Editorial - Mitt Romney And His Abortion Flip Flop

Mitt Romney has been receiving bad press in the last week over his alleged "flip-flop" on the abortion issue. Everyone has a right to change his or her mind on something. That is one of the principles our nation was founded on. I personally think Mitt Romney would be the end of this country. Whatever your opinion on him, remember that he is allowed to change his mind....This is America.

My problem with flip-flopping is that we're calling it "flip-flopping." Whatever happened to professional journalism in this country? Why can't we call it "changing his/her position?" Didn't the people at CNN go to journalism school? Does everyone now work for FOX News and need to sensationalize everything to get viewers?

Hey, professional journalists, act like professional journalists. You spent a lot of money on that fancy diploma, use that book-learning. Not everyone in the country has the intellect of a dim-witted 3rd grader. If you stop treating us like that, maybe we'll stop behaving like that.
