@Tonto;

Cheat to win? Here's an "Approved by Obama" campaign message. It seems like there's some twisted "truths" going on here regarding Obama's concern for coal miners and the coal industry.

Here is the campaign message which was "approved by Obama" concerning coal workers in Ohio.

Uncle Moe, I'm convinced that your arguments are so compelling that "they" will immediately end the fed and the wars on your recommendation so that "they" can pull you into the national; conversation. Come on, you already know this. "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing," so why force me to repeat it? Keep up the good work.
And for Tom C: If you're really a true libertarian at heart and think it's the answer for our country, how about getting a few libertarian's on the local, regional, and state ballots before wasting your vote on Gary Johnson. As I told Uncle Moe, whom you are congratulating, the only thing keeping the people you detest in power is you and Moe doing what you are doing...nothing!
Voting for Johnson at this time is like not voting at all and that's a vote for the "status quo," an idea which you seem to be adamantly opposed to but which you are knowingly or unknowingly supporting.

Uncle Moe

11:13 am on Saturday, October 20, 2012

Paul, I am not "doing nothing". I have attended almost all of the "end the fed" rallies and have continuously advocated against Bush, and Robamney's destructive policies. I have never particpated in the rigged stock market, and instead buy Silver and Gold to help hurt JPMorgan / not be affected by inflation. I will vote for Johnson in November, even though I know he won't win, just to make a statement. Romney and Obama are like choosing between Cancer and AIDS, Our government is not our government, we're ruled by the foreign banking cartel and Bilderberg / CFR/ Bohemian Club and the Freemasons. Look around you, these are the same people who staged the 9/11 false flag attacks and the James Holmes shooting. We need to expose these cowards for who they really are!

Wow, you're really deep into the conspiracy theories. Look, I probably agree with some of your sentiments but while you are casting your vote for essentially nobody, I will logically deduce who will bring us closer to the ideal of the representative government that our forefathers dreamed about and vote for that person. I am absolutely sure, unless you can convince me otherwise, that a vote for Gary Johnson, since he cannot win, would probably accomplish moving us further away from the idea I desire for my children and grandchildren.
BTW, winning a presidential election is quite an accomplishment and by no means inexpensive or to be approached lightly so, in the mean time, who are your candidates for local, regional, and state elected offices that might actually have more effect on our lives than who is president?
Finally, if you would so kindly choose to participate in such an exercise, would you please identify who you would have voted for in the election of 1800 and why.

Why weren't we hearing that Obama also was invested in the Cayman's and in China and has a larger pension than Romney? Too inconvenient? Too objective? MSM asleep at the wheel of the Obama Government Motors' Volt?
And speaking about Delphi, as the article does, what of Obama's role in sinking the Delphi workers? Will we ever learn what was at stake for Obama with GM? GM is solvent now, right, thanks to Obama? How much have the taxpayers lost by being forced to buy GM stock at near $35? Why has the Fed refused to resell that stock to GM at under $25?
Will we ever learn how Obama's friends have profited from all the shenanigans of Obama? Can you say Warren Buffet? Give us a break, Spooner.

Here is the thing Paul... on a previous post you ask how I would get out economy working on all cylinders or to that effect... I had mentioned innovation. You can rail on about GM or Green energy companies that fail, but the thing is THAT is just how we get back our economy.
If you haven't read, China is on the verge of a major economic downturn. People aren't spending. WHY? for the same reason we aren't... we just don't have the disposible income. Brazil, the Philippines, India and others have cut into China's profit margin. So their model of low wage high production is on its last leg... So we need to step in and take the lead on technology, future energies. for lack of a better word forward thinking... what is the next big thing has to be American. Do you see my point... we can get lost is the way things are now... we need to think differently to steal Apple's credo.

Patrick, I'm not sure where I asked how to get the economy going...that said...
There might be a way to use government funds to stir activity, although I would not favor that technique, but pouring $90 billion dollars into companies that were headed up by crony Obama operatives, including many that went bankrupt, was not a good idea for anyone. The government should not play favorites. Besides, given the present circumstances of our economy and the dependence on energy to power that economy, the fact is that we have proven resources right here that do not require $90 billion in start-up costs.
Here's one I would love to see you explain, Patrick; we have known about our energy issues and dependence on foreign oil since before the seventies. When we ended up in gas lines and getting fuel on odd and even days back then it was said that we would not be held captive to oil from the middle ease and our sworn enemies, as it turns out, any longer. Then we did nothing. So, every time there's a little crisis we repeat the same line about becoming energy independent but then we have the wet blanket thrown over it that says, "It will take 10 years to bring any of that new product to market" and that ends it. Question, and this might take a little higher math, how many 10-year periods have gone by since we came to the realization that we needed to be energy independent in the seventies. 'Nuff said.

