Thanks for resurrecting that thread! It actually proves that Al wanted Obama over Romney :)

wow.  the quote KnightofChrist provided is an accurate portrayal of the argument I made at the time.  it certainly did not make me a supporter of Obama, as anyone reading the quote whether they agree with me on the argument or not should be able to understand.

Anyway, I did not vote for Mitt Romney, and I did not vote for Barack Obama.  I encouraged everyone who would listen to me, including some who would have been more likely to have voted for Obama and some that would have been more likely to vote for Romney, to do the same as me: either third party or write-in.  I suppose because you felt that phatmass was romney stomping ground then my arguments were in favor of Obama, but I assured you I tried to dissuade Obama voters from voting for him as well.  And mostly I was trying to get people to stop scandalously  trying to judge people's Catholic faith according to which of these false choices they voted for, people who allowed a false political system which is deceptive, whose adversarial choices I believe to be a show designed to trick people into supporting them, and one which is certainly not democratic to divide the Church and who actively chased people away from Christ because they were so concerned with their political team winning.

 

I believe I also argued at the time that if Obama won we might have a better chance in the Republican primaries in 2016 at getting someone we could actually trust to be pro-life.  With the circus we have in that right now, I honestly have no idea if that prediction makes any sense lol, but at least we're not stuck with Mitt Romney as the automatic republican nominee this time.  Are we better or worse for that fact:?  I honestly have no idea, the circus is even more ridiculous this time than last time!

lol i honestly didnt want to get sucked into political talk lol.  either way I think it's pretty clear why freedom sees my position as having been somehow pro-obama, and I leave it to anyone else to decide if she's right about that or not based on the quote KofC posted and what I just said.  no need to start up a whole new war over it.

Not voting for the two main presidential candidates only supports the one who will be the next future president.  In this case it was Obama.  Therefore you were an Obama supporter whether intentionally or not.  The whole point of voting for Romney was to get Obama out of office, since you did not vote for Romney, you failed to do this.

No third party in history has ever won a presidential election, nor has a write in ever won a presidential election!  This thought process is purely fictitious.  Therefore I hope no one took heed to this fantasy because it is absolutely not reality.

False choices??  Either Obama or Romney were going to become our next president.

I explained this countless of times more than two years ago.  I'm done and I wish to not discuss this further.  Obama has become president which led to America becoming so damaged right now.
