presidential debate

[Bayz101]

I'm not a republican, and i'm not a democrat.

2008 - Hope and Change.
2012 - Change is our only Hope.

But i'm voting Romney. I don't care for either, but something needs to happen.

US Public Debt when Obama was elected to office: 10 Trillion Dollars.
US Public Debt now: 16 Trillion Dollars.



We're going FORWARD alright. In DEBT.

I'm not a political argument kind of guy, and I certainly won't get all worked up and argue over candidates online for hours at a time, but I believe we need a change in administration. I guarantee, that if Obama is reelected, this country will go to hell in four years.

Alright. I gotta go before Tony shoots me in the face.

now - graduated, working full-time, officially in the middle class. federal employee (which makes me scared shitless of paul ryan having any say in anything)

leaning obama. not trying pick a fight with the pro-reps or pro-dems, just saying i'm voting for who's in my best interest. if romney picked anyone else but paul ryan maybe it'd swing me his way (since I'm also a stock trader on the side, some of romney's plans benefit me more in some areas)

My drunk post for the night.
Don't give obama much credit for your success, you did that on your own. Just so happens you have a gov job, living off the gov titt.

I've been out off school for damn near thirty years and countless aps, interviews and a few jobs later, never get to comfy or too loyal to an employer. Been there done that and been burned by it, it's gonna happen sooner or later no matter where your at. Your young and are going to figure that out.

For me I was lucky enough to own my own business after all these years and I never forgot what I learned or how I felt or was treated as an employee. I treat my employees as how I would want to be treated.

The uncertainty puts a bind on the future for not just me but my employees. Where I deal mostly with the medical field now obamacare really ****s that up and we get hammered in both holes, so to speak, business wise and personally.
And you say your afraid of ryan, biden doesn't set policy why would it be any different?
Bottom line is do you believe in the American dream or living off the government tit.

That certainly worked out well

And apparently someone at the paper got their feelings hurt

The paper was at the center of a controversy over the White House making Obama available to the paper only off the record. A blog post by the paper's news editor slamming the White House for its media handling forced the Obama campaign to release the transcript of the coversation earlier this week.

Read this egocentric blog post by an editor of a backwater newspaper that could not believe it took so long for Obama to troll for an endorsement, agreed to an off the record convversation, followed by a demand the conversation then be on then record, and consider the possibility more than the merits motivated this endorsemnt

It’s important that I emphasize the White House’s decision won’t play a factor in our board’s final endorsement decision. That would be petty and ridiculous

Not putting all my eggs in one basket, i'm planning on having multiple sources of income by the time i retire. I'm a couple years away from my investments earning me more money than my job does, so who knows, money wise, romney's stance of less taxes for capital gains might pay off for me. I'm up over 300% in stock market gains in the last 2 years.

I would say I'm living the american Aream right now. Isn't it all about having the opportunity to get an education and a successful career? I believe I'm doing that right now. Best of luck in your situation, I'm sure we all have our reasons for voting.

I'm not sure what you're getting at with sucking government tit, as if I'm trying to abuse the system. I got where I am working my ass off, you don't get a 3.8 GPA from slacking

Joe Biden during the debates: "We were never told we needed more security in Benghazi."
Hillary Clinton a few days before the debate: "I take full responsibility for Benghazi."
Obama during the debates: "I take full responsibility for what happened in Benghazi."
Obama now: "We didn't deny any requests for help in Benghazi."
Panetta now: "We didn't know exactly what was going on, and didn't want to send our military into harms way."

Either someone here is lying, or extremely incompetent...or both.

Someone was dragged from a golf course and parked in a chair off to the side while the real people dealt with OBL.

That illustrates this "administration". Everything else follows the same template.

Remember the Gulf oil disaster? "We were on it from day one".

Why would the Bengazi cluster @#$% be any different? Its who they are. Its who their party is.

I thought we were supposed to trust in the free market to handle that and avoid the dead hand of government regulation?
