President Barack Obama canceled his campaign trips to Ohio on Wednesday as the rest of the 2012 presidential campaign prepared to largely resume its usual stride in the wake of Hurricane Sandy.

President Barack Obama makes a statement in the White House briefing room following a briefing on Hurricane Sandy on Oct. 29, 2012.
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney — who was holding an event on Tuesday in Ohio ostensibly intended to collect supplies and donations for storm relief — appears set to head to Florida on Wednesday before heading to hurricane-stricken Virginia on Thursday.
Earlier Tuesday, the White House announced that the president will no longer make his planned campaign trip to Ohio, and instead remain in Washington, D.C., to monitor fallout from Sandy.
With just a week remaining until Election Day and precious few hours remaining for Obama and Romney to sway swing voters in a series of battleground states, both candidates had to weigh politicking with sensitivity to the East Coast victims of Hurricane Sandy.
Gov. Mitt Romney attended a storm relief event in Ohio, urging supporters to "make the difference in the life of one or two people" by donating goods to benefit the victims of Superstorm Sandy.
The president faced additional official responsibilities in assisting to restore power to millions of Americans without electricity, and helping states cope with damage to infrastructure and beyond.
Obama won plaudits from a top supporter of Romney's — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie — for his handling of the storm's aftermath.
But, speaking on Fox News, the pugnacious New Jersey governor also angrily dismissed efforts to interpret his comments through a political lens.
“I have a job to do," he said. "If you think right now I give a damn about presidential politics, than you don’t know me."
Each presidential contender turned to surrogates on Tuesday to carry their message.

Former President Bill Clinton was set to stump for Obama in Minnesota and Colorado, while Ann Romney was scheduled to hold a rally in Iowa following several hurricane relief events earlier Tuesday in Iowa and Wisconsin.
Wednesday's campaign schedule resembled a more traditional agenda for candidates just six days before an election. Vice President Joe Biden was set to make stops in Florida, and Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan was scheduled to campaign in his native Wisconsin.
NBC's Chuck Todd reports on how the campaigns are responding to the storm.
The Romney campaign's official mobile phone application advised events for the former Massachusetts governor in Florida.
At this point, Obama's next publicly advised campaign events were set for Thursday, when the president was scheduled to make a three-state campaign swing with stops in Las Vegas, Boulder, Colo., and Springfield, Ohio.
Also on Thursday, according to the Republican Party of Virginia, Romney will make the first trip of any candidate to that battleground since Sandy struck.
Romney hasn't visited the Old Dominion state since Oct. 17, and canceled a planned visit this past Sunday for fear of diverting resources from preparedness operations.
The hurricane's aftermath continued, though, to inject broader uncertainty into the race for president and scores of downballot campaigns, as candidates' schedules were re-arranged on the fly.
Power outages and canceled campaign events also complicated pollsters' efforts to gauge public opinion in states affected by the hurricane.
NBC News' Chuck Todd joins Morning Joe to talk about the impact of Sandy on the presidential race and what he expects from both campaigns going into Nov. 6.
Of additional concern to both campaigns might be impact of inclement weather and hurricane fallout on early voting, a process used by both Romney and Obama to bank votes ahead of Nov. 6 itself.
Biden suggested on the "Enrique Santos Radio Show" on Tuesday morning that the hurricane may depress early voting.
"It may, it's just hard to tell now," he said of the storm's impact. "We've gotten the early vote out pretty well so far."



And we're back.....
How will Barry spin this one?
What a bastard Romney is,...to be focused on his underhanded campaign,...as the people are reeling from the damage inflicted by hurricane Sandy.
How callous of Romney to hold a "relief rally" in Ohio at this time !! OMG. Just think of that, so UNGODLY self-serving . He must think they are pret-ty gullible to not be able to see right through that. SHAMEFUL !!
Everyone should understand that Romney's finishing strategy is to simply bombard the media and everyone's senses with ads,...ads,...ads that speak negatively about the president. Romney's messages do not ring true and are just CONSERVATIVE PROPAGANDA. It has been their goal to oppose everything about Obama's administration since day one of his administration - unconditionally. It's all a power play on behalf of their wealthy corporate masters.
Obama has accomplished a lot given the circumstances he was handed due to years of failed conservative policies. OBAMA NEEDS AND DESERVES ANOTHER FOUR YEARS.
A time like this is the PERFECT example of why we need to continue to think of ourselves as a COUNTRY OF PEOPLE not simply investors and competing business interests.
NOW we may again see clearly what it means to be,..and to have,...and to NEED a neighbor.
It will be awkward to watch Mitt Romney try to feign conservative compassion for the citizens he plans to kick to the curb and abandon with his corporate welfare policies.
There IS a need for the guiding hand of government. There IS a need for taxes. There IS a need for social programs. There IS a reason to watch each other's back.
I don't know if it is God,...or just fate,...but THIS hurricane happened at THIS time before THIS election for a reason.
Our leaders' job is now to unite the people of the region to try to recover from this catastrophe. Should we think of this use of tax money as redistribution of wealth ? Where is the return for our investors ? Now that we are "all in it together",...we will all be in it together.
BUT as the GOP has seen the perfect financial storm gathering over the past generatrion all they can think of is how to distance themselves from those who are struggling. More tax breaks and bonuses and huge salaries and vacation home for ME,....and more pink slips and stagnant wages and less benefits for YOU.
BASTARDS >>>and that is to say they act like they have no country,...or no father,...or no family. The new right is uniquely un-American.
This is a country of "We the people".
If you care about your neighbor,....if you care about the majority of US citizens,....if you care for the America that was before this era of unprecedented greed and self-interest,...vote Obama/Biden on Tuesday, November 6th 2012.
Please, please, please,...come out to the polls and vote.
Say no to Ayn Rand's "ethical egoism and pure self-interest",.....and come back to American values, family values and "ethical altruism".
This is the wealthiest country in the world.
There IS enough for us to help our neighbors in need.
Let's support our fellow American citizens as they recover from hurricane Sandy.
God bless America,...God bless the PEOPLE of America.
Vote for Barack Obama and Joe Biden on Tuesday November 6th 2012
serfdom101.... is that the training class we will be taking if Obama is re-elected?
Serfdom. Romney has done a lot to help those affected by the storm, and of course all the liberals can do is attack, attack, attack
That's all they are trained to do. Hate Romney and attack him every which way from every possible angle. You have shown the liberal one track mind serfdom, and its not pretty. Of course it won't be the last I'm sure. Once pigotry, and fiesty and all those other spammers show up, I'm sure Romney will become the devil incarnate. Ryan aids at a soup kitchen, SHAME ON HIM. Romney donates his bus to help the relief, and holds drives to collect supplies HOW DARE HE.
Any person with a grain of self respect will know to look past the false and slanderous attacks that are sure to come.
Why would anyone vote for 0bama after everything he has screwed up?
I'd vote for a turd sandwich before 0bama, that slime ball has destroyed our economy and damn near our country.
Gallup, which had a distinct pro-Democrat bias in 2004 & 2008, now has Romney ahead by 5% (51% vs 46% for Obama) Nationally.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Looks like Hussein wants to act like he is really handling things this go around. Is that why after watching Ty Woods die in real time on videos from the drone flying overhead that he flew off to Las Vegas for a fund raiser? This is all show boating. The Governors from the States affected & FEMA have things well in hand. Or maybe the Brutha Hussein is going up in a Bucket Truck & hanging transformers with the Power Companies. He has already put all the powers in place to take care of the relief efforts. It's a shame he didn't think this much of the people in Benghazi.
serfdom: I don't call many people idiots; but you are a big one. I guess Obama running to two fundraisers in Vegas while our Ambassador in Libya was raped, tortured, dragged though the streets until he died; then lied to the country is okay with you hypocrites.
Where do you get your misinformation, and why do you keep repeating these Lies?
brewzky, your updated news from Libya will soon be made publicly available-right? It does seem to have a seriously flawed basis to it, however!
Obama's giving up Ohio because he knows he's going to lose!!!!
Romney is up 2 points in Ohio now and will be 4-5 points by Monday before the election!

Paul-977599
Watch the Congressional hearings on Nov. 15th & tell us what are & what are not lies. Just because the Lame Stream Media wants to cover it up doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Paul,
Only those who want to blindly support the President will:
1) Look at the Libya incident with rose colored lenses
2) Will somehow try to bring up Bush and Sep. 11, 2001
The truth is, the Libya incident was a massacre that didn't need to happen. There we're forces nearby begging to be allowed to intervene and they were told to stand down. Two seals dis-obeyed that order and went in anyways. They put their lives on the line to try and rescue these men, while some worthless politician watched the whole thing live from D.C. and told everyone else to stand down, because military intervention in Libya might look bad for the campaign. All four men died, the seals even had the mortar that killed them targeted. One missile would have put an end to it, but the only order given: Stand Down. There is no excuse, or defense for the Obama administration for what happened in Libya, and people are realizing it. Its just the media is pretty quiet about it, because most of the secretly endorse Obama, and will ignore this to get him re-elected.
brewzky23 "serfdom: I don't call many people idiots; but you are a big one. I guess Obama running to two fundraisers in Vegas while our Ambassador in Libya was raped, tortured, dragged though the streets until he died; then lied to the country is okay with you hypocrites."
I'd like to know who at the White House ordered our forces to 'stand down' (not try to rescue the Ambassador) during the attack in Benghazi that lasted for SEVEN HOURS. The attack was watched in the White House with drones flying overhead (possibly armed, but the Democrats refuse to confirm or deny since questions would be asked about why any missles weren't used to help the Americans under attack)
And after the attack was over and the Ambassador was murdered, Obama flew to Las Vegas for a fundraiser - SHAMEFUL.
How despicable is Obama to go to bed KNOWING that the embassy was under attack; know that these men has cried out for help - not once, but THREE times - and were denied? But, of course, Obama had a campaign speech to deliver in Las Vegas the next day. And, then, HE LIES to the American people.....there is blood all over this man's hands and a cover up so ugly.

The people know in Ohio bullsh!T when they see it coming from MYTH's orifices.
President Obama has got New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie on speed dial, for one thing, and members of his campaign will be collecting storm-relief supplies at their North Carolina, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Virginia offices.
That is a ringing resentment.

The committee investigating the Libya mess has the classified documents in hand. Much will be brought out during the hearings that will amaze people.
Lies told by Obama? You haven't heard the real lies yet, but you will. And, let me makspse this perfectly clear (as Barry would say), Hillary was over-ruled by Jarrett.
Are you guys even serious anymore?
The president- any president, anytime- has nothing whatsoever to do with getting power restored. Doesn't matter if it's a hurricane, blizzard, or Martian spaceship attack.
That falls to the utility companies- some of which are terrific, some absolutely lousy.
You have, however, planted a seed you probably never intended- power is going to be out for at least ten days. Now you've got people blaming Obama for it.
Great job.
I agree, people in Ohio are seeing the B.S. That's why Romney is taking the lead there.
And cue the panic mode liberal spammers. Any time now..... they'll be here....
No joe, I suspect you are liberal. But I do agree with you on that point. The President is not gonna throw on a cape and fly through disaster areas turning the power back on. Just like he didn't fly to Pakistan and shoot Obama in the head. All he does is sit in the oval office and nod his head and look good for the cameras while everyone else struggles to keep this nation in one piece.
I live in the northeast, and I can tell you that Obama and the federal government did NOTHING up here. The herculean efforts of all three state governors, Cuomo, Christie, and Malloy, are what averted a total and complete disaster of immense proportions in this region.
All three states had evacuation plans, shelters, and work crews available since late last week. The planning, notifications/dispersal of information, and the execution of disaster preparedness was excellent in all three states.
Hats off to the state governments of New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
DEMOCRATS FOR ROMNEY 2012!!!!!!!!!!
ZMan
Maybe you should listen to all of the nice things that Governor Christie is saying about President Obama concerning the federal role in the relief effort.
Your statement demonstrates two truths. (1) You are going out of your way to criticize the President where no criticism is warranted and (2) you are not a Democrat.
If your mission is merely to criticize you can always be successful, especially if the truth is not important to you. If your mission is fairness and truth you may have to put in a little more effort.

Dems Still Lead Republicans in Voter Registration
Too bad there are people in Ohio who don't work for the Auto industry. Therefore the president can't guilt them into voting for him. Again, Romney is gaining a lead in Ohio. So spin it how you want. He's winning there.
Looks like your alone Beverly. All your liberal spam fest buddies must be stuck on another article right now. Probably some article that mentioned Romney, or Ryan. Those are their favorites. Post after post of spammers commenting, then spammers replying to their own comment. Its almost dizzying.
That's right Bev,

The President, any president, has about as much to do with getting power on, as he does with the price of gasoline.
Hope all is well in New Jersey.

