I still like Obama

Townhall? I'm going to go ahead and assume it's a lie.

I wonder what was the consumer confidence back in 2008 when everything was crashing?

Weaver95: In another blow to Obama's reelection bid, consumer confidence, which has been low throughout Obama's presidency, stumbled badly last month after economists initially predicted confidence would go up.

plus - teleprompters! and...and..ipads! so like...take THAT man! because..because like...Obama is a muslim atheist and stuff! right, so like...he's totes gonna LOSE! yeah! And stuff!

Sounds more like the predicting economists stumbled badly, but that may just be me projecting.

I'm not big on Obama, but he's better than the alternatives. Plus I kind of know what his policies are at this point. Can anyone enumerate M.I.T.T.* Romney's beyond "I won't be Presidentin' while black."

*Mormon Industries Two Thousand, his chassis number.

Trollmitter using "S.S." in a non-Nazi tone when referring to President Obama = dialing back the rhetoric

I'm all set with "articles" from Johnny Derpmonster.

I'll save you all a lot of time: "forget all the polls saying that people like him, people don't want to spend shiatloads of money so WAH-WAH obummer"...

Well, he's totally doomed now. DOOOOOOOOOMED!

I was unaware consumer confidence had a direct correlation with Presidential voting. Well, since we're throwing out shiat that doesn't prove anything, I'll go next:

In an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll released Friday, Obama bested Romney by a yawning margin of 54 percent to 18 percent when people were asked whom they viewed as more "easygoing and likable."

Remember the good old days when blogging was hard enough that teadards could not handle them? Good times.

So, am I to understand that John Ransom is a mod here? Why does all of his gibberish get a green light?

Aw, give them a break. What else do they got?

Now if they were willing to talk about civil rights, the war on accountability, extra-judicial executions then they might be able to get respect. Unfortunately the right wing is for all those things too so they can't.

Well if TownHall said it, it must be true.

/I couldn't even finish typing that without giggling.

Townhall is indeed amusing, submitter. I'm laughing my ass off that you consider their opinions relevant or realistic.

That purdy mouth must be good for more than just smilin'!

I never really believed that there was the fakery in news to ensure what appears to be an actual race. This particular cycle though, it's so glaring it's hard to ignore.

I got out of news business when it turned into regurgitating press releases with a "local flavour". This is a whole new level of manipulation.

I'm canadian, so I don't have a dog in this race, but damn man - some sensible people need to regain control of your country (I know, I know, Harper and I'm one to talk, but still...)

I'm going to assume that Townhall included hard numbers and not vague assumptions.

No. Doesn't even measure up to the standard of falsehood. As Feynman would say "That's not even wrong!"

tenpoundsofcheese: Davis has also ditched 0bama.

Jefferson or Patti?

It's occured to me that, if alive, Feynman and Einstein would probably emigrate back to Germany. ( I know he's American - that's the joke.)

Did anyone actually resign/retire/etc?

tenpoundsofcheese: Davis has also ditched 0bama.


From your link: " 'On the specifics, I have regularly criticized an agenda that would punish businesses and job creators with more taxes just as they are trying to thrive again,' he said."
First of all, the article says he's leaving the Democratic Party, not "S.S. Obama." Secondly, the reason he's leaving is because of derp.

that needs to be the new icon for that place.

The number indicates that the onslaught of people and politicians abandoning the S.S. Obama continues unabated. In recent weeks, allies of Obama have defected from his campaign message if not from his person.

That number, according to this article?

Two.

Some politician who apparently goes by the name Davis, much like Cher, and Cory Booker, who was disinvited from being a surrogate. I think Booker still likes Obama, but I don't follow the stupid high school shiat that these `controversies' are made of, so I'm not sure.

Oh, and apparently the second derivative of this chart



I think.

...and?

The whole war on women talking point seems to really have legs. The black vote will probably be down from 08 but not below the usual dem haul. The liberal donk core is more or less satisfied.


And the republicans main constituincies are a mess. They've got to somehow get everyone behind a guy with a liberal record, that pratys to the wrong god, who's got so much money he doesnt have to wipe his own ass, and who doesn't drink.

Obamas got supporters to spare.

My favorite articles from the right wing derposphere are the steady stream of updates on what Obama voters believe. Like they have any clue whatsoever of the thought processes of sane, rational people.

I don't think so. I have met many actually retarded people in my life and I have found them to be relatively nice people who generally don't mean anyone harm. This is clearly not true of the mouthbreathers at Townhall.com

I'm not an Obama fan either. The only problem with getting him out of office is the GOP and Rmoney. They are crap!

Proteios1: I'm not an Obama fan either. The only problem with getting him out of office is the GOP and Rmoney. They are crap!

Sometimes, yoou just have to bite the bullet...something Obama and Democrats never seem to do.

Shouldn't that be an 'offslaught' subby?

TheOther: Proteios1: I'm not an Obama fan either. The only problem with getting him out of office is the GOP and Rmoney. They are crap!

Because both sides are bad, so vote Republican!

Do these folks actually assume that, because the Average Joe now understands that they can't buy everything they see on t.v., that they're all dumb enough to blame Obama for that?

I mean, maybe Townhall readers, but come on--ALL Americans?

Consumer "confidence" might not ever be what it was in the days of easy credit, in the mid-2000s. Isn't that a GOOD thing? And isn't it great that the average person might finally get that through their head? After all, our consumer "confidence" and "satisfaction" stupefied us out of preventing two needless wars, and fueled the greed of the housing bubble.

Maybe now they'd rather have a President that gives a shiat about them as citizens, than another few vanloads of Wal-mart crap. Bad news for Republicans.

I'll go ahead and predict--material covetousness aside, not enough people will "abandon" Obama this year to prevent him winning by a pretty nice margin.

So, voters should abandon the SS Obama and get right back on the Titanic, eh? But, the band is still playing!
