Sorry I didn't know sooner, I would have gone...

those must've been some good pancakes.

I deleted a comment because it violated our terms of use, which you can review here: http://beachwood.patch.com/terms

Please, no personal attacks.

for those who are unsure of Mitt Romney .... just remember this ....At Least He is not a socialist

Heck, yeah! Good ol' Mitt, he's just a regular pancake eating guy, like you and me!

Thanks Ryan Brady for uploading these awesome photos and video!

Just an FYI, I haven't removed any comments yet.
And did you know, readers, that you can report a comment that offends you?

Some of you really need to grow up!

Free Pancakes? Sounds like Socialism to me.

reading some of these comments reinforces what I suspected all along.........some of you whiny pukes wouldn't recognize a socialist if one came along and stepped on your face.
Patch Editor: If I've violated any rules here, then delete as you must. My apologies, but some things just can't be sugar-coated for these jugheads.

Maybe if the "real names required" rule was enforced on this Patch, these comments wouldn't be such inane, offensive drivel.

Hi, everyone,

Thanks for engaging in constructive dialogue about Mitt Romney's appearance, but please stick to our terms of use. I just removed several comments because of their use of an offensive term, and many of the commenters on here have gotten off topic. We'll be suspending comments on this post if our rules are not respected.

3000 people showing up in the rain on sunday for romney, is a much better turnout then the 1500 people that turned out to see a sitting president in parma

Off topic? The horror! Reader's comments lead to other reader's comments which lead to an open discussion about, well, topics. It's actually interesting to hear people's opinions, and to see how their thought processes work. If I am correct in my assumption, I think comments are also called opinions, and I think opinions convey a personal touch by the very nature of being personal comments. Perhaps, readers will suspend the reading of Patch since it will no longer be interesting reading. This "warning" of the impending "total censorship" for all Patch commenters on this thread because of a few ignorant individual’s abuses reminds me of grade school-- where one person does something inappropriate, so the entire class is punished. Censor the inappropriate, obscene, hate speech, etc. comments as an editor/moderator is inclined to do-- (and thank you for that by the way)-- and perhaps leave the rest of us commenters to converse with each other in any way we see fit, and in any direction that it may take us, or you will certainly lose your circulation base as many other media outlets have. For example, think "LA Times"-- another media dinosaur in the making. And, for the record, to express my opinion and post this comment, I used my real name, as required by Patch's "terms of use," and not some made up "penname"-- as that wily Samuel Clemons did when he adopted Mark Twain as the psuedonym he "posted" his work under.

simonton, you are proof of my assessment. attempting to compartmentalize me with such a label illustrates your blinding ignorance.

So do they serve bacon and eggs at pancake breakfasts too? I can never tell.

My opinion alone.
I would urge any of you thinking of voting for Romney, to do some research on Mormonism before you cast that vote. I would also urge you to take note that a Mormons first duty over all, is to his church. His country & fellow countrymen & women, will always come second.
Facts are facts. if Romney is elected, he will have acomplished what the LDS church has wanted for a very long time, to be in control. (see The White Horse Prophecy, Joseph Smith Jr, 1843)

Be also aware, if Romney, (a Mormon High Priest) is elected, no White House decison will ever be made without him having to consult with his church, beforehand.

I would also urge any of you who want to know more about Mormonism, to peruse the following link as well. Many many thousands of ex- Mormons, dissatisfied with the religion & rituals they adhered to so faithfully, leaving their church & in many cases, shunned from their family for doing so, is a sure sign, something always has been, and still is, very wrong.

I'm not a fan of the LDS church and all their wacky unorthodox beliefs, but I'll take Mitt any day. Obama has made 2 and only 2 correct decisions while in office.
1. authorized the killing of Somali pirates. 2. authorized the killing of Bin Laden. If Mitt makes 3 good decisions, he'll be a better potus.

By the way our country isn't becoming socialist. All the leaders and corporations don't care about the middle class. They only care for money and power. Our current President or Mitt can't save us, because they have been corrupted like almost every other politician here. The political divide in our once great county will destroy us. Unity is the key to keeping our nation prosperous. I envy the countries that come together as one when they must fix something. We are Americans, doesn't matter what you look like, nor what religion or political mindset you may fall under. Let's stop fighting and start on the path to be a great country once again.

You're forgetting that "white horse" is the Mormon church, not Mitt Romney.

Ah, pancakes and heaping side of ham.

Mormons have been saying The United States constitution will hang like a single thread, or, like a single thread, for a very long time. I'm sure in a hundred years from now, they'll be saying the same thing.

For your reading pleasure. Take note, "this people" is referring to Mormons.

Journal of Discourses Vol. 7, p. 15 Brigham Young, July 4 1854

Will the Constitution be destroyed? No: it will be held inviolate by this people; and as Joseph Smith said, The time will come when the destiny of the nation will hang upon a single thread. At that critical juncture, this people will step forth and save it from the threatened destruction. It will be so.

Journal of Discourses, Vol. 2, p. 182, Brigham Young, February 18, 1855

Brethren and sisters, our friends wish to know our feelings towards the Government. I answer, they are first-rate, and we will prove it too, as you will see if you only live long enough, for that we shall live to prove it is certain; and when the Constitution of the United States hangs, as it were, upon a single thread, they will have to call for the Mormon Elders to save it from utter destruction; and they will step forth and do it.

Religion should never be part of politics in anyway. We need somebody who has great morals and leadership, sadly zero of our politicians have either. Just because some news article says he's a socialist doesn't mean he is one. Even if he is doesn't really mean much.

Hope Mitt makes it. Personal attacks seems to be the norm for the left, and far right. Have fun boys. Many said same thing about Kennedy on being Catholic. All were wrong on this point. Although I agree he was a smuck of a Prez. Can not see why the Democrates can not come up with a better choice than Obummer

The commentary is so much less about the content of Mr. Romney's speech than it is about who deleted whose comments. Let's get on board with the discussion. Either you can vote for Mr. Romney or you can re-elect Mr. Obama based on their stand on the issues. November cannot come fast enough.

I have checked both. Votd for O bummer 1st time. Never again. He has done more to destroy our country than any other. What a joke. Shame on me first time. Will not be a second. Mitt is not my first choice for sure. But would rather vote for a dead yellow dog than O BUMMER AGAIN. His record stands and is not good for any one.

Hypocrisy at its finest.

And just to disclose this to everyone, I do not get all of my news from a comedy show. I have 2 degrees in history, I read and I pay attention to the world. This show just does a great job of pointing on the insanity of what is going on.

And people are still standing by their convictions that he is going to do this and do that.

For those of you who are worried about Romney being a Mormon and injecting his religious beliefs into his politics just remember that the majority leader of the Senate is also a Mormon. So if you think Harry Reid does a good job of separation of church and state then you must give a fair shot to Romney.

This Latina will vote for Romney! I am tired of Obama's divisiveness, his refusal to uphold the laws of our nation, his repeated attempts to rule by fiat, his repeated attacks on those of us who have busted our butts and have had some measure of financial success, his denigration of American individualism, and his general socialist tendencies. i did not vote for him the first time, and I will certainly not vote for him this time. Although Romney may not have the "charisma" that Obama seems to display, he certainly appears to be more cognizant and respectful of our Constitution, the American way of life, and "government of the people, by the people, and for the people". Personally, I can't wait to bid Obama GOOD-BYE!

Who's the cute girl getting interviewed?

To celebrate the United States' bicentennial birthday, Jefferson's portrait was used for the new two-dollar bill, one of the rarest dollar bills in the U.S. currency system. Thanks a lot.
