We have been defined by our weakest, by our least knowledgable, most
gullible, most partisan and most dependant.

Voters that decided to re-elect a President that had no economic plan other than to abitrate fairness by pushing tax increases that will have no positive effect on the economy or on "revenue".

Voters that ignored the obvious lies of the Benghazi Cover Up and believed the left wing attacks against Romney.

Voters who fail to see that soldiers and Ambassadors are somehow less dead under Liberal administrations.

Remember the soldiers killed in action count under Bush ? The liberals and Cindy Sheehan getting a extraordinary amount of media attention ?

How many soldiers have we lost since 2008 ? Do we need the liberal media to remind us ?

They wont.

Who chose mediocrite and more middle class suffering over economic growth and beleived our current economic conditions are the result of Bush's policies.

What President before us has ever blamed his predecessor 4 years into his economic malaise ?

What kind of voter actually buys that excuse for failure ?

People that chose to ignore blatant Cronyism in the green energy scam that includes Solyndra and Fisker among many others but bought into the Bain Capital non-sense.

Voters that see no immediate concern in a out of control debt and deficit and the fact that 40 ¢ of every dollar spent is borrowed.

Most of it by the Fed Reserve.

Voters who bought into the eat the rich narrative but who don't understand that Qauntative easing has made the rich much richer, empowered WallStreet and low interest money from the Fed to banks stays their as the Dodd Frank banking reform has made lending to the private sector almost very difficult.

This free money also increases inflation BTW.

Barney Frank, the single most responsible politician tied to the sub-prime debacle as he argued for lower underwriting standards and in 1992 Fannie and Freddie under CRI and HUD comnited a trillion dollars to the sub-prime secondary market.

By 1995 over 55% of mortgages bought and packaged by Fannie and Freddie were mandated through HUD and CRI.

So here we are. A Country defined but the lowest common denominator, a Country defined by people who apparently must "live"misery in order to accept that it exist in massive amounts among our middle class.

Translation:

If people don't see the world the same way I do they are either stupid, evil or blind...

And liberals are supposed to be the elitist ones...wow...the irony is suffocating.

Care to rebut any of the specific points ??

Whatever their reasons for re-electing Obama the end result is more suffering for those who have been chronically unemployed.

Why would Obama voters and supporters ignore all of that and more ?
 
Remember the dust up over Valerie Plame ??

You guys wanted to impeach Bush over that.

And were quick to have a " objective panel" look into it.

Harry Reid says NO to an independent investigation....hmmmm I wonder why ?

Now compare it to Benghazi and the 10 days of lies about a "protest".

What's different ?
 
Strange that Meet the Press was all about Gen P and Benghazi today when that didn't matter before the election and was supposed to go away after it per some here......

Why rebut specific points when you don't raise any real points? Your spiel is absolute tripe. You have not facts to back up any of the opinions you put out. You have only hyper-partisan nonsense. That is why you got the repsonse you did. First try reading some real facts...not conservative echo chamber crap but real objective facts. Then base an opinion on those facts and we might have discussion. Until then have fun vomitting on the internet.

Then the Republicans should nominate someone with extensive economic backgrounds but also will advocate the rights of women, homosexuals, and minorities.

Not going on about the ills of social welfare while doling out corporate welfare would be a plus as well.

I would say that most countries are defined by their lowest common denominator, and our lowest common denominator has been declining, and gaining strength and significance, for quite some time now.
 
I would wonder where the gentleman has been to declare that now of all times, the American Republic is in the hands of the lowest common denominator.

Sorry but the points laid out in the OP were very specific and all your ad hominum rebut does is to re-inforce their validity.

IF they are incorrect then "correct" them.

I suspect more generalizations from you. You're too blinded by your corrupt ideology to offer up any objective insight.

Interesting. I stated that we're currently defined by our lowest common denominator.( it's true )

I've asked and asked again from those who supported Obama, why did you vote for him ?

I have yet to recieve one concise intelligent answer.

So if you can think of a time that a majority of our electorate has been so bereft of knowledge and understanding concerning our economic outlook then lets hear it.

I didn't vote for Obama, I voted for Romney. I'm just amused that you think this is somehow recent that people, generally speaking are "inept." We've had that sentiment since the 1790s.

I would argue it's far more pronounced now. 60 million ? Its a lot ofeasily manipulated liberals

again, sorry about your loss. Goodluck in 2016
 
How can you say he didn't provide any real facts? In some cases he did and in others he pointed out specific questions that are not answered. How many soldiers died was not reported during the election was a statement of fact - can you refute it? He noted people chose to ignore Solyndra and what happened to our money while focusing on what Romney did with his money at Bain - was that not factual? It looks to me like you prefer mushrooms to go wtih your cloud of darkness instead of anything that contradicts your point of view.
