Herman Cain / Marco Rubio.

I agree in part with Ms. Osier...
Herman Cain/Condelezza Rice

No question Obama and Biden are the dream team.Experience and a steady hand on the tiller is what this country needs.Obama is onthe correct path but hindered and hampered by a negative and recalcitrant congress bent on sabotaging his every move for patrician gain. For example one million jobs could have been created if the Republican congress had passed the president's jobs He understands that to keep this country moving we need education, infrastructure investment, research & development ,a rational immigration policy, and a balance in regulations & law. These are the five things that our parents and grandparents invested in before the perversions of trickle down economics(Reagan) and of you can have it all without paying(Bush) .Something that Reagan and especially Bush failed to understand. The Republican strategy offers no hope. Indeed their cynical election tactics proves my point. They will create voter frustration with massive negative ads, voter suppression laws, appealing to the white male "DixieRepublicans" with veiled racists remarks and suggestions. One day this group will wise up to the fact that their interests are not served well by the Republican party. But until then you can read their comments. I will savor a Democratic victory in the fall.

BD- I tend to agree with you on that as Condi Rice has sooooo much actual experience with foreign policy. She won't though. She's made it clear that she won't run. And why should she? The left would crucify her nad her family. Terrible climate we live in these days. Sad, too. You can't get a decent person because of the persecution they and their families would have to put up with. I'd like to see Rubio run when he's moe seasoned. I think he has tons of potential.

@Chris and Tammy Osier
Trick answer to see if you two read.Obama cannot run again in 2016 only Biden can run.You failed and confirmed my thinking.

Nice try George but I'm afraid that it is you who failed AGAIN. You said "I will savor a Democratic victory in the fall" AND I said "If Obama wins in the Fall, it may be considered a victory by the democrats but it certainly will be no victory for the future of America"

Again, this is why no one ever considers your input seriously.

Did George say something? Oh, never mind. Scroll on. And to Brian, you'd be surprised at the Republicans that have no problem with a person being fiscally conservative, but socially liberal. There are more conservatives out there that can see two sides and weigh the two and make a decision on who would be the best person for the job overall. Just as you have bluedog democrats (that you liberals have a hard time acknowleging). So many times you all blame republicans for blocking things when you had a buttload of bluedogs standing with them. The difference is that we acknowlege ours. I have a feeling you just don't talk to your opposition very much in order to get a more balanced view. I have yet to meet a conservative who would not vote for her. Polling also bore this out a while back when we were looking for a candidate. You also forget, Brian, that the religious right had a hand in putting Obama in office. That kind of proves a point there as well.

The Republican Party may cease to exist except in the south. The only candidates they have in the stable are too right-wing for the rest of the country. The demographics are working against them. The party has been taken over by the so called tea partiers ( astro turf as opposed to real grass roots) that are primarily funded by right-wing lobbyists groups like Freedom Works and ALEC(American Legislative Executive Council). If the average southern white male would ever wake up to the fact that Republicans don't really have their interests at heart and are nothing but plutocrats working against their interests than they would lose the south.

Hillary / Julian Castro. Hillary has the experience and the political savvy to do great things. Castro would give Hispanics a strong voice in the White House. The only drawback is Castro's having not held higher office, but that could change between now and then. Personally I'd love to see Senator Sherrod Brown on the ticket.

Some reading for George. I actually read it, so in order to reply, you should be able to quote it in part. You seem to have this obsession about white, male republicans. I'd almost call that racist, but I won't. Just ignorance. Here's some reading that I'm sure you haven't considered. Many articles have been written by blacks regarding the TEA party and what it stands for. They seem to have aproblem with people who paint with a broad brush. But read for yourself.
The ROOT, by the way, is a black publication.
http://www.theroot.com/views/should-black-folks-give-tea-party-second-look

http://articles.latimes.com/2010/aug/04/nation/la-na-tea-party-racism-20100805

http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2011/11/ows-is-racist-more-blacks-supported-tea-party-movement-than-support-occupy-movement/

Some quotes from the lady that wrote the article in the ROOT. She gets it.

"We have debated many times on op-ed pages around the country and on TV as pundits whether it is appropriate for us as black people to criticize the nation's first black president. My position as a journalist and commentator has always been that we should support our nation's presidents when they are correct and question them vigorously when they are not -- regardless of their color or political party affiliation."

A 2009 New York Times op-ed titled ''The Recession's Racial Divide'' by Barbara Ehrenreich and Dedrick Muhammad began by asking the question, ''What do you get when you combine the worst economic downturn since the Depression with the first black president? A surge of white racial resentment, loosely disguised as a populist revolt.'' I think that in part their conclusion about the Tea Party may miss the larger issues of why the Tea Party exists in the first place. This is something black Americans need to consider carefully. To narrow it all down to race is a straw man that we should not buy into.

I agree with this lady and there are many more like her out there.

I would like to see Monica Pearson, now that she has retired, enter the world of politics. I believe she could bring a lot to the table - at least on a local level. I'm not sending her up to the top of the ticket - I hate seeing how women get torn down up there - and that certainly seems to be a bipartisan effort!

If they were still living, my so called "dream team" for the upcoming Presidential election would be George S. Patton, Jr. for President with Vince Lombardi for Vice President.

Mr. Orr, I'll take that! We need a team with testicular fortitude and I think that might fit the bill!! lol

No dice brian. Cynthia is one person. I'll just note that you couldn't respond directly to what I ACTUALLY said, but had to inject something to distract from having to answer to it.

America is done if your" DREAM TEAM" wins! Obama is a commie-muslim! He will not pledge allegence to our flag! He has put us in more debt than any other president ever! No fool like an old fool! George! Every American needs to see the documentory 2016 Obamas America! Obama hates America! He has an agenda! What do you think terms like "shared prosperity" or "Distributed wealth" mean! This is not about DEM or REP! This is about the fall of America! Ask any Cuban about Hope and change! What is it going to take to wake this country up! What experience are you talking about? Steady hand?Are you drinking? Are we better off after four years of this? Obama has had to downplay his agenda this term! Better look out if he gets a second term! The writing is on the wall, blind fools are going to walk right into it! I really hope I am wrong. Everyone needs to do a little research! Who is Obama? Do you really know? Do you enjoy your freedom? Do you want to work to support those who won't! Where are you getting your facts on the "millions of jobs"? Mrs Obama's speach about jobs her husband created was complete fiction! I guess peple see what they want to see! I love America! I hope our future is bright and we remain a super power! God Bless us all!