I just want the truth about Libya. I dont care about rhetoric, but I want the truth. This happened a month and a half ago...and the 'investigation' isnt complete yet? Are you kidding me? It should be easy...every communication going into and out of the white house is logged, recorded and filed. I am usually not a conspiracy theorist, but this smells like a cover up. What was this administration told, when were they told it, and what was the response? This is not rocket science. If it turns out that the President made every prudent action at the time, then so be it...but it will be out in the open....and no further speculation has to be made.
Just give us the truth.
Romney will not win the election because America does not reward negative, unlikeable leaders. Whenever I see Romney speak, I think "I can't take seeing this man on my TV for four years."
Romney tends to smile when he is talking about tragic events (have you noticed?) He gets over-excited when he is on the attack and verges on hysterical. In response to criticism, Romney, unlike Obama, doesn't "brush it off," he gets self righteous and whiney.
Yuck. I don't care whatever perceived weaknesses Obama might have, the President is easy on the ears, trustworthy, friendly and inspiring. I trust Obama, and I just don't like Romney.
Zman
It is the Governors and Mayors responsibility to have in place evacuation plans, rescue teams ready, responsibility to issue timely evacuation orders, and execute them well. It is their responsibility to get their state through the first 48 hours after the initial hit. After that, FEMA is supposed to arrive with relief and more supplies, and help to restore public roads and facilities.
Just noticed an error on 1.18. I meant to say "Osama". I've been typing "Obama" so much recently its almost second nature. My apologies, don't send the secret service to arrest me for threatening the president.
We don't need another wasted 4 years training a prez! Romney is what this country needs right now. obama will sit and watch things happen @ the white house (even if people are dying) while Romney gets out there and sees with his own eyes and meets with the people to asure them the government will support them.
Romney/Ryan 2012 keeping it real!!
Amy we already have an unlikeable leader in power.
Or should I say unlikely? LOL
Beverly in Chicago "The auto industry in Ohio helps President Obama. No need for spin!"
You mean the one where Obama criticized Romney for suggesting a 'managed bankruptcy with Federal guarantees', and then did exactly as Romney suggested.
For those who don't seem to know what really happened, GM actually DID go through a bankruptcy - precisely the one that Romney recommended. They also got Federal guarantees after the bankruptcy reorganization - precisely as Romney suggested.
John Doe- believe me, I'm no liberal. Ask anybody on this site.
I am also a firm Romney supporter.
Still, fair is fair- and I believe that the writer of this piece, in a misguided attempt to portray Obama as "in charge" of recovery efforts, inadvertently dumped responsibility for failure where it doesn't really belong. As a JCP&L customer- believe me, they will fail. They always do.
I blame Obama for the state of the economy, the size of the debt, the incompetence of not having a budget for three years, mishandling every crisis of his presidency, and his hopelessly inept foreign policy.
But the poor handling of power restoration? In all fairness, nope. I cannot.

Benghazi-gate is yesterday's news. Americans are concerned about the economy which has now been affected by Hurricane Sandy.
With precious few days left Americans will focus on the excellent JOB our President is doing to provide help to them and their family and friends.
See, MYTH has no plan for Hurricane Sandy victims or the economy. All this whirlwind you fools are trying to stir up over foreign affairs only allows people to see what a HACK MYTH and the GOP/Tea banger are!!
Sorry dolly
[John Doe- believe me, I'm no liberal.]
Ever since your BFF Hillary lost the nomination, right NoJo?
Sure you're not...
What an honor it is to have a man like Romney running for the office of POTUS! Look at what he did in Ohio as an example of how a Christian man, who made a commitment to attend this gathering, turns the event around and does well for those in need! Everyone GAINED by Romney fulfilling his commitment to the "campaign" stop!
As a result of Romney "flip-flopping", many families will benefit from the change from politics to disaster relief! Don't sell yourselves short America! You deserve a good man like Romney!
Good form Mitt... From you and your wife! Lead by example and not just words!
Romney / Ryan 2012
I watched a Sunday news program on Oct. 28th where both Senators Mark Warner (D-VA, Select Committee on Intelligence) and Mark Udall (D-CO - Senate Armed Services Committee) were asked directly (and individually) if the drones that were over Benghazi at the time of the attack were armed. Both refused to answer. In my book, that is most likely a YES. If that turns out to be true, this administration has far more to answer for because that means that they not only watched as it happened, but they had the means to at least try to disperse the attack.
YOU CAN COUNT ON ROMNEY AND REPUBLICANS TO DO EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO PREVENT PEOPLE FROM GETTING HELP FROM FEMA.
ROMNEY WANTS TO KILL FEMA AND PRIVATIZE IT SO THE GREEDY RICH CAM BE THE MIDDLEMEN REAPING PROFITS FROM MONEY THAT SHOULD BE GOING DIRECTLY TO VICTIMS IN NEED. rYAN PLAN SLASHES BILLIONS FROM THE FEMA FUNDING SOURCE IN ORDER TO GIVE MORE TAX BREAKS TO THE RICH AND ROMNEY!
Republicans have been blocking aid to victims for years just to slow the recovery process down to make the president look bad.

Red Hook, Brooklyn flooded on Monday morning
The East Coast is bracing for the ever-strengthening Hurricane Sandy, which will affect 50 million people when it makes landfall on Monday evening. President Obama has declared a state of emergency in 7 states and DC, allowing them to receive federal funds for emergency disaster assistance.
Depending on the outcome of next week’s election, future victims of natural disasters may not be able to receive the same kind of assistance. Mitt Romney has suggested shutting down FEMA and turning disaster relief over to private companies. Meanwhile, House Republicans have repeatedly attempted to slash funds for disaster preparedness and response in 2011:
With each major natural disaster in 2011, House Republicans dug in their heels over providing disaster relief. They repeatedly demanded the funds be offset by other spending cuts in the budget — even as a deadly tornado tore through Missouri, an earthquake shook Virginia, and when Hurricane Irene struck the east coast last year.
The politicization of disaster relief is likely to continue; the House Republican budget ignored a bipartisan agreement to make it easier to fund disaster relief, instead insisting again that spending cuts offset the emergency aid.

Romney stands by pledge to shut down FEMA
10/28/2012 11:48pm by John Aravosis 119 Comments Print
UPDATE: A GOP strategist just confirmed Romney’s intention to shut down FEMA, and suggested that at a time like this nobody cares about FEMA anyway.
“We cannot afford to do those things”
We reported earlier this evening on a video from the Republican primary debates in which Mitt Romney responds “absolutely” when asked whether FEMA funding should either no longer be guaranteed and/or the agency disbanded and left to individual states to handle FEMA’s responsibilities.
Tonight, the Huffington Post asked the Romney campaign to comment on what appears to be the suggestion that FEMA be shut down, and the Romney campaign refused to deny the underlying allegation, and then appeared to explain why it’s better to, in essence, block-grant FEMA to the states.
That’s clearly not a denial.
So, Romney thinks getting rid of FEMA, and leaving it to bankrupt states to figure out how to save their own citizens when we have a national disaster, is the more “moral” thing to do – Romney calls the current situation “immoral” in his video because it can lead to deficits. Romney added, when talking about FEMA and federal disaster relief: “We cannot afford to do those things.”
Remember: In Romney-land, nothing is more important than money. And the only real people, are corporations.
(Though rest assured that by tomorrow, Mitt Romney will have flip-flopped at least once, probably twice, on this as it’s difficult to formulate national policy when you don’t have your speaking schedule finalized for that day.)
Romeny should cut the BS and take his checkbook out if he is that charitable. Let's see 1/2 of the 1% I made off raping the Northeast......hhmmmm, 13.7 million. Oh, I can't give these peasants this much. I'll let the poor people contribute and it will all look good and I will shine.
You can put lipstick on a pig but it is still a pig. No to Romney, Get to your early Obama stations now that the storm has passed.
from the article: "The president faced additional official responsibilities in assisting to restore power to millions of Americans without electricity, and helping states cope with damage to infrastructure and beyond."
i am not sure that the president will really contribute much here. after the disaster declaration it is pretty much in the hands of others to keep the cleanup efforts going. no reason to stay in DC. certainly different than a month ago when the brutal murder of 4 Americans in a terrorist attack was deemed important enough to stay in DC. in the case of libya there was a whole bunch that he could have done to help but alas chose to party in vegas instead
interesting values this guy has.
Bev,
Yesterday news? That's a little heartless don't you think?
BULLETIN...NEWS FLASH...THIS NEWS JUST IN...
ROMNEY PLEDGES TO HELP THE NEEDY, THE POOR, BY GIVING THE NEEDY JOBS! UNFORTUNATELY FOR AMERICAN WORKERS THE NEEDY HE WANTS TO HELP ARE IN CHINA!
Yes Romney pledges to continue to help those needy people in China, Romney's new homeland, who like working for pennies behind the barb wire fences.
In a related news story, Romney's crack team of advisers(17 of 24 from the failed Bush team of advisers)handed Romney his Hurricane Sandy disaster plan today. Romney received a first edition of "MY PET GOAT" and will be reading it to children in Times Square at 6pm!
According to this report, yesterday (27 October) Obama ordered the immediate removal of Rear Admiral Charles M. Gaouette from his command of the powerful Carrier Strike Group Three (CSG-3) currently located in the Middle East.
US news reports on Obama’s unprecedented firing of a powerful US Navy Commander during wartime state that Admiral Gaouette’s removal was for “allegations of inappropriate leadership judgment” that arose during the strike group’s deployment to the Middle East. Seems he wanted to help our Ambassador and Seals on the ground, but was told to let them die. Oh, but don't stop there. Other commanders wanted to help also.
This GRU report, however, states that Admiral Gaouette’s firing by President Obama was due to this strike force commander disobeying orders when he ordered his forces on 11 September to “assist and provide intelligence for” American military forces ordered into action by US Army General Carter Ham, who was then the commander of the United States Africa Command (AFRICOM), against terrorist forces attacking the American Consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
General Ham had been in command of the initial 2011 US-NATO military intervention in Libya who, like Admiral Gaouette, was fired by Obama. And as we can, in part, read from US military insider accounts of this growing internal conflict between the White House and US Military leaders:
“The information I heard today was that General [Carter] Ham as head of Africom received the same e-mails the White House received requesting help/support as the attack was taking place. General Ham immediately had a rapid response unit ready and communicated to the Pentagon that he had a unit ready.
General Ham then received the order to stand down. His response was to screw it, he was going to help anyhow. Within 30 seconds to a minute after making the move to respond, his second in command apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.” Yep, our commander in chief knew it was a terrorist attack, we had assets in place that wanted to help, but our fearless leader said "Stand down" Now he fires real American heroes cause that's how he rolls.
Repubs, Repubs do you really think Romney can beat Obama then you fooling yourself and you need to wake up from dreaming because that all it is, nobody want Romney as president and if there is god above that want happen, strange things are going to happen before Nov. 6 and we will wake to Obama as President because right is right, Romney is such a liar and thief and it will be reveal soon he's the devil and god don't like the devil that why he was sent to hell like Romney and his buddy is headed on Nov. 6, he needs a one-way ticket to no man land!
You're joking right? Yesterdays news? Americans died, and there is a question as to what the President of the United States knew and when he knew it, and then his reaction, or lack thereof. You may have conveniently forgotten about this, but that doesnt mean all Americans have. We want a President that will make a decision and stand behind it...not stand behind others as decisions are made. BTW, I thought he did a wonderful job of throwing Hillary under the bus. She would have been 10 times the President he could ever hope to be.
That comment was sickening.
ROMNEY'S ADVISERS, (17 OF 24 OF THEM FROM THE BUSH CHENEY REGIME) ADVISED BUSH TO GO TO JOHN McCAINS BIRTHDAY PARTY IN ARIZONA AND THEN TO CALIFORNIA FOR A FUND RAISER WHEN HURRICANE KATRINA HIT SHORE IN NEW ORLEANS!
Yes that's right, the same failed team that gave Bush advise during Hurricane Katrina have been hired by Romney....the SAME FAILED TEAM that brought the lie nation into Iraq war causing thousands of our troops deaths...now want to help lead the nation into hell again like they did the first time under Bush!
govt issue...get cracking .....start investigation on why these same Bush advisers should be working for Romney after they helped cause the murder of thousands of our troops for war profits for Haliburton...this is not yesterdays news.....either...!

