Mines dropped us from our coverage and now charges us more for shittier coverage. I'll hold my breathe until someone in our media confronts Obama for being a lying mother fucker.

Good   luck.

And  I know I'm getting old when I   can remember when gas was .30 cents a gallon.

D+9 in OH and FL, vs. D+8 and D+3 in 2008 exit polls.

If people are too shit-stupid to see what a cluster fuck Obama is, then they deserve misery.

Yeah, but I sure as hell didn't vote for TFG.  Why should I suffer too?

#48 - Actually I saw recemtly that Romney suggested after the 2008 election that conservatives should be buying up newspapers/media outlets to try and even the field.  Hasn't happened though

#50 - Agree - I see these polls that say big ) win but all the anecdotal evidemce I see/hear on the ground says no way

#51 - Sad.  Act of terrorism leads to Americans dead and the administration and media just push it under the rug

Yeah, no, Ohio is definitely not a D+9 state. My non-scientific survey of coworkers (ER staff) would suggest a freaking landslide victory for Romney, as in Chicago Democrat levels for margin of victory, only without the fraud as a contributing factor. Here's hoping.

I'm getting roughly the same results from my non-scientific polls, too.  Very few of my lib musician-type buds who  voted for TFG say they'll do so again.

And the psyops  part of this is just amazing to me. We are being  bombarded with so many polls and  such that fly  in the face of truth and logic. I cannot believe that  TFG  could possibly get reelected. Of course, I didn't believe it the last time either, but with  his record  today,  there is no excuse for anybody with two brain cells  to rub together to vote for him  again.

The "genius" Barack Obama.  Well, I  guess I can start calling myself a brain surgeon then.  Wait, make that an astronaut. I always wanted to be an astronaut,  since just saying it now makes it so.

Cue  Ellen Ripley...

I doubt if it would drop at all. American Jews really do not give a shit for Israel. Almost all support in the US for Israel comes from Christians.

#59, #55 - yeah these needs to be pushed.  Given that this is personal not policy related it would be better coming from a PAC than Romney but it needs to get out there.

I agree that R and R don't appear to be fighting hard but I think some of that is because the MSM has completely dropped any pretenses and is fully protecting O.  It may be like that seen in the Avengers where Thor gets trapped in the cage designed for the Hulk and he is pounding away but hardly making any dents until he finally breaks free - let's hope R and R do the same before 11/6

Never in my following politics have a seen this before.

More anecdotal stuff;  you would not believe how many times I've heard that exact same phrase from   people,  many  of them people I've  met on the street. And it's not just politics, just everything in general.

If I was a church-going man, I'd say that something just might be happening that was foretold  a long time ago.

Good morning, morons.  Since we've started the day with those crap Q polls and are feeling a little down, here's a story tailored to the AoS lifestyle:

One day Sam Goldwyn and Chico Marx were playing a game of backgammon.  Chico was a brilliant player, but Goldwyn's little boy, Sam Junior, kept running into the room and knocking the board over.  A frustrated Chico told Goldwyn to get rid of the boy, but little Sammy kept coming back.

Finally, a fed up Chico grabbed the kid by the arm and marched him out of the room.  Five minutes passed, then Chico came back by himself.  "Let's play," he said.  Goldwyn was leery, but agreed.  To his surprise, the two of them were able to play an entire game without any interruptions.

Goldwyn was impressed with Chico's ability to control children.  "How'd you do it?" he asked.

Chico grinned.  "I taught him to masturbate."

Hope you all have a wonderful day.

You heard it here first!

You wouldn't happen to live up there, would you? If so, I hope you checked out the call for   Pubbie poll workers on one of the previous thread headlines.

re: Mike Rowe

It probably didn't help too much that Obama gave the Boy Scouts the brush-off at the National Jamboree a couple of years ago. It was the 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America, but rather than speaking in person (which is what presidents normally do) he sent a video message that was roundly jeered by the boys in attendance. Fortunately for him they had a much better stand-in, none other than Mike Rowe who incidentally was an Eagle Scout. Rowe's speech was apparently a massive hit with the boys.

Hope you all have a wonderful day.

Thanks for the snorfle, MPPPP.  Thank goodness I finished my coffee before I read that...

@100

Husband and younger son attended the 'dry run' at new non-federal, permanent Jamboree home in Southern WV. Loved it.

I've heard that place is very, very nice.

