Despite holding such strong views, Deace maintains that he’s not campaigning against Romney by any means. Instead, he says he‘s merely sharing his views on the candidate’s policies.</p> <p>On his Facebook page, the host delved into the six “stipulations” governing his refusal to simply accept Romney as the lesser of two purportedly lackluster candidates. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/notes/steve-deace/in-response-to-michael-farris-on-voting-for-romney/10151011575338875" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Here they are</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>1) I do not believe my vote determines the winner of an election the way most people do. The Bible clearly teaches there is no authority on earth except that which God has ordained, and I am a strong believer in the sovereignty of God, so pagan philosophical arguments like not voting for “A” is a vote for “B” have no impact on me, except to compel me to wonder why so many people have such simplistic logic. After all, as David Shedlock recently pointed out, if not voting for Romney is a vote for Obama then why is not voting for Obama a vote for Romney? I do believe God gives us the leaders we deserve, so I think the more faithful we are the more blessing God gives us. Thus, I view my vote as an act of worship more than a responsibility of citizenship (which also matters but not as much) and loyalty to a political party (which doesn’t matter at all).</p> <p>2) What I am writing here is not intended to persuade anyone else to my position, but rather explain my position. When you read further you will understand why this particular position is personal to me. As a public figure (whether I want to admit I am one or not), I believe I owe you these sorts of explanations if for no other reason than I demand it from other public figures — and I must hold myself accountable to the same standard I hold others.</p> <p>3) Although at times I can get snarky with the best of them, and crack jokes about things like hoping Romney picks a terrible RINO running mate, that‘s really just gallow’s humor to keep from crying over the state of my country. The truth is I would love it if Romney shocked me into admitting I was wrong — just once. For example, I would love it if he picked a God-fearing running mate who is capable of honoring their sworn oaths of office before God and man. We are running out of time as a people, and don’t have much more time for RINOs let alone cultural marxists and socialists masquerading as Keynesians. I would love it if Romney, or even Obama for that matter, didn’t constantly live down to my expectations.</p> <p>4) On the other hand, history has shown it‘s who’s at the top of the ticket that matters, just ask Sarah Palin. While it’s idealistic to fantasize about a Godly man having influence over Romney, the truth is the list is long and tragic of Godly men who have already compromised themselves over Romney. Just read our book “We Won’t Get Fooled Again” if you want the documentation. A little bit of leaven ruins the whole loaf.</p> <p>5) It is the responsibility of the candidate/politician to earn my vote, not my responsibility as a citizen to compromise God’s moral standard to vote for them. I am the boss, they are the job applicant. Therefore, the burden of hiring is on them, and not me. If a candidate wants my support, live up to my standard and you’ll get it. It’s just that simple.</p> <p>6) As a Christian I am not motivated by fear, because perfect love casts out all fear. I am motivated by faith, so boogeymen don’t scare me. My God lives, and the grave couldn’t hold him. So you’ll forgive me if fear-mongering propaganda doesn’t drive me into the arms of a slightly less poisonous snake.</p> </blockquote> <p>Of course, Deace also highlighted more specific policy reasons for his stance. Romney, he claims, has an “anti-marriage, anti-life, and anti-liberty record” — one that causes him to label Romney a “serial liar and a flip-flopper.” He also takes issue with the candidate’s handling of gay marriage issues in Massachusetts (read the rest of his analysis <a href="https://www.facebook.com/notes/steve-deace/in-response-to-michael-farris-on-voting-for-romney/10151011575338875" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a>). Deace reiterated these sentiments when speaking with The Blaze today.</p> <p>“We have to get to the point where evil is evil regardless of who did it,” he said. “What I’m trying to do is help get as many conservatives get elected as possible…whether Obama or Obamney wins the election this fall, we’re going to need as many [of them] as we can get.”</p> <p>The radio host noted that others, including Mathew D. Staver, Vice President of Liberty University, has stated similar views on Romney.</p> <p>“The Romney campaign — they want to win standing for nothing so that they don’t owe us anything in office,” Deace proclaimed.</p> <p>Judging from the host’s current stance, little will persuade him into supporting Romney this fall.</p> http://gratewire.com/topic/bristol-palin-i%e2%80%99ve-been-receieving-death-threats-after-i-ripped-obama#post-103753 Thu, 17 May 2012 07:25:50 +0000 Black Lion 103753@http://gratewire.com/ <p>Exactly...Bristol is a hypocrite, just like her mother...And they are both attention whores....I can't believe that the media still cares what happens to that twit....</p> http://gratewire.com/topic/bristol-palin-i%e2%80%99ve-been-receieving-death-threats-after-i-ripped-obama#post-103749 Thu, 17 May 2012 06:53:00 +0000 Beach Baby 103749@http://gratewire.com/ <p>What is wrong with that family?  None of them can keep their mouth shut - and then they scream foul when they get a public reaction they don't like.</p> <p>They are critical, sanctimonious, finger-pointers.  