Romney gave a huge speech today in Israel and he nailed it. It was music to my ears when he stated unequivocally that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel. He also said that we must stand at Israel’s side, especially when their security is threatened and that we must not allow the radical theocracy in Iran to get nuclear weapons.

The entire speech was fantastic and you can watch it below:

I loved the speech Romney gave to the Israeli people. The American Jews better wake up if they haven't already. Obama has made it clear what he thinks about the very people that voted him in! Wake up our Jewish friends, if you vote again for Obama then you are going against Gods word. Support your people in Israel as you should have done in 2008!

Every Jewish person in the US must see this video and stop being typical democrats and support Obama, he is not good for US and the Jewish people. Obama has thrown Israel under the bus numerous times, but not Romney. We need Israel to be on our side, and Romney is the man who will keep his promise.

We are sending a righteous and accomplished man to do battle with the corrupt. Rand Paul says Mitt will audit the Fed and be a reformer. http://video.foxnews.com/v/1679154504001/sen-rand-paul-gov-romney-is-right-there-with-us Watch this Mitt ad and take heart. Mitt knows what has to be done and did it at the Olympics and in Mass. He'll do the right thing because he has scruples and morals. Let's have a Romney Tsunami and clean the crud out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKMDS4cB58U

Please watch this video that has old news clips and Obama's bio and damaging info. It shows Ayers saying on tape that he wrote Obama's first book, speculates on his real dad and shows him when he was at school. VERY informative and explained and narrated as if Obama is telling the story. I do not agree with the conclusion that Obama is the son of Frank Marshall Davis. He needed an African name to win over blacks. His entire past is fabricated. He is not qualified for office due to his past REGARDLESS of where he was born. http://vimeo.com/46519358 Perhaps he was raised abroad to protect him from the Nation of Islam here AFTER they murdered Malcolm X. X was a felon, drug pusher and pimp before being a radical Muslim. I have seen videos of Ann Dunham in the crowd after Malcolm X was shot and Nation of Islam members rejoicing over who Obama's dad is. No wonder this nobody coke and pot using radical punk got so far so fast. http://www.oilforimmigration.org/facts/?page_id=284 Help expose the fraud that has been perpetrated on America.

If people believe he is X's son-- he will get more support. If he is presented as a Kenyan, that will play well with blacks. So saying he is Davis' son is logical in order to defray votes from Obama. Regardless of who his daddy is, he is not qualified or eligible to be POTUS.

The bloodlines of the American people and the people of Israel intersect in the past. We are connected by blood, though not many know it. Mr. Obama, as you can tell does not appear to have that same connection, nor does he show any of the loyalty to the nation of Israel, as an ally would, that our previous presidents have had. it is a sad time for both countries. No doubt that situation of disrespect for Israel will continue under Mr. Obama.

Please read what Major General Vallely (lost a son in Iraq and now off of Fox as a commentator) , Lt. General Jerry Boykin (maligned by Obama admin for being a whistle blower on the military being infiltrated by the Muslim Brotherhood), LTC.. Lakin (Obama put him in prison for asking for his creds, now Lakin can't get his doctor's license renewed), and Colonel Sellin, who has been fired from his post after speaking out all have to say about Obama and the corruption that put him in power. All of these men have over 20 years of exemplary service each. Please read what Sellin says. It's time to demand our Congress do their jobs. http://english.pravda.ru/opinion/columnists/13-07-2012/121651-obama_corruption-0/

There is a reason that patriots like Mitt, Bachmann, West, Ryan and a few others are under attack. If you are taking fire, you are over the target. http://english.pravda.ru/opinion/columnists/15-06-2012/121397-barack_obama_prison-0/

http://rightsided.tumblr.com/1001 Reasons to not be for Obama. NDAA thanks to Obama. The media is silent. Total power grab. Would they have allowed someone with Obama's past, gaffes, mystery and associates to be President if he was a Republican? Sealed documents, outrageous insults to our allies, special deals for our foes like drilling where US can't and selling Russia oil rich islands, yet the media is silent. Obama even got Osama using the VERY TACTICS he condemned Bush for and took the credit when he was not even there when it went down. Lie upon lie upon lie by this man and his thug backed admin. The man has a very flawed character, radical friends (read his book) and no record. Obama is unworthy of the office. He'd have trouble getting security clearance to park cars at the White House in reality. Ayers parents sponsored Obama. They served on boards together, hung out, dined and baby sat his kids. Mr. & Mrs. Ayers tried to blow up the Pentagon, blew up a police station and bombed a judges house that was involved with a Black Panther trial. Obama is the most dangerous and controversial pretender we have ever had in the White House. http://www.TheObamaFile.com

Thanks Scoop for posting this speech. A welcomed, unapologetic, PRO-Israel stance. I am currently in a study of Revelation and am coming to believe we are not only committing political suicide, but spiritual suicide as well.