BTW, if you really want to be depressed, check out Ann Barnhardt's site today.  Long short, she says the election's fixed, Obama will win, he'll get all the debate questions in advance and Romney's throwing the election in return for a spot in the Obama cabinet.

I hope this is one time when she's a complete, raving loon. . .

And ain't that something BB? The feds don't figure in groceries and gas and yet, until I'm working again, my spending consists of those two, house and car pmt. and utilities.

No shit.  I'd really like  to see the R and R camp  crunch some inflation numbers with real-world purchases just to show us what the deal is. I mean,  everybody's seen it already to varying degrees, but everybody's grocery bill is up considerably.  Add to that the coming 10% rise world wide in food prices they say is coming and the Great Bacon Shortage of 2013.

Ain't progressivism just fucking wonnerful?

Obviously this is not the door of the Optimist club. I must have gotten the numbers mixed up. I was here for a bit of optimism.

Everyone is correct in the assessment that we're screwed by the media and by stupid people. The electorate is at the tipping point, and too many of those who actually do produce are dumb enough to vote democrat, while the 49% are smart enough to know that that's THE ONLY way to vote, in order to be kept in the manner they are accustomed.

That leaves just us conservatives, and we cannot give up. We have to have faith that we CAN convince our moronic counterparts to vote sane. I know that for the first time in our adult lives, my husband has volunteered to go door to door. (I've done it mind you, but him- never) It's that important. So everyone, go out. Do something. Make phone calls. Convince you old aunt, your next door neighbor and the mailman to vote for Romney, or if they plan to vote Obama, to stay at home! 

Armageddon is only 41 days off.

#111 - loon article.  No way R takes a cabinet post under O.  He either wins or he exits politics

O may get the debate questions ahead of time but any good pol should expect and be ready for 80% of the questions.  The tricky part is being ready to react to what your opponent says and be ready to attack that.  Let's hope the R that showed up in the GOP primary debates shows up and leaves O sputtering

More like accidentally ate some Jimsonweed out of the yard crazy.

Or maybe that wasn't basil she put in the spaghetti  last night. "I ate a whole big plate and I'm still hungry... where are those Doritos?"

Funny with the supposedly huge lead preazy enjoys in PA, I have seen a handful of lawn signs and bumper stickers supporting him, in an area that went for him by a 20 point margin in 2008. The foreclosure crisis in the Philly burbs is real. Zip codes that were formerly bulletproof are compromised. I can't see how people whose lives have changed dramatically for the worse would be inclined to re-elect the engineer of this debacle. Bush is long gone, no one can blame him anymore. Plus, Pat Toomey won in 2010, and the GOP retook the legislature and the governorship. These victories could not have occurred without support from suburban Philadelphia.

The Susquehanna poll is the only published poll that shows a tight race here. Chris Steagall of 1210-AM had the president of that outfit on to defend his findings. It's probably on podcast, I haven't heard it yet.

Guaranteed, 2 weeks before the election new theme will be Romney surging at of fear that Obama voters will stay home because they think the election is over.

That's what I don't get. They have to know that if Obama loses they're basically dead as an industry because they're telling everyone right now that the race is over and Obama's going to win easily. If this election turns out in any way similar to the Wisconsin recall then their credibility will be gone as the vast majority of Americans will never again believe them. I guess that's part of the reason they've gone from subtle bias to open advocacy.

Gee, no commentary on trying to weave a movie reference into the thread into the morning thread in #69

Romney will win by a large margin. 

I took a closer look at the Quinnipiac polls:

91% of the respondents in the 3 states were registered voters - statistically this should closer to 60%

94-95% of the respondents are considered to be "likely voters". Keep in mind that in 2008 only 75% of registered voters actually voted, so this number, on the surface, is simply preposterous.

So if they are oversampling democrats, they are also oversampling a sample group that simply will not vote at the rate they are projecting. So these D+8 samples are really turning into D+11 or D+12 when factoring in the polling inflation.

But sooo worth it.

I know the feeling well. Good luck to y'all. And if any of the  Horde hasn't clicked on  Teej's nick to hear  all the goodness, then  avail y'allselfs.

I am starting to hope Obama wins so these fucking idiots get what they want. Fuck em. Let social security implode and the US dollar tank, these people fucking deserve it.

Not a good idea.  If the dollar tanks the only people who get by are the rich.  Since most of us are not rich most of us will suffer.  I'm all for praying that he doesn't win.