Jimmy Orr, since you mentioned "if they were still living" into the conversation, I have another thought on the mattr. i'd like to have Reagan again, only AFTER having lived through the last 20 years. What a perspective he would have! Couple that with the wisdom and ability to speak to anyone where they can gain understanding, and wala. Put a modern day Rubio with him, or Condi Rice (of whom he would have loved) and that would be an excellent ticket.

Andrew S, have you ever read any books by Michael Youssef? He has a book that he wrote in 1981, and it is very prophetically erie. He was raised a muslim in a muslim country and says that one of the tenets of muslim takeover is that if you can't take it by sword, take it by deception. He said that in olden days, when they took over a small country they would tax them so high that when they couldn't pay taxes, they would be forced to convert or die. I'm not saying bho is a muslim per se, but he was raised in the area and grew up around that type of thought. Even his mother was radical in thought, so being here wouldn't have made much difference. He also made the comment in his book (Dreams from my father) that he'd like to see us taxed 100%. How can people sleep through this??
I haven't seen the movie yet, but plan to. I'd like to see Runaway Slave as well, but it wasn't financed well enough to go far. The Occupy movie is very revealing.

I wish all Americans would look at the big picture!Tammy do you know the name of the Youssef book? I think you called it right, people are sleeping! Wake up America!!!

I loaned it so someone when I was on the campaign trail this summer. Let me see if I can look it up on google. Back at cha'.

Andrew-
Blindsided (his most recent)
The Greatest Lie
(this is the one I read) America, Oil and the Islamic Mind (helping us understand the differences in the mindsets of westerners and the Islamic nations – how they perceive us)
Revolt against modernity: Muslin Zealots and the West

Unfortunately, Andrew, modern liberals are so brainwashed that even the truth of these things won't help. They think badmouthing something or changing the subject will make it go away. Either that, or we are a bunch of conspiracy theorists (that's akin to being called a racist when they have no answer to the truth). We may wake up to rubble one day. By then it will be too late.

Clinton/Rice 2016!

I'm under the impression that Hillary Clinton is doing a stellar job as Secretary of State. In fact, I'd be thrilled if she'd stay on for President Obama's second term (although John Kerry would be more than able as her replacement). That said, I would not vote for her in the 2016 Democratic primaries for the same reasons that I didn't support her in the 2008 primaries.

On the other hand, I would love to see either Senator Kristen Gillibrand (NY) or Senator Amy Klobuchar (MN) break the glass ceiling to become the first female President of the United States. (I understand that both are testing the waters in Iowa). Better yet, how about a Gillibrand/Klobuchar ticket, or vice versa? Talk about girl power.

If obama wins a second term the Democrats will be DONE for the next 20 yrs so Hillary need not worry about being president Obama ruined it for her and many others, but they allowed him to.

Andrew S and Tammy are absolutely nutty. You two honestly believe the President of the United States, Barack Obama, is a covert muslim whose intention is to overthrow the country by raising taxes in the name of Allah? Really? And "liberals" are too brainwashed to see this happening? Do you honestly believe what you're saying? I have to say it is some of the most creative, illogical, eugenics propaganda I have ever heard. What is it about our president that makes people like you two concoct these bizarre conspiracy theories? It couldn't simply be that he's a Christian Ameircan legally elected to the office of president who has intentions of helping his fellow Americans through means you personally disagree with, could it? No, that's too simple. That's what he wants us to think. A more logical reality is that he's a foreigner whose masterminds planted birth announcements in American newspapers fifty years ago, along with a birth certificate, a childhood spent with an American mother and grandparents, 40+ years of life in America, an Ivy League education and 20+ years of Christian church attendance all in an effort to "destroy" America for his Muslim roots that cosist of a father he met twice. That's more likely. Nothing crazy about that scenario.

I wonder how long it would be before someone did exactly what I said they would. Never said he was a muslim - covert or otherwise. But a genuine muslim says that the current place we find ourselves fits the bill. Just seems like food for thought. I'd hate it (and so would you) if you turned out to be wrong. Not saying it is, but is it possible that it could happen if we are setting the stage for it now?

No, it's not possible.

Herman Cain/Newt Gingrich

my dream team would be a second term for Mitt and Ryan....let's stay focused on the problem at hand....defeating Obama and getting him and the democrats out of washington....more tea party candidates into congress and returning this country to the people who pay taxes and love freedom....

You people need to learn how to answer the poll question. These attacks on peoples opinion does not solve anything and its not productive. Our country is in this state because of both parties!
My dream team would be first, dissolve party names and lines. Let us vote on the best person, not party. For as names we are the people of the United States! This country needs prayer! The cost of freedom or greed is the the base line of politics!

I so agree with you there Evelyn. The strength of both the Democratic and Republican Party has now totally stripped away our ability to look at the man or woman instead of the Party. Once you like just one issue with a candidate and begin to do research, you get sucked into all the propaganda and can no longer see anything outside of the Party. And each party goes to so much trouble to destroy the opposition.

You asked for a dream team.... so flaming me will be futile.
Condi Rice and Donald Rumsfeld

NJ4, why should we have a problem with what Brian wrote? He said nothing more alarming than you or Tammy's or Andrew's or JoAnn's nonsense about end of times, waking up to rubble, illuminati conspiracy theories (Though Tammy did try to play the victim by equating someone questioning her fear mongering to being labeled a racist. Nice touch, Tammy. That's a very creative way to further insulate yourself from the objections sane people might voice. Well done.)

Wow, People, the question asked for your Dream Team
Dreams are created from Imagination
How can anybody's Imagination be right or wrong.
Too much bickering... too little thinking outside the box.

Brian says "two men who have sex with each other getting married"

@NJ4America: Shouldn't you be out muddin' or huntin'? Wouldn't you be happier at a NASCAR race than you are blogging? Gee, your spelling seems ok, maybe your mind wants to become an intellectual; its just those narrow minded blinders that just keep holding you back.

This never occurred to me but I don't think there's anything in the rules to prevent Bill running as VP. How about Clinton/Clinton 2016!

I choose Brian Crawford and George Wilson in 2016.

George will take the place of Biden of course. He says the damndest things. Biden I mean.

RE: "It is just sad to see that so many people, once they convert to one side or the other, can't see anything good in the other side. We are all supposed to be Americans first, but right now and it appears that we are all a Party first."

With all due respect, Sharon, you're doing it again. I know that you don't intend to be mean-spirited, but it is also insulting to generalize that we were all "converted."

In addition, by arguing for policies to combat climate change, many of us believe that we are putting America first. By fighting to protect Medicare, Social Security, and Medicaid benefits, many of us believe that we are putting America first. When advocating that we should bring our troops home from Afghanistan sooner rather than later, or to give sanctions a chance to work in Iran, many of us believe that we are putting America first.

