Reelect Prezident 0bama

I smell fish in the oil markets. Something is awry!

Also, I’d like to opine on the overt manipulation by the media, attempting to brainwash people that American’s “do not relate” to Romney. Excuse fucking me, and pardon as well, I relate much better to a man of industry than some oddball community organizer fellow with a nefarious and secretive past.

Fuck the alphabet soup.

    True. Some people will vote for Romney because they believe he will lower their taxes. Nothing else matters to people for whom this is the only relevant issue.

      True dat- for just about anything. But there are many more reasons to vote Romney.

      Let’s get this shit over with already. Send the cyanide pills to 70% of American households. Institute the soviet system of community self-sufficiency. Get rid of the Constitutional republic. Allow unelected hand-picked assholes to determine your local individual carbon footprint.

      Just spare me another freaking bullshit fakey “election.”

      Get this shit over with already so we can properly enter into the downhill slide of bullshit, useless communism.

    1) FIG

    2) In 2008, I distinctly remember candidate 0bama zinging Bush (The Younger) that $4 gas was a sign of failed policy and yet another reason for change. Whoda thunk he’d be so right?

      really, buylo? Is that your talking point? Do you have any proof that Romney, Ryan = Recession? or is that just your retarded view point with no proof to back it up?

      Romney, Ryan are probably the only thing that will save this country from bankruptcy thanks to your beloved Obama.. Get a GD clue!!

        Dems don’t have facts, they use repetition until some idea is embedded into their psyche. statistics are another form of lies because most of them don’t actually know about standard deviation and variance to understand that a statistical fact is only a strong correlation given the sample size. If Obama is ahead in the polls, it only means based on the sample size he is ahead in the polls at the given moment but he’s within the margin of error, so you cannot be 90% that over the entire population that if everyone were to vote immediately that he would win. Over the course of a campaign, a large majority of the people will change their mind anyways.

        On the contrary, the policies of 2001 to 2008 are what CAUSED this recession — (1) An 8 year war fought with a big budget, but without one ounce of congressional funding of said war; (2) Two tax cuts enacted around the beginning of the decade, ALSO unaccompanied by ANY balance sheet corrections to the spending side; and
        (3) A financial crisis in 2008 that has reduced GDP, personal, and corporate income levels substantially so as to FURTHER erode the tax base.

        Starting 9 months into the current administration, the economy has ADDED 4.5 million jobs. The current administration has attempted NUMEROUS times to compromise with significant cuts in government spending tied to significant increases in upper-echelon taxes, not even as high as the levels prior to year 2000, actually quite reasonable levels if you look back 10, 20, 30 years. All of the job creation bills have been KILLED by spiteful republicans eager to make the opposition party administration look bad before elections.

        The current administration is attempting to get a compromise between lower spending and higher taxes — to massively kill spending with government layoffs will just sink the economy into a DEPRESSION rather than the current RECESSION, which is arguably slowly receding.

Believe THAT.

      But just wait until election time & you will see just how many people’s opinions you do not control.

          “A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations has been 200 years.” This quote is attributed to Alexander Fraser Tytler. In 1814, John Adams said “Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide.”

          BTW – I have disdain for Dems and the media machine.

    I have been voting since I pulled the lever (literally) for George McGovern (hey, I was in college, 14 draft numbers from Laos/Vietnam, no job, and he was going to send every American a $500 check).
    0bama is not a liberal (progressive is the pc word today) but a hard core socialist, at best.
    I recall liberals who, at least had some scruples- McCarthy (Clean Gene), RFK, Hubert Humphrey, Everett Dirksen, and even Tip O’Neill. People (whether you agreed with them or not) who loved America, capitalism, and wanted us to succeed as a country.
    JFK has to be rolling around in his grave (with Marilyn Monroe) if he knew what happened to his Democratic Party.

    Just saw 2016 Obama. I am speechless that the theater was me and one other person. I have more conviction to learn a second language so that I may someday leave this burning Rome 2.0

    I will have nightmares tonight.

    The movie was made before the 4 Americans were killed.

    The climax of the movie was that the middle east has nukes and USA is broke and powerless.

    Prediction: The market will skyrocket and then explode as the dollar becomes worthless.

    I am 25yrs old and the american dream was everything to me until I realized that my friends are already being taxed 100% (in the form of student loans they will never pay off because 1. They feel they do not have too and do not want too & 2. Because they can’t.

    FUCK YOU EVERYONE OLDER THAN ME I am moving before you make me your slave. I hope you kill your fellow democrat later over a bag of Cheetos.

    0bama on Letterman didn’t have a clue so far as the size of the national debt. He didn’t know the answer, guessed it at $10Trillion, said he didn’t know. Romney should put that film clip all over the teevee in his ads.

Was he listed as Muslim in the school he grew up in in indonesia until age 9 (What the hell is up wiith THAT anyhow)? Are THOSE made up facts? Is it a ‘made up fact’ he is pressuring Israel NOT to attack Iran while avoiding meeting Israeli leaders? (But meeting crack-rapper JayZ – whose music is good I must say)? These are not ‘made up’ facts, they are FACTS.

    Who the hell cares if I “relate” to a presidential candidate or not? I have never once in my life spent time or had a conversation with a president. I have no reason to relate to any of them.

    BTW, Obama is also filthy rich. But I can’t relate to a rich person who gives practically 0 to charity. (Filthy rich Biden gives even less). But the media wants me to think I can’t relate to Romney because he’s rich? LOL, I’m not having beers with Romney any time soon. But I’m sure I would enjoy that more than having beers with a leftist ideologue like Obama. Those dudes are annoying as hell.