This kind of destruction and disregard for your fellow citizens will create karma that follows one. Profits at the price of people is money that will haunt those profiting in the short term far longer than one can possibly imagine. A global economy is a myth. People live in real places, and we are bankrupting our own real country where we really do live. This election vote for someone and something you believe in, and who believes in you as an American citizen. Wish China well, but champion yourself and your own people first. Anything else will fail you, your fellow Americans, your country, and ultimately, your world. Stand for something worth living for. Vote Libertarian for one election. Gary Johnson, Libertarian candidate for President, wants to change tax laws so that American business has an incentive to remain and return to the USA. Start living for freedom, right here in your own country. Vote Libertarian for one election. Live free.

Romney made $50 mil in Italy by a Controversial Telephone Co. Purchase Since Then Italy Doesn't Like Romney! Per Bloomberg News:That’s because Bain Capital, under Romney as chief executive officer, made about $1 billion in a leveraged buyout 12 years ago that remains controversial in Italy to this day. Bain was part of a group that bought a telephone-directory company from the Italian government and then sold it about two years later, at the peak of the technology bubble, for about 25 times what it paid.

No matter what I say or tell you, you are going to vote for the individual you like if you are a registered voter. By now, everyone, other than those living in a cave or those that are illiterate know the issues and what each candidate stands for. I don’t know about you but I am selfish! Selfish in that I vote for the party that can do the best for me and reflect my values. I am neither rich nor poor but part of the working class and I know that if Mister Romney is elected I will pay dearly. If you believe things are bad now just wait, this man will destroy the lifestyle you and I know. Romney will impact on you, your parents as well as your children in a way you will not be able to recover. If you own a home or condo, say goodbye to the mortgage interest deduction if you have children say goodbye to the child care tax credit, and look to see National Health Insurance eliminated, women’s issues and more.

The other thing is you're wrong when you write "everyone, other than those living in a cave or those that are illiterate know the issues and what each candidate stands for." This is absolute bunk. I wish it were so but it's not. Furthermore, there are fewer people working now after 4 years of Obama than when he took office and going all the way back to the seventies if I recollect correctly. So, tell me how good it is now and how bad it will get under Romney, one more time. And then, for good measure, throw in how it is that you know that?

Like I said OBAMA has nothing to run on so let's attack Mitt.

I'd rather focus on the FAILURES OF OBAMA. He is POTUS and deserves to be FIRED!!!

Are you better off? NO WAY but the CHINESE SURE ARE!!!

Polls decisively show that Americans say they are not better off now than they were four years ago. The same, however, cannot be said for Chinese citizens. A recent poll by the Pew Research Center finds that 70% of Chinese people say their finances are better off now than they were five years ago.

Indeed, the Obama years have been a boon to China economically. Specifically, China has benefited from President Obama’s weakness on leveling the trade deficit and cracking down on Chinese currency manipulation.

First, Mr. Obama has failed to make good on his promises to equalize the Chinese-American trade deficit. Chinese exports to America are up and climbing. In September, Chinese exports leapt another 5.5% from the previous year. Why does that matter? Jobs. From 2001 to 2011, America's trade deficit with China killed or displaced over 2.7 million U.S. jobs, 76.9 percent of which came from manufacturing. And 662,100 of those jobs were lost from 2008 to 2011—even though Chinese imports dropped when Mr. Obama entered office in 2009.

You make a big election about small things.” Every day, his campaign is making it smaller and smaller, and the President’s poll numbers keep dropping and dropping.

Winners act like winners. Losers act like losers. And according to members of the same media elite who have spent months protecting him, Barack Obama is now looking like a loser in the closing days of his reelection campaign. This morning, a few members of the elite "Gang of 500," including Time's Mark Halperin, The National Journal's Ron Fournier, ABC's Terry Moran, and Politico's Roger Simon, publicly voiced their disapproval of a campaign they describe as "belittling," "not confident," "peevish" and worse:

WHY is OBAMA campaigning when we have 25 million unemployed and millions more will be let go unless he comes up with a plan in the next 30 days.

According to the study of the economic impact of the 2011 Budget Control Act on the Defense Department and other federal agencies, the budget-cutting tool known as sequestration would reduce the nation’s gross domestic product by $215 billion, decrease personal earnings of the workforce by $109.4 billion, and cost the economy 2.14 million jobs — with the most severe impact coming in 2013 in what is shaping up to be a continually weak economy. Sequestration will trigger automatic cuts on Jan. 2 unless Congress can agree on an alternative savings plan.

The projections, compiled by George Mason University economist Stephen Fuller, were unveiled at a Capitol Hill news conference attended by two senators and two big-city mayors, with the lawmakers’ expressing opposing views on the key question of whether new tax revenues are needed in crafting a long-term and bipartisan deficit-reduction plan.