I was never "converted to one side." I don't form opinions because it is a "D" position or "R" position. I educate myself, and support and vote for those who agree with me. There are millions who do the same.

Such "Party first" generalizations falsely imply that everybody is always wrong, nobody is ever right, or that the answer is always somewhere in between. Party A says the earth is flat. Party B says the earth is round. Why can't both parties stop arguing about it and put America first? I beg you: Enough with the false equivalencies.

My Democratic ticket for 2016 is Deval Patrick and Governor Mike Beebe of Arkansas.

Sharon, I agree with you. Wouldn't it be nice to hear two people give their platform and people choose based on who is more qualified for the job? We started out with America ideals. That's what I was writing about in "We're only asking for self-government". In a historic election, that one woman GOT IT.The question is, how do we get back to that?
I think that went the wayside when the Newsroom quit giving us the news and began giving us opinions, people got too busy to question whether somethingwas right and began trusting in outward appearance rather than inward qualities to judge someone.

Reasons why people lean toward one party or the other:

Pro-choice or you believe abortion is baby killing.

Pro-environment or you're for letting the corporations ruin it as long as they provide jobs.

Pro-government if it helps the poor or anti-government because it runs up debt.

Pro-corporation or pro-regulation of corporations.

Pro-education or pro-war - or both and then we have severe debts...

Pro-war or pro-peace.

Pro-religion in schools or leave it at home or in churches=pro-tolerance.

Don't care if your candidate sexually harasses women or Do care if your candidate sexually harasses women.

Im with NJ on this one. It's not that cut and dried. I weight a lot of factors. A lot of them. Many times people have to make concessions for the whole of the decision. Anybody can say they are pro- life but are they saying it for political reasons, or do they really believe it? A big picture (personal life, how long ago any discretions happened and did they turn it around, theri voting record etc...) reveals a lot.

@NJ4America: Well, simplification does work best for many....I mean, it's kind of a no brainer for me when you start talking about taking away the public's right to an abortion. Does it make me terribly sad that people want abortions? Does it gross me out? Do I think the baby vacuum is bad for women and children? Sure, sure, and sure. But when I see people suffering in ignorance and poverty, I certainly don't want to force to drag others down with them. Every child should be a wanted child. The pro-regulation of corporation is kind of a no brainer for me as well. Corporations are out to make a profit, pure and simple. That is their objective. Therefore, they are not concerned with harming the environment, hurting local businesses, driving down wages, or taking care of workers for the long haul. They are not concerned with children, the unemployed, the disabled, veterans affected by PTSD, or those who are undereducated. Therefore, I do not want their weight to disproportionately affect my legislators. Pro-war after 9/11? I think even the least scholarly will agree that it was downright irresponsible and a cover to declare war on Iraq. Al queda wasn't even in Iraq - and I don't have to be a historian to get that. So for all of the nuts screaming about Obama and the terrorist Muslims and Obama's "apology for America," get it straight. You're dam* right the world needed to see our humility after "W" made us look like animalistic barbarians.

Batman and Mr Whipple (Please don't squeeze the Charmin)

I'm having a difficult time actually picking people that I'd like to see as President, no matter what party they come from. Heck, I still haven't decided who I want to vote for in this election.

But I think that I could handle a Presidential ticket that was Colin Powell/Hillary Clinton.

And Athens Baby Mama wins with the last word and for holding back tears when listening to a pub tune about drinking. Let's give a round of applause ladies and gentlemen to the finest educator than your money may very well pay for twice if she gets her way with Charter schools. Now that, takes ignorance.
Thank you, Good Night, Drive Safely.

Athens Mama & Brian, I have been sick this past week. I have not been reading this stream. While picking up meds at Walmart, the editor alerted me to this stream. I have just read all your words & never before have I read such foul ideas, meanness, & just plain trashing others. Your logic is questionable & your hate is evident. Your need to verbally abuse others begs the question as to WHY you feel the need to abuse. This is a venue for ideas not abuse. This is a place to exchange ideas not a place to hatefully attack those who have different views. This is a place of free speech not a place to attack those whom speak up. Reread your post. When you choose to hate, others choose to ignore you. As for our future with Obama, I have met some in my life that have the ability to see the future clearer other than others. I believe it is because they are readers of history, they study the past, they can see when the past repeating itself. Yet, when some bring up an aspect of the future, that they have seen in the past, many call it foolishness. To know the past is to not repeat it. To ignore the past is to repeat the past. I have a muslim friend. He will tell you that it is absolutely the truth that "deception" is a justifiable tool in the Muslim religion. Unlike,"Thy Shall Not Lie" in the Christian faith, lying is justifiable if you are Muslim. You are just talking puppets, who is the puppet master? Be sure to read my upcoming blog entitled,"Our Allies Can't Trust Us..

Welcome back!

Cynthia
I really hope you can come up with some sort of attribution to your ridiculous statement that "deception is a justifiable tool in the Muslim religion". If you cant' please explain how your statement is anything more than religious ignorance or bigotry.

If anyone were to tell me what your alleged "Muslim friend" allegedly told you I'd assume they were an idiot and not repeat it.

Michael, Sorry sir but I stick to my post. No religious ignorance or bigotry in my heart, I was just as shocked as you are. We were taking about 911. He said the people that did it have no remorse for their actions. I asked how can they not be sorry for killing so may innocent lives? He said that radicals & some Muslims believe that all is fair game in their effort to bring Islam to the entire world. You can refute it but he is Muslim, I speak with him and I believe him. Are you Muslim? If you are you need to check your religion's Koran. He hated Bush & loved Obama! He believes we should be sending more money to the Muslims. The funniest or saddest thing he had ever said was that we should be buying everyone in his homeland a house! I still don't understand why why he thinks our country owes everyone a house! He hated Bush because Bush would not go over and try to effect a "peace accord"! I told him, "Why should every one of our presidents go over to try to "make Peace?" It only cost us more money. Each country expects $ to sign! It is money we don't have. It is foolish for America to play and by that I mean PAY to be a referee for the Middle East. He wanted Bush to go over and give some more money to his party. I said we have done that since Carter was in office and they are still at war so why waste the time or money! As you can see, they love to have America in bed with them for our money! Radical Muslims use violence to get their way. Sorry MK -Truth sir!

Mr B, Other than,"@ That is such a dark twisted version of reality. Commie-Muslim? Where do you people come up with this stuff? Actually I know the answer to that: the dense jungle of Limbaugh/Brietbart/WND/American Thinker/Drudge/FOX/WSJ dis-information that permeates your every waking moment" Whew! I guess you have been quite a perfect gentleman in my absence, I must bring out the bad boy in you!

