On a side note former Pres. Bill Clinton's speech was outstanding. I love how eloquently he takes all the little details, and exposes Romney/Ryan... pure Brilliance!
We Won’t ‘Let Our Campaign Be Dictated By Fact Checkers’
Awesomeness in a can !
I'm sorry Mike, for your unfortunate case of poor grammar. I'm sure if the ignorance you so openly express wasn't so excessive you may be worth listening to. I'm terribly sorry for your condition. I'm sure there is a member of the right who would be willing to pay for you to get that fixed. You may be searching for quite a while though; it's rare that a righty shares. I guess that leaves you pretty hosed. :/
To Mike (Post # 1)
To quote your Republican attitude comment:
Your extremely, uneducated inflammatory remark wishing death on others just proves the point of what the Republican Party really stands for: extreme hatred for the opposing Party to the point of wishing them dead, racial hatred of minorities , classicism, voting suppression, a "me, myself, and I" attitude, etc., etc.
Go back to grade school and get the education that you apparently have missed in your lifetime. And do try visiting church once in a while, too!
Independent thinker, follows the montra of the Socialsist Demacrap party. You want a few working to pay for them in Government (way to many). And you want the Government to take care of you birth to death, Pay most of your wages into un sustainable waste like Solendra and other scams from demacratic donors.Willie slick mouth immoral clinton is setting you up. Obozo, Hillery, Bill, the lieing trio, put them in a basket with Nancy and Harry you have a basket full of liars cheats and thiefs. They will say and do anything to stay in power, even if it means bank rupting the US, and putting us all in government fema camps, to control us.
Anger and insult. Me'thinks you doth protest too much.
mitt twitt & pauly crackers want your vote and your money.so they can tax the middle and poor working class to benefit their already oil rich bank accounts. higher education only for the filthy rich.little or no medical care except for the aristocrats.
oh my stars bill clinton's lies are just not as believable as mitt romney's lies.miss ann gonna put you barefooot in the kitchen and pregnant(you gotta wear dresses ladies).miss michele gonna get you physically fit, get you a good education and put you to work.
romney wont show his taxes. then talk about obama's birth certificate. how does he have any room to talk when his parents were born in mexico and never became American citizens (they were practicing pologamy)( not legal in the united states).
mitt romney for president romney's plan jobs go overseas (outsourcing). higher education for the wealthy. cut medicare and medicaid.(old and disabled people dont need this government income).vouchers for medical care (which covers virtually nothing). cut spending for the defense of the united states and homeland security.tax the middle and poor working class to line the pockets of the already wealthy constitutients.no amnesty for immigrants working to get their American citizenship.charity goes to the tea party(fleece party).no money for planned parenthood to help our young folks with birth control.(romney talked rick perry into banning government funding for planned parenthood in texas).....vote nov 2012 for...n-o-n-e of the above!!!!!!!
notice the background of the romney and obama. romney all aaryan people . obama all multiracial people.
Miike Joespheniie: I suggest you get your fat ass to California or Cape Cod and jump off the Golden Gate or Bourne Bridge and hopefully you either can't swim or better yet, the sharks spotted off of both shores have you for lunch - I am sure they won't enjoy it as you are horse meat. Any women in your life. If so, they should just push you off the bridge and take a video to show at the 2016 Republican Convention as a true die hard republican - have a good trip off the bridge.

Mike:
My President is a Man, not a boy. Who's doing the race baiting? At least I can be sure you are not from the religious right because the conservative christians are full of love, and grace, and forgiveness. Right? Oh, and since the demtards are the party of elitists who believe in education, we can be sure that the repubs didn't waste any money on your education at all. You should have kept your thoughts to yourself, because you are an example of all that is just plain "wrong." Hike up your overalls and get back to plowing the fields.
oh don't mind mikey... that's just how a tea bagger republicant sounds whenever he's had his azz thoroughly kicked by a great thinking democrat president
So, the Democrats decided to put back the words God and Jerusalem into their platform plank. I am sure God is exceedingly thrilled over such a magnanimous gesture, after the Democrats and apparently Obama, first spit him in the face by removing his name. Los Angeles Mayor, Anthony Villaraigosa the emcee of the convention, who called for the vote on God, fibbed in any case. They needed 2/3 of the delegates to vote "yes" and barely half of them did. Is this the way to influence people and win an election by removing God out of the equation? Obama finally decided to have God put back into the plank - realizing that this God removal business not go over well with the people.
