How quickly we forget- if we ever even noticed in the first place...

(President) Obama abolished the United States' use of torture and the CIA's secret prisons. He restored the liberal internationalist approach to foreign policy and made a historic outreach to the Muslim world. He stabilized an economy that was spiraling into a depression.

He expanded the Earned Income Tax Credit and made major investments in job training, education, infrastructure, clean energy, housing and scientific research. He saved the automobile industry.
He forced the health insurance companies to stop excluding people with preexisting conditions and to stop dropping people when they got sick. He made an enormous and historic gain toward universal health care. He signed a financial reform bill that established a consumer protection agency and put most derivative trading on an open exchange under the regulatory umbrella.
He ended the war in Iraq exactly as he promised.
He ended "Don't Ask, Don't Tell." He blocked Republicans from eliminating federal funding for Planned Parenthood. He suspended deportation proceedings against illegal immigrants lacking a criminal record. He has supported family unity in immigration policy. He stood up to the oil lobby on the Keystone XL pipeline. And he has represented the United States with consummate dignity.
Somehow, all of this is routinely discounted or forgotten. If Obama does not win a second term, a Republican administration will savage Medicare and Medicaid, enact yet another massive tax cut for the 1 percent, and try to privatize Social Security. Obama, for all his shortcomings, is still indispensable to the cause of ending the Reagan era, and of preventing something even worse than the administration he succeeded.

Kendall: "If the democrats get in we are screwed. If the republicans get in we are raped.
Some choice."

Ah!....Reality strikes again!!...The same people OWN both parties, and the agenda is THEIRS, not ours, 'WE the PEOPLE'...and we virtually have NO say. We don't get to vote for the puppeteers, just the puppets!
Good observation Kendall!

As to Ebbie's....just more duped partisan nonsense from the naive....ask Kendall!

But we CAN'T re-elect Obama. He's Muslim, he was born in Kenya, and he's WAY the wrong color.

How do I know all this?

Klaatu landed in my back yard last night and HE told me so!

Symptom of a psychotic....doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results

Actually this isn't my thread...I wasn't so STUPID to vote for him, nor would I be.....I'll leave that to the psychotics...wanting a handout, and going for the bribe!

There you go again!..I didn't vote for Ron Paul, in the last election. He was not even on the ballot!
I guess it doesn't matter how wrong you keep getting stuff....no wonder a 'light' never goes on. If you don't get fed bullshit, you make it up to feed everyone else!!

Non-stop propaganda machines!

My state will go for Romney this time around, so I'll vote for one of the third parties. Still hoping for a Paul/Kucinich ticket.

Never thought I'd support the mass-murderer Obama, but I think that this time around he's better than the other elite candidate (we only have one party in America, and its two heads this time are pretty beastly).

Romney's an animal. Anyone who would put "asset stripper" on his resume has a lot to answer for out of the gate. And then there's the cult issue. He's a member of one wacked-out cult. That's fine for him, but not for me. I don't want him and his cult in Washington.

So that means that of the two major puppets, I hope Obama wins. He's slightly less insane than Romney, and a WHOLE lot more vulnerable. Obama would be impeached in his second term. Fast and Furious alone will do that, but if he manages to connive a win over the wishes of the banking elite, then they'll drag out the big guns to bring him down. Lots of skeletons in his closet.

So I won't vote for Obama this time, but I hope he beats Romney. Obama, the greatest American traitor I've seen in my lifetime, but I hope he wins so we can properly deal with him.

Obama is a long way from perfect, but, Mitt is even further away from it.

Mitt far from being perfect ???

Mitt is a lying sack of crap and a chameleon into the bargain.

He would be an absolute disaster for the country.

Let's hope enough of us see that. I can't imagine a woman voting for that pair.
