Barack Obama was his equal, he would fight him from every possible legitimate avenue of attack, just as President Obama is proving there is nothing he won’t do as he clings to lies and gutter tactics.
Instead, because his adversary is a black man, he refuses to use the only sure-fire way to shut President Obama up and drive him from the presidency in disgrace and possibly handcuffs, in defense of America. Romney has the same progressive streak as John McCain, a willingness to suspend reality to the detriment of the country for a “go along to get along” fantasy where he is accepted by the Left. He is hung up on being called a racist if he (God forbid!) treats President Obama as an equal, forgetting that no matter what he does, Leftists and the media believe if you are a Republican or Conservative, you are one anyway.
It’s a warped version of political affirmative-action. President Obama is spared the truth being used against him by the “racist white man” while Obama can throw proven lies around, and because he is black, they are accepted without question.
Were Romney man enough to show America he will fight proudly with the truth and that he deserves to be Commander-in-Chief, the next time some Obama toady in the press asked Romney to show his tax records, or more documents on Bain Capital, he’d be prepared.
He would make a speech about America’s greatness and the honor to be in a position to represent her all over the world, to follow our founding fathers blueprint, our Constitution, into glory once again. He would declare pride at growing up and learning about capitalism because it has been the greatest force for life, freedom, and prosperity on the face of the earth.
He should open a briefcase and pull out two documents.
He should slap down his birth certificate and his selective service card.
In the name of “Fairness,” he should promise to release other documents as soon as Barack Obama matches with his birth certificate and selective service card.
He should challenge the media to examine who they are talking to before demanding any American citizen open up his life to someone they know nothing about. He should refuse to ever again entertain any questions about anything in his past until his unknown opponent identifies himself.
Romney will have proved that he is a rugged American, willing to stand up for the Constitution and use truth to fight lies.
Mitt Romney must be willing to stand up for himself and, by extension, America with the same tenacity and vehemence with which the attacks on him are launched.
Nothing else is necessary to put him over the line without an opponent who can do the same.

In addition to the birth certificate and draft card (have I dated myself?) Romney should also pull out all of his college and high school records and transcripts including how his education was paid for and any theses or dissertations he might have written plus his medical records and then tell Obama to match that kind of transparency and then question Obama about his use of executive privilege to hide the truth about Fast & Furious from getting to the public (too bad the phony press corps cannot produce a Bernstein or Woodward anymore), citing Obama’s 2009 lying statement that his would be the most transparent administration in history. Romney could also quote Obama from 2007 when he accused George Bush of hiding behind executive privilege.
100% correct. Mitt should be challenging obama at every turn. Mitt should reveal all of these records, one by one AFTER obama reveals his and they are not forgeries. Also, should Mitt chose Col. Alan West as a running mate, obama would not be able to use the ‘race card’ against him. West is the most outspoken patriot on the political scene and would definitely be one people could stand with. I am so tired of seeing the wishy washy campaign ads by Romney as he seems to be on the defensive, when he should be on the offensive.
I agree with you totally Dave. He needs to force Obama to respond. I pray that that Obama is revealed for the evil being that he is.
McCain, Romney, and Obama are all Progressives. They don’t care which one of them win, as long as it is a Socialist Progressive. We Conservatives, attempted to warn the Nation during the Primary that Romney was a SCUMBAG. He will attempt to nominate a VP who is either inelegible to run by the Constitution (Rubio) or a Liberal who voted for Obama and subverted the War against Terrorism (Rice). Chenney and Rumsfeld have both warned our Nation about the Subversive liar that Rice is. Wake up and listen to what is going on. The only way Romney could have been nominated is if America’s memory can only stretch to the last 30 second commercial on TV. If Ronmey selects one of the above candidates I will be writing in my vote for Palin or other suitable candidates.