Great speech. Very presidential.

The audience was grateful when he acknowledged that he was in Jerusalem,

the Capitol of Israel. Until last week, who knew this was in dispute.

Gov. Romney asked God to bless the USA and Israel. I ask God to bless

Gov. Romney and his campaign.

Like him or not the Guy is starting to find his groove. He seems to started growing a pair and has done very well with MSM interviews. I'm starting to feel less paranoid offour more years of Obama. Just a feeling for now. About time.

He made a slam dunk when referring to Jerusalem as the Capitol of Israel. That's one campaign promise I see him keeping. Obama won't and Israel will be finished. Jews will vte for him regardless.

Destroy the middle class? I don't like much about Romney, but the one area he has nailed is economic reform. The middle class will experience prosperity again, if Romney can get his reforms in place in time, AND he kills Obamacare.

Romney's weakness is in understanding the Constitution. That's equally bad for everyone, not the middle class.

Frankly, sir, I cannot trust your comments or opinions in anything. I spent the last 10 minutes reviewing your web site:

http://virus-x.livejournal.com/profile

I suggest that anyone who seeks to understand your background and "where you are at now" spend a few minutes there. Then they can make an informed decision about your interests; goals; values; and prejudices. I regret that I am concerned; worried; and alarmed by many things I read on your site: strange diatriabes about sexual activity; seeminly contradictory opinions; unlimited egotism; PLUS a foreign phrase which appears at the top of your site: תחבולות תעשה לך מלחמה which I am informed means: "By Way Of Deception, Thou Shalt Do War."

Thus, I have to ask: Are your supposedly "pro-Republican" comments all DECEPTIONS? Is this the way you make war on Romney--by saying: "I'm a fierce defender of freedom and conservatism but I hate our chosen candidate for President." That WOULD BE AND COULD BE a very crafty deception, and a superb way to "do war".

Governor Romney survived the HARSHEST VETTING and PRIMARY OPPOSITION in the history of the Republican Party--YET HE HAS MADE HIS FORMER ENEMIES HIS FRIENDS AND HIS SUPPORTERS, who now campaign for him.

Sounds like mind reading to me. How does that work?

russell hicks

Your comment is ambiguous. "Mind reading" as to Virus X? Not so--I research issues and people for a living. I seek out authoritative sources, and digest them rather quickly. Today, I went to Virus-X OWN WEB SITE (he is sole owner and manager). What I read disturbed me, and so I posed my question.

"Mind reading" as our next President? Not all all--I have been studying him for more than five years. HE WAS NOT MY FIRST CHOICE, but he has "grown on me". Furthermore, as reflected by 1) donations FROM EVERYDAY AMERICANS, 2) polls (which are inevitably STACKED AGAINST HIM), and 3) by the attendance at his speeches, AN EXPANDING MAJORITY OF OUR COUNTRYMAN SUPPORT HIS CANDIDACY.

As to our "Virus X", go to his web site; study carefully; make up your own mind. IF MOST AMERICANS WOULD STUDY THE ISSUES UPON WHICH OUR FREEDOMS DEPEND, the O'Bastard would never have been elected. [BUT, remember 2010? The sleeping giant has awakened.]

I also don't see what he's going on about at Virus-X's site. Apparently Mr. Hicks would be shocked to the core if he visited sites like AceofSpades HQ, BlackFive, TheHostages, MyPetJawa and other places where military and former military guys (and wimmens) are known to hang out.

We don't have to "get" the military mindset. I didn't ever wear the uniform, so I hold my tongue around those guys because they have their way, and it's not my place to second-guess 'em.

Just defend 'em, and thank 'em. Period.

I see where you're coming from K-Bob. It does seem that he's reading into it too much. The phrase he's referring to could also be easily taken as one of Sun Tzu's principles. Sun Tzu believed one of the best offenses was cloak & dagger or ambiguity. It's something the Progressives have been using to corral and use the American people for their own ends. Anyhow, I'm with you, he's reading into that waaaaaaay too much.