Well Cynthia, if you want to know about about what someone believes - you ask them? makes sense to me. We have enemies and if they say they want to do something, then they probably will. You (and I) simply stated what we were told. No personal judgements (although those that accuse you of it do it so much that they can't see their ownselves in the mirror). If I said that Baptists believe in baptism by immersion and Methodists believe in sprinkling, does that mean I'm bad-mouthing them? According to CJ's logic. People are so politically correct that they fumble with the truth. We have enemies abroad and need to be viligent at all times. Our enemies know us. We should understand them in order to deal with them properly and protect our homeland. Iran wants to get a hold of nukes. We won't be having this conversation if we do nothing.

Cynthia- to be continued...Here are some quotes:
"A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within.” -- Ariel Durant
“We had patience in our fighting with the Soviet Union with simple weapons for 10 years. We exhausted their economy, so they disappeared. We will not abandon our fight until the weapons run out." Osama Bin Laden

Excerpt from Letter to the US from Osama Bin Laden:
The first thing that we are calling you to is Islam...If the Americans do not respond, then their fate will be that of the Soviets who fled from Afghanistan to deal with their military defeat, political breakup, ideological downfall, and economic bankruptcy.
Acquiring weapons for the defense of Muslims is a religious duty. If I have indeed acquired these weapons, then I thank God for enabling me to do so. And if I seek to acquire these weapons, I am carrying out a duty. It would be a sin for Muslims not to try to possess the weapons that would prevent the infidels from inflicting harm on Muslims.

Tammy & R, It is very sad that many just open their mouths ( ie begin typing) without the gift of past history or current information. They will jump around with both feet screaming, "Liar, dark twisted version of reality, ridiculous statement, do you have no shame," when faced with the reality of Islam. I am sorry if you do not believe what I wrote but it is reality in the Muslim world. I guess you have to be "friends" before you are considered trust worthy enough to be told the truth about their religion. CJ, you are correct, they are wonderful family friends. They take care of their children, are very hard working, have high expectations, & are respectful to each other. But make no mistake they are the second largest religion & will not rest until their have taken over the number one position as their faith teaches. Look at the cities with the highest concentration of Muslims & check the facts about how healthy that city is. Poverty is a powerful conversion tool. To just say "it is not true" is to stick you head in the sand. Deception IS an acceptable tool. It is what it is. Sorry to awaken the minds to all the newbies to this faith. One more thing, I was shocked when he said, "We have been fighting for hundreds of years, so planning an attack for 10 years from now is like the blink of an eye to us! America will tire, we will not!" Here we are 11 years later under attack again. I don't like it any better than any other person but I will not close my eyes.

I just want to point out that Catholics absolutely think that molesting children is allowed in their religion because I read online that one time a priest told a child he was raping that 'This Is What God’s Love Feels Like'.

http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/Catholic-Churtch-Los-Angeles-Archdiocese-Priests-Accused-Pedophile-Molest-Children-139129294.html

You see because one member of the religion said it, it applies to the entire faith. I am sorry if you do not believe what I wrote but it is reality in the Catholic world. Sorry to awaken the minds to all the newbies to this faith. No religious ignorance or bigotry in my heart, I was just as shocked as you are

Michael k - I suspect you are not a member of the Magisterium. Your comment is crude, false, and absolutely not a reality in the Catholic world and not a reality any of the worlds faith communities accepts - most especially the Catholic Church.

What's wrong Brett? Denigrating Muslims is acceptable but not Catholics?

Why the double standard?

Do you not represent Muslim constituents as well? Is their faith not worthy of your defense? Or do you believe they are all deceitful followers of a religion looking to take over the world?

Hilary Clinton/Julián Castro - 2016!

I do not know one Catholic that is not angered and sadden by news of the molestation of a child, whether the news came from the Vatican, the coaches at Penn State, the southern baptist church leader Eddie Long, the American Boy Scout Organization or the man down the street! I am always amazed that when a conservation is not going someones way they drop a fire ball topic in since they have not answer to the last post! Michael K!?! Wrong is wrong where ever it rears it sick ugly head. Sick people do sick things. It is everyone's duty to stop wrong where ever it is, not just in a church setting. The boy scouts have said NO to gay leaders, especially in light of the sexual abuse they have been dealing with. Why would you want to join an organization that stands against your own way of life. Why not just start an organization called the Gay Scouts of America? My vote for the next election can not be determined until I see where our country is at that time. Personalities are great but I want a person qualified to do the job. obama has a shinning personality, a wonderful speaking talent, yet he has no hands on ability to lead this country through our current and upcoming problems & he is lying with statistics every day. He is a failure. Romney is a man with years of success behind him, so what if he does not "connect with the voter" as the left cries out, the voters will connect with his ability to lead our country back to success and back to world leaders once again!

I'm going to ask once more that we get back on topic. This thread is not for attacking other religions, other sexual orientations, etc. It's for discussing your ideas for a 2016 presidential dream team. We can have some political debate on that, of course, but how about keeping it civil?

Pelosi / Frank 2016?

Bill O'Reilly/Megyn Kelly

Brian Crawford/Cynthia Montgomery 2016!

The Patch Dream Team!

"If nominated I will not run,...... If elected I will not serve....now I finally understand the reasoning behind this comment, even if I can not serve up the original speaker. But then again maybe with both of us being at opposite ends of the spectrum maybe work would be accomplished due to the sheer desire of each of our beliefs in our own political agendas. However, I believe it would be the Montgomery-Crawford ticket! LOL Now that ough'ta get Brian back to the keyboard!!! I am off to art class for the most peaceful 3 hours of my week! P.S. Why does the Patch always have obama ads on this site?

Karsten - OMG! So did I! he's got to be joking -even for him!
Last side line - just want to tell this to Cynthia, especially since there won't be anyone refuting my facts. My son was in Iraq and fell in love with the Iraqi people.The communities of families love the west, but those in power DON'T. Why do you think the wonderful muslim people want to live here? Because they KNOW what the radicals believe and KNOW that they will carry it out, evidenced by the slaughtering of their own people. They KNOW. My son met and talked to them. They thanked my son for our government for liberating them. One woman, introduced her two sons to my son and said, "Thanks to your government, my sons will not grow up under a dictator". That balances it out for me.
@ Kristi - I think it's only fair that ladies be first (first female prez)Mongomery/Crawford. lol

Actually, I love Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams. Either could run and I'd trust them to find a good running mate.

I really don't know. There's not really a politician out there I like. They all seem to run for the wrong reasons. I like Newt, just because he does what he feels like he needs to and isn't beholden to any group, especially, it seems, the RNC. Herman Cain could also fix some problems, I think, and I'd like to think he would put the reins to corporatism, but given his background and his thoughts regarding the Fed, I'm really not so sure....