I simply have to do something about that CBS station that wakes me up in the morning.  I am in a foul temper all day long.

The bad part about these polls is that realistically only 3% of the population understands about D/R/I ratios and M/F mixes.   They just listen and believe.

Posted by: mikey at September 26, 2012 08:20 AM (kmxWt)

What makes you think that John Gibson and Brian Kilmeade are on "our" side?

The MFM lost all credibility with the public after 2008. even Democrats agreed that the MFM was in the tank for Obama.

IMO they certainly damaged their credibility with a decent amount of the public in 2008, but if Romney wins this their credibility will be on par with Baghdad Bob. In other words, no matter what they say the public will reflexively believe the opposite to be true.

When this election is over, I am going to make sure I reduce my listening to talk radio and viewing of Fox.

Me   too.  I'm already stressed out and need to  take a break from all this crap myself. But  even with a Romney win, there's  still a lot of  work to do to recoup the waste and loss of four years of TFG. We still  have to take the Senate, I think   the House is pretty much a lock.

And I fully expect the economy to improve dramatically when R wins.  I'd like to get back to  work, but I'll settle for more gigs in the meantime.  I just don't have any more money to run out of.

The genius of Barack Obama was on display yesterdday at the UN. He said the Emancipation Proclamation set free all enslaved people in America.

It was force of arms that freed the slaves, not some speech or piece of paper.

There was an article at one of the news sites this morning that said Romney was not worried about the MFM polls. That tells me he has his own polls which are much better.

But that article is no longer up.

State Department waived ordinary security requirements for Benghazi Consulate.  Not a question of extra security. 

Saw that in a middle paragraph quoting a Republican as if facts are party dependent.   Is it f'n true or not?  Does anyone in the media care?

All indications for this election are that the Dems will have a low turnout. Obama will lose big.

You know, Vic, it's too bad we can't get some sort of "teaching them a lesson" meme going to depress the Dim turnout like what happened in '06 on our side. In hindsight, that was a pretty good psyop. It got the Botox Bitch and Hairy Reed into power. And we're still paying for that.

Terrorists:

We attack your way of life, and your free speech rights.

Obama:

It wasn't an Al Qaida attack, the attack in Lybia was the fault of Americans excercising free speech.  "Our future must never belong to those who defame the prophet".

Remarkable.

Good luck with your band/gigs BackwardsBoy! Do you guys have a site or anything on u tube we can check out?

Not that they've told me about. We're kinda in a holding pattern for now, picking up gigs wherever we can find them. We're just a three-piece doing classic rock, but began as a quartet with me on bass, something we'd all like to go back to.

We're just waiting for the   economy to rebound, then we'll start a push for more gigs with a real, live web site. Until then, we'll just play out as much as we can and try to get by. I've got a couple of Biketoberfest gigs at the Cabbage Patch down here. Should be fun, I've never seen the coleslaw 'rasslin' before.

Looks like he is demanding at some point force of arms or political will will need to reassert liberty here.

I think he is just an idiot who believes that if we just think happy thoughts and say happy things then everything will fix itself. There are no evil people (aside from American conservatives), just misguided people, and all we need to do to convince them of their error is to talk to them.

He is then in violation of federal law.  But they never enforce that portion of Motor Voter.

Updated at 7:59 a.m. ET: An anti-Islam film that sparked violent protests in many countries had "nothing to do with" a deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi earlier this month, Libya's president told NBC News.

In an exclusive interview with NBC News' Ann Curry, President Mohamed Magarief discounted claims that the attack was in response to a movie produced in California and available on YouTube. He noted that the assault happened on Sept. 11 and that the video had been available for months before that.

"Reaction should have been, if it was genuine, should have been six months earlier. So it was postponed until the 11th of September," he said. "They chose this date, 11th of September to carry a certain message."

Oh Barry, even the president of Libya says you should drop your little BS about the video

@224 

The new Libyan leader, Mo, sounds pretty reasonable and tells the truth, IMO, far more than our own politicians or media.  Yet I'm sure he's a fairly hardcore Islamist.  Second look at theocracy?

I irritated the shit out of an ossifer who evaluated one of my gunnery runs when he mentioned that  I "serviced the target."

Appliances are today where the automobile industry was in 74/75.   Regulations have forced the manufacturers to turn out things that just don't work.

