I love Romney, it's like he's going out of his way to make sure all of the attacks used against Obama in the '08 election are invalid this time around. You can't take Mitt seriously if he says Obama is an out of touch elitist. Mitt can't say that Obama has done nothing with his time in office, while knowing HCR was based on Mass. You can't possibly say he's weak on foreign policy, in fact he can't bring it up at all because all he has done is piss off other nations. Any possible (and obviously fallacious) comments about his religion have to be avoided because that opens the door on questions about being Mormon and where his loyalties lie. God I want the debates to start soon. Granted Obama could win just by letting Romney talk for both their turns, but it'd be nice to see an active offense as well.
God Bless you Mitt, you out-of-touch, money grubbing, un-reliable asshole. The democrats have never looked so good and they had PAlin to help last time.

Lionel Mandrake: tenpoundsofcheese: Watching this makes me look forward to the debates. He knows the details and has strong viewpoints. 0bama will fall back on vision statements feel good things and demonizing successful business people.

I have yet to see a better response to tenpoundsofcheese. I shall begin using that myself anytime he drops a turd and refuses to even attempt to polish it, much less apologize.

gimmegimme: Don't you feel bad for people like tenp0unds?

With 0bamacare he'll be able to finally get help for his pre-existing condition, so no.

pacified: I don't see why having kids gets you a tax write off.

Future soldiers. The military industrial complex starts its investment early.

gimmegimme: When will righties realize that Obama is everything they claim to love and say they are

Let's change that to: When will righties realize that Obama the black man is everything they claim to love and say they are... do you still think they can see it?

SERIOUS QUESTION: Republicans - you had a good argument going with the whole "we pay too much taxes" angle. I disagreed, but at least you had a message. Now you're complaining that people aren't paying ENOUGH taxes. This is the exact opposite of what you've been saying for the past three years. So now I'm confused: Are you happy for the 47% who don't pay Federal income tax because you're against taxes, or are you mad at them because you LIKE taxes and you want people to pay more?

pacified: I don't see why having kids gets you a tax write off.

Because children are the future. Obviously.

/Have one. Love him to death even when he drives me to distraction.
//More seriously: because we have a social contract that says that I pay a little less tax now while I bear the cost of raising my child, who will more than pay that back when his taxes are supporting your and my Medicare and Social Security.
///Or would you prefer that my child file for himself as "Single, not head of household"?

Hidden Cam Clip Has More Views Than All Official Romney Videos on YouTube

Your campaign is bad and you should feel bad.

shower_in_my_socks: Now you're complaining that people aren't paying ENOUGH taxes.

No, they are very specific and careful here... *those people* don't pay enough taxes. here those is very dynamic. What matters is that *we* pay too much they would say, and *they* don't pay enough. It let's them keep their righteous indignation. .

For the debates, I see two scenarios: 1) Mitt whips out his dick 2) Mitt doesn't show up

It seems to be his only options at this point.

cr7pilot: At first I was thinking that this was a really stupid thing to say, and it was, but as always, the truth hurts. Unfortunately, those people are out there. One of my facebook acquaintances posts:

"Obama better win his next term. I can't handle a rich snobby Republican running the country, not to mention raising our taxes and jacking our foodstamps while Kim Kardashian can get some more lip injections and 75k rings."

She obviously has a keen understanding of politics and economy. She's also never held a job for more than two months and frequently complains about how she cant get more meds for her ailment of the week. I'm pretty sure she's a registered voter.

Clearly I need new friends...

I'd say your friends need new friends.

As I said yesterday: Mitt just insulted the GOP base, but they're too misinformed to realize it.

No, he must show up to the first one. Otherwise there's no point in the others as it's practically forfeiting the election. His only choice is to answer the questions with exactly the party line talking points, refuse to be goaded or answer any questions from OBama, inject no personality into the debates. He has a hair of a chance if he becomes the recital robot we remember him being before he turned out to be such an utter cocksicle.

coco ebert: I don't think so. I think Romney's voters will pretty much support him no matter what. I don't think it will gain him independent voters but it won't lose him many either. However, it may fire up the Obama base who need to turn out to vote in November.

Romney being a disgusting pig is making me more inclined to vote for Obama and less inclined to vote third party.

/isidewith says i side with Gary Johnson, in 2008 I got the crazy old guy from Alaska

djkutch: 1) Mitt whips out his dick



/there's a reason they hide it behind magic underwear

CapHuff: I'm an old guy. I am a Republican. I don't care if you disagree with me. I like to argue politics with open minded people. I haven't been on this site for quite a while. There used to be a lot of back and forth. Now it seems to be the mirror of a right-wing freeper site. That is too bad. I am voting against President Obama's attempt to serve two terms because I do not believe it is in America's best interest to have the government redistribute wealth I'm an idiot who believes Right Wing propaganda. IMHO, what made this country is opportunity, and the fact that if you work hard your background does not matter. The failed policies of FDR and LBJ have not helped the poor, just the opposite. I do not believe that anyone should be receiving a tax refund for more tax than they had withheld. The government is not your Daddy. I have five kids, not a lot of money to go around. Once my kids grew up, they took care of themselves. They are not counting on the government or Daddy. Whatever - if you gotta hate, hate the opposing candidate. But don't hate people just because you disagree with them. I voted against this guy, but he got elected. He sucks at his job, in my opinion, but I don't hate him. I didn't even hate Jimmy Carter, who was worse than this guy, and he wasn't even a Kenyan! I did hate Clinton for a while when it was clear he was a liar, but I also hated Nixon when it was clear he was a liar so I have no guilt about that. You guys laugh at the idiotic mindless froth ITA, but in my reading of the comments in this thread, I see no real difference.

