Does Barack Obama want to be re-elected in 2012?

a link to an opnion column, in which her opinion is flat wrong. let me ask you this, have you ever known anybody in your life that ever did anything wrong? if so, well, you know.

You wanted links to Barry and Accorn, SEIU, Bill Ayres, and other communists..... I gave them, you caved.

Thanx for playing.
 
Well, as long as he has his loyal psychophants constantly blaming Bush for everything, I guess you'd be right, if only America was that stupid huh?


j-mac

If I'm so stupid how do I know it's sycophant and not "psychopant?" Oh wait, is that one of those made up words that Bush and Palin are good at? :2razz:

I can see why you loved Bush. At least we Obama "psychopants" have a better command of the English language. :lol:


You haven't changed since WS J-Mac. You're still the shrill partisan you've always been. And you're still a name caller. I guess some people never learn.
 
:lamo You doubt it? Not outright dismiss it, just a doubt......? uh, follow along Star...it's a hypothetical to show the absurdness of continually blaming the preceding President for the screw ups of this one. GAWD! I didn't say this will happen....Gheeze.


j-mac

Nothing but hyperbole.
 


Pardon me if I don't take more Obama parrots claiming the same. In any case I believe that the Wars plural, and total so far even if you say it cost a trillion dollars over the going on ten years, Obama has spent at least twice that in 18 months....You are kidding yourself if you think America is going to buy this blame it on Bush thing forever.

Gettng rid of some of the tax cuts is an effort to collect more revenue

You guys are on this look back at history kick. Increasing the tax load causes less revenue. It is proven.

I agrue we have to cut spending, and raise taxes, if we are to tackle the deficit. I would start with not fighting needless wars. But that's just me.

Is Afghanistan needless? Why is Barry still there? Are the 50K troops still in Iraq needless? That's Barry too. so what's up there Joe? I know, it's Bush's fault right?

Attacking the messenger instead of the message is tantamount to admitting defeat... looks like you lost.
 
J-Mac, your thread is flawed.

You ASSUME Obama realizes how much backlash is building towards he and his party.

Wait till after 2010 and see how he reacts to the spanking the Voters are gonna give him. If he doesn't change... then revisit this idea.
 
I forget why I came to this same conclusion, but it's been a while now. I really think he has no interest in running again. To me that makes him more frightening than ever. I don't think he considers what he is doing, as screwing things up. I think his agenda is to collapse our "capitalistic" society and replace it with socialism which will gradually lead us to communism.
There's a chance he may swing to the center after Nov. to maybe get re-elected but I think it's more likely he will keep doubling down on the things he's doing now.

Actually one of the problems we have in this country is politicians that are only concerned with being reelected vs. doing the right thing. It would be refreshing to see a politician that wants to get things right vs. just get reelected.

Did he not implie Obama folowers are "pyschopants" and "stupid?" Well?

I wasn't aware telling it like it is, is "admitting to defeat.

Seems to me you're really grasping.
 
Well...since you are totally derailing the topic...while you are bull****tin you MIGHT want to consider that MOST of that moeny we spent on both wars goes back into the American economy in the form of salaries, war supplies, equipment, etc being made by Americans. So...if you like stimulus plans...

The democrats have ADDED 4 TRILLION to the nation debt in under 2 years. The DEMOCRATS have had control of the purse strings in BOTH the house AND the senate for FOUR years now...

so...if you were to set your myopic and idiotic partisanship aside, you MIGHT realize BOTH parties have ALWAYS done their fair share of screwing things up.

Oh...and just out of curiosity...how much have we spent on Clintons war in Serbia? To date?

If you truly believe a war is the best way to stimulate an economy than your education has deperately failed you.

Serbia? Ooooh you mean Kosovo? Is that the one where we actually had a humantiarian mission against genocide and not one serviceman or woman was killed? You're comparing that to Iraq or Afghanistan? You're kidding right?
 