Ron Paul/Ross Perot or Ross Perot/Ron Paul

Tammy, Sounds like OBL forgot one thing that the American people, left or right, Bush or obama, we will not forget the innocent killing of those on 911. Let it go forth from this land, to all other lands that wish harm upon the United States of America, that we will with every once of body and strength, fight until the last ounce of our fortitude until those whom wish to harm our great land and our free people are no longer. Wondering what his last thoughts were.........hey, about that Americans being called to become Islam...yeah, that was not what I really meant. can't we all just get along?
Don't mess with the USA unless you can fight the fight. Our military never stopped looking. Our military never forgot. Our military kept the hunt alive. Our military got the job done 10 years later. So much for the greatest military in the world giving up while you continue. RIght may not win every battle but right will be there at the end time. The Constitution requires our government to preserve, protect, and defend the constitution and the citizens of this great country. There was never ANY mention that we pay for solar power projects or for people that won't take care of their own family members. I have a feeling Tammy, that those who are giving the most grief do not even have friends of the Muslim faith or have ever spoken to an American Muslin. Kristi, thank you for correcting those yard signs and bumper stickers before the go to print! LOL.

Cynthia, because patch is affiliated with Huffington Post. That's why. Sharon, correct me if I'm wrong?

Tammy, it actually doesn't have anything to do with any affiliation with Huffington Post. It's because the Obama camp purchased advertising space, and obviously a lot of it, on Patch. We have all asked, and been told, that the Romney camp has been approached but, as yet anyway, has not purchased any. Our editorial we try and keep as balanced as we can but unfortunately we have no control over who purchases advertising.

Agreed Cynthia. And you notice when I give actualy facts and quotes the crickets are loud. I gave George some reading material, and he hasn't responded.

David E, solid point. But as you know we baled out the banks so it (in obama's favorite phrase) it would not be worse! By vote now how many when having to take off the band aid from from giving blood, takes 3 years to take it off for fear to hurting your own arm and how many YANK it off and deal with it. We will continue to "hurt" as long as obama continues to give fed printed, non backed, China bought, money to banks and 'solar' companies to save our economy! GM would have figured it out. The banks would have come back. The American spirit would have raised us up once again but NO we needed our leaders to give billions to their contributors and to failing companies. How many times can you keep bailing failures out? Answer - Until they are allowed to fail and learn not to make the same mistake twice! Correct me if I am wrong but, is the PATCH a liberal or conservative entity?

AM-apparently the quote was from Mr. Obama Sr.
...there is nothing that can stop the government from taxing 100% of income,” Mr. Obama wrote, “so long as the people get benefits from the government commensurate with their income which is taxed.” In the view of Barack Hussein Obama Sr., the right of the individual person to freely work, earn, and invest, meant nothing. All that mattered was the “collective good” of the nation.
My thoughts: Many believe that given the policies of Jr. that they are similar to his father.
I do wonder though, what the extra unnecessary comments were about? ;)

Well well well, it only took two days before the grammar police appeared. For many of you that follow the Dacula Patch you know I always put a grammer or spelling mistake in for the grammar police! The police always show up when they can not bring themselves to answer bold comments so they just say.. Hey now somebody misspelled "bailed." How about the comment from Tammy about taxing 100% of their income? How about an answer to billions given to obama's contributor who ran the solar company that took the $ &just went belly up? How about the banks being bailed out only to reward their stealing staff with the largest bonuses ever! Why don't the liberals offer up their reason why their obama decided to behave in this manner? Why, of course it is easier to say, " HEY, LOOK, SHE SPELLED BAILED wrong!! Got Ya! It is just too easy. People write on the Patch while running out the door, fixing dinner, watching TV, or talking on the phone! So what if they mistype a letter of quickly spell wrong. In Dacula we value content over spelling! Sorry but can anyone tell me where SUPER STAR obama was today when over 65 world leaders were meeting at the UN? Wait for it...wait for it...... wait for it....YEP! that's right, he taping THE VIEW! Come on people, the Middle East is on fire, the nukes are almost here, and SUPER STAR ODUMA is taping a talk show. What is wrong with this world? I doubt other world leaders are doing The View! Now you know why the world is laughing at us! SO SAD!

I'd like to take a moment and commend State Representative Brett Harrell for his courageous and principled stand earlier today when he came out against considering all Catholics to be proponents of child molestation.

I think he really went out on a limb and his constituents can be proud that he was willing to take such a controversial position.

Cynthia - people that feed on his every word of the earthly messiah who can do no wrong are the truest example of sheep that I've ever seen. The Lord used sheep as an example in the hard lessons of the parables, not because they were sweet and cute, but becasue they were the dumbest animal alive.
Oh and btw...NJ4america...if you really want to be the spelling police, maybe you should learn how to spell y'all. It's short for you all. Thus, Y'all. Just sayin' :)))
You got that right Cynthia- I write these things while curling my hair at the computer. And heaven help me after I get my nails done! lolol

Answer Cynthia: they have no answer to the truth. The only answers they can come up with is if it has to do with "opinion" stated as fact.
I used to work in discipline in the public school and had an isolation room. I had posters on my wall, and wanted some that applied to behavior. I found a great one, but it also applies to liberal logic(to a tee):
FACTS DO NOT CEASE TO EXIST BECAUSE THEY ARE IGNORED. lolol

Ah, Miss Tammy, teacher and disciplinarian, no wonder we get along so well. Please read, "Our Enemies Do Fear Us and Our Allies Don't Trust Us - Obama Blames Again" on the Dacula Patch, just put in Cynthia Montgomery and it will come up. I look forward to your comment. Now on to Michael K comments. We all know if you want to get elected in local politics, you must do 3 things; 1-Show Up, 2 Speak to Everyone, 3. Say Nothing. We know that if you choose to say anything you will tick off a potential voter. I do not know State Rep Brett Harrell but, I admired him for speaking up to a "hit and run" vulgar blogger. He showed up and spoke up. I admire that in a man and in a candidate. I look forward to hearing him speak at his next election debate. We need more elected officials that stand for truth and values and not ones that choose to appear on THE VIEW instead of doing our bidding at the United Nations. Now you know why the world laughs at the US president and will attack us at will. Between Vegas and the View Obama has set his sight on the lofty ideals of the country. Liberals PLEASE explain what is going on in your leader's mind to those of us that are worried about, well let's see...the economy, unemployment, gas prices, Libya attack, the death of a US citizen abroad, and your foreign policy. Contrary to your & Michelle's belief, I do not care to have my President all over the boob tube begging for votes instead of running our country. Help me our liberals!

Obama/Biden in a surprise third term supported by a Democratic Congress and a left-leaning Supreme Court.