Dishwashers, top loading washers just don't get things as clean as they used to ten years ago and before.

Posted by: sTevo at September 26, 2012 09:04 AM (uIz80)

When I moved into this house I bought a new washer and dryer.  They both lasted about 25 years.  We replaced both with GE products. The bearings in the dryer went out in less than 5 years.

I did a lot of checking out on the net and it turns out none of the dryers now are worth a shit. I went down to Lowes and bought the cheapest ting I could find. 

It use and throw away now even with major appliances.

Okay, here's a question for folks.      I'm probably going to annoy some people, but hear   me out.

If this most recent kerfluffle in the NFL hadn't happened on a Monday night game between two potential playoff teams, would it be getting anywhere NEAR the media attention it's gotten?   If it had been a one o'clock game between, say, Buffalo and Cleveland, would it have received even HALF the attention it's gotten?   In either case the argument would be the same -- a blatantly wrong call that cost a team the game.     But would it really be dominating    the national    media attention    in the same way?   

I suggest that no, it wouldn't.  

The fact is this isn't about the officiating.     It's not about player safety.     It's not about the    sanctity of the game.     It's about the playoffs.  It's about fantasy leagues and betting   pools in Vegas.   It's about a hugely popular, big market team being gypped out of a win to a conference rival on national television.  

This is why I'm so annoyed by this story.   Folks don't want to talk about these things -- the REAL reasons why     so many     fans and players and coaches alike are angry.     It's come up in a few stories, but if you    listen to sports radio    it's barely mentioned.     

Look,    if you want to debate that the    old refs need to get back on the field to ensure that games move faster, that   player   safety is better maintained, and that    the   rules are enforced equally and fairly across the    board, then you bet; I am on board with that 100%.  But if that's the case then the uproar should have started in week one with    the Arizona/Seattle game that very nearly    went to Seattle despite Arizona clearly having won;   only a dropped pass    saved that game from being an embarrassment.    By a week later it was forgotten.

If you want to talk about player safety, you should be pointing to all the illegal hits that go uncalled    --   the chop blocks and horse collars, the unnecessary roughness,   the on-field skirmishes and fights    --  that have been happening every week in just about every game since the start of the season.  

It is absolutely legitimate to    be upset and even angry about what happened Monday night.   But I'm sorry; it is not a watershed moment because of some pie in the sky realization about player safety or fairness.      It's because a lot of people saw it happen, and a lot of people -- a LOT -- lost a ton of money.   You're damn right I'd be pissed if I was one of them.   But can we at least be HONEST about it?   I'm looking at you, ESPN.     If this had been a 'Who Cares' game between two teams that no one thinks are going to make the playoffs, let alone the    Super Bowl,    with    close to zero    talent on their    rosters     that would make a difference in the audience's fantasy leagues, then no.  This wouldn't be a story.   It would be a cautionary tale:    "See what could happen to YOUR team?    Imagine if this had had playoff implications!"      But the baying for     Roger Goodell's blood, for the heads of the replacement refs,   would be     a quiet     rumble in   the background    that   would be largely dismissed by the sports media and not even touched upon by the mainstream media.     

Anyway, like I said, I'm probably going to annoy some people with this.  But it's been    making me itch with aggravation and I had to get it off my chest.    Your mileage may vary.

*leaps down off soapbox*    Excelsior!

Florida is not D+9 though the Connie "FB" Mack v. Bill "FR" Nelson looks unpromising perhaps. 

I will not be suckered into not spending ten minutes voting however.  I'll do my limited and really simple civic duty and then pat myself on the back for another four years.

You're probably still thinking this is an election like Bush/Gore or Bush/Kerry, where there was a body of persuadable undecideds.  This is not the case today.

Although there is a substantial group of ultra-low information voters, there are few undecideds left.  Turnout is the only variable now that matters, which is why the MSM is trying everything possible to depress republican voting. 

Mitt's money is better spent on ground operations than filling the airwaves with commercials no one is going to pay attention to.   

Just to be clear, Quinnipiac is an Obama advertising channel.  Here's the demos for their polls:

FL: D/R/I 36/27/33 D+9

OH: D/R/I 35/35/26 D+9

PA: D/R/I 39/28/27 D+11

D+11?  Seriously?  They have to go to D+11 to get a +12 number for Obama?

At this rate they'll just stop sampling Republicans altogether.

The conservative blogosphere really needs to amp up reporting  the major flaws in these polls and do less bullshit like Malor  does here.

