It's their fault that they're lazy and feckless and unable to get a good job?Quote:

Romney is only a fan of limited government when it comes to taxing the rich and helping the poor. If you want a fan of both limited government and freedom, vote Johnson.
Perhaps a return to sanity and reason is in order, as opposed to the "wing nuttery" of those who have a limited understanding of economics and political philosophy.
Here's something I found which is (IMO) quite interesting - especially in light of the claims that Obamaism is all about communism/socialism/fascism/Nazism... :rolleyes: I'm not on the Obama bandwagon, nor am I his biggest fan. But the ridiculousness of the claims by some of his critics has made me not want to see people of that ilk getting (back) in power. What has happened to intelligence in the conservative movement in America? What has happened to people like the late Jack Kemp? Have the paranoid wing nuts and ill informed flakes truly chased them away, by calling them RINOs for not agreeing with every single iota of their right wing social radicalism???
Doesn't it seem rather odd that if Obama is indeed the greatest expression of communism, socialism, and whatever other nonsensical, self-created ism that people want to come up with, that more sectors in the greatest expression of free market capitalism (the equity market) would apparently do better under an Obama administration than under a Romney administration? Yeah, weird. :confused: But what do those 1%'ers know about stocks anyway?
What Stock Market Is Saying About November Elections
At the current rate, someone like this will be the GOP candidate for President in 2016. God help us all!Quote:
Stock sectors that could do well if Democrats win in November have been outpacing those that might be in favor if Republicans get control of the White House and Senate, according to an index created by LPL Financial.
Democrats were assigned health care facilities; food and staples retailing; gas utilities; health care services; life sciences tools and services; construction materials; homebuilding and construction and farm machinery.
Republican sectors are coal and consumable fuels; diversified financial services; oil and gas exploration; oil and gas drilling; managed care; electric utilities; specialty retail, and telecommunications services.

In the opening post of this before it got out of hand, I had Romney winning by only 8 votes in the electoral college. And that assumed based on pre-polling data that or the 50% states in the Union, all would vote identically to they way they did in 2008 with only a very small percentage difference.Quote:

In January during the primaries, I predicted that it'd Romney-Rubio on the Republican ticket. Rubio would have been a good thing to put on the ticket because he's got a fresh face and tactically having the Senator from Florida would have been useful in flipping Florida back to red.
The last poll survey which I read had Ohio at Obama 57-Romney 43. 14 points is a lot to shift.

6 Worst Lies In Paul Ryan’s Speech
By Aviva Shen on Aug 30, 2012 at 9:36 am
http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/...an-300x225.jpg Vice presidential candidate Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) is taking flack on the morning news shows for his keynote address at the Republican National Convention Wednesday night. His speech was riddled with false claims, so much so that even Fox News wrote, “To anyone paying the slightest bit of attention to facts, Ryan’s speech was an apparent attempt to set the world record for the greatest number of blatant lies and misrepresentations slipped into a single political speech.”
Here are the most glaring lies from his speech:
1. “A downgraded America.” Ryan blamed the president for the nation’s credit downgrade in August 2011 after Republicans threatened to allow the government to default on its debt for the first time in history. But the ratings agency explicitly blamed “Republicans saying that they refuse to accept any tax increases as part of a larger deal.”
2. “More debt than any other president before him, and more than all the troubled governments of Europe combined.” Romney has made the almost identical claim, that Obama has amassed more debt “as almost all of the other presidents combined.” But their math doesn’t add up: when Obama took office, the national debt was $10.626 trillion. It has increased to slightly above $15 trillion.
3. Shuttered General Motors plant is “one more broken promise.” Ryan described a GM plant that closed down in his hometown, Janesville, Wisconsin, and blamed Obama for breaking his promise to keep the plant open when he visited during his campaign. But Obama never made that promise, and the plant shut down in December 2008, before Obama even took office.
4. Obama “did exactly nothing” on Bowles-Simpson. Ryan said, “He created a bipartisan debt commission. They came back with an urgent report. He thanked them, sent them on their way, and then did exactly nothing.” In fact, Ryan was instrumental in sabotaging the commission, leading the other House Republicans in voting against the plan.
5. “$716 billion, funneled out of Medicare by President Obama.” Ryan’s favorite lie is a deliberate distortion of Obamacare’s savings from eliminating inefficiencies. Furthermore, Ryan’s own plan for Medicare includes these savings. Romney has vowed to restore these cuts, which would render the trust fund insolvent 8 years ahead of schedule.
6. “The greatest of all responsibilities is that of the strong to protect the weak.” Ryan closed the speech with an invocation of social responsibility, saying, “The truest measure of any society is how it treats those who cannot defend or care for themselves.” However, numerous clergy members have condemned Ryan’s budget plan as “cruel,” and “an immoral disaster” because of its devastating cuts in social programs the poor and sick rely on. Meanwhile, Ryan would give ultra-rich individuals and corporations $3 trillion in tax breaks.
OK?
Dead-enders from the old regime are fawkin with my confuser!
