ACTUALLY......
Romney has refused to answer questions regarding his views on important issues
so voters have to guess at where he stands on them. You see if he doesn't
tell what he's thinking, he can call himself the "generic Republican"
choice to President Obama. Romney has stated that there were so many things he
would do as President, on the first day in office that I really have lost
count. Here are 6 more issues that he simply evades and won't talk about.
1.
Gov. Romney will not say whether he would revoke the President's decision to
end deportation of eligible immigrants. He has had numerous opportunities
in the last few day to say how he feels about that issue but only says
"we'll look at that....we'll look at that setting as we.....as we reach
that". Wow! That's really a great statement coming from a man
to hopes to be President.
2.
Romney won't say if he supports the Paycheck Fairness Act. This is a bill
to crack down on wage discrimination between men and women. The
Washington Times has asked him 5 times about his thoughts on the
bill. I'm seriously thinking that he's waiting for the puppet
master,Geppetto,to pull the right string.
3.
Romney refuses to say which federal agencies that he'd eliminate. He said
he would eliminate or combine "a lot of departments in Washington",
but that he was "probably not going to lay out just exactly which ones are
going to go". Why? It could hurt his political chances - it
did in his 1994 Senate race.
4.
Romney won't say specifically which tax loopholes he'd close. When asked,
he answered "we'll go through that process with Congress". It
was a don't bother me with that now answer.
5.
He won't say if he'd support the re-authorization of the Violence Against Women
Act. He said that he "hopes (the bill) can be re-authorized without
turning it into a political football". Would that be considered a
fumble in NFL talk?
6.
You're going to like this one - He won't say whether he'd eliminate
the "carried interest" tax break for private equity partners.
His campaign won't say anything about it and when asked directly he said we
should probably "take a close look at that to see if we're treating
capital gains as capital gains or are we treating, in some cases, carried
interest as capital gains when it's more like ordinary income". That
could possibly be a direct answer, but.....
Oh well, if he doesn't know how he feels about these important issues, I'm quite sure someone will tell him.
