— Ace Helpful. I think Perot's still got some sway with crotchety types (i.e., disillusioned conservative-leaning independents).
erot accuses Obama of shouldering the nation with unsustainable debt: “In the last four years during Obama’s presidency, he’s added around $5 trillion to our national debt, more than any previous president.“It is this massive deficit spending that threatens to undermine our future standard of living,” he adds.
But the Texas businessman cautioned that efforts to rein government spending should not weaken the nation’s military. “Even as we have engaged in runaway domestic spending, the country has been put on the path to massive cuts in the defense budget.
“History teaches that the price of military weakness always exceeds the price of preparedness,” Perot continues. “And yet at a moment when turbulence is sweeping critical regions of the world, we are increasingly unprepared.”
Meanwhile, in a local Iowa paper, thirteen Iowans take out a full-page ad to apologize for voting for Obama in 2008, throwing their support to Romney.
Meanwhile, in Iowa, Obama is talking about wind, and how women make good teachers.

Now the ones with farms and businesses are getting crushed. Others have gotten pay cuts to keep their jobs.
Yeah, they won't be voting for Obama this time. They are all voting Romney.

And a minor quibble: " heÂ’s added around $5 trillion to our national debt, more than any previous president."
It's actually "more than ALL previous presidents combined."

Perot is no conservative. Hell his solution to the deficit was yet another damn tax increase. You would figure someone with a brain would figure out we have never in the History of this country cured a budget deficit with a tax increase.
Yeah, he had a lot of people fooled. Plus he is just about as nutty as Ron Paul.

Do you mean Polk county? Des Moines county does not contain Des Moines, the city.
Obama's really pushing the early voting thing here. Not even "vote for me" but "vote early for me".
Well, I voted on the first day. Didn't even fill in the straight party oval, wanted the pleasure of doing it race by race.
And no on every judge. Let 'em get a real job and know who they work for.

I have been saying this for over a year. Moochelle will be announcing that she is in a "family way". They will fake a pregnancy, complete with "sympathy belly". Once they are safely ensconced in the WH, she will suffer a "tragic miscarriage". The Obamas will bring a divided nation together as we all mourn the precious life that was lost. Yup.

Ace, he's actually running ads hitting Romney because he wants to defund Planned Parenthood.
I still don't see on what planet he thinks that will net him votes.

>>>162 A follower of the Religion of Peace set up a plot with an undercover FBI agent to blow up the NY Fed today. The target he originally wanted to hit was Obama.
Fortunately, he was a typical stupid one and got caught.

CNN: Man arrested in plot to blow up Federal Reserve bank in New York
Quazi Mohammad Rezwanul Ahsan Nafism, a 21-year-old man, has been arrested on suspicion of planning to blow up the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, federal officials said. Authorities say he attempted to detonate what he believed was a 1,000-pound bomb. This story is developing.
And, um, "binders."

It was affirmative action, dude. When you have an AA president, you have to tailor the program so he doesn't feel "slighted" or have to actually, you know, work hard.
"Fairness" (thank you, Poppin' Fresh) demands that the whole show be rigged so he doesn't feel inadequate. He has spent his whole life being propped up and petted by others, so it's a little late to change things now.

They. Don't. Get. It.
How many times over the last couple of years (including this summer) did Obama say something truly stupid which gave a wonderful, concise, and representative soundbite? "You didn't build that." "More flexible." And so on?
And every time he'd get pummeled because of it.
I think they really deluded themselves into believing that Republicans had taken those lines "out of context" and that it was the soundbites themselves, instead of the ideas they represented, that were the bludgeons.
So they think they have these winning soundbites with Big Bird and binders, and they run with that, never realizing that the point of snappy soundbites is to make people look up the context- which, in this case, truly does favor Mitt Romney.

Oct. 16, 2012 Exclusive:
Christopher Monckton of Brenchley on how BHO fits definition to a "T"
Communists believe big businesses should be owned by the State. Obama believes that. One of the biggest businesses of the lot is health care. He has nationalized it.
Communists believe any businesses that escape outright State ownership should – in a mendacious proxy for ownership – be regulated down to the tiniest light bulb. Obama believes that.
...
The coming crisis of communism is this: “Socialism is all very well until other people’s money runs out” (M. Thatcher). In America, as in Britain and other vassal states of the anti-democratic European tyranny-by-clerk, other people’s money has run out. The vicarious sweetie-auction using other people’s money that is the usual substitute for genuine political debate is dangerously unaffordable.
America is going down. The central failure of the Republicans – some of whom understand the size of the debt problem – is that they have not found the courage to confront it and squarely to admit that those who pay taxes will have to pay more and those who get sweeties will have to get less, that the budget must be balanced immediately, all debt to China and other alien regimes repaid, your nation’s sovereignty restored, and national bankruptcy and collapse pre-empted.
As Cicero once wrote, “The arrogance of the State must be tempered, its spending curtailed, and its revenues increased, lest it become bankrupt.” But then, Cicero was no communist.

We're not supposed to beat up on people who voted for Obama in 2008. We're not supposed to ask them what the f**k took them so long to figure out that this stuttering, incompetent, inexperienced cypher would, with virtual certainty, fail at this job. We're not supposed to make them feel bad about being clueless, gullible fools who dragged the rest of us down with their vote for this feckless, incompetent blowhard. We're told if we do that, we might just cause them to vote for Obama again because their feelings got hurt by pointing out the obvious to them.
Is it any wonder this country is in trouble?

And, of course, the one scenario in which they tie at 269.
Posted by: joncelli at October 17, 2012 12:47 PM (RD7QR)
If no candidate reaches 270 EV, the House of Representatives elects the president, and the Senate elects the VP.
For the House, the winner is determined by state contingent vote, not individual representative. If it were a 269-269 tie (it is possible), the House would vote... and Romney would almost certainly win.
It would also open the possibility of Romney winning the presidency and Obama being his VP.

So sorry to quibble, but, they do not have to fake the belly, just remove the SPANXX and let the blubber run free. As to winning a few sympathy votes, it might, but, the two kids they have are not the least bit winsome. The oldest one needs something done about theat mustache--surely Beyonce or Oprah could clue Moochillini into a good dermatology practice that makes house calls. Right now, most folks without a job or any savings are too worried about their own kids to stop and tear up about another obama git.

It was a myth, largely based on the fact that they had more of a clue about social media than McCain did. But ever since Sarah Palin began to put out substantive posts on relevant issues on FB, everyone in the DNC camp got quiet about Internet skillz. To get real Internet savvy, you have to pay for it. For goodness sake, everyone knows that the Taupe Dope has a shill that handles his Twitter feed.

No shit!
Being a female INTP and having people expect you to be a genteel Southern lady your whole life will make you nuts.
Then again, INTP and bi-polar disorder share a lot of traits.