Hey, I dream big.

Chris, poor angry Chris, I have noticed a few things about liberals as I have written over the years. One major trait is that if they have no answer they tend to; name call, abuse other writers, become grammar cops, bully new commentators, & are just plain mean. They tend to rear their ugly head when they have no answer for facts or strong writers. It is sad but, it is true. Don't believe me, reread this stream & you will see what I mean. Sorry to say, YOU make my point with your very comment. As for cleaning my house, I pay someone for that pleasure. How can I do that? I worked hard & made good investments. I can afford to offer another a job, I am a repub! As for the cooking part, my husband does breakfast except on the weekends. We have lunch out each day to break from the intensity of our day. For dinner it is mostly my show! If it is a Georgia Bulldog afternoon then it is my Dad's "Damn Good Chili" over rice, or hot dogs, or with Scoops! I encourage you liberals to answer for your president . Why did 56 other world leaders came to the UN to solve world issues & your boob tube prezident went on THE VIEW begging for votes! Desperate!?! Uh YEAH! Come on, the middle east is on fire, the nukes are almost on line, and oduma is in the makeup chair. Please.. some liberal brain tell me what his deal is? I don't know about your computer but my computer puts a red line under a grammar or spelling error. Now to choose the words to goof on! Today find 3!

Thanks RL, I am still waiting for the left to explain why the BOOB TUBE PREZ is shunning his job in favor of becoming a Super Star! If you are part of the 20% that has not made up your mind, please consider who you want for a leader, someone who will respect the office or someone who will sit in the makeup chair while 56 other world leaders are sitting in an UN chair searching for common ground. Liberals speak up please!

Jeff, We all know Biden is the BRAINS of the Democratic party! LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL I just kill myself!!!

Well, considering that Romney hasn't been ahead since 2011, I like Obama's chances.

I am quite aware of the poll numbers. Graduating from the 3rd best journalism school in the country, I was schooled in the way of polls. I believe in polls. I don't believe you should govern by them though. I will not eat humble pie, I will just be sick at my stomach if he does win. Electorally, I am worried as well. Our country is divided as never before. BC, Obama has not one meeting with any of the world leaders and indeed the Boob Tube, Super Star, Prezzi was on The View. Please listen to the president of Iran today and notice how he says the world power has shifted. While the man is considered mad by many, he makes a valid point. I hold the media more responsible for the view of Obama more than Obama himself. His record is poor and he continues to bIame anyone and anything for his own failures.

Yet, I hold the financial inept American people responsible for Obama's clear lead. For example, many now get their news from the comedy talk shows and believe they are real. The 10 time Emmy winning show hosted by John commented yesterday and I thought FINALLY a balanced report as he ragged on Obama for not meeting with any leaders while they were all gathered at the UN. Next, when the host showed a clip of Obams's press secretary stating, "His schedule is very busy and he does not have the time." It has been 20 years since a seated president has done this. "No time" John continued, " What could possibly be more important that meeting with world leaders with; the middle east on fire, nukes so close, Greece failing and so on" Cut to a clip of Obama carrying a basket to the ladies on The View!" Finally the left is also worried about where Obama choices! NOT! John next plays a clip of Romney saying the economy will have a surge if he is elected and John goes off making fun of the comment! Any fool knows that indeed the economy will bump because the 43% of Romney supporters, mostly business owners are holding back because of the anti business climate as there is too much unknown with Obama. To any educated financial person the comment made sense & was an honest account of what will happen, yet John makes fun, waving his arms stating voodoo economics. Sad things is if you don't know economics you believe John's comments. BC, Meetings vs speaking, it is sad, so sad!

Cynthia, Reagan was behind in the polls at this point too and he won by a landslide. I agree with Dick Morris. The real Independent voters wait until the last minute. I think if liberals would admit it, they know that he is simply in campaign mode. "Well, he finally did at 10 this morning!" Well, maybe he did, but he doesn't seem to sit and somberly think on these issues. They are a last minute thing for him. he's worth millions; I just wish he'd realize tht we pay his salary and expect him to work.
OUr Founding Fathers were appalled at being highly taxed- thus, the BostonTEA party. We need to listen to the people who are trying to warn us before it's too late. But then again, people under communism etc... didn't even know it. They didn't wake up one day and there it was...they believed one slick lie after another and put enough agreement to it until it was implemented. The best liars are the ones that look good and sound good, but are evil and self centered in intent because there comes a point where they believe their own lies.

Dr. William H. Cosby and General Colin Powell

Grant, Are you aware that Obama was highly affected by his father even though he did not see him much after the age of 10 years old. What type of parent drops out of his son's life at the age of ten, forget his father, check out his mother's departure from his life. These two scarred him for life and that is why I believe our Boob Tube Wanta Be Movie Star Prez if for ever seeking acceptance from the public! He is forever going on the TV to get his does of, " I'm OK - Your OK" medicine. DO you know obama wrote a book that spoke about his father? Do you realize that his father had a major impact on his political views and beliefs. Are you aware that you are speaking falsely about this topic. Are you sure you wish to continue to say things that most know are foolish. Please read this book before you continue to offer false facts to the Patch readers. However, I believe it was his preacher that had the biggest impact on his belief system. You remember his preacher, the one that said, God Bless America? NO, GOD Damn America. He sat in his pews for years and absorbed in the preacher's racist hate and vulgar views of white Americas. if you don't want to hear the truth, please don't post a lie.

Well chosen words Jeff. The Ralph Reed clan lives in anger and uses it to mangle any sense of patriotism into nightmare. What justification can there be to pretend to know the President's father was satan? Ugly.

Grant, you are all over the map here. So what is your point again? To address one thing specifically, Obama has been clear about his attendance at the church of Jeremiah "DO" Wright for a number of years, Wright also married the Obamas and Wright also Baptized the Obama children. Are you so gullible to believe that Obama needed some radical right wing nut bag to scrape up scum on Obama and Wright to inform Obama the beliefs of his minister after 20 years? I believe that YOU may believe it but it's highly unlikely that Obama missed these small details as he is the smartest president we have ever been blessed with.

Why would wingbats focus on the President's father? Why not his mother. A fabulous, hard working, Christian woman isn't important? You do realize, Reed clan, that no one chooses their parents? Wait, that wasn't a serious question, but now I realize you probably didn't have that information. And right there for all to read, a personal attack on man and his business. Pathetic. Ugly. Unamerican.

On the other hand, Mr Martell's post about the accuracy of polls lacks that hatred and is pretty much correct about how polls are formed. It would be nice if he put up the source of his data, and similar data about, say, the Rasmussen poll. The Faux News polls have the same weaknesses and probably weighted in the same way only for Romney. Today I'm relying on the data from a special sample: Ann Coulter, Republican transgender pundit; if Christie doesn't get in the race, Romney will win the nomination and we will lose the election. Or Bill Kristol, who this Sunday acknowledged that the President has done a good job on the economy.

