Some days, I just have to laugh. If anybody had told me a year and a half ago that I would be on these threads championing Barack Obama's re-election, I think I would have called them crazy.
But, time and options can change perspective, and that is what has happened with me. I am deeply disappointed in the Republicans' choice of a candidate and even more disappointed in the lack of vision or balance in his proposals. I oppose them adamantly.

well good for you. Those of us that oppose obama, do it mainly because he has not done much of what he promised he would, and he has too many weird and dangerous friends in his past and present.

You sure are cute...are you married? do you need a sugar daddy? how bout a sugar grand daddy?

I believe the only way to create an economy built to last is to strengthen the middle class, asking the wealthy to pay a little more … so that we can afford to invest in education, manufacturing, and home-grown American energy.

Well let those republicans know that the next republican president will do everything he can to make sure their jobs are easy to outsource so they won't have to take care of anyone else...

And that is Romneys plan. Outsource everything and then call it success.

I’d really like to see Mitt Romney say that he will release his tax documents when Obama releases his college records.

Romney doesn't think Olympians deserve credit for the medals they win or the records they break? Why does Romney hate athletes?

As expected your sexist comment tells all, the lady has class and outsmarts you at every turn! The lady actually has real thoughts (imagine that) as opposed to your repeating wingnuz noise like a retarded parrot. Your wingnuz pea-brain can't handle it resorting to school yard bully mentality ...

<quoted text>I'm focused on what Mitt Romney intends to do: increase defense spending, cut social welfare safety net programs that protect the most vulnerable, overturn legislation intended to protect us from predator capitalism and another financial meltdown, give capitalists free reign to continue outsourcing without penalty, increase taxes on the low end of the income scale and increase cuts on the wealthiest as much as $150,000 - without any plan as to how to go about reducing the debt. It can only happen when the shortfall once again is foisted onto the backs of the middle class. No. We've had too much of that program already. If the middle-class must further suffer, let it be AFTER those who are more capable paying their fair share have the Bush era tax breaks ended. We SHOULD reduce corporate taxes, but on the other hand, they should be expect to pay that reduced percentage.

Her boys & girls is an excellent example of why Libs can never again be allowed to control both Houses of Congress and the White House.

It WOULD be nice for you if she DID just go away, wouldn't it? That way you and your doppelgangers wouldn't be forced to face such unpleasant things like... the truth! But the truth is, if NTR wasn't spouting sense to you, someone else would step in and try to fill her place. The thing is, she does it so well that some of us who agree with her are less able to express ourselves as well. That, of course, is an excuse and I apologize to her for trying to use it. But she is GOOD! I mean, Look how easily she reduces you to childish behavior! You walked into a battle of wits unarmed. Maybe you should take a break and get some training before you try again, Hmmm?

thanks Frank, good to hear from you again....If you end up marrying Barney Frank, your name will then be Frank Frank.

If Romeny becomes the President the USA will blow up and fall into the Atlantic Ocean and the world will end as we know it.

You are DEAD WRONG.

Obama has proven SOCIALIST on that score.

Barack Obama has some 'splaining to do about taxpayers' profitable "investment" in General Motors. It turns out the president is imagining things.

Though Democrats tout the auto bailout as a success, recent reports illustrate the taxpayer cost of the GM auto bailout was substantially larger than the Obama administration and a Congressional Oversight report has owned up to.

"American taxpayers are now positioned to recover more than my administration invested in GM,” President Obama said, according to a piece in USA Today last November. Steven Rattner, former head of the Treasury's auto task force agreed, telling CNN in November:“Recent progress at GM gives reason for optimism that it may be possible for taxpayers to get every penny back.”

In fact, Investor's Business Daily reported that even the White House’s Director of the National Economic Council remarked that the Treasury Department Department had a good chance in "recovering most, if not all, of its investment in" GM.

However, a March 16 Congressional Oversight report, tells a different story. It estimates taxpayers will be out of $25 billion. Additionally, the report points out that “full repayment will not be possible unless the government is able to sell its remaining shares at a far higher price.”

That's only the beginning. Both the White House and the Congressional Oversight report omit the fact that during its bankruptcy, GM got a $45 billion tax break, courtesy of the American people.

GM is driving “away from its U.S.-government-financed restructuring with a final gift in its trunk: a tax break that could be worth as much as $45 billion,” reported The Wall Street Journal last November.

Over one year after the promises President Obama and his administration made about the auto bailout, a February piece on AutoBlog also confirms that GM will also get a $14 billion dollar domestic tax break:

GM will be able to skip its tax tab due to years of massive losses. Companies are typically forgiven a portion of future taxes due to their past losses, but that benefit is typically stripped after an organization goes through bankruptcy.
However, the Obama administration and its allies presently continue to celebrate the success of the auto bailout, regardless of the facts. "I don’t think there’s any doubt that this was a success," said (H/T Detroit News) acting assistant secretary at the Treasury Department Tim Massad, who oversees the TARP program at Treasury, to a House panel on Wednesday.

In Obama's world, success mean taxpayers only lost as much as $84 billion."

