Mittens Says 47% Americans He Wont Worry About

[Mitchrapp]

That's the problem. We have a guy as POTUS because the guy opposing him is dumb-ass.

he was out in Cali today talking to the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce members....I dont think he is only looking for voters with incomes of $45+......seriously your comment is a stretch..as usual.

ya....he said this on the same day he spoke to the hispanic COC.....effing brilliant! Speaking about his dad...


“And had he been born of Mexican parents, I’d have a better shot at winning this,” the candidate said, referring to the presidential race, and getting a big laugh from the crowd. “But he was unfortunately born to Americans living in Mexico. . . . I say that jokingly, but it would be helpful to be Latino.”

not if Romney wins by 2...Electoral college will go Romney

Do you honestly think Romney has a chance? My god, for all you say about Obama and blame him, wait till the debates where Romney needs to have a fucking chastity belt on if he wants to walk home right. The democrats, if they do it right, will make a complete fool out of Romney when it becomes the right time.

I just look forward to the "Obama is not actually an American" ad the GOP will launch the day before the election... because... well, they don't give a fuck about facts.

How do you expect Obama to defend his record?.....He ranks at the bottom in too many categories since WWII. No teleprompter, I'd be worried if I was a Dem

Bush put us in a free fall tailspin. It doesnt matter who wins.....the US is fucked and theres nothing either guy can do about it. Deficit will inflate even further with either guys plan. Jobs wont be back with either guys plan. Why?...cause they arent here anymore. Theyre gone. Business took their "job creator" tax breaks...pocketed them...and closed 40,000+ factories which resulted in record profits, no middle class, and no one paying taxes to pay our bills. We dont manufacture anything anymore. Were not smart. Were not self sufficient. And we owe a fuckload of money. Its a recipe for disaster. Move to Mexico and try to get a job there while you still can.

We could all move to Mexico and call it US - South.

atleast the term "war on drugs" would mean something!

Certainly wouldn't have a problem if you wanted to go. Feel free.

Me on the other hand, I will stay and do whatever I can to make it better.

By pissing people off on a message board. Has warner bros contacted you yet for their next super hero movie?

You tend to have republican ideology which means you cry about paying your fair share of taxes, gasp at the thought of raising them, and then cry when the deficit is too high cause no one is "doing whatever they can to make it better". How is that help? Or is it that republicans only wish to help themselves?

That's a boatload of words to put in someone's mouth. Past the pissing off part, you got very little right. You are assuming what I meant, when I said "making it better". You know nothing.

In no particular order of importance, these are some things I do, small but I did qualify it with "what I can do":
1) I recycle relentlessly.
2) Even though I could drive a much bigger car, my main get-around-town car is a Corolla. If the technology gets better, and the price comes down a lot, I will probably get an electric car too.
3) I vote in every election, Local, State, and Federal.
4) I ran for the schoolboard, but the winner was a THuL in a liberal district, like you and champ. (Tree-hugging liberal) for the uninitiated. :*)
5) When I am going to church, I take part as cantor, Eucharistic minister, and have held a number of other positions throughout my life. If you don't know how that could make "things" better, you must not read my posts.
6) I take part and volunteer for charities every chance I get. I donate money and time to the Boys and Girls Scouts, Hospice, March of Dimes, and a number of others.
7) I am working to make the world's airports more secure (little by little - doing what I can). That is actually what I do for a living.
8) I support Wounded Warriors, and if I could donate more time, it would be to this amazing group.
9) I am constantly reading, trying to determine why people I disagree with are so adamant about their position. If it is just "spat back talking points", I give that crap the time it deserves.
10) I pay my fair share of taxes no matter what you think. I don't knowingly cheat on my income or even exaggerate my deductions - I believe that is just plain wrong.

There are others, but stopping here gets my point across. I will match what I do to make things better, with many of the posters here. Notice I said MANY - we can always do more.

Republican ideology does NOT preclude one from doing whatever they can to make things better. It also does not mean, when considering what people less well off are going through, you can't show compassion and concern, even if not able to physically help. I aspire to be tolerant and non-judgemental


. . . as I said. I DO WHAT I CAN. Do you get it now?

Probably not, but hey I tried.

If you want to leave, then leave - I am staying - even in the case of an Obama win, or even a total financial collapse.

good for you for most of those, but maybe it's better you lost this one.

Creationism belongs in religion class, not science, biology, or anthropology.

To be honest - I really couldn't afford the time, but I was willing, as I thought there were some real screw-ups by the previous board, but more in-line with hardships that it placed on some students. It is a more affluent district, but sometimes, it was like the current board was only considering what would affect their own children.

Also, I would not be in favor of creationism in the classroom. I have no trouble trying to reconcile the two things, but that is your church's and parent's job, not the school's.

. . . but you are still right. They would not have liked me very much. It would have made my life hell. :*)

 

[Michchamp]

i don't have a church.

 

[Michchamp]

edit: maybe I should start one?

my church would be awesome. It would be tastefully decorated, without any of the garishness present in the temples and such of other religions.

I'd stand up in the front, and read short statements of common sense, logic and reason in my calm monotone voice. We'd listen to some chill music, and I would pour everyone a glass of wine, or an IPA, joking that I had transformed it from water. We'd all laugh at how silly you'd have to be to believe something like that.

After the ceremonial "drinking and mocking the fools in other religions" was complete, people could petition me for advice on problems they were having.

Then I'd have them come visit me in my law office and pay a retainer, and in return, I'd advise them. It would be a tax free front for the business.

a shade more honest than any other religion at least. And my advice would be useful, unlike the BS you hear from those clowns in robes with funny hats.

I once did so much math and science they let me wear a robe and a funny hat.

Well then I guess you will have learn Creationism from your parents. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.

In any case, the point was you wouldn't learn it at a public school in my district, if I had anything to do with it.