When all is said and done, a flourishing economy is what will make things better. President Obama has failed to improve the economy. Unless you count, y'know... the economy. While increasing the national debt by going on 5 trillion dollars. His predecessor was a total boob. But I voted for him anyway. Twice. His opponent is a total nerd. If there is anything your generation should understand, it is that the really nerdy guys (admission: poster is an engineer) but the nerdy guys know how to fix things. President is and has been ...

mrshowrules: Romney's camp probably thought no stinking hippie Liberal could scrape together $40K for a plate.

It could only have been this guy!

ExperianScaresCthulhu: You need better friends.

/birds of a feather
/and lying down with dogs....

Here's my thing: I don't hang out with people bobbing head agreeing types, I tend to hang out with people of differing views to get more informed on subjects. Sure, I don't agree with what my friend said, I even called him on the irony of the situation and his flawed thinking, but in the end of it all, he simply stated: "I farking hate Obama." It's not because he's black, or muslim (like my parents tend to think) or that he's running the country into the ground or things of that nature, it's because he was a medical student (flunked out of med school, to be completely honest) because he wanted to be a doctor like his mother. He felt Obamacare is the ruination of the medical industry and there's no way he'd be able to be rich like his parents if he followed through and became a doctor. He really felt this way!

I will say he's been unemployed because he quit his job at USAA. He can't find a job anywhere, and he truly believes it's Obama's fault and quotes Romney's promise of 12 Million jobs in the next 4 years as the countries only saving grace.

Here's where I stand:
Romney: Ain't gonna happen. Even if I did vote for him, he won't win this election with things like the video posted above. Were he to win, the Left would scream about voter fraud and ballot box fixing and God knows what else as the reasons he won. We'd also be in worse shape overall because he honestly has no real plan for once he's in office. He's going to hire a bunch of bureaucrats that he agrees with that will run the country like their personal piggy bank, setting up their friends to make tons of money, ala Cheney and Halliburton. I believe this because it is the track record of the Right Wing, if this is what they've done, they're going to do it again.

Obama: Winning this election means nothing if the house and Congress go red. They'll continue to stymie him the whole way, while Congress gets nothing done, or fillibustered into eternity again. Nothing will get accomplished, just like the last 2 years, and the nation doesn't move forward from the recovery. Again, with history as the teacher, the Right will sink our country just to snub Obama, and he doesn't have the gall or balls to stand up and make them do their farking jobs. Sure, he's witty, charming and good at speeches, but that's not what we need as a country.

What we need is a Teddy Roosevelt to go in and start cracking some political skulls, take the mother farkers to task. The Democrat party keeps laying down whenever the 'Evil Right' roars and stamps it's cloven hooves, effectively giving into their demands when they have a minority in the Congress. Their belief is if they give the Republicans something, they'll in turn give something back, which has sort of been the way for many decades. But this new breed of the Right are more extreme than ever before in their history. They're also fractured, which is Obama's only hope. With the Right being so fractured catering to the fringe groups, they're having a hard time collecting them all at the base, But again, even if Romney loses, this country still doesn't win.

When Bush was in office and held the Congress and House, they bumrushed all sorts of stuff through the system. The left does not do this. I've always complained that the Left can't even throw a farking birthday party right. They get down to getting the ice cream and start worrying about offending people that want Chocolate as it'd be racially insensitive to not have it present, and people with Strawberry allergies have to have something besides Vanilla, and Rocky Road is needed to, but they'll need to get some Chunky Monkey for the people with Nut Allergies, and let's not forget the representatives that want Butter Pecan and before you know it, the Republicans have run off with the cake, knocked up the birthday girl, and opened all the presents. Now, it's the Rights turn to feel this pain as they try to appease the Truthers, the 'True Christians', the 'Real Americans', the Birthers, The Tea Party... they're fractured and having trouble getting them all to agree, but in the end, they'll all just punch the ticket labeled (R) for no better reason than the other side has a (D).

When you tax something, you get less of it. So tax the living schitt out of the poor and you won't have so many poor people.

I made this point in a redlit thread and a Farker opined that Ann may have an MS flare up just before the first debate. I'd be happy for them to bring Rafalca in on the debate floor it would help them struggle through.

cr7pilot: Yes, clearly I'm the idiot here...

If it comes down to your ditzy acquaintance being able to have food stamps or Kim Kardashian being able to afford some more lip injections, I'm going to side with your ditzy acquaintance every time. Hopefully Obamacare allows her to pick up some health insurance while she bounces around those entry level jobs.