Does he want to? Probably, President Obama is a politician first and foremost and most politicians want to hold onto to their power as long as they can.

1-You dont engage war to stimulate an economy, goober. But war certainly DOES stimulate economies.
2-Genocide was but one of THREE primary reason Bush gave for going to war. if you justify it for Serbia, why then it must be a just cause for Iraq, right? And since YOu are counting war costs...you kinda have to look at THAT war cost too...the TOTAL cost...since we are still there...dont you. I mean...unless you are just a mindless ideological hypocrite.

If he keeps saying crap like this it might come back and bite him on the ass.

Obama urged Americans to challenge politicians who benefit from anonymously funded ads to defend the practice or back steps to change the rules. "The only people who don’t want to disclose the truth are people with something to hide" Obama said. Without the legislation, he said, the voices of regular voters would be “drowned out by millions of dollars in secret, special-interest advertising.” “This shouldn’t be a Democratic issue or a Republican issue,” the president said.

For the quote in context, when is he going to disclose all of his campaign donations?

For the quote in general......

Oh God that explains it. :yt

I take in all forms of media. Do you?
I watch just as much CNN, MSNBC, as I do Fox, if not more.
Where I find the truth and then some, is from Fox and 2 C-Span channels I get. Those and talk radio.
If you refuse to watch Fox, or C-Span, or listen to talk radio, it's very likely there will be things you will never know. The MSM tends to report only what they want us to hear and in the context they want us to hear it in.

Thanks Crunch. I can't post links with this dinosaur.
It amazes me that anyone could know all this about Obama's affiliations and still vote for the man.

:)

Too bad Obama's definition of getting things right means the destruction of the country as we know it.

The more you know about Barry the more amazed you are that he isn't behind bars.

Goober? What's with the name calling on this site? Do I intimidate you?

Wars can stimulate an economy in the short term but if you're comparing WWII to Irag and Afghanistan you're dreaming. WWII was a whole different enchilada and I don't believe we had to borrow from other countries to fund WWII. Don't forget there's inflation and capital depletion but considering you think wars are a gift to a country's economy I doubt you'd understand or listen.

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.

I was referring to FOX. If you can't see what a politically biased tabloid network it is I feel sorry for you.

:spin:

I take what all the cable news networks say with a grain of salt. They are out to make money and that money is based on ratings. They all pump up and sensational a story if it will bring higher ratings and be damned the truth. FOX is the worst at it.

That's your opinion and your'e entitled to it. Funny many felt the same about the last president. It's the same ol' partisan game, just now the other side is doing it.

Goober is a term of endearment where I come from...but if you want to get pissy...thats OK too...

The simple fact that the fiscal 'war costs' are ALWAYS either OVER or UNDER estimated...depending on who is calculating them and what their poltical agenda is.

Every mission flown by our aircraft...would be flown in peacetime for training. Every bomb dropped would be dropped in peacetime. Its what the military does. When we arent fighting we are training. To the same levels? No...of course not. BUT...since combat ops were suspended soldiers fire their weapons LESS than they would during peacetime training operations.

Those dollars paid to American contractors go into bank accounts that momma or daddy are using at home to buy goods and services...to provide for the kids...to buy cars and houses. Those soldiers that are deployed...momma is still home...paying the bills and also the hazardous duty, separation pay, and other extra dollars.

You brought up the cost of war...just be honest enough to figure the whole picture and not the part that is convenient for you.

And for the record...you may not have seen it before, but the reason there is a 'Libertarian' by my name on the polling and voting records is because I was disgusted by the lack of fiscal responsibility demonstrated by the republicans.

Both sides have spent us into that 14 trillion dollar hole. Not just Obama. Not just Bush. There is no way people CANT see that but there are a whole lotta people that WONT see that.

Don't feel sorry me. Fox leans right that's for sure. It doesn't mean they don't tell the truth. I feel sorry for anyone who doesn't watch Fox. No wonder they have no idea what's going on in this administration.