God I could go either way on and with Jerusalem after several decades of Israel oppressing the Palestinian people I think it should at least remain a neutral city. Can't wait to hear the speeches and Mike I don't expect you to watch MSNBC but please find a place to find your news who isn't owned by Rupert Murdoch.
And did you see sandra fluke. Wow. Wow. Wow. Sarah palin on steroids. Just raw talent. There is soooo much in the dnc convention. I tell you it's because all the puppets were at the rnc convention. This country has soooo much talent. They had to be somewhere.
Anyway. If you watched sandra today and view her in room with the rushbo, you'd have to say that she would not be the slut as the rushbo called her but the dominatrix with the rushbo bent over. It would be a terrible thing to witness. I tell you a rushbo verbal apology would not be enough.
did you see the nice gold necklace that Lush Rimballs bought her?
At the RNC convention, we saw Mia Love, at 30 she is married, she has children and she was elected to Saratoga Springs City Counsel. At 30, Miss Sandra Fluke is still in college, demanding the government to force the school to pay for her birth control. The President of the United States and the Democrats think she is their poster child. Something is wrong here.
It's like clinton said. Arithmetic. Mr grover, the gop, the rushbo, & foxnews.com cannot do arithmetic. Ok. Ok. Take the insurance companies. Is it cheaper for them to insure a singe person like sandra or a family of 9 like santorum. I tell you any insurance company would pay santorum not to have any more kids. His last sick one cost his insurance company way over a million dollars. And that's the point. Where you need to do the math. It's cheaper to not have kids than to have kids. Insurance companies will pay you to not have kids. When you get insurance for your family, do they ask you how many kids you have. No. No. Of course not.
And i tell you it's why santorum dropped out of the presidential race. Because he has obamacare already with his govt insurance. The same as obamacare. He saw the advantages of the superior health care and couldn't answer the questions being asked him. How do you like your health insurance. Why is your govt health insurance good enough for you but not good enough for the taxpayers. I tell you obamacare is just like govt insurance. Ted kennedy made it that way. He promised to give you the same health insurance as what he had. He did and it's called obmacare.
It's called Socialist medicine, it does not work in other countries, and with dem wited demacraps in charge of it here, it will not work. We will be slaves working to pay for medical care we will not be able to get, long lines, lack of Doctors. Are Hospitals allready failing trying to deal with takeing care of millions of elegals, bound by law to give them care. Our schools over crowded with elegals, and underqualified union teachers, that can't be fired no matter how bad they are.
obama care beats romney no care anydayday.
Where in hell is Jack Markel's speach? MSNBC sux
Pilousy you suck - Obozo concentrated on Union jobs, and government jobs, not on the millions of people not depending on a government check to survive. and Green enegy scams for his donors. You are still lieing and manuvering your stupidity, you vote without even reading what you vote on.
Dear Mike, Too bad your comment was first. I am a conservative and you are an embarrassment to me. Why do you have to be so rude. Can you not find a way to contribute with substance?
It was interesting that about half of the people at the democratic convention did not want the word God put back in their platform.
We're trying to run a country... in the right direction, not create Heaven on earth. That doesn't exist dreamer
I keep seeing that the GOP is against women? I think all women have the right to control what happens to them. That being said Why should I believe BILL CLINTON who not only abused his power in office to take advantaged of young aid and then let her take the HEAT for it. If CLINTON said vote for what's best and nominated my GRANDMOTHER I would be leary!