NEWSFLASH.....ROMNEY PROMISES IF HE WAS PRESIDENT HE WOULD ISSUE RATIONS OF HARD TACK AND A PINT OF RUM DAILY TO DISASTER VICTIMS!
Romney's adviser quickly corrected the candidate.......saying he would have issued more hard tack and a pint of rum to the troops in Valley Forge when George Washington was president!
Yeah...by holding a "storm relief rally" in Ohio! That's so lame...why not hold it in New Jersey, which took the brunt of it? Oh yeah, New Jersey is not a swing state, so he holds it where he's going to lose the election at! And how much "relief" is going to come from multi-millionaire Mitt? Uh, maybe zero? How much from his "rally" will go to help those affected? Wanna bet it's zero?
Meanwhile, Obama can score some serious points -- or lose points -- based on how he handles the whole thing. All he really has to do is a better job than Bush with Katrina, since that is the measuring stick. And Mitt will just look like a twit, holding bogus "relief" rallies that are nothing more than campaign stops.
Republicans, what are you going to do when your guy loses? Plan for 2016? Oops, sorry...2016 will be the year of Hillary Clinton, and there's nothing you can do about it...
ROY WILSON-336103
ROY , Right
What YOU DON'T KNOW is...the 2009 bankruptcy reorganizations at GM and Chrysler played a major role in the turnarounds at those automakers. It allowed them to shed billions in debt, along with plants, workers, brands and dealerships they could no longer afford.
MYTH opposed the federal bailout that kept the companies alive during the bankruptcy process. Without that $81 billion in funding, the companies would have been forced to go out of business and liquidate, according to those experts.
"There was no way they could get financing," said Conway. "They were burning money so fast, with no end in site, that no one but the government was going to give them money."
Steve Rattner, who served as the car czar for the Obama administration, has repeatedly said that the government was the only source of financing to keep the automakers alive through bankruptcy.
http://money.cnn.com/2012/05/08/news/companies/romney-auto-bailout/index.htm
See Roy you're not that astute.
Without the bankruptcy there was no money out there to pick up besides what President Obama did to save the auto industry.
Furthermore, the loans have been paid back with interest.

If the Romney foreign policy advisors believed there was any real issue there why did your candidate not bring it up during the foreign policy debate? Was it because he got his ass handed to him during the previous debate when he had his facts wrong?
Benghazi is a non issue.
Even General Petraeous (sp?) said that the information that they were receiving was not trust worthy and you do not send soldiers in when you are not sure of what is happening.
So, since the 9-11 attack was preventable according to the Republican chair of the 9-11 Commission (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2003/12/17/eveningnews/main589137.shtml), and more than 700 times as many people died on 9-11 than at Benghazi, why didn't Bush and Cheney face the firing squad? They are 700 times more guilty than Obama! Or why didn't Bush and Cheney face the squad when they went into Iraq in search of the invisible "WMDs" that they had zero evidence that they did exist, just so Cheney could make millions by issuing gigantic no-bid contracts to Halliburton, who was still paying him? There's the blood of 5,000 more Americans on their hands!
Oh, that's right...you guys are using the deaths of these people as a political tool because it might help your
clownguy "win". Keep dreaming...next thing you know you'll be blaming Obama for Hurricane Sandy, since he knew that was coming as well...I guess the father of the Navy Seal who basically told Obama to F off, we're not going to stand down and was killed is lying. This Navy Seal and a few others risked and gave their lives saving and trying to save others while Obama decided to do nothing except hope the citizens here really believe a silly little video was responsible. This young man gave his life trying to save the Ambassador and others, and Obama goes to Vegas to party with his demonized 1%er friends. Great guy. Then he makes Hillary stand up and take the blame.
brewsky
You are ranting and you are irrational. Your statements are pure speculation and, if you were watching the debate, President Obama clearly stated that he, not the Secretary of State, is responsible. He did not "make" anyone take any of his responsibility.
Why don't you "make" yourself pay attention to the real news.
The economic situation in America was fine until that socialist was elected into the White House. Now all the jobs are gone and things have just gone down hill. Obama is responsible for Jeep moving ALL the production jobs to China! Obama and gays caused hurricane Sandy! Obama caused all the problems in the Middle East! Obama hates America! Obama will take away your rights and enact Sharia law! And he is a liar!
I'm voting for Obama because even if all the things I just said were true he would still be better than that mitt dude.
DG: How do people like you make day to day. Oh, that's right on my tax dollars. Hmm, hey guys a plane could be used as a weapon one day in the future. Not sure when or how. Yeah, it's Bush's fault. That's like me telling the Chicago police depart. that someone will be robbed over the weekend. I guess it will be their fault they didn't stop it.
starsailing,
Are you sure I am the person you want to have this conversation with? I would bet every dollar I have that you have never stepped foot into the middle east...but I guess not everyone has the courage to actually raise their right hand, they would rather complain about things than fix them. OK, here is some free education for you. Everyone KNEW that Iraq had WMD's. In case you either forgot, or are not old enough to remember, here is a SMALL sampling:
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members.... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct. 10, 2002.
"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime .... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction .... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real ...."
Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003.
"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction."
Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002
This is a small sampling. I can fill up this page with quotes, including some from the leader of the Senate Intelligence Committee at the time. So, if you want to continue to spout the 'lies' told by the Bush administration causing the murder of thousand of military members, then by all means. I cant stop you. But then how do you respond to the above comments? Were these people just as 'guilty', or were they stupid, or could it be the intell was correct?
I did two tours in that God forsaken country and saw the remnants of their WMD systems (after we blew them up). I saw the parts stockpile for the delivery systems. I also spoke with some buddies of mine who were on the invasion force, who saw the convoys heading up into Syria. In full disclosure, neither they or I know exactly what it was, but there has been a LOT of speculation what was on those trucks.
I will debate the Iraq war with anyone. But I will tell you, after his quest for WMD's, attacking his neighbors, thumbing his nose at no less that 13 UN resolutions, and being involved in assassination plots for THREE US Presidents, I wouldnt have cared if they used unpaid parking tickets as justification.
So, I 'got crackin'. Tell me, exactly what have you done?
The letter to Obama read like this:

