Probably no surprise from here on out just a grind

Ah! Forgot about the who will win. Nice. Keep these going, good. My votes won't change now, but if there was somehow an option to reduce the margin or certainty for the Obama vote I would utilize it.

How many of you know someone who served in Iraq or Iran?
dayman replied to /dev/null's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
You know there comes a point where successful actors always become this? Will Smith for instance is just Will Smith in most his movies...same can be said of DeNero...this is what happens when you get old and established. -
I would get the book "The New New Deal." It is a left leaning author...but it holds no punches back it reveal the sausage making in all it's glory...without a doubt the best thing available to understand what happened. If you want to learn about the stimulus...this is THE thing to read first, and then you continue on of course from there to round out your understanding Opposing OBAMA's Stimulus in mass. They had many a stimulus proposal of their own...all of which got a majority of GOP support despite the versions being wholly different from themselves...and btw...700B was one that got support..so the idea it's about the money is ridiculous.The only common scheme to the GOP stimulus proposals was that they weren't Obama's. That's it. Money. Areas on influence. All over the place. It was politics plain and simple.
-
Of course some people got in on the action. All you need to do is study the stimulus to understand though, that as a bloc there was no cooperation in mind from the very beginning. And Arlen Specter...he's the one responsible for the damn Cocaine Monkey's the GOP then called ridiculous.
-
It comes of as partisan to say this. But this just isn't true. Plain and simple.
-
I do agree with the general point...but the actual fact is in his 2 years he passed a ton of extremely significant legislation. Whether you like it or hate it...within the first month of his Presidency he had done more than most do in 4 years and he had checked off about 70% of his campaign promises.

Describing yourself as a consitutionist is nonsensical
-
You don't remember exactly right. He insisted he said it, then said check the transcripts, then Candy said it was in the transcripts.

The repeal Obamacare....lol...it's like closing guantanamo. Not going to happen and everyone knows it.

hehe, if you buy the narrative that Obama made Washington gridlocked, then I have a bridge to sell. you. It's like saying some guy who's boat leaked fuel in some river which has various manufacturing plants polluting it as well and other boats leaking fuel into it...like saying that guy polluted the river. Well, yes...he did...but it isn't his fault the river is polluted. And that isn't even a good analogy b/c quite frankly, the way the incentives in Washington are you literally cannot help but leak fuel...there is no way with the current procedural rules in Congress and partisan forces in local districts that anyone can be some "magic man"...not Obama in '08, and certainly not Romney in '12...which is why when people bring up Mass as a liberal state and him being governor they just sound stupid b/c it's basically admitting they don't understand Washington and why it sucks...it isn't Mass
-
Example if Romney says oil production on federal land has gone down and Obama says it hasn't and they sort of go back and forth and at times Romney says it's gone down 14% in a year then as they quibble he says it's going down generally and Obama equally being weird about it and says it isn't...and the truth is it went down 14% last year but hasn't gone down net over the presidency...it's not her job to jump in and say "whoa, BP oil spill, also let me explain the lease situation, also there are concerns about the administrations focus as Romney says, also the year stat is right but the trend it is trying to show is misleading, and on and on"....that isn't the role. If they literally go back and forth over a plain and simple fact of record, she can say it is or isn't on the record.
-
LOL retraction. Candy said Romney was wrong on "act of terror" and he was...he was focused on that trying to make Obama seem like a liar for saying that he said that...he said that. Candy also said ON STAGE the video issue was also a cluster. Which she said after. The right knows no bounds when it comes to the bubble here. There was no retraction. She said the same thing after, that she did on stage. She was not wrong. Romney was wrong on his weird little attack he thought would be a "gotcha moment." Once again, it is nobody's fault but Romney he thought he had a big win focusing in on some semantics about the word terror.
-
For a moderator to be fact checking everything on the spot, not possible and not correct role. For a moderator to speak up when they actually know that a plain question of if something was or was not said is true or not and the two candidates are both insisting one way or the other...totally fine b/c the bottom line is these debates aren't for a candidate to look great...they're for the people watching them...and the people would just prefer to know in that moment of nonsense who was right since it's a matter of record and they both say the opposite.
-
I still don't get this. THey went back and forth over if the transcripts said this, he was trying to call his opponent a liar on a strictly factual question. The American people watching and in that debate are like "I have no freaking idea"...there is a right answer and she gave it. This is good. On Fox News afterwords you have people screaming "The time for fact checking is after the debate"...actually...in a situation such as that...it's during the debate. If you don't want to be wrong, then don't be straight up wrong about a black and white issue. And btw....nobody even did this to Mitt...Mitt was focusing in on this weird semantic "atc of terror" issue all on his own...so don't be mad at anyone but Mitt if you think it hurt him.
-
It is absolutely amazing how retarded some of you are. Mitt was fact checked b/c he spent time fixating on if "act of terror" was used, and was trying to make Obama look like a liar, he was instantly fact checked, was completely wrong. Get out of your bubble. Candy went on to acknowledge there was confusion over the video, which to Mitt's broader point can be said. But if you are angry that he was fact checked on "act of terror"...then you are a conservative bubble dumbass who is just angry Mitt looked bad so you find a way to pretend it didn't happen.

please proceed governor

Connie Mack v. Bill Nelson Debate Link
dayman replied to dayman's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Mack trying to argue that extending the debt ceiling was stupid. Mack is a knuckle dragger...as Boehner would describe it -
Connie Mack v. Bill Nelson Debate Link
dayman replied to dayman's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Haha, well this fake Mack isn't coming off like the sharpest tool in the shed. Although he is going hard after Nelson over this cow farm Nelson has. -
Not that anyone probably cares but they go on at 7. Close race for Florida Senate Seat. There have been some pretty rough ads too. Repubs need this one if they still dream of pushing for the Senate. Also it would mean Florida has gone completely red on basically every issue of Mack wins. http://www.wptv.com/generic/news/news_livestream1/live-streaming-coverage

It hasn't been open season on the Al Queda network? I think you need to read more news...or maybe less of the news you read....