Dude, if you are so good at research, then go find out how Romney became the presumptive nominee. If the polls were stacked against him, then it was probably because he didn't have the support, and fraud turned the tide. Check out all of the states where duly elected non-Romney delegates were cut out and replaced with Romney delegates by the GOP and the Romney camp. Check out what happened in Nevada, where Romney and the GOP completely replaced the state GOP after the convention because he lost all of the delegates.

Romney hasn't received his money from every day Americans, he has received most of it from bankers and corporations. Go compare Romney's speech attendance to Ron Paul's. Romney has mostly just had a few people showing up to most events. You can find plenty on youtube.

There may be an expanding majority of people supporting him, but it isn't because they like him, it is because they hate Obama.

You're the one telling us what Virus-X thinks. That implies mind reading. Everytime I see people claiming to know what others are thinking, I always wonder why I can't read minds, too.

Lori, I can already tell you what we are going to get with Romney. We are going to get a continuation of massive regulatory tyranny. Huge corporations literally run the regulatory agencies like the USDA and FDA. We literally have a corporation run government. Romney won't do anything with the Fed that congress doesn't hand him. I don't believe for a minute that Romney will go after the fed, because it is the head of the banking system that is getting him elected.

I've been lied to by every president for the last 20 years, and I finally figured out why. The American people don't elect them. The fraud runs so deep that they are literally put in via election fraud. They put up a good show, but that it all that it is.

You should probably go to www.dailypaul.com and keep an eye on the articles that talk about all the fraud that the GOP is involved in with Romney. After Paul supporters literally took the delegates for the state of Nevada, honestly and legally, Romney and the national GOP cut them out and created an alternative Nevada state GOP. That is only the beginning.

Romney is being put in to continue the shutdown of this country. (if the fraud continues to go his way) He proved himself as governor, and he proved himself to be a socialist on healthcare, and a gun grabbing regulation supporter.

We need to quit buying into their lies. Bush lied about small government and no policing the world, and Obama lied about so many things that I don't have time to mention them. Clinton lied, Bush 1 lied, they all lie, and Romney is just spitting out the crap that people want to hear, because republicans will support my dog for president over Obama.

Sorry for the rant. You will see when he gets in. You will see him go wishy washy on everything he has said except starting new wars, and continuing the ones that we have.

Thanks for posting this RS! I agree it was an excellent speech. I'm glad to hear he's willing to call the capital of Israel, Jerusalem - unlike the current administration.

My only reservation about Mitt is he is the consummate politician and that causes me to wonder if he will enter the White House (and he will, Lord-willing) on the coat-strings of promises and pledges only to abandon them when the electoral pressures are off. Lest we forget this is the same man whose position on abortion has flipped flopped over the years and whose claim to fame in Massachusetts is Romneycare.

Look, I'm not saying that someone can't truly change and perhaps Mitt has had an epiphany about his pro-life stance. I just find it hard to trust someone who is a politician groomed from birth. I mean no malice in that last sentence, I'm just "calling it like I see it".

The bottom line is I will vote for Romney, becuase it is a vote against Obama and that is the higher good. Once Romney enters the White House (and he will, Lord-willing) he must be held accountable for every promise, oath, pledge, etc. he made to the voters who punched his ticket on election day.

I'm off my soap box and yield the floor...

Yet he's constantly accused of being a RINO - which would have made him a shoo-in, no? Am I missing something? To me, FWIW, he certainly qualified as a RINO before becoming the presumed nominee.

Isn't it nice to hear a leader speak clearly and forcefully without hemming and hawing? I like this speech because it doesn't mince words - regardless of whether or not I agree with him. And I think Mitt should turn the British BS "gaffe" into a strength. He should run the interview clip with a "straight talk from a real leader" message. Because one of his negatives is that people think he'll do and say anything to get elected. Well, he expressed his honest opinion on the Olympics, not saying what people wanted to hear, - and got crucified for it from the thin-skinned and lefty Brits. Shame on them. But Britain has become such a joke and everybody knows this. All they have left is "snark" and faux superiority.

Wisewoman2

Please don't fall for the people think Romney "will do or say anything to get elected". That was Obama's false accusation against Hillary and it is his false accusation against Mitt. You all are falling right into Obama's lying game because truly he is the one who will do or say anything to win. Examples: To get the Hispanic vote, do not carry out the law and let illegals stay in the country; women vote offer free birth control pills, abortions all the way through the last trimester, etc.; Jewish vote sign a bill passed by congress for military aid to Israel on the day before Mitt goes to Israel; lazy people vote: offer welfare for life, etc. Make speeches talking about fairness concurrently while expousing these policies. Now ask yourselves who is the one who will do or say anything to win? Answer: Obama not Romney.