Yeah...by holding a "storm relief rally" in Ohio! That's so lame...why not hold it in New Jersey, which took the brunt of it? Oh yeah, New Jersey is not a swing state, so he holds it where he's going to lose the election at! And how much "relief" is going to come from multi-millionaire Mitt? Uh, maybe zero? How much from his "rally" will go to help those affected? Wanna bet it's zero?
DG_W,
Yes it is lame. People would rather have donations from Red Cross money donations which President Obama sent e-mails to his supporters to do than somebody else's expired can goods . Not only that the Red Cross is asking to not send food.
Why can't MYTH send some of his millions instead?
Ummm...I think you're confused. It was the mother of the Navy Seal, and she was criticizing Romney.
http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/10/romney-drops-seal-story-after-mother-complains/
Plus, Romney was so confused when he met this Seal that he forgot he had introduced himself...twice!
Two peas in a pod...
DG, when you talk about the 'previous debate' are you referring to the debate where the President refused to answer the simplest of yes or no questions? But I digress....I was disappointed it wasnt brought up. I do remember the charges by the Presidents campaign of politicizing the Benghazi attack right after it happened. I also know it was just a few days after and I can understand not knowing then...but here we are a month and a half later, and we still dont know? Thats my problem with this...we still dont know. But rest assured, were going to know the whole truth, AFTER the election.
Gov issue.....really great post!!!
by the way the star dude is always lost in a fog and navigating without a rudder!!! He evens each post with a chug of the KOOLaid...salud...indeed...NOT OPtimal!!!
DG: You're confusing mys statement with someting else. I saw a 15 minute interview with the Seals father. He was berating Obama for doing nothing.
Here is a newsflash for you Bev, the GM loans haven't been paid back, their stock sucks, and there is a possibility that they AGAIN may require government assistance.
Now where in the Heck do you find that all loans from GM have been paid back to the taxpayers? I'd like to read that statement. Or is this just another MYTH from you?
Good heavens girl, return yourself to the 21st century.
Beverly,
Are you serious? You think Benghazi is old news? Maybe to you liberals it is but to the rest of the country we want to know why our "leader" let 4 Americans die. The victims families would also like to know.
1funnygirl,
Thought this might interest you.
According to the latest Special Inspector General for TARP's Quarterly Report recently submitted to Congress , GM, Chrysler, and Ally Financial have repaid only $35 billion of the bailout funds to date. This leaves $44 billion of taxpayer funds unpaid.
In theory, some of that will be paid back when the Government liquidates its 32% share in GM, its 6% share in Chrysler, and its 74% share in the former GMAC. The problem is, if those shares were sold at current market prices, the net proceeds--about $20 billion--would saddle American taxpayers with a $24 billion loss. Did you see how the market opened today? I think the 24B loss is a conservative estimate. Will these companies pay back the losses? I dont think so, because they have 'paid back' their loans early. Remember that lie? The bailout was not structured to allow the American taxpayer any coverage. There was no incentive for GM or Chrysler to improve their stock prices. Actually, the exact opposite...keep the stocks low, so when the Government sells their shares at a loss, they can be purchased low, and then when profits come back up, they have made more money.
I think we can all agree, that a 24 BILLION dollar loss is not good. It didnt do any of us any good. In fact, GM is outsourcing more jobs to China every day. I shouldnt be surprised, the President's expert on job creation...you remember him, dont ya? The CEO of General Electric...who was introduced to us all as a job creation expert... funny how no one mentioned that he had JUST send thousands of jobs overseas.
Once again, the money was just handed over with no protection of the taxpayers. No benchmarks, no restrictions. Tell me again, WHO was the biggest benefactor of the GM bailout...it couldnt have been the UAW, could it?
At brewsky, I love your comments, nothing brings the undecided to the left faster than the ridiculous comments made by the right...keep em coming dummys.
Amy B. of Portland,
That is the reaction I have when I see Obama and hear him talk. I want to throw up. Then when he speaks you know he's telling lie after lie after lie. He is a socialist through and through. If he is re-elected this country will go down the tubes, like Greece, Spain , France etc. You can not keep on spending and taxing and giving money to your supporters, especially money you borrowed from foreign countries. I was born and raised in Germany, where socialism caused the world unimaginable pain and suffering. Now the German government is bailing out Greece and Spain, and there is a revolt brewing among the german people, because they are seeing their tax euros given to people who wont go earn their own living. It will happen here if Obama is re-elected.
lipstink: If I'm that powerful, you are truly very weak minded.
govt_issue:
You think you will find out anything about Benghazi after Nov 6th? Repubs will drop it like a hot potato and it will be declared the military acted properly due to a lack of accurate information in real time. It will wind up like F&F - nothing will happen because it's all a Rovian mountain out of a molehill tactic.
And to those idiots who quote the Russian Intelligence (GRU) for news about our military - stfu and come back to the real world.
blearyeyed,
In all honesty, I hope thats the way the investigation turns out. I really do hope that the system worked the way it was supposed to, and no one was denied a call for help. Right now there are just too many questions, and typically the longer something takes, the worse it is.
No spin necessary, STEVIE, you're losing, get over it!
Brewsky23....Maybe he should be pissed at Ryan for voting a g a i n s t additional funding for Embassy security! (Congressional Record ) If not for THAT....?(!)
It's documented. For weeks Stevens and others were practically begging our idiot in office for more security. And Navy Seals took it upon themselves to try and help and some ended up dying. Yeah, it's Ryan's fault now. Are you liberals ever going to hold Obama accountable for anything?
Now for some comic relief; it's a must see:
ObamaHandshakeSnubbed1.wmv
This is classic and shows how little respect Obama has internationally. Not one person would shake his hand. He walked down with his hand out, and every one intentionally shook the persons hand coming behind him. Find it interesting our liberal biased media has never shown this one. If this happened to a GOP it would be front page news 24/7.
It only lasts about 15 seconds; check it out.
brewsky,
It's just like "if you dont like the smell of bullchit, dont go to a Romney rally".
If you are not prepared to die, do not join the Navy Seals.
Bigdogg,
So you think 4 americans being killed by a terrorist attack is a non issue? Why, because your hollier than thou leader thinks its a non issue? How about Stevens? Did he deserve to die? You libs are sick people.
bigdogg,
So Navy Seals disregarded the 'stand down' order from the White House and attempted to secure and protect the ambassator. Yes, they were killed and you are saying if you don't wish to die don't join the Seals?
Are you an A$$ or what? How dare you make that statement. There was time to send in a response team as the WH did in Tunisia, but it chose not to. Why bigbrain? Many Americans want to know who and why made the decision not to secure lives.
Was it Obama the Great Divider of the Progressive left? Perhaps Valarie Jerrett who often tells Obama how to react. It wasn't Hillary, who wanted to protect the folks on the ground. She was for protecting her people, not delivering them to the terrorists.
Now you will continue that it wasn't a planned attack but crowds (with crew-served weapons) against a video?
Will the republicans move to continue the investigation after Nov 6? HeLL yes they will. I am amazed that you liberals believe this is old news without any anger towards the loss of life and the manner in which this happened. Had the president been a republican, would you still react in the same way? I think not.
Politics and protecting a failed president is more important than losing lives on American soil?
When the committee reads ALL of the classified documents, I hope they will share ALLwith the public. Then you may change your bias liberal attitude.
What happened in the situation room is criminal.....heads should go to jail for this lack of judgement. Right Jen Rene?
Gov issue........try using some current intel, including Bush admitting on Face the Nation there were no wmds in Iraq.......yes Bush and his cronies were still pushing the lie all over the world..for years....your sources are still a part of the lie....For your own peace of mind do search on ....BUSH LIES NATION INTO IRAQ WAR......I won't ask you to aplogize....there are still a few of you that can't handle the fact Bush/Cheney/Rove/Rumsfeldt and the crew of advisers Romney hired ......lied...lied...and lied some more.
Bush and Cheney were responsible for the murder of thousands of our troops, wounding and thousands still dying, more coming home from a war that never should have been, committing suicide at a record pace......How do republicans reward them? They just voted against a jobs bill, and plan on cutting Vets benefits to give more tax breaks for Romney and the rich.
BTW...I served my country while Romney pissed around in France like the coward he still is! If you ever have a sucking chest wound...I am the guy to see!
1Funnygirl,
The libs think it is a non issue because they only read lefty news and have not seen an article on it in some time. They think it is a non issue because they hate our people who protect the country and give them the freedom to run their big mouths. They think it is a non issue because they have no souls.
I'm serious, the rights attempt to politicize the tragic deaths of our ambassador and the former Seals is right down treason, you slime have no idea what happened. Nor will you know until it is fully investigated. You are using this for politics only and are way incorrect in doing so. Ambassador Stevens and those Seals knew the risk. Presidents cannot just snap their fingers and a platoon show up. You people should just be taken out and shot and have the trial later, in my opinion.
Starsailing,
It is 2012, your boy Barry has been in office for 3.5 years....not sure why you have to bring Bush into everything to try and cover up Barrys failures.
And what branch did Obama serve in again?
It's a non issue because there was nothing that could have been done to save them.
General Petraeous (sp?) said you do not send boots in if the information that you are receiving is not good and you cannot determine what the situation is like. It is like a mountain climbing team, you better have someone with the moxy to cut the line if they go over a cliff instead of pulling the rest of the team down with you.
JOhn in Battle Crick,
Actually the president can just snap his fingers and make it happen. He is the commander in chief. And Obama and his crew f-cked up. Just admit it.
OK, so bigdogg...please enlighten us with your plethora of combat operations experience. Please, I am on pins and needles. Anyone willing to make that kind of comment must have 'been there and done that'. Or are you a typical punch line politician whose only combat experience is from Call of Duty?
And Irish, you think its an issue because Rush Limbaugh told you so. Big deal.
ooooooooooooooooooo funnygirl thinks she knows military procedure. it is idiots like you who get people killed.
What I admit to Irish, is you deserve to be lined up with the rest of the rightys that are making something out of nothing and shot. Treason. You just don't know what happened and are just using this for politial gain. Shot is to good for people like you.
Big Dog,
It is an issue because of the lies told to try and cover up why they attacked our Embassy. If they didnt have all of the information then they should have not said anything except that they are trying to find out what happened. Instead they decided to blame it on a movie and that backfired. Now it is getting close to two months later and still no word? A 10 year old could have figured it out in less time.
Mitt the Twit is a loser and there is nothing that he can do or say that is going to change that.
What lies? He stated the very next morning that it was a terrorist attack.
So, you are 10 yrs old?
If he had taken your suggestion, more military personnel would have been killed.
Governor Christie shows what a bipartisan leader looks like, may we look forward to him being part of a Romney/Ryan presidency!
Irish,
You have no idea what the facts are.
John in battle crick,
Yeah yeah tough guy. Come and get me then. In your little warped liberal world anyone that sees Obama for what he is should be shot. Real classy. You are showing the tolerance on the left. And for the record I dont listen to Rush or any other radio, dork. Now please tell me where I should line up to be shot by you and your band of loud mouth limp wristed puss bags.
Bigdog,
I thought all the facts werent out yet. So are you holding back on something the rest of us dont know? And didnt you say earlier that people who sign up should know there is a risk of being killed? And he never said it was a terroist attack. Go back and watch what he said.
Intolerance for a traitor, a slime ball low life POS in my opinion, fortunately for you this is America and you can spread all the lies you can make up. Doesn't make it right now does in. The fact is YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED and are only using it for political purpose. Here is a fact for you, liberals own guns too. SOB tea bags like you may soon find that out if Romney steals this election.
John,
You are a real keyboard tough guy, eh? And you dont know the facts either. And how am I a traitor? Because I actually question what politicians in Washington do? The constant lying from both sides should be pointed out and questioned. And I am not a Tea Bagger but I would rather be associated with them than a puss bag liberal. If you are looking for someone to steal the election look no further than your false idol. Better get used to saying this one Johnny boy: President Romney!
P.S. You are very violent for a peace loving tolerant liberal. You might want to seek some help.
Irish,
President Obama stated that it was an act of terrorism.
If what funnygirl says is true, that they disobeyed the ORDER to stand down, there was a reason why the ORDER was given, they disobeyed an ORDER and they payed for it.
Irish,
In post 1.82 you called it a terrorist attack. So let us start by you defining it what it is.
What happened to Irish, did his mommy call him for dinner?
starsailing,
I suppose its a good thing you arent asking me to apologize, as I have no intention of it. I saw the interview, and read the reports. What was failed to be brought up during the Monday morning quarterbacking is the amount of sarin gas that was found, the modifications of the scud missiles, the maintenance facilities and engineering plans. The interview surrounded the yellow cake uranium, in which if memory serves me correctly the paperwork was forged by an official in Niger. So yes, I will concede that yellow cake uranium was not found. There, you got me.
Actually, I suppose I do owe you an apology, or more of a thank you. Anyone who serves/served deserves that.
Bigdog,
I see it as a terrorist attack. And a planned one at that. To much info getting out that points to a big fumble by the administration. As far as the SEALs...... I think they were right for going in and trying save some lives.
Big Dog and John are prototypical, hypocritical liberals. They know,unless they are truly stupid, (high probability there) that Obama lied and has been attempting to cover this up. If it were a GOP the liberal biased media would make this headline news 24/7. And Obama did not admit it was a terrorist attack for 2 weeks. The next day he was surmising the possibility of a terrorist attack, when he already knew. But this scum bag has been telling the world how everything is under control do to his tough stance on terror. After all it was Obama, and Obama alone that killed Osama.
Starsail: You're not even worthy of a retort. It's very tough debating the mentally challenged, which is what Romney found out.
Bigdog,
Sorry pal.....I do have other things going on besides arguing with blind sheep such as yourself. Anyway champ....I have to run. Nice chatting with you. USA! USA!
John,
Hopefully you dont blow a fuse in your head with all of that rage and anger. Stay classy my fellow American.
P.S. Obama lied and Americans died.
Any else tired of having to hit mute or lower the volume every commercial break? It is bad when I miss normal commercials :P. I guess us battleground states have it the worst atm. 4 and 5 pro Mitt ads in a row and then an Obama one...it is over yet? Mitt is outspending Obama and shouting louder atm. This is just like what happened during the GOP primaries.
Bain/Mitt moving more jobs overseas to China. Taking a company (Sensata) that made record profits in 2011, were working 24/7, and will be closed before the end of the year. He really cares about saving American jobs huh? His false claim about Jeep moving its factories overseas made Chrysler have to release a statement saying how wrong Mitt was.
Ohhh, there they are. I knew the liberal spammers would show up. Were you sleeping starsailing? Must have been. Where are the rest of your buddies? Maybe they got banned (one can only wish). For a while there there was an actual conversation happening on this thread. But the dedicated spammers had to show up and put an end to that sort of nonsense.
starsailing...
So little time, so many democratic talking points you don't understand to cut and paste, eh?
Here's another roll of paper towels for you. I would imagine the frothing generated during your rants is becoming bothersome.
)////)
PS - They're Bounty the Quicker Picker Upper towels...for people who want to spend less time wiping and more time typing.
Govt issue....you need to keep reading the search on........Bush lies nation into Iraq war....you are not done yet...I can post them...here...but other rt wingers will just put on their headphones and listen to their theme song banjo picking music.
It is hard for some people to see that their own government sent them to war knowing it was about war profits and Bush telling his assistants (Airforce) before 911 that he "wanted to be known as a war president, because war presidents are remembered." I have a number of friends served in Iraq, relatives, one missing missing part of a foot, that came back after multiple tours. Now they have found out after research , what the world knows. They was no reason to go to war, it was a lie.
Nixon did the same thing. Read or listen to the LBJ tapes with taped conversation with Sen. Repub Dirksen. Nixon found out LBJ made peace agreement between North/South Viet Nam and China. He sent envoy to convince South Viet Nam he could get them better deal. The day before elections, Nixon announced he had a plan to end the war. He didn't but got elected because of it. He expanded war instead and murdered two of my best friends. The war would have ended.
It is hard for a family to realize they were used in war...for politicians personal gain. Rt wingers refuse to know the truth.....Some of them still think pro wrestling is real too!
Choosing these 17 advisers from Bush regime is a red flag from the graves of those they killed.
O'bama...when are you going to have a real press conference and answer some questions you @!$%#ing coward?
I was wondering when starsailing was going to do the Bush blame and now he is back to Nixon and you called blaming Bush current???
BTW...the media lauding Obama for putting his campaign on hold better look again. His campaign has NEVER stopped...just being run by Clinton. He is holding rallies all over the midwest while Obama is doing photo ops in the situation room and shaking hands.
When I read these liberal women I think that liberal women think/speak with their woman parts and conservative ladies think and speak with their smart parts.
Didnt O'bama say he was going to have a transparent administration? Now he wont even have a press conference! Run coward run!!!