And yet they are so thin skinned about criticism coming the other way. </p> http://gratewire.com/topic/bristol-palin-i%e2%80%99ve-been-receieving-death-threats-after-i-ripped-obama#post-103745 Thu, 17 May 2012 02:47:56 +0000 SLF 103745@http://gratewire.com/ <p><span>Palin — a single mom who was never married — then argued children are raised in homes where there is both a mother and a father.</span><br /> -----------------------<br /> This appears to be the usual prelude for another (<em>People</em> funded) reconciliation with Levi.</p> http://gratewire.com/topic/bristol-palin-i%e2%80%99ve-been-receieving-death-threats-after-i-ripped-obama#post-103710 Wed, 16 May 2012 20:57:10 +0000 california rick 103710@http://gratewire.com/ <p>Ultimately, does anyone really care what Bristol Palin has to say - someone "famous" because of her mom?</p> http://gratewire.com/topic/bristol-palin-i%e2%80%99ve-been-receieving-death-threats-after-i-ripped-obama#post-103707 Wed, 16 May 2012 20:52:40 +0000 Black Lion 103707@http://gratewire.com/ <p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"> <br /> <h1>Bristol Palin: I’ve been receieving death threats after I wrote a blog post ripping Obama on gay marriage </h1><br /> </span></p> <p><div></p> <p><a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Bristol+Palin" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Bristol Palin</a> “stirred up a hornet's nest” when she <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/bristol-palin-rips-president-obama-listening-daughters-malia-sasha-supporting-gay-marriage-article-1.1075816" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">penned a blog post </a>lashing out against <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Barack+Obama" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">President Obama</a> for consulting his daughters on gay marriage — and now she claims to have gotten death threats because of it.</p> <p>The former Alaska governor's daughter used <a href="http://www.patheos.com/blogs/bristolpalin/2012/05/hate-in-the-name-of-love-bullying-in-the-name-of-tolerance/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">a new post</a> to share screenshots of some the comments written on her site, including ones that say "kill yourself," "may death be upon you," and "You all, including your son, deserve a slow, painful and miserable death."</p> <p>However, the 21-year-old isn’t backing down and argued the death threats only serve to undermine her critics who are attacking her.</p> <p>"Around Hollywood, there's lots of concern and great initiatives to try to encourage more kindness in this world,” she wrote. “Then why do I get so many messages telling me I should die?"</p> <p>Palin claims in the post she is victim of “bullying.”</p> <p>"Here's a newsflash, guys. Your hate and bullying won't work,” she wrote. “People see through it, and they don't like to be pushed around. You think it's completely obvious that you're right, but this younger generation is more pro-life than their parents, and voters just keep defending traditional marriage."</p> <p>The firestorm erupted last week after Palin ripped Obama for saying his daughters, Malia, 13, and Sasha, 10, helped influence his decision to support same sex-marriage.</p> <p>Palin — a single mom who was never married — then argued children are raised in homes where there is both a mother and a father.</p> <p>"In this case, it would've been helpful for him to explain to Malia and Sasha that while her friends parents are no doubt lovely people, that's not a reason to change thousands of years of thinking about marriage,” she wrote on the May 10 post. “Or that — as great as her friends may be — we know that in general kids do better growing up in a mother/father home. Ideally, fathers help shape their kids' worldview."</p> <p>Palin, in Monday's post, said she will not be swayed by the latest threats.</p> <p>"Keep sending the hate, but realize that hate doesn't win arguments," she wrote.</p> <p></div> </p> http://gratewire.com/topic/sarah-palin-blasted-by-carney-for-politicizing-secret-service-scandal#post-101427 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 22:02:41 +0000 Black Lion 101427@http://gratewire.com/ <p>Amazing...She made a ridiculous statement and makes a dig about the President at one time eating dog, amazing how vapid and devisive this cretian really is....</p> http://gratewire.com/topic/sarah-palin-blasted-by-carney-for-politicizing-secret-service-scandal#post-101407 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 14:44:44 +0000 Beach Baby 101407@http://gratewire.com/ <p>SLF - good to know that Greta did not let Palin just blab away with all her usual BS without challenging her a bit.  Greta lost major credibility when she decided to become Palin's BFF and protect her from all harm.   </p> <p>And Checker - I agree with you 100%.  Someday<span style="color: #3366ff;"> (let us pray)</span> the divisive "asshat" will disappear back to the tundra for good. </p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;">(I figure if the South Korean Christians can pray for for Lady Gaga to go away - then we can pray for Sarah Palin to take her "rabid dog" act back to Alaska)</span></p> <p> </p> http://gratewire.com/topic/sarah-palin-blasted-by-carney-for-politicizing-secret-service-scandal#post-101404 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 14:13:26 +0000 Checker 101404@http://gratewire.com/ <p>Read Palin's comment, she just continues to prove what an asshat she is.  Someday, hopefully sooner than later, Palin will get zero airtime from everyone.</p> http://gratewire.com/topic/sarah-palin-blasted-by-carney-for-politicizing-secret-service-scandal#post-101402 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 13:30:18 +0000 SLF 101402@http://gratewire.com/ <p>She did so during an interview with Greta, who was not as easy on SP as was to be expected.
