In his remarks after the catered Polynesian-themed barbecue, Mitt appeared to be genuinely moved. He said his only regret was that his parents and grandparents, including his paternal grandfather’s five wives, couldn’t be there.

They were watching from Eternity, we’re sure.

There you have it, folks. Romney “family values” — multiple same sex marriage.

Who said anything about Democrats? I’m talking about you…liberals. This might surprise you, but not all Democrats are liberal. In fact, most are not.

see?

And who gives a crap about 18 – 37 year olds? They’re mostly still too young to have turned conservative, as most of them undoubtedly will by the time they actually start to matter in the world.

And you once again dodged the reality, just like good little drone liberals. You have no winnable argument, so you jump to polls. Well, as they say, polls are for strippers and Democrats. If you believed the 2004 polls and media reporting, Kerry was going to run away with the election. That didn’t really work out for you guys, did it?

Don’t even try to match intellects with me. You have to be able to count without using your fingers first.

It is clear that the truth doesn’t matter to you, Ryan, but for other readers, the fact is, the GOP is shrinking and the Democratic Party is growing, according to Pew:

Even more striking than the changes in some core political and social values is the dramatic shift in party identification that has occurred during the past five years. In 2002, the country was equally divided along partisan lines: 43 percent identified with the Republican Party or leaned to the GOP, while an identical proportion said they were Democrats. Today, half of the public (50 percent) either identifies as a Democrat or says they lean to the Democratic Party, compared with 35% who align with the GOP.

Other studies show a precipitous drop is in young people who identify as members of the GOP, which indicates that the Republican Party is dying on the vine, as Newt might say. In this case, the weed killer is a Bush:

For Democrats, the most interesting trend is the GOP’s age demographics, which have skewed dramatically older over the decade. The percentage of Republicans age 55 and older grew from 28 percent in 1997 to 41 percent now, while the number of 18- to 37-year-olds dropped from 25 percent to 17 percent.

Seventeen percent! Now that’s dimunitive.

Since truth and reality don’t matter, Ryan, let’s debate the fact that the real reason Romney’s sons aren’t in the military is that all five of them are gay. That makes as much sense as your off the wall blather.

This is how you win all your debates against liberals, huh? Just make shit up?

Move along, sonny.

What does Mitt Romney have to do with whether or not his sons volunteer for a volunteer military? Why didn’t the lady ask his sons that question? What does he have to do with it? What, because he’s their father he should have coerced them into the military? Isn’t that kind of parental coercion the source of the rebellion that led you into this brainless brand of liberalism to begin with?

Oh…now I get it. That’s what you’re after. You hope that if Romney forced (or coerced) his sons into the military, they’d rebel and become tantrum-throwing liberals like you. After all, with your diminutive numbers and attrition rates, you guys need all the converts you can dupe.

Ronald Reagan weeps in heaven when rightwingers lie, Ryan. If you can live with the fact that you’re making poor St. Ronnie cry, we certainly can.

The question itself was irrelevant because we have a volunteer military in this country. Romney’s answer was perfectly sound. If you can’t admit that, you’re just a lock-step, mindless drone like most of the modern liberal movement. You can go join the “stupid people” anytime. You’ll fit right in.