Dude, New Jersey was about wiped off the face of the earth in the last 24 Hours. How on earth do you think they could collect aid there at this time? WOW!
COOCOO....Romney hired 17 of 24 of his advisers from the Bush Cheney term....What part of the connection don't you get? Well like Romney says...you can fool some of the people some of the time....and coco is the person I want to speak to!
CooCoo....Vets have a hard time dealing with finding out they were cannon fodder for war profits.....They have a right to. Whether in Viet Nam, Korea, or Iraq....the family understands each other......something you wouldn't know about.....run out to the Mall of America and do some shopping at the Pretty Princess shop.
Starsailing uses evil oil products!
Just got through a host of stories on who's ahead in Ohio.
Obama is using the fact that the counties he carried are up over 2008 with the assumption that means he is winning by a big margin.
Here's the first problem. When considering the counties won by Bush in 2004, Obama's assumed advantage drops to about 10,000+ votes.
Here's the second problem. Upon a closer look at where the ballots are comting from the up is in the Republican precincts dominated precincts more than the democratic ones.
And the third problem. Polls consistently are showing that Romney is a 15 - 19 point favorite amoung the independents. Historically, the candidate that gets the majority of the Independents wins Ohio. The only hope for Obama is to get enough of the registered democrats to get out an vote. Being the vote was 40% Republican in 2004, there probably are not enough Democrats to over come the margins.
I call BS on Mitt in Ohio for 'disaster relief'. That's a campaign rally pure and simple (and disgusting).
You might be correct but let's wait and see. I think we owe the American public that much. We'll see if he can keep it politically neutral.
Scavok...my guess is that whatever Romney did you would be upset. He is in a position to raise funds and get some supplies for the victims, so he is doing it.
Before the Hurricane hit, Romney had his campaign offices start taking food, water, and blankets. Rather than cancel events, in Ohio, he is collecting more staples to take back to Virginia when he returns on Thursday. Great ideas!
DB Akron - my office did the same thing so Romney is doing what most people are trying to do - nothing outstanding or even out of the ordinary for that matter.
Obama/Biden 2012
Campaign Pause?
There is a campaign pause, and it's the president doing the pausing.
(The UK Telegraph): As the US Eastern Seaboard struggles to come to terms with the impact of Tropical Storm Sandy, presidential election campaigning has been temporarily suspended. “The election can take of itself,” Barack Obama said yesterday evening.
At least, I thought it had been suspended. But I was wrong …. Mitt Romney is to attend a “storm relief event” … Paul Ryan will attend a separate event to “thank volunteers”…
…. Except Paul Ryan isn’t thanking volunteers in New York or Atlantic City. He’s thanking them in the in the pivotal swing state of Wisconsin. And he’s not thanking volunteers actually involved in the relief effort (they’re too busy trying to bring relief to people)…..
And Anne Romney? … she’s attending two “storm relief events” of her own. And where are they being held? Well, knock me down with a feather. Or a hurricane. Anne’s off to Wisconsin and Iowa …. both vital to her husband’s election chances.
What about Mitt Romney himself? His “relief event” is taking place – again purely by chance – in Ohio…..
http://theobamadiary.com/
DB, please, spare us.
This is the guy who wants to be our president.
Mitt Romney was the 70th governor to serve Massachusetts, but was an absentee governor during the four
years from 2003-2007. Mitt Romney was absent for 417 days to be exact, a little over a year that Romney was absent from the job he was elected to do on November 5, 2002.
Mitt Romney loves to tell interviewers and audiences what a great tenure he had as Governor of Massachusetts. The narrative he presents is of an engaged governor who constantly met with the
legislative branch. Romney loves to add that he met with the leaders of both parties.
According to a New York Times analysis, Governor Mitt Romney was often missing in action, taking trips to places like Utah. In fact, when President George W. Bush announced that the nation was at high risk of a terror attack in December 2003, Mitt Romney was not in his home state of Massachusetts, but at his Utah retreat.
During much of the time Romneycare was being debated and negotiated in the Massachusetts legislature, Mitt Romney was out of town and presumably, unengaged.
According to the New York Times analysis, more than 70% of that time away was for political or personal reasons. While some of it was lengthy vacations and weekend getaways, toward the end of his term Romney spent much time laying the foundation for his failed 2008 campaign for President. In October 2006 alone, Romney was gone for 25 days.
The people of Massachusetts got the sense from Mitt Romney that he was more interested in attaining the governor’s post than in doing the job.
This leads to the most obvious question in this campaign to date.
Is Mitt Romney more interested in attaining the job of President of the United States, or actually doing the
job?
http://www.examiner.com/article/mitt-romney-was-absent-more-than-year-or-417-days-as-governor-of-massachusetts
Scavok - Suggest you look at the weather radar over the past few hours. Ohio too is getting a good share of wind and rain (and some snow). Not the amount or strength of the East Coast but why go there to muster up humanitarian support when they are in the midst of just now seeing where they stand.
New York Times:
With Obama, we can anticipate that the unfinished business of universal health care and the re-regulation of the Wall Street casino will be finished. We can expect investments in education, infrastructure and innovation, followed by a gradual, balanced attack on deficits that includes higher taxes on the wealthiest …. We can expect the Pentagon, after winding down two wars, to bank a peace dividend ….. The fact that these objectives represent a continuation of his first term does not mean he is aiming low. These are ambitious goals.
If Romney is elected…. we can fairly expect a rollback of universal health care in favor of the rough marketplace, and at least a partial dismantling of regulations on banks, extractive industries and whatever other industries squeal about job-killing red tape. We can expect a lowering of the safety net, especially a retrenchment of Medicaid and a marketization of Medicare. His deficit plan will rely on draconian spending cuts and on the supply-side superstition that tax cuts automatically produce growth …. You can expect another Scalia or two on the Supreme Court, the defunding of Planned Parenthood and a social agenda aimed at appeasing the evangelical base….
There’s more, but you get the idea. Two agendas; compare and contrast…..

Northern Ohio is getting slammed with wind and rain. Many people without power and lots of flooding. Romney is in Dayton, no where near the bad weather. For those who are complaining about Ann Romney and Paul Ryan still making appearances, you do realize the Bill Clinton and Joe Biden are also making appearances (and doing nothing for disaster relief by the way). Are you just as upset about that?
Db....Daisy.....great posts!!!
Romney is showing why he is Presidential and BOZOhussen is nOT!!! Actions speak louder than words!!!
When I lived in Fla. the Salvation Army and the Mormon church were the first to show up and help.....long before the Red cross and FEMA!!!
Seeking, Romney acted Monday morning before others thought about it. I saw the posts here yesterday. Your side was only talking about doing that. None were talking about Obama telling them to do that, they were talking about them putting such efforts together. I don't know if they heard what Romney was doing or if they just decided to do that. All I can tell you is that I saw the talk start AFTER I had know about some of what Romney was doing by hours.
There are a lot of really good people on the left. The leadership seems to be more reactive than proactive.
Governor Chris Christy had nothing but praise for President Obama's leadership last night.
Salud
I think it's funny that Biden needs a chaperon to go out campaigning. And they chose Clinton (the women dis respecter). Romney is a person that has been doing these kind of relief ventures for many many years, especially when there is nothing to gain. He is a great man and will be an even greater president. Embrace this and and be thankful he's here to help us all!!
Romney/Ryan 2012 to save America for our children & grand children!
DB Akron - We've been collecting since last week as have many offices - since we knew this was coming. Maybe WE should run for President instead of Romney - he surely knew, as everyone else did - this was coming. A little late to the party isn't he?
Obama/Biden 2012
Pat Boston MA,
Obama is pausing? When did he ever start?
No more 4 44.
NOBAMA 2012!!!!!
Listen folks. It's dirt simple.
IF you defund FEMA and pass it down to the states you will see States go bankrupt. FEMA is like Insurance. It spreads the cost across the Nation like Insurance spreads across more people.
FEMA won't be cut. Mitt screwed up wanting to look good in his debate. Welcome to wishing you said something else. :)

Is that the same Murray Energy with the CEO who sent out letters to his employees warning them there may be laid off if Obama is reelected? The Murray Energy that's run afoul of campaign contribution laws? That Murray Energy?
PatBoston,
To hear you tell it, Romney was doing what Obama has been doing for the past 4 years?
What was Romney doing the day after Katrina Hurricane?
Answer: exporting jobs to China and taking a tax deduction for it.
Sel, at least now I know it's not just VA. I thought he was just spamming this state with new ads. I wondered why is he doing so many new ones. The election is next week, why waste the money on new ads this close to election.
ROMNEY IS ORDERING MORE SUPPLIES FOR THE NAVY TO HELP OFFSHORE IN THE DISASTER AREA.
SO FAR HE HAS 5000 EYE PATCHES, 1200 PEG LEGS, AND 24 PARROTS! GREAT jOB MITTSTER!
Yes Romney the vulture capitalist went to one of his offshore accounts , dug up one of his chests, and while digging found another prirates chest also. So he raided it and picked up a pack of shirts at Costco with the pieces of eight he stole.
The rest of the money he used to buy an American company and is in the process of sending those american jobs overseas,....yes building eye patches and peg legs for our navy.
How many more people will we let Obama kill???? Benghazi 4 are enough... Obama did not do his job.... 3 o'clock call in the morning and Obama fell short!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Romney team of advisers...17 from Bush Cheney team...murdered over 4000 of our troops, thousands more wounded and still dying..........Romney thought they did such a good job murdering our troops for war profits..he hired them......
Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel, "Pick up your shovels, mount your #$%$ and camels, and I will lead you to the Promised Land."
Nearly 75 years ago, (when Welfare was introduced) Roosevelt said, "Lay down your shovels, sit on your #$%$, and light up a Camel, this is the Promised Land."
Today, Congress has stolen your shovel, taxed your #$%$, raised the price of Camels and mortgaged the Promised Land!
I was so depressed last night thinking about Health Care Plans, the economy, the wars, lost JObs, Savings, Social Security, Retirement funds, etc. I called a Suicide Hotline. I had to press 1 for English. I was connected to a call center in Pakistan. I told them I was suicidal. They got real excited and asked if I have a Back Pack!!.
Folks, we're screwed.... OMG====Obama Must GO!!!
Border Joe, it used to be EVIL for a RAPE to ocuur & a Child to form, which wooda been SATANS SEED !

You Betcha!

Yea, Border Joe, you must be one of the lucky ones. Either you are retired and on Medicare, independently wealthy or you have healthcare insurance through a stable job. If you do, heaven forbid you should ever get a serious disease and get laid off, because then you would have no medical insurance when you needed it the most. The rest of us aren't so lucky.
Joe, are you one of the 47%? Why don't you start taking responsibility for your life and stop whining. If you can't be successful that's your fault, not some Presidents fault.
Ohooo, the Sheeplole can NOT find any substance to talk about....so they Chug the KOOLaid and shoot OHaaaBahaaMahmmmaaaaa!!! The Chicago MOBpolitical attacks and twist and lies is not working anymore!!!
When ROMNEY restores our GOD given Constitutional Freedoms..you are the Sheep that BOOooo when God is mentioned and will complain when your ENTITLEMENT of taxpayer given Substances are removed...
WE the People can not afford to carry you Parasites anymore!!! TOOO SAD for you...you may have to get a job!!! I watched the likes of you in the 60's, you'll riot and loot rather than work!!!
Rick, KY,
So the kids are at fault? So are you.
Get a job.
Don't have children.

Al Qaeda is alive, and Ambassador Cris Stevens is DEAD! Obama lied about the attack, on our Consulate. In Benghazi, Libya. Why?
Romney Ryan2012
If you really even cared, which you obviously don't, you would mention the names of the dead Ex-Seals who died with him. You never do because you really don't care. You only care about blaming Obama for any Lie you can make up about him.
border joe
Well I see the DUMB LIBS are here tonight..... Or should I say the STAND IN LINE PEOPLE FOR HANDOUTS!!!!
Entitlements are killing the US..................................
Why should I work? Only reason I work is for those who do not WORK!!!!!! WRONG!!!!!
We need to have an open season on those who will not or wont work then our great COUNTRY will be truly free!!!!!!
Thanks to all the State, Local, and Federal leaders for apparently preparing as good as could be for this storm.
It is time for us however, to consider who we want to lead this country for the next four years. On one hand we have President Obama who has failed to lead an even satisfactory recovery and who is incapable of providing real leadership on the world stage. On the other hand we have Gov. Romney who has proven himself capable of leading businesses, turning around an Olympics, and leading a predominantly Democratic state.
Mitt Romney is the man to lead a turnaround in this country. He is not an idealogue like our last two presidents, he is a problem solver and a leader. This is exactly what this country needs.
Actually Willard Romney is a shameless opportunist plain and simple. Romneys business practices are anything for the bottom line and if that means destroying American jobs and sending them overseas thats fine with him as long as it lines his pockets. The only thing Romney did for the Olympics was lobby for Fedral money. The folks in Utah do not trust him and neither should you.
Romney and Ryan would like to do away with ferderal disaster relief and privatize it so once again we can pay huge prices for no bid contracts to his cronies.
In short Romney is a big corporate puppet who promises to revert back to the very same policies that crushed our economy. Wake up
Johnny...it appears you have spent too much time on DailyKos...take a breath here.
The performance of the Mayors and Governors of the areas affected by the storm, demonstrate that adequate local leadership is what is really needed in this situation.
Alas, you have become so hyperpolitical that you think that what you said above is actually true and not just hyperbole.
All BS Johnny. You would not understand good business job creation if it bit you in the butt.
So selling out American workers and shipping jobs overseas is good business job creation?
Am I in the Twilight Zone?
You Republican voters who vote Republican no matter who your canidate is should educate yourselves on the issues and the policies of the person you are voting for. As of now Willard Flip Romney has given us no idea what he would do once in office. He has been on every side of every issue and he thinks his constituency is dumb enough that he can bluff his way thru. Politicians like Willard Flip Romney are what is wrong with Washington.
Romney is a fraud at best and a crook at worst. He isn't honest with anyone about anything. And, he's the only Presidential candidate in modern time given a pass on his tax returns indicating he has much to hide. But those with low intellect will follow him like the Pied Piper because they so want to believe in the shiney object that is hollow and had absolutely no substance.
Romney is NOT a job creator except minimum wage jobs. He has no plans he is competent to talk about and has no ideas about anything. He has insulted our allies and our citizens over and over again. We cannot afford to have a buffoon like Romney in the White House. He is welcome to go back to the Caymans!
Obama/Biden 2012
Johnny and Seeking: More democratic spin. No facts whatsoever. All a poor regurigitation of what you heard from Mika on "Morning Joe."
i think you have the wrong guy as the liar. oboma campaigned on cut deficit by 50%. bush (regardless of his job or how you feel about him oboma said) was unAmerican and down right unpatriotic for running up the deficit but yet he (oboma) has spent more money than all, that is all US presidents in the history of this country combined.
who is the liar and who is unamerican and who is unpatriatic.
folks oboma said this. he did worse than all combined.
you guys are an idiot if you vote this guy in for another 4 years.
you would be unamerican and unpatriotic if you do. you will be a traitor to your kids and everyone who comes after you.
that is the bottom line. unamerican or a change.
So, Brent, if federal help isn't required at all, then why is Chris Christie thanking Obama for being available during the crisis?
jatty....that is all the sheeplole have been taught...They think SNL, letterman and drug induced like of Madonna are the source of all truth!!
Chicago MOBpolitics at its best!!! Ra-Emauel and the messiah have spoken!!
Like a vampire, the Governor will suck the life out of American's Poor and Middle Class.

