There are states that will be going red that were considered safe for 0bama... Guarenteed... Watch where Barry goes down the stretch...
those states didn't go for dems the prior two elections, did they? nope. they didn't.
Which states? I didn't mention any... But I do believe PA, WI and possibly ME will go red in November... Maybe more but I'm liking the runup in those places as we get closer... Barry has to spend precious dollars in states he considered a lock.... Yikes!
i disagree...she stomped on both their necks. you just don't like that didn't let romney bully her like he did to lehrer. now THAT was a joke. also, anyone 'in the bag' for obama wouldn't have started with libya. would they have? you do know she picked the questions. they had almost exactly equal air time... they got cut off almost equally...
you just don't like your candidate's answers.
The Lybia Crowley reaction solidified my opinion of her, a complete in the bag 0bama hack... She tried to save 0bama, but it turns out Romney was right and she ate crow... She interrupted Romney 22 times and 0bama 9 times... 0bama had almost 5 minutes more speaking time last night than Romney (CNN's debate clock)...
Romney was the same confident Romney he was in Debate 1 and it showed in the after-debate polls where he took every category from the economy to leadership...
No, it's not improving... Only the left thinks it is while out of work people on both sides struggle to pay the bills or ffind a full-time job...
i don't know why the right is so vested in seeing us as failures. well, yes, i do. but let's talk about reality and not the talking points...
You'll have to join me in reality then.... Just because you and your family are making out ok doesn't mean the rest of the country is... Lots of "1%"-ers are able to do better for themselves...
the stock market is doubled
GM doing well (i know how the right hates hearing that so i like putting it up front, forgive me that bit of self-indulgence).
the housing market is up for the first time since the last administration
employment is down to 7.8%
* The poor don't really care about the stock market.... Besides, any gains made are overtaxed...
* GM is losing their shirt overseas, the VOLT is a giant waste of money, but at least their top management is pulling in good coin!
* Forclosures are way up, home values are way down... Sucks for people trying to refinance when their value is less than what they owe...
* U6, the unmanipulated measure, remains astronomically high... and a 7.8% U3 is NOT a good thing... We all know folks out of work... And now college kids can't even find P/T work because all the folks older than them are snatching up anything they can get...
now we can argue about the habitually unemployed and underemployed; we can argue about how to fix that; we can argue about the difficulty of paying student loans back when getting decent paying entry level jobs is so difficult.
but that isn't the sole fault of this president... not when even something as simple as raising the debt ceiling became an exercise in brinksmanship. do i think he should have done better being fired up and communicating... hell yeah.
It IS the fault of this President... Writing checks with no money in the checking account is wrong at home and wrong for the government... It was wrong when Boooooosh did it and it's wrong when Barry does it... The left complained about Bush's spending, but this time it's different... As long as Solyndra and other green failures get their cash, it's all good, right?
but even with that... i've gotten a promotion and a raise since he took office
my husband got two promotions, along with raises, since he took office
my family's business is doing incredibly well, (knock wood and all that stuff)
and when i ask my rightwing dad and brother what's so terrible, and what he's done that anyone before him hasn't done...they sputter... they get annoyed... they tell me i'm not a 'job creator'. lol.. but really, reagan raised taxes 7 times. and taxes were 4% higher when clinton was president... going back to that rate at least for part of the population is common sense.. no matter what grover norquist says. and, sweetheart, before you ask me to give up all the things that make MY life easier and better... like roads, reasonable tolls and transit fares, funding to schools... funding at my place of employment which has gotten it's butt kicked because of cuts in federal funds to the state...
I'm happy you and yours are able to do well in a terrible economy... You are the exception and not the rule... Kids out of school looking for full-time work are completely screwed... Seeing it firsthand, so don't try to blow smoke up my ass... A good education used to mean you stood a good chance of landing something in your field in a reasonable timeframe after grad... Now it's part-time doing anything to pay car insurance and gas while living at home because there's no way to afford to be on your own...
roe v wade struck a balance between when a woman's right to exercise dominion over her own body stopped and the governmental interest kicked in... it was fair then and it is fair now. and this really is a medical issue. it shouldn't be a political issue at all.
I have no problem with abortion for medical reasons / life of mother and such... If it's for birth control, I have an issue.. My belief comes from my faith and moral conscience that tells me it's wrong to take an innocent life...
your personhood laws would have prevented me from having my son... also a true story. is that being pro-life?
What law or potential law would have "prevented" you from having a child?
why does the right only like government when it tells women what to do? surely i don't need some government to make my moral judgments for me.
I know faith is a personal experience, but how does your feelings jive with your faith?