Yep,

“Where did all the Obama stimulus money go? Friends, donors, campaign supporters, special-interest groups. Where did the Obama stimulus money go? Solyndra. 500 million taxpayer dollars. Bankrupt. So where did the Obama stimulus money go? Windmills from China, electric cars from Finland.”

Senator Charles E. Schumer, Democrat of New York, says,“Seventy-nine percent of the $2.1 billion in stimulus grants awarded through it went to overseas companies.”

We get it!

You are a liberal Obama kool-aid guzzler that would vote for Obama if he was running against Jesus himself.

You have bought off on all the liberal tripe they could shovel down your gullet.

But you are cool. Sophisticated. Try to present yourself as balanced and thoughtful.

But you are none of those.

You are a liberal shill. A wolf in sheeps clothing.

Like a siren drawing ships to the rocks with their melodies, so you try to present Obama and liberalism as a good thing.

It is not. Never has been. Liberalism has failed EVERY time.

Can anybody find us a real Republican to come post on these threads? I am aghast at the sheer audacity of the lunatics here to abduct the party and try to pass themselves off as members of it.
To every committed Democrat, I just want to beg you not to assume these bigots, idiots and morons are reflections of the millions of Americans who have identified with being Republican. They are conservative, not insane. They are thoughtful, not thoughtless. They have been so intimidated and pushed into silence by the loud angry voices of extremism that they remind me of the many Christians who have been driven underground by the hateful, bigoted, demanding voices of the outrageous self-described Christians (but who are anything but) who have absolutely no compassion - completely counter to the tenets of Christianity:
The Republican Party has lost its way, succumbing to the will of the far-right fringe
http://blog.cleveland.com/letters/2012/01/the...
The Republican Party has been taken over by a fringe element so far right that Barry Goldwater wouldn't recognize it. This new Republican Party has lost its way and has become a party insanely obsessed with destroying Barack Obama's presidency at all cost -- even if it means destroying the middle class; a party of shrinking the government safety nets that actually gave our parents a path to the middle class; a party that will privatize public assets in order to enrich its contributors; a party of more deregulation so the Enrons, WorldComs and Tycos of the world can destroy the pensions and savings of hardworking, middle-class Americans.(Continued:)
.........
The almost unbelievable reality is that these people here are mostly from the blue collar and middle-classes themselves. It's the most self-destructive movement I have ever witnessed with it's collective suicide mission. Don't drink the kool-aid. Somebody go find a Republican for Topix. I know they're out there somewhere with electrical tape over their mouths and their hands tied behind their backs.

You have rightly spoken and yet are ill informed.
The current Republican Party is alien to the Reagan Republican Party.
However, there are many of us that are going to replace the "machine" and its choices thrust upon us for their hand picked ones. Romney unfortunately is one of those. We have made great strides in both houses and will continue to do so until the pendulum is corrected.
Even you Democrats have greatly drifted from your core values (few that they are) and is bring this country down exponentially. But, while your "occupier" fleebaggers try to sway you, they sway far more left than the D-Party of 60 years ago.
What is missing is conviction and we intend to bring that back.
You'd do well to do the same rather than the mode of name calling all the time. Focus on America and not character assination. That being said, we focus on O'Bama's failures and not him as a person. There's a stark difference.

MORE LIES AND HALF TRUTHS FROM A KNOWN LIAR.

Congress voted on the appropriations of this bill not Obama. Learn how your constitution works.

About three-quarters of the $814 billion in stimulus money has been spent or distributed to taxpayers, state and local governments and companies hired to do work under dozens of programs.

<quoted text>Oh, I'm confident that there are as many Americans who see it the way I do as who see it your way - maybe more;-) The margin of error makes it hard to know which of us is correct at the moment. Still, I've got a lot of company who believe Romney is not the solution to our problems.

u haven't REALLY been reading what I've been saying, have you?
Romney is NOT the solution. he is but merely a step in the right direction. the solution lies with the People's reps, the House and the Senate.
thirty TP-backed Reps really threw a monkey wrench in to the Establishment Pols, didn't they? think what 60 or 90 or more can do... plus 10 or 20 Senators. plus a few more 'rogue' States. PLUS a sympathetic Pres.
the New Progressive Democratic People's Party MIGHT keep the Presidency, BUT NOT the House. and, they might lose the Senate. what good is having the WH then? an even MORE Imperial President?
how much more of any Pres usurping the Constitution do u think the MAJORITY of the citizens will stand for?
remember this one little fact: half of the eligible voters DON'T bother to vote (and haven't for 40+ yrs)... and it wasn't because they were happy with BOTH pol parties and their actions. do u think it was because they were happy with the direction the Nation was headed?
ur POV, like the extreme right's, represents 20% or LESS of the voting citizens (half of that is 10% or LESS of ALL citizens). that leaves 60 to 80%(90 if u include the extreme right's 10%!) that DON'T agree, in part or in toto, with YOU.
I'd rather have Romney until 2016 than what we have, a KNOWN radical, Progressive SCUM masquarading as a Democrat.
Come ON Nov.

I believe this is known as "flip-flopping". Others refer to the same action as "evolving".

Just so we're clear.