seeking -- in my observation you repeatedly spew hate and offer opinions not grounded in reality (hence your name?) about romney but rarely praise obama.
can you possibly share why you believe obama should be reelected? it would be nice if you could do this without calling anyone vile names or throwing insults as is your typical behavior? imagine that you are trying to convince someone as you look in their eyes why obama deserves their vote.
because he's not a retardican that's enough of a reason. Your parties platform is toxic there is NOT A SINGLE GD good plank in it the entire platform needs to be burned to the ground.
Again tomas is lost in the fog....he explains exactly why the Constitution is set to limit the size of Government....the Founding Fathers were Intelligent and God-inspired Men....they knew Tyranny and BIG Government is it!!! . BOZOhussen is the embodiment of Big Government and there by Tyranny!!
Yet the Sheepole do not recognize even that which they claim to dislike...as long as it is possessed by their Party!! . They even try to spin it onto those who stand against it!! . Shameful!!! . Keep chugging the KOOLaid, the rest of the Sheeplole believe the sewage you spew as truth!! Salud!!
The self thinkers are not buying it....nice try. Too little , too late!!!
ThomasGrande,
"Like a vampire, the Governor will suck the life out of America's Poor and Middle Class."
Like a vampire the Government (Obama Administration) has sucked the life out of America's Poor and Middle Class. Couldn't be more correct!!!
Stay thirsty my friends!!
Gotta tell you BorderJoe, I like the kool aid. It's a hell of a lot better that the $hit the republicans are shoving....... And I can't wait to vote the entire Democratic ticket next Tuesday. I'll be at the polls by 6AM. For once, I'd like to make the first vote in my district be for the President...Live free or die...and romney don't cut it.
Four dead in Benghazi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Romney 17 advisers...over 4000 dead.....and still serving....lie into Iraq war crew...hired by Romney for more war profits and Americam murders in the future.....
Dumb libtards can not see the truth for all the BS the Dems put forth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Four dead in Benghazi! Obama has killed 4 innocent people for his lack of presidential command!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Try proving that allegation in a court of law, richard. Or feel free to STFU.
What a bastard Romney is,...to be focused on his underhanded campaign,...as the people are reeling from the damage inflicted by hurricane Sandy.
How callous of Romney to hold a "relief rally" in Ohio at this time !! OMG. Just think of that, so UNGODLY self-serving . He must think they are pret-ty gullible to not be able to see right through that. SHAMEFUL !!
Everyone should understand that Romney's finishing strategy is to simply bombard the media and everyone's senses with ads,...ads,...ads that speak negatively about the president. Romney's messages do not ring true and are just CONSERVATIVE PROPAGANDA. It has been their goal to oppose everything about Obama's administration since day one of his administration - unconditionally. It's all a power play on behalf of their wealthy corporate masters.
Obama has accomplished a lot given the circumstances he was handed due to years of failed conservative policies. OBAMA NEEDS AND DESERVES ANOTHER FOUR YEARS.
A time like this is the PERFECT example of why we need to continue to think of ourselves as a COUNTRY OF PEOPLE not simply investors and competing business interests.
NOW we may again see clearly what it means to be,..and to have,...and to NEED a neighbor.
It will be awkward to watch Mitt Romney try to feign conservative compassion for the citizens he plans to kick to the curb and abandon with his corporate welfare policies.
There IS a need for the guiding hand of government. There IS a need for taxes. There IS a need for social programs. There IS a reason to watch each other's back.
I don't know if it is God,...or just fate,...but THIS hurricane happened at THIS time before THIS election for a reason.
Our leaders' job is now to unite the people of the region to try to recover from this catastrophe. Should we think of this use of tax money as redistribution of wealth ? Where is the return for our investors ? Now that we are "all in it together",...we will all be in it together.
BUT as the GOP has seen the perfect financial storm gathering over the past generatrion all they can think of is how to distance themselves from those who are struggling. More tax breaks and bonuses and huge salaries and vacation home for ME,....and more pink slips and stagnant wages and less benefits for YOU.
BASTARDS >>>and that is to say they act like they have no country,...or no father,...or no family. The new right is uniquely un-American.
This is a country of "We the people".
If you care about your neighbor,....if you care about the majority of US citizens,....if you care for the America that was before this era of unprecedented greed and self-interest,...vote Obama/Biden on Tuesday, November 6th 2012.
Please, please, please,...come out to the polls and vote.
Say no to Ayn Rand's "ethical egoism and pure self-interest",.....and come back to American values, family values and "ethical altruism".
This is the wealthiest country in the world.
There IS enough for us to help our neighbors in need.
Let's support our fellow American citizens as they recover from hurricane Sandy.
God bless America,...God bless the PEOPLE of America.
Vote for Barack Obama and Joe Biden on Tuesday November 6th 2012
Stop it, why don't you show some class. You would only be happy if Romney stopped campaigning for the next week.
I will tell you one thing. We certainly see through Obama on Benghazi.
serfdom101.... is that the training class we will be taking if Obama is re-elected?
Bengazi...... on average (5) soldiers every week come home from Afghanistan in Body bags and were supposed to worry about (4) US embassy workers getting killed who put themselves in harms way in the one of the hottest Muslim nations on earth to make a lot of money.
Quite frankly dear....I don't give a damn if they got killed. They took their chances....they lost.
(19) seperate terrorist attacks occured on us interests abroad (Excluding Iraq and Afghanistan)during (8) years of GW Bush resulting in multiple US deaths and not a f-ucking word of critisizm was aimed at the imbecile over them.
GB-2940791
But the Obama Administration isn't watching them die while being videoed & refuse to send help. Big difference. Would you say the same if it were one of your relatives? What a calloused creep.
GB: I understand your position. Let me raise two points: 1) Afganistan was Obama's "good" war. 2) I nominate Susan Rice for Ambassador to Libya.
Serfdom - just keep it up, you are making the left look worse, and worse, and worse, and worse . . . . . .
DB..if only serfdom and uncle Biden could campaign together....we would have it made!
DB Akron - and every day you make the right wingers look as bad as they possibly can.

Why don't Obama have a relief rally in Hollywood. I am sure he can collect a lot of money from his Hollywood friends like he dose for his campaign.
Seeking,
Do you know how many people are turned off by starting a post off with "What a B@st@rd . . . or other vulgar term and then listing of half true accusations does to your credibility with peope?
My post was an about warning you about what you all are doing to yourselves. You have no idea how much I hate saying something negative about someone, but if it helps them great, if instead they double down on it, oh, well, they did it to themselves.
Evidently by your use of the word Bastard, you must like it a lot. Maybe because it describes you also. You should know that with DNA testing, you now stand a good chance of finding your daddy, then maybe you would not use the word to describe others......
DB Akron - apparently your reading comprehension is severely lacking. I didn't start off my post with "What a B@st@rd" or anything close to it. Perhaps if you had your posters correct you might not put off people who are trying to read your post. I said absolutely nothing vulgar in my post. Try again.
Obama/Biden 2012
@ Steve446003...Obama was in the oval office doing his goddamned JOB! Thanks for listening.
Obama is an epic failure!
12.1 million Americans are unemployed.
10.9 million Americans, have given up looking for work, or are underemployed.
19.9%, of all female military vets cannot find work.
2.3% fewer Americans are working today then when Obama became president.
There are fewer women working today then when Obama became president.
16% of all Black Americans, are out of work.
9.9% of al Hispanic Americans are out of work.
51% of all college grads cannot find a job.
Manufacturing in the US, is down by 1.2%, this year.
Median Household income is down by 8.2%, since 2009.
This quarter GDP grew by only, an anemic 2.0%.
Obama and fellow Democrats have not passed a budget, in four years. Violating US law.
Obama has added 5.6 trillion in new debt to our deficit.
Obama adds 4 billion in new debt to our deficit, each and every day.
1 in 6 Americans live in poverty.
48 million Americans receive food stamps.
A gallon of gas has doubled under Obama.
Obamacare, the ACA, adds 21 new taxes and fees to Americans.
Obama gave backdoor amnesty to illegal aliens, violating US Immigration law.
Obama's foreign policy has failed, he has lost, Libya, Egypt, Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Russia, China.
Our Consulate was attacked in Bengazi, Libya, and Obama did nothing, and four brave men died. And Obama has been lying about the attack ever since.
Serfdom,
Your post is mostly pathetic.
The desperation of the Obamabots is amazing. They seem it fit to make politics out of everything, even Romney trying to do what he can to help out. Face it, both Obama's and Romney's are hyperpolitical at this point. Obama certainly has a job to do and I would expect nothing less than him to take a break from the trail. Romney has done so as well.
However, we still have an election to handle on Nov 6th and this is an important one.
Actually, the point is that he can't 'help out,' because he's currently not involved in the government. He can only choose to inject himself into it in the attempt to gain politically or do the classy thing and step to the side for a few days and hope that that translates to people having a higher opinion of him.
We see which way Romney is going with it.
Michael...you wouldn't have a higher opinion of him no matter what he did. I think he is doing what he can to help. I see you are OK with Michelle Obama's camp sending out a fundraising email last night and B. Clinton & Joe Biden campaigning for Obama.
Actually, at one point, my opinion of him was just fine. When he was head of the Salt Lake games, I thought he was sort of an admirable guy. And as far as the rest of it goes, you really have no idea what my opinion on any of those things is, since I didn't bring any of that up. I wasn't even talking about campaigning while all of this is going on. I was talking about Romney trying to inject himself into the process of disaster relief, where he can do absolutely no good because he has absolutely no designated role, is not a first responder, has no responsibilities, can only get in the way, and has absolutely nothing salient to offer to the process.
Michael...Please tell me how collecting supplies, providing transportation for said supplies, and delivering them to the needed areas is going to hurt anyone? Did you have a problem with Bill Clinton going down to FL after Hurricane Andrew?
And if he was doing nothing all you libs would be playing "Where's Willard". give it a rest.
Bunch of liberals hating what Romney is doing, weird.
Michael - you clearly see through Romney's pathetic attempts to look like he is doing something worthwhile while he is simply put- campaigning. He is the same low life he is every day but thinks if he brings some food and supplies in they'll give him a pass. And, the ignorant will. It's truly sad.
Obama/Biden 2012
Maybe Romney should just let people die. I mean it works for Obama, as far as embassy folks go. Liberals like SeekingSanity are stupid low information Obama voters. Believing all that hopey changey crap.

ROMMNEY IS A DIRT BAG he has NO redeeming values as a human being. IT WAS A PHOTO OP thats all he doesn't care about those people period end of story. IF he cared about people he would not be wanting to cut taxes on wealthy increase defense spending but cut spending on social programs. HE is EVIL as is the entire republican party.
Four dead in Benghazi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Last night Michelle Obama's team sent a fundraising email out to supporters (I have no problem with it BTW)
Bill Clinton is off campaigning for Obama and so is Joe Biden.
Just stop it people with the faux outrage.
BrentAZ - Michelle Obama's team sent out a "fundraising" email asking supporters to give to the Red Cross to help the victims of Sandy.