Judy, you are full of... well, nothing of useful substance. President Clinton had an affair, maybe two or three... the point is, who cared? Certainly not enough people to remove him from office. What most of us cared about was the country. And he did a grand job of running it.
Judy-2762201 - have you never done something in your life that you are not proud of. I suppose if your husband cheated on you (that is, if you have one), would you be a big enough person like Hillary Clinton to forgive him. It really is sad that most of the cheating is done by men, but God tells us to turn the other cheek, do unto others that you want done unto you, and a thousand other things that I could quote. So, you obviously although not upright about it are anti-Obama. That is your right, but to hang onto something that is 20 years old is a long time - the Mormons can have as many wives as they want - what about that - oh, yeah, that is not consider cheating.
Who cares? Anybody that has an ounce of decency and pride for this country and the OVAL OFFICE WHERE HE HAD SEX WITH MONICA. Good job your idea of a good job and mine are two different thing. He was impeached still have not figured out how he got to stay in office, but his little affair cost the AMERICAN PEOPLE MILLIONS FOR THE INQUIRES THAT FOLLOWED. THE PEOPLE CALLED FOR HIM TO BE REMOVED!
Wrong Judy--the people never called for Clinton to be removed--just a few Republican hacks. The guy (Hyde) who was running the "trial" of Clinton had years before publicly confessed to his own extra-marital shenanigans.
Saying God is on the republican side and the democrats are not god=like, how many of you believe that God will bless the Mormon religion who says it is alright to have 10 wives if that is what you want. Wonder what the mormons would think if the women rebelled and left their church or better yet said equality for all - we want 10 husbands and when we reach 10, maybe we'll shoot for 50 or 100 (one every 6 months or so and then we can get rid of everyone of you and live on alimony all 100 have to provide - wow, we could be a multi-millionaire when we reach retirement age.
Romnal: Seems like you need to go back to school - where did you get elegals? I worked 40 years in the nonprofit industry serving all kinds of people. And, you want to know something, I cannot live on Social Security and have to go back to work at age 71. I am sure you will say it is my fault - I should have invested in retirement. Well, I have news for you - people who work in non-profit agency work all their lives do not have extra cash to put into a retirement account. So, support Romney and Ryan and see how far you can go - I bet you will never have the retirement incomes these two will have. And, wow, their parents all came from foreign countries - well, the only ones I know of who were here first and I don't know where they came from are American Indians, but I bet you consider them to be elegals too because they strive to be an independent nation witin the US - their God given right by the way. So vote for Romney and Ryan and see what you have at the age of 66 - depending on your age, it could be 86 before you will be allowed to collect social secuirty as an entitlement according to the Republican party.
Give it up Pat the REpublicans drank some very bad water 20 years ago and are now in disguise. First twenty years of my life I spent in the Methodist church and was taught the ten commandments if I remember right? LOVE< FORGIVE<DO UNTO OTHERS AS THEY WOULD LIKE YOU TO DO TO THEM<HELP THY STRUGGELING NEIGBOR<SHARE. ...On the other side was hate, lie, steal, covet, do mean things for gain, selfishness these adjectives I believe are the MANTRA the REPUBLICANS use to call themselves CHRISTIANS. I think they got mixed up its called expression of EVIL by SATAN's children. :)
I believe we are supposed to honer your mother and father, that does not include removing their benefits, cutting medicade as R&R want to do, will greatly effect their quality of life, if like many that have debilitating medical conditions in later life, but R&R want to remove any benefit and help they should be able to expect. After all they spent their life trying to do their best for you. If you vote for R&R, you are telling them you don't care. Most of us could not afford to pay for our parents if they must be in a care home, need total physical assistance, have to cope with dementia, or your brother or sister are disabled, and need special care, will you be able to pay for their care. R&R want you to, and if tou can't to bad, they will live in a deterating condition, or God forbid, because they can't get medical help..Think about it folks, is that the America you want to live in?
The Rebubs say your on your own. God say's what you do for the least you do onto me. Do nothing and you deny God, and your parents