Hell, it seems Dick Morris is the only one pointing this out.  Hannity had him on the radio yesterday to sooth some of his eeyoring.

#293 - I understand it is easy to think we are deluding ourselves by not believing the polls like in 2008 but there are too many data points (2009 VA and NJ, 2010 elections. 2011 WI, etc) to think 2012 will be like 2008.  Not only that some of these polls are assuming 2012 will be more De than 2008 which is very hard to believe

#311 - I thought that also - that the R money is going into the ground game rather than ads that people TIVO through

#358 - the stock market is up because the Fed has pushed rates to 0 and the money has nowhere else to go.  That is why the market rallies whenever the fed announces QE whatever.  If rates start heading up the market is coming down

#363 - saw that letter.  Problem is Ingraham, O'Reilly, etc. don't seem to have gotten it

You Pathetic Load of Communal Horse Cum have every excuse under the sun as to why Obama's beating Romney, except the most obvious ones.  For starters, all of his competitors in the run-up to the nomination called him a vacillating weather vane, completely dependent upon consultants.  When you look at the series of gaffes in that light, even a liberturdian has to say, "hey, ya know what, I'm not sure I believe this android.  i mean, I hate Obama's black ass, sure, he's a commie -- but this mannequin ... shit, at least I believe that Barry believes most of what he says."  The other reason, which YPLOCHC will NEVER EVER admit, is that the Republicunt party, since it's been hijacked by goat-fucking libertardians whose brain activity is that of a Mississippi boll weavil, has NO MESSAGE to give to the American people that could possibly resonate.  Unless, of course,  you think that o abortions ever (even due to rape), tax cuts for the "small businesses" (the rich), belt tightening and "tough decisions" (gutting the social safety net IN THE MIDDLE OF A RECESSION, mind you) for the middle class, and, of course, the annihilation of unions (the last guarantee of a living wage for the working class) is an effective message.  which YPLOCHC all seem to believe.  thank you, libertardian, racist, greedy, self-deceptive fringe dwellers.  You can all be proud that YOU, more than anyone else, handed this election over to Obama.  (smooches!)

"If they turn out in large numbers, Hispanics could sway the outcome in several swing states."

Hispanics  in most of the swing states make up a very small percentage of the voters.  Even those who are counted as "Hispanic" may be whiter than Romney, however the MSM interprets their presence as if they just swam across the Rio Grand. 

Uh, guys? Saying "half - or almost half - of the electorate sucks" may well be true, but I don't see it as a winning message in a democracy.

Put another way, the Makers vs. Takers distinction may also well be true, but. Goody goody gumdrops that it resonates with a fired-up base who already believes it.  But those people were never going to be 0bam voters anyway. Romney should have been able to win that demographic just by breathing (the ABO, crawl-over-broken-glass vote).

If that line of messaging turns off enough people in the middle and in swing states, it's not a winning message. I know y'all think the REAL majority is with you, and ALL the polls are LIES. Good luck with that.

Is that the simple fuck under a different moniker?  He usually can't help from using the term "knucklehead" although he might be trying to adopt a different personality to match all the voices screaming for attention in his otherwise empty noggin.  Funnyt that he uses Deniro's character in the King of Comedy as his nic since that's how I think of Preznit Talk Show.

Complaining about media bias is a broken record and just makes us look whiny. Was the media biased in 1980? 1984? 1988? 2000? 2004? 2010? Yes! And for a long time there was NONE of the counterweight. Heard of Fox News? Rush, and talk radio generally? or AoSHQ and the dextroblogosphere generally?

Look: either the old media is a dying shell (Fox ratings kick ass vs. NBC etc.; NYT and WaPo are circling the drain, so who gives a shit about what they say) or the dread MSM bias actually matters. I don't see how it can be both.

They are closet conservatives, and can't get enough.

Marrying your sister doesn't make you a traditional family values guy

  Music fun is the end-all, be-all brother.  God knows the business sucks.  Moron beer would be good.  TN is the 'natural' home of all morons, IMHO.

They MAKE those?!?!  Where?

You seem to have a thing for 'horse cum.'  I think we can safely say you're not a 'traditional family values' kind of guy.  Still, the thought that actually bothers me most right now is our long, overly detailed experience witnessing liberal 'projection.'  Leave the kids alone.  Seek help.  Before its too late.