So Mitt holds an event to collect supplies for the storm victims even though the Red Cross says it doesn't help to have "stuff"---it needs money. How self-serving of Mitt. All you Romney supporters should make donations this year---in order to balance his tax plan, the deduction for charitable contributions would be on the chopping block. Along with FEMA. That would help in a disaster.
The Red Cross runs one way and smaller charities run another. I am amazed at the pettiness of the Obamabots today.
DESPERATE.
Steeler Fan
Romney has a link, just like Obama to the Red Cross for donations.
The issue for the Red Cross is that they do not have the ability to ship goods these distances. Cash allows them to buy locally and use local trucks and equipment to deliver these. Romney apparently understands that because he has provided his campaign bus to deliver the goods. This storm was huge and local stores of bottled water, blankets and canned goods could have been compromised.
obama says: "Instead of giving to the relief efforts give to his campaign fund!
unoitall,
Wow, just like Obama in his request for people to send their birthday gifts and wedding gifts normally intended for others to him.
No more 4 44!
NOBAMA 2012!!!
Romney will probably take the "stuff" home for safe keeping.
You libs all criticize Mr. Romney for not paying more taxes--when there is no where on tax forms that allows you to voluntarily pay more taxes and that's why he makes such generous donations such as the one he is conducting now by putting his campaigning on hold so he can use his own resources that he worked hard for and paid for to provide relief supplies to the east coast. What did Obama do yesterday morning, he took AirForce 1 to Florida but when he realized he could not fill up the arena with people, he used the Hurrican as an excuse to fly AirForce 1 back to DC--two questions--How much did it cost the taxpayers and how much pollution was put out in the air by the plane's back and forth trip yesterday?
Lastly, the October jobs report should be released Friday, but Obama and his liberal media are trying to use the closure of Wall Street and the Hurricane as an excuse not to release that information. HOWEVER, here is the ticker, Andrea Mitchell from NBC already dropped the bomb that the report has already been prepared so no excuses B.O. unless you messed with the numbers, it is time to show us how much you have not done for this country. Remember what you said B.O., "I mean what I say," and also remember you said that if you "could not fix the economy, I should be a one term president." Guess what bubba--you made things worse.
Obama, "Stand Down!"
If the left wants to pay more in tax than they owe, let them. I prefer to spend my charitable funds the way I want. The libs are always great at doing charity with other peoples' money.
...and Obama has lined his fat cat green energy buddies pockets with other peoples money, only to have them file bankruptcy within months after they received out money.
Barb - he was told to fly back to Washington, because flash polling was saying he was taking a 7 point hit in favorability by not being in Washington to be seen as being involved in the crisis.
Actually, I am a "+1%er", meaning that I'm volunteering to have my taxes bumped up by 1% in order to retire my country's debt and leave a strong, prosperous America for your kids to inherit. (You're welcome.) Don't scoff and sneer until you run the numbers- if just 20% of American taxpayers signed on to this voluntary, no-strings-attached movement, I'm betting that we could pay down the national debt in a few years.
At the very least, it would do good for ALL Americans, not just the ones who are members of Mitt's church.
More than 40 states already make it possible to donate on their income tax forms. You can also write a check directly to the general fund.
You can see how many people are jumping on the bandwagon!
If 120 Million people each gave $500 dollars that only adds up to $60 Billion
No way in HELL that that little piddly amount will make a difference to the national debt.
That barely pays a month and a half of the interest on the money Obama borrowed from China!
...
Trotsky (appropriate): Knowing how much this government wastes every year of our tax dollars, why would anyone give them a penny more than the law requires? After all, they looted the Social Security Trust Fund, and let's not forget Solyndra et al.
All liberals who do not already voluntarily pay more in taxes than they are required to are hypocrites.
Pay up or shut up.
No more 4 44!
NOBAMA 2012!!!!!!!!!
Jatty: HAH HAH, I was wondering when somebody was going to catch on to that and call me on it! Actually, I'm not a Bolshevik (not bloodthirsty enough by half, I'm afraid); however, I am a big fan of Walt Kelly's "Pogo", whence I borrowed my handle.
Well, since we're talking to each other like grown-ups- the "+1%er" idea is more of a symbolic gesture to get the ball rolling on comprehensive tax reform- something that both parties pay lip service to, but neither can ever accomplish because the special interests have built-in so much inertia to the system as it is. By the way, Ticked, thank you for crunching the numbers on that.
Now just because I propose something that is at best a partial or even symbolic gesture, does that automatically mean that we should just reject it out of hand? And is it just THIS government, or do you think that maybe the preceding ones have made questionable uses of OUR money?
Trotsky: I am all in favor of comprehensive tax reform. However, I would not give these morons one dime more than the law says I must because they will waste it on cronyism and Obama is one of the biggest offenders.
most of his money goes to the mormon church so i totally discount it as the mormon church is one of the most hateful vile religions when it comes to LGTB issues and spent billions on defeating gay lesbian marriage so NO i do not care what he gives he is a vile human being who wants to enshrine doma into the constitution the man has NO MORALS.
DB AKRON has a brand new battery in his crystal ball ...he "knows" Obama was "told" to go back to DC.....
BS, DBA!!
!
Obviously the storm should take precedence here. But, the underlying issue that MOST American's have issue with is that obama LIED about Benghazi. HUGE COVER UP....we see through it obama. Only a matter of time before the rest of the media and your mindless followers do as well.
Exactly, his administration told the Navy Seals to "stand down" when they wanted to go rescue the Embassy employees and ambassador. The Seals disobeyed the orders, went to the embassy and saved over 30 lives, but unfortunately could not locate Ambassador Stevens. They headed back to the CIA annex, made repeated requests to the Obama administration for military help, and was denied on all occasions. In total 4 Americans died. Obama stated at the last debate that our military technology has improved dramatically since the days of bayonets and horses, which contradicts his administrations response that military help was hours away and would not have been able to save lives. The only help they got was from an armed Drone. By the way Prezo Bozo--Mr. Woods and Mr. Doherty were killed 7 hours after their repeated requests for help.
Obama, you need to "Stand Down!"
obama is a cowardly liar. Mr. Woods called it correctly as did the other generals and Lt. colonels.
9/11/2001, Cheney's Inside Job, was a "huge" cover-up. Benghazi, Libya was an unfortunate incident in which Republican budget cuts for State Department Security cost Americans their lives in service to their country in dangerous circumstances. Panetta has much to answer for in the delaying of reinforcement.
Paul - you're talking to people who don't care about the truth. They bend and twist it any way they can to put the blame for everything on President Obama. It's truly sad they are so perverted but it's the Republican way.
Obama/Biden 2012
Hello Seeking...how are you?
I do care about the truth. I am listening to Mr. Woods. And he was emotionally hurt by the response that obama and Clinton gave him over his son's death. He was even further hurt by the FACT that this tragic event was played out in real time in the situation room. How does that make him feel? Not angry...but he does want obama to come clean.
I've also listened to Mr. Woods. His main comment has been he doesn't want this to be used in the Presidential race yet Republicans still cling to it. Investigations are not done and, contrary to those thinking they are done quickly, a thorough investigation can take months. To try to make this political is wrong but the Republicans have been doing just that - in spite of all of the family's wishes.
And, I'm well thank you!
Obama/Biden 2012
@Seeking
Dam wright use it in the Presidential race. Any POTUS that lies to the American people about American life's
has no need being POTUS.
And I am a Dem. from the state of Maryland and my vote is for Romney!
Good to hear you are doing well.
I never said that though. Read my last sentence. he is NOT angry..but he does want the truth to come out. Implying he felt that he was lied to. I don't think he is trying to make it political. But, when he says that he was a coward for not coming clean on this...AND the generals and Lt. Colonels that were being interviewed with him agree??? What does that say. Political or not, there is a cover up.
SS,
Its not all the family and I am guessing the longer they put this off more family member's will come out and demand answers. I know I would in a heart beat.
Sean Smith mother wants answers, and now Charlie Woods and his family are publicly asking for answers.
HE DID NOT the data is NOT in yet your an idiot
Four dead in Benghazi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know, I sit here in Kentucky, with heat, hot water, gas at $2.99 a gallon, and have a solid teaching job in West Virginia and a part time teaching job in Kentucky. I teach the equivalent of two full time teaching positions plus an extra class. Every moment I get I do everything that I can to show my students how important it is to help others, but yet I can do very little knowing my family lives in the suburbs of Philadelphia right now. I feel helpless and quite depressed of which there is almost nothing I can do.
What are we doing to each other in this country. Please, just tell me what am I doing wrong that is not getting the idea of humanity across to others? Why is Romney even thinking of campaigning? I don't understand.
Dave...Mitt Romney is collecting supplies. Michelle Obama's camp sent a fundraising email out and Joe Biden and Bill Clinton are out campaigning for Obama.
GIVE ME A BREAK.
And Cocaine Clinton compared the deadly hurricane to Mr. Romney-classy.
Barb210 - "cocaine" Clinton? Oh yeah, you're certainly one to talk about class!
Obama/Biden 2012
Dave Ermold: "Please, just tell me what am I doing wrong that is not getting the idea of humanity across to others?"
You're actually one of the few people here today who is doing anything RIGHT with your post. There is absolutely no need to politicize this tragedy in any way, shape, or form today. Anyone who is doing ANYTHING to help should be commended, and anyone whose idea of "helping" is coming on here and taking cheap shots just to score a few last-minute political points obviously didn't live through the anxiety and fear and helplessness that so many of us on the East Coast did in the last 48 to 72 hours.
By the way, you didn't say which suburb your family is in, but I can say with extreme gratitude that my own small borough in Delaware County down near the airport was incredibly fortunate - my basement is dry and we never even lost power - and overall, compared to some of our friends and neighbors in New Jersey and New York and Delaware, we were truly blessed. Hope the same is true for wherever your family is.
By the way, in none of the 24/7 tv coverage I saw yesterday did I see anyone asking either the rescuers or the people being rescued what their political affiliation was before reaching out their hands to help or be helped.
I, for one, have no interest at all in discussing politics any further today.
Peace, and best of luck to your family.
I heard Barrack Hussein Obama today while driving home talking about the storm. While possibly not verbatim (word for word for you uneducated liberals), here is the general tone. "Through the dark storm we were able to see the brightness in America. I PERSONALLY spoke with mayors and governors all over our great land and conveyed to them that if they have any problems, or need anything at all, not to hesitate to call ME at the White House."
Wow, do you think Obama is attempting to use this storm for political gain? A mayor can call and get directly through to Barry and he will ride in on his white stallion to save the day!
Give me a break. Unfortunately, the incumbent usually gets a bump from natural disasters, do you think Barry was rubbing his hands together in anticipation for the past few days?
In times like this America needs the leadership of a President, and not a "Bully Of The Corporate Board Room." This is fact!
Progressive=Forward 11 said,
"In times like this America needs the leadership of a President"
Yeah... too bad we don't have one!!
It's time to turn the page on this failed presidency...
The middle class and your children/grandchildren can't afford 4 more!!
The GOP is running the most divisive, offensive and contentious election campaign as far as I can remember. I have voted in 11 presidential elections in the USA. I have never seen more unethical, seamy and profligate rhetoric used during a presidential election.
Now this infection has climbed on to the state and local election campaigns as well with additional prevarication of innumerable proportions.
No need to state the obvious and plain difference between President Obama and Romney. No one is that blind or deaf as not to understand the inexplicit message bracketed within the rhetoric: An inference easily accomplished by the majority. President Abraham Lincoln’s spirit is most likely filled with unendurable sorrow over this shameful deed.
I have been receiving postal mail and email from various unknown and mysterious sources and organizations. These communications instate lies and misrepresentations, which range from minor concerns to matters of the utmost importance for the people of the USA.
The point is to frighten the voters about the incumbent and thereby get the vote for the GOP’s candidate. Declaring misrepresentation such as: The end of Social Security, the end of Medicare. Cuts to social welfare programs to the indigent, families, children and the elderly.
Additionally, falsely predicting higher taxation for all, rules and regulations to restrain business, higher dependence on foreign energy sources and major decreases to the military budget, all patently false information.
The GOP’s most odious and malicious statements have been to claim that the incumbent is ruining America, destroying the American family and damaging the future of the USA.
Here is to all the media, organizations, individuals and various supporters of the GOP and their candidates. When the election is over, and if by some devious form of chicanery the GOP manages to marginally get their candidates jammed in to office, remember this: The end of the election process is not the end of the USA and its citizens. When the hammer starts to pound and the vise to tighten, there will be those who remember and refer to the events which led to the impending crisis and there will be retribution. After all this is the most glorious and gleaming United States of America.
Kettle...please meet the pot....pot...please meet Kettle.
We don't need to frighten the voters about this incumbent. He is sufficiently scary all on his own.
Joe, this election season has indeed been nasty. I will be truthfully be glad when it's over. But to say the GOP has been doing the mudslinging is just not true. I seem to recall an Obama commercial with Obama's voice saying, "I approve this message" where Romney was blamed for a woman's death due to cancer. It was fact-checked by an independent organization and it turned out that Romney has not killed anyone!
The fact of the matter is that Social Security and Medicare are in danger of becoming a thing of the past if these politicians can't keep their hands out of the coffers.
We live in a time of 24 hour news and 10 second sound bites. Both sides have made gaffes.
I am glad you brought up Social Security and Medicare. Both BENEFITS EARNED and PAID for during one's working years. It takes a huge amount of larceny and impudence to glom those funds.
Joe: then why did Obama just steal $700 billion from Medicare to pay for Obamacare?
Oops! Too late! Obama has already divided us into two camps: Americans and liberals/leeches.
No more 4 44!
NOBAMA 2012!!!
This was the first time I saw them this bad also. It took Obama over a month to respond to the ad's I saw. For people that didn't keep informed with what has been going on. They would think Romney's ads were true because it took so long to respond back. Was funny when Romney talked about Obama using nothing but bad ads. It was so many bad ads at once from Romney.
Barack Obama & Chris Christie = No BS - just concern and action on behalf of affected citizens in NJ and across our eastern states.
That's NOT acting - that's BEING President!
Citizens depend on government in times of crisis. Real leaders dismiss politics and deliver for their citizens - All 100% of them Red, Blue or Purple! A trickle down tax cut is surely no replacement for prepared and ready government disaster resources.
Thanks FEMA & Thanks Pres!
Well after the dismal performance of his administration in Libya, he has to over achieve with hurrican sandy in order to actually redeem himself some what.
I wonder if Ambassador Stevens depended on Obama.
Wow. Obama finally got one right. Of course, he had no choice.
No more 4 44!
NOBAMA 2012!!!
Barb210-hang on tight you are about to have a really wild and disappointing ride-see consumer confidence report, housing starts and price report, and unemployment report, all out today and yesterday.
I've been on an extremely bumpy road for about 3 years now and it is time to change rides.
Well, all you MittWitts and (R)Ayn Rand fans, this is a good opportunity for you to a.) witness the America we actually live in rolling into action at a time of national need, and b.) give some consideration to the kind of America Romney and Ryan think we should live in.
According to Romney, it is "immoral" for us to be providing disaster relief that we can't fund on a pay-as-you-go basis, although he has never once applied that same standard to government spending that directly benefits him and his. Read that again: It is immoral- his word- to provide sleeping bags, pure water, emergency medical care and hot meals for people displaced by this and other disasters, because it'll add to the national debt; but he's perfectly OK with jacking up military spending by another $2 trillion that we also don't have (and the generals and admirals have said they don't really need), leave the Bush tax cuts in place, and continue giving billions in subsidies to the Top 7 oil/energy companies even as they're banking record- shattering profits; that suits his sense of "morality" just fine.
I guess his church uses a different Holy Scripture than the rest of us- oops, that's right...
OK, on to Paul Ryan, the enthusiastic disciple of Ayn Rand... except he's really not mouthing off about her so much, is he, ever since AlterNet published excerpts from her works proving in her own words that his "favorite philosopher"- his words- was a militant atheist, a committed enemy of all organized religion (guess your Archbishop didn't much approve of that, eh, Paulie me lad?) and an outspoken supporter of abortion rights (a little hypocrisy there, or are you just not a careful reader?).
In a world like Ryan would like to build, run according to the principles of "Objectivism", nothing would ever be done except in self-interest or for profit; which would mean no more FEMA, no fire departments or police except what people could afford by voluntary contributions, no emergency utility crews leaping into action from every corner of the land and descending on the stricken area, there to work forty or sixty hours at a stretch (as I've done) until the power's back on, drinking water is flowing and the roads are open to bring in relief supplies and take the injured to hospital. No, in a Paul Ryan/Ayn Rand society, people struck by natural diasters arre FREE! Free to die in isolation, unless or until they can scrape up enough change to make it worthwhile for a totally self-interested society to come to their rescue.
All of the foregoing is based on the statements of the concerned parties- Romney, Ryan, and Rand. Together for a devestated and desolate America.
Mean while, Obama has Bill the registered sex offender Clinton and the village idiot Biden out stumping for him since he was dragged back to Washington to try and finally act like a President during a crisis. I think he's hoping that if he over does the the Hurricane Sandy gig people will forget about Libya. Never let a crisis go to waste is the Deemoncrat way!!!!
Where is Clinton registered as a sex offender? I think that you must be a congenital LIAR.
He is just a Clinton hater. Don't pay any attention to such an idiot. Wait until Hillary is elected in 2016. Then his head will explode.
After Hillary fell on the sword for Obamas @!$%# up in Libya, she won't get elected dog catcher in the future
hulksmash - Bill Clinton is NOT a registered sex offender. Why doesn't it surprise me that a Republican would post such a lie? We know - it's all you've got!
You probably can't stand the fact that if he could run again for President, he would easily beat any Republican!
Obama/Biden 2012
I don't think Billy would get the womens vote this time around. The fact that impeachment and censure are in his back ground would not help either. I really don't know if he is registered or not. I don't see you actually defending the village idiot though, Obama shoulda dumped that clown for a real V.P. it's cost him points having Joe around
Seeking: That comment and many of your others keep us laughing all day. Keep up the comedy show for a couple more weeks. You make your party look pathetic and show the low education level of those like you!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Romney/Ryan 2012 to bring back American values!
unoitall - your post - as do all of your posts says everything there is to say about you. None of it is flattering but it is all very accuate!
Obama/Biden 2012
Bill Clinton will always be a sex offender in the eyes of most good Americans. I know the girl was 21 but to most men she was a child.
?? A child really? From everything I read she wasn't pressured she was a willing participant.
Most men, who aren't retarded or over the hill, would understand that a 21 year old female in 1997, has very likely already been sexually active for a good 4 years or more. Wake rhe "F" up. Real life is passing you by. She stopped being a girl by 19 at the latest. His Cheney wasn't the first one she had ever sucked.
D Green,
She was a consenting adult.
It was not her first time going to the store to get bred.
"Obama fail" is a paid republican troll & should be banned!
Al Qaeda is alive, and Ambassador Cris Stevens is DEAD!
President Obama urged those under siege from Sandy to keep an eye on ready.gov for updates. Ooops.
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1012/83024.html?hp=l10
President Obama is in charge and directing the recovery of Sandy like a timely oiled machine. Pay attention Brownie and see how it to be done. If Mitt had his way all disaster relief would be privatized. Can you imagine Bain Capital being in charge of disaster relief. With the way Romney ran Bain all of the workers would have been fired and their retirement accounts in Mitt's Swiss bank account. Mitt is a twit.
I'm sure Ambassador Stevens appreciates Obama taking time out from campaigning and hanging with the hollywood elite to take care of hurricane sandy. Too little to late, he has blood on his hands and it won't go away.
Don't forget that all important interview with Pimp with a Limp that he also done.
Obama's Employment Czar, Jeff Inmelt, CEO, of GE, has sent about 28.000.00 American jobs, to China!
GE has paid no Federal tax, in years. Inmelt, helped Obama with all those shovel ready jobs. That were not shovel ready.
Gov. Christie thinks Obama is doing a great job regarding the storm and the recovery.
Yes, Obama is doing that....because it is in his political good to do so. When our men were pleading for help, he let them die and then lied to the American people because he would look politically bad. He is president with blood on his hands. Case closed. He only cares about what makes him look good.
Hate much, Jules? You must get all your news from Fox. You really are ignorant.
B White-519014 - Your opinion of my intelligence is of no value. You don't even know me. Because I think Obama is self-serving, I hate? Pretty shallow thinking abilities on your part.
WHY this White-Hispanic(as Obama has labeled me)will NOT vote for obama again....
Obama the promise BREAKER!! Equals a LIAR!!! BIG EMBARRASSMENT to the USA!!!
Obama’s promise that his healthcare proposals would “never be purchased with [a] tax increase on middle-class families.” The SUPREME COURT & JUSTICE DEPT say it is a TAX!!! .Attack on the middle Class! Taxation by misrepresentation---the LARGEST TAX in World History!!! Does he remove the tax part????....NO!!!
…….…NOW Obama wants to invade Syria and Iran!!!
..Mr. American Businessman..YOU DID NOT MAKE THAT!! It was stolen from the back of the worker---PURE MARXISM!!...this is PURE BS!!
…ANTI-American…tell it to Ford or Steve Jobs or the Mom& POP store on the corner>>>How is it that NON taxpayers built an Infrastructure??
…>>>Now BOZOhussen tells the UN that the 9/11 attacks on USA embassy’s were from a lame youtube video!!. While Over-the-HILl’ry and the Fed Security Depts. say it was a planned Al-Qaeda Islamic Terrorists… He tells the UN that NO where in the World should anyone be able to say anything against Islam or its profit( yes spelled that way on purpose~~). The Constitutional genius has forgotten the 1st Amendment!!.. TOtaLLY Un-American!!
,,>Latest News from Black Op experts say that the Seals killed in Benghazi were ‘lighting” a target for air support to strike, and in the process they exposed their position to the Muslim-Terrorists firing mortars at the USA Embassy ,which was Unarmed!!. That air support NEVER came. Shameful!!! The only reason the target was light-up and vis-à-vis the Seals were exposed, was so that Air support could hit the target, and thereby stop the attack on the Embassy. .For 7 hours the White House watched the attack by cameras in Drones overhead-- in real time..AND did nothing to help!! In fact, it would take the power of the White House to leave the Seals exposed and without Aid!!! These American Heroes bet their lives that such a situation would never occur!!! This is blood-boiling for any Freedom Loving American!! And especially for any VET!!! . And it spits in the face of all that is the Esprit-de-Corps that exists in the USA Armed Forces!! This goes beyond incompetence, it shows and Underlines Betrayal and Treachery!!!...Answers need to be given!! .No Executive Privilege---“Did I Do That??!!!”
Remember these?
THE OBAMA CHRONICLES:
“I promise 100% transparency in my administration.”.
“I promise NO NEW TAXES on a family making less than $250K a year.”.
“I will allow 5 days of public comment before I sign any bills.”.
“I will remove earmarks from PORK projects before I sign any bill.”.
“I will end Income Tax for seniors making less than $50K a year.”.
"I will bring ALL of our troops home within ONE year."
“I’ll put the Health Care negotiations on CSPAN so everyone can see who is at the table!”.
“I’ll have no lobbyists in my administration."
"I'll close Guantanamo."
"I'll resign if I don't cut the deficit in half by the end of four years."
"I'll unite the people of this great country."
“The TROOPS will be home for CHRISTMAS.” WHY ARE MORE LEAVING EVERYDAY???? AND DYING every day…
NOW Obama invokes Executive Privilege( as a Sen. called it’s use a RUSE!) for Holder on GUN SMUGGLING and killing US Agent Brain Terry!!! That only applies if Obama was part of it!! Obama & Holder should be on trial for giving Machine Guns to the Mexican Drug cartels!!
BETTER KNOWN AS LIES.
Fool me once shame on YOU!
Fool me twice shame on ME!
Even Joe BIDEN has endorsed ROMNEY for Prez!!!!
BozoHussan=Chicago MOB politics=NBC=GE= no taxes from the bought and paid for cronies ==twist every crises toward Pravda PressPROPAGANDA!!
$$$$16 Trillion in Debt….that is 12 zeros… the population of USA is 320 Million,,6 zeros===$$$ 50 Thousand for every Man&Woman&Child!!
Yet Reid –Senate & Obama-White House control do not want to balance the Budget!! These numbers do nor count the obamaDoNOTcare act that is the Largest TAX in World history…No ONE can afford it!!! There is only one reason that these numbers do NOT worry you…you think that you are Entitled to free ride and you will not have to pay!!! . Sober up America!!!
Our fearless leader kills NASA and makes the USA astronauts ride on the back of a Russkie bus, and now the Russian bus is in trouble!!
Christie think Barry doing good by getting out of the way......
Four dead in Benghazi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i
Breaking News. Obama lead in Ohio increases to 600,000 due to early voting. Obama in a landslide.
We'll seeeeeeee........
Source?
Once again, the votes are not counted till the polls close on election night. There is no way to know how the early voters actually voted. Guess you have a hard time understanding that concept.
How can you count votes BEFORE the polls close? If there something Ohio does differently than anywhere else in the US?