Jeff & Grant, You bring up a subject. We refute your comments as poppy cock. You come back & say the man was not affected by the father or the preacher. Ask any black man that has no father or only saw him once, if he has issues? Do you know what it is like to grow up without a father? Read a book about abandonment issues, then get back to me. About his mother, well all I can say is she made the decision to abandon his as well & went about her "Wonderful" life. Can't see Michelle doing that. Educated black & white men & women take a different view on how & who will raise their children.Help me please, what was so important that miss willy nilly went off & left her child? Once again it is all about name calling when we present widely held facts. I clearly do not understand why a person can not dislike a person for their actions or their political beliefs without BAMB "libbies" calling it hate. Sorry, skin color is not a factor for me! Plus or negative! I did not like Carter's presidency & nobody says I HATE him. I did not like Kennedy & Clinton for being hound dogs & nobody said I hated them. What is it with you "libbies" that if someone does not hold your same views, you label them a "hater?" To believe that a man's ideas are developed in a vacuum is again poppycock! His parents, preacher, professors, friends, family & even his wife do indeed have an affect on his views. Grant, you must be touchy about his past relationships to be so upset with the comment. So sad!

I don't care about any of his past, only the country's future. He is doing his best, but its not good enough. The same things he bashed Bush for, he is doing and doing it worse. He refuses to claim responsibility for is (in)action. But, no internet post is going to change anyone's political ideals. I've got one vote. I will use it wisely.

There is a point to be made about Obama and Bush and the mistakes they share. You didn't make them. By putting Obama equal to Bush, you ruin your own point. For instance, the Obama justice department seems no less corrupt or misguided than Bush's. HLS, CIA, and Justice Dept. need serious oversight and reform. But there is no way Romney is going to do anything. The lack of prosecution of hedge fund owners and Wall Street criminals is in itself, probably criminal, but again, Bush did nothing to stop the damage, weakened regulations, and there is no way Romney will do anything but relax regulations more. Beyond those areas, I don't see it as close. Bush= Romney (who a man in his own campaign calls, "the Etch-O-Scetch candidate: I wish I had made that up) We have a two party democracy. Judged in a vacuum, Democrats and liberals have lots of flaws and failures, but when compared to Conservatives and Republicans, there isn't any contest; wars, recessions, failures at home and abroad are the Republican legacy.
No, thank you Mr. Smith.

Cynthia and I have one thing in common - we both get very passionate about the issues which are very close to our hearts. I think the hating part encompasses Cynthia's comments regarding the Muslim religion. I think that is something to look at again.

How can the left NOT SEE what the rest of the world sees about Obama's lack of leadership. The only people in the world that like Obama's decisions are the war mongers and radical Islam! The world is laughing at Obama and he is at another all important meeting with the ladies on the VIew! He is a ego maniac and his wife spends the citizens money because she is finally proud of America. More money has been spend on this presidential family than any other in history and his sheep just keep saying Bah Bah Bah. I often wondered how the German citizens allowed their country to become the most hated people in the world and know I know. BLind allegiance to a fool. They don't want to the job of the White House they want the 'Coolness" that goes with the job' meeting with JayZ and Beyonce, appearing on the boob tube weekly, traveling every weekend as out expense and so on. Yet when it come to attending Security meetings NO THANKS I am expected to be on the view. I know the military has had it with this moocher, BOOB TUBE, "Let the eat cake!" traveling and golfing PRESIDENT!

Grant, I suggest you google "abandonment issues" and then get back to me. I did not do homework for others while in school and will not do it now. Your guy has show his lack of ability to lead and his decision to be a BOOB TUBE president instead of a world leader is just the last straw that American's have had to put up with as the world shakes it head about BOOB TUBE OBAMA! Over heard at the UN, "Well how can we get a personal meeting with the leader of the free world?" Simply get booked on the view and talk to him in the greenroom! Sad, so sad. Oh an when you learn about how those with abandonment issues behave then get back to me! Boob Tube Prez is all we have after 4 years of his foolishness, Sad, so sad. Vote for change we can be proud of not a president that is more worried about his bookings on the BOOB TUBE than our future!

My youth know why Obama should be disrespected. He is a disgrace to the office of the President. You earn respect, you don't dictate it. Making promises you have not the ability nor intention of keeping are called lies.
You shouldn't underestimate today's youth. Many children are in tune more than adults and fear their future, as it has been screwed over by politicians including Obama.

Respect? Ugh!

Wow. That's a persuasive argument. I was particularly moved by all the facts you used to support your end of days language.

I always get a laugh out of you guys when you have to delete and re-post. Weak minds I suppose. After all, you voted for Obama and look where we are.

You want to know how it'll be when we elect Obama for a Second term? Okay, I'll tell you. I expect him to Admit he's Muslim right after the election, denounce Christ thus Christmas, and forfeit our sovereignty to Iran on New Year's Eve. We will become a Muslim nation by 2013. But we will also be so indebted to China that a compromise must be agreed to between Iran and China. The agreement will result in the U.S. Being under sharia law, but the national language will be Mandarin. Hopefully, by 2015 we will be a Mandarin speaking, socialist, Muslim nation. Then, during his last six months or so in 2016, The Ayatollah's health will mysteriously deteriorate, and Obama will replace him as the leader of the Muslim world and our new Mandarin speaking portion of it. That's our plan, Mr. Global Warming. I get teary-eyed writing about it. Obama 2012!

I must listen to God when it comes to respecting President Obama. God's word tells me to respect President Obama and to pray for him. The Bible even says that God puts our President in office, including George W. Bush and Barack Obama. I'll stand on Romans 13: 1-2; 1 Timothy 2:1-3; Titus 3: 1-2; and 1 Peter 2: 13-17. Keep in mind that when Paul wrote Romans 13, the nefarious Nero was in office.

My point is made once again by the sheep of the Boob Tube Prez, as the grammar cops arrive! Come on "Libbles" were you not just a tiny bit embarrassed when your Boob Tube Prez showed up on The View instead of meeting with world leaders? Yep, that is right your "leader" is making the TV circuit instead of the meeting with world leaders. OMG! (Obama Must Go!) And as for my mentoring young women to have respect for our government, I will tell you just how I do it. I spend thousands of my own dollars & hundreds of my personal hours to encourage young women to become their best. I then take them to events that will show them what politics is really all about. Let me ask you Mr Brown or Mr Long, how may times have you visited the capitol this year? How many years have you given to support veterans by appearing in the Dacula Memorial Day Parade for 7 years? Did you taken your children to the Georgia Museum to had a frank discussion about the history of voting for women & blacks? How did you honor 911? How many times have you told your children to learn facts about their governor so they can ask an intelligent question when they met with him? How may candidates for our county government have your children met or held in place until their were to go on stage for a debate they hosted? How many letters have you written to our service men & women? How many baby showers have you held for a PG wife of a solider at war? I teach real life government & they figure out the rest! OMG!