NOBAMA 2012!!!
markin--is on here everyday changing numbers and spewing crap. He is clueless!
Are you telling the truth? I thought it was saying in lots of polls that Romney is ahead?
Republicans- So uneducated on the issues that theyd allow a fraud of a canidate to garner thier support. No intellect and no conviction. For craps sake you fools voted for George (Howdy Doodie) Bush! That alone should disqualify you from ever voting again.
Yet you ask us to support an inept community organizer and habitual liar to a second term?
Johnny3621820 - You guys voted in Obama without knowing anything about him. He was never vetted by the media; he wasn't voted in as Sentator - he got that position by default. In his book, he touts the fact that he was a screw off in school - yet, somehow, he attended an ivy league school (which, of course, he won't release any transcripts). He obviously doesn't understand economics and the best he can say is "Yes, we can". Pretty lame. But, you voted him into office. This man cannot take responsibility for ANYTHING unless it makes him look good. It's always someone else's fault. Wow - that's leadership all right.....
jules4nd - you clearly have no facts but gladly post your fantasies. President Obama was vetted more than any President in modern time. And, he most certainly WAS voted in as a Senator - he did NOT get the job by default. He was a "screw up" through part of high school then got his act together. He was an exemplary student in college even heading Harvard Law Review - a rare honor for anyone.
I realize it is hard for you, but try to post at least SOME facts instead of the fantasies your hatred is based on.
Obama/Biden 2012
A community organizer that partners with a CONVICTED LIAR & sex abuser... Bill Clinton
Steve - a convicted liar - WOW - that would also describe most of the Republican Party - especially Romney and Ryan! Sex abuser - not really - Monica was a very willing partner so - no sex abuse.