Mr Roger, I see I have hit a personal nerve with you. Education is a wonderful thing, if you take advantage of it. For one, it will encourage you to think for yourself & to encourage others to do the same. I spent my last 3 years at the University of Georgia on the Dean's List. YEAH ME! I graduated in 4 years. YEAH ME! I got a job in my field after graduation. YEAH ME! I worked & advanced in my field until I left to began my family. YEAH ME! More importantly, than my college education, is that my 3 children graduated college & have jobs & pay taxes! REALLY, YEAH ME! Yes, we are part of the few that are paying for the many. Even more importantly is that they ALL VOTE! As for God putting Obama in office, many of the old people believe that is true. They say this is the president( Number 44) that is foretold in Revelations to be the downfall of the west. I used to shake my head when they would tell me that but, now I wonder. We all have free will. God allows the Earthlings to control their lives. He watches & I am sure he is amused that we Americans have put a BOOB TUBE Wanna Be in the White House. I am sure He was proud when this country was founded on religious freedom. He must be sad that now we are trying to remove Him from every building, hall, school, & court room in this once bold country. I do wish the Lefties would just tell us how they justify their first vote for him? Why be foolish twice? There are 3 grammer mistakes for the grammar cops. Ready, Set,Go!

I like this one... "How many years have you given to support veterans by appearing in the Dacula Memorial Day Parade for 7 years? Um... 7 years? No, wait a minute

Hey Guys, the RACE card was been taken out of the deck for 4 years ago. Libbies now have a new "code" word. The new "code" word to use on anyone that DARE to stand up & speak against their King Obuma is now quickly deemed a HATER! OMG LOL LOL LOL! Do you really think anyone fears being called a HATER? Oh No, they have labeled me a HATER! Oh No, now I must sell my house & leave the country because a "Libbie" has called me a HATER! Never mind the fact that they still will not comment on their BOOB TUBE Prez's preferring the loving audience of THE VIEW to the real worries of our country. Never mind he decided to spend the day with 3 of the most manly, obnoxious, & self serving women on television instead of meeting with world leaders. No one on one meetings for our smiling BOOB TUBE, STAR WANA BE Prez. I gladly wear the title HATER. I prefer it to sheep. I prefer it to "libbie." I prefer it to, "she who votes for Obama a second time!" I really prefer it to anything else as long as it is in reference to my not being blinded by a blaming, Hollywood wanabe, 44th man in the White House. YES, I am a hater of poor leadership. I am a hater of bad political decisions. Yes, I am a hater of higher taxes. I am a hater of a president that incites class hate. I am a hater of robbing SS & a hater of lazy leader. I am a hater of the Obama,"Let them eat Cake" mentality. OMG! I am a hater of a man that knew it was a terrorist attack & said it was about a movie! Obama, so much to hate!

I just love yanking the liberal's chains! They are so easy! LOL Problem is they never have any comments on Obama only on grammer (grammar LOL). If they call you a hater and you won't go away, then they are at odds as to what to do with you. I just keep them happy by being grammer (grammar) cops! It really is too much fun. Well, I can not laugh any more tonight as it is getting late. But really men, will not one of you tell me how you felt when you saw your bold BOOB TUBE Prez nixing the UN in favor of the easy questioning from THE VIEW? How did this go down. "Mr President, you have the UN thing this month, whom do you want to meet with?" "Hey man, I don't want to meet with anyone of them!" "Mr. President, it is the meeting of all the world leaders, please Mr President." "Nope, I want to go see those nice ladies on the view because they won't ask me anything hard and they love me!" "I can talk about how I quit smoking and Michelle can talk about how the girls are not getting fat. I can say I draw energy from meeting with the sheep! I won't have to talk about murder, terrorist, war, nukes or even the economy!" "Mr President it is the UN!" "Hey man don't be a HATER!" So sad, so so sad! OMG! Well, men not one of you, no, not even one of you answered any of my questions.... hmmm, guess I am just a HATER who loves her government. Really, men what have you done besides hate on anyone that disses your man? 4 entries for the grammar cops....Ready, Set, Go!

Mitt Romney's campaign is so dead, the Mormons have baptized it.

The GOP has now moved from voter suppression to outright voter fraud:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/49227596/ns/politics-the_new_york_times/#__utma=14933801.269249430.1347580767.1348969959.1349007788.26&__utmb=14933801.2.10.1349007788&__utmc=14933801&__utmx=-&__utmz=14933801.1347580767.1.1.utmcsr=(direct)|utmccn=(direct)|utmcmd=(none)&__utmv=14933801.|8=Earned%20By=msnbc%7Ccover=1^12=Landing%20Content=Mixed=1^13=Landing%20Hostname=www.nbcnews.com=1^30=Visit%20Type%20to%20Content=Earned%20to%20Mixed=1&__utmk=181458599

Funny, I can't seem to find any reference to this on the Faux News website.

Romney 2016! "I'll keep running until I win."

All that proves, David, is that the GOP retains plausible denial by outsourcing its dirty work, ala the Plumbers, Blackwater, et. al.

Are you aware that the majority of CEOs are liberal arts majors?

It only makes sense. Liberal arts majors are generalists who can see the big picture, whereas engineers and scientists have become extremely specialized over the years. IOW, we read more and more broadly. ;-)

A writer, perchance?

Most of the scientists I've met are well read in their field but not so much outside their field. The exceptions are the academic scientists, who are highly creative and not bound by the strictures of industry.

But I'd agree that a specialty company needs a focused approach. However, a great techy rarely makes a great leader.

Techies or marketeers? Gates didn't write DOS and stole the idea for Windows from Xerox PARC, and Wozniak was the techy to Jobs' salesmanship.

Lee Iacocca and any of the top design engineers from Chevrolet’s Corvette performance division.

Lee for President - because has a proven history of paying back what he borrowed early, while producing IMPROVED materials / services.

The Corvette guys - because if we HAVE to own GM, at least they can produce something worth owning instead of telling us it always “Runs deep”.

Since they’re being run out of DC by virtue of our common "stake", we already know it runs deep and it’s a waste of ad monies.

Pay more than your fair share today and get a vette!

Yes R, John Heinricy would get my vote! :-)