Spending cuts of $56.7 billion for defense “would result in the loss of 325,693 direct jobs, including 48,147 civilian DoD employees,” the report said. A loss of $59 billion for non-Defense agencies could cost 420,529 jobs — with an estimated 229,116 jobs, or 54.5 percent of these direct job losses, consisting of federal workers.

WEAKNESS is one of OBAMA'S biggest traits from bowing to foreign leaders to not meeting with our allies to using excuses to shun his accountability for American deaths.

Our mounting $16.2 TRILLION debt and weak economic growth show our enemies just how weak we are becoming. Our resources are dried up paying $1 trillion for welfare which does nothing to promote jobs, economic growth or security.

His PROPOSED MILITARY CUTS will weaken us further around the globe.

They will INCREASE unemployment by hundreds of thousands of people

This will add even more to the 25 million looking for work

The lost taxes and spending from these jobs will cripple even more communities - MANY IN NJ.

OBAMA supports GM and UNIONS but not our military and defense contractors like LOCKHEED who is a big NJ employer.

Why does OBAMA disrespect our MILITARY so much?

are there services "NOT OPTIMAL" either?

OBAMA told PUTIN he would have flexibility - to do WHAT With his massive amounts of debt and proposed military cuts, what flexibility does he have?

WE ARE LESS SAFE THANKS TO OBAMA

The people at Deloitte know a few things about accounting and debt...listen up.

http://www.deloitte.com/view/en_US/us/press/Press-Releases/64a45f11a9d77310VgnVCM2000001b56f00aRCRD.htm

National debt is accruing at a rate of roughly $4 billion per day, the equivalent of roughly $750 per U.S. household per month

The debt could adversely impact American competitiveness: The U.S. is on track to spend at least $4.2 trillion in interest payments over the next decade, a massive amount of money that could otherwise be used to make investments that could boost America’s competitiveness. If recent discussions surrounding the debt ceiling are any indication of future behavior, the areas of government most closely connected to competitiveness – non-defense discretionary spending on R&D, infrastructure, education and training – are expected to be the biggest targets for continued cuts.

"During an election year, one of the few things both the Democratic and Republican Presidential candidates seem to agree on is that our growing debt burden is reaching a crisis point,” says Robin Lineberger, CEO Federal Government Services, Deloitte LLP

That's WEIRD because

In 2008 - OBAMA said the debt was unpatriotic and irresponsible but he added $7 Trillion to it

Here's the clock in case you need to get more upset

US DEBT IS HIGHER THAN US GDP

This just in.....NATIONAL DEBT HITS $16.2 TRILLION. TREASURY CONFIRMS 4th STRAIGHT $1.5 TRILLION ANNUAL BUDGET DEFICIT. OBAMA SAYS "IT'S NO BIG DEAL"

Obama blames a 2008 youtube video for all of the attacks on him about irresponsible and unpatriotic debts. White House Press Lapdog Jay Carney had this to say "President Obama remains to this day committed to spending money we don't have and burdening our children and grandchildren. The President knows that Medicare and Social Security are the big drivers of the deficit but when can he do but put this burden on the future generations? He's not going to take away a benefit and risk losing someone's vote. The best option is to stay the course no matter how much damage it will do to the American people and economy. Furthermore, the video cannot be authenticated. We think it was an impersonator linked to IRAN. Trust me, Obama does not lie to win elections."

Tune in this Sunday on the weekend talk shows to see Treasury Secretary Timmy "Bailout King" Geitner explain how this video is responsible for these awful and untrue attacks on President Obama's debt stance. He will also apologize again for not paying his taxes and for bailing out AIG, Fannie and Freddie at great expense to taxpayers.

Please watch the video that started it all.

We now have more people in the U.S.on Medicare and Medicaid than are working. How long do you think that can go on? We now have 17 million more people on food stamps than when Obama took office. Obama has redefined "needy". He relaxed food stamp requirements so more people can collect. An applicant used to have to "spend down" their more disposable luxury assets like a late model luxury car. Not anymore. Now the application is based only on income. If you can hide your income, you can collect food stamps. A person entering this country legally used to be barred from collecting any kind of welfare for a while. They needed to prove they can support themselves or have a sponsor to support them. Obama is looking to wave that requirement. Obama is working with foreign governments so that those country's nationals who come here are better informed as to what they may be entitled to while they are here. That doesn't sound so bad, right? Read between the lines. Many of our program restrictions can be easily overcome if someone understands the "requirements". More people getting free stuff = votes for Obama.

So, Romney has gone on record as stating he wants to lower the overall rate to bring business back to the U.S. but to get rid of the loopholes so the corporations will actually pay his proposed rate of 25%.
Obama wants to raise the rates without addressing the loopholes as evidenced by his buddy Jeff Immelt whom he made his Jobs Czar and whose corporation (GE) tweaked those loopholes so effectively that GE paid no taxes on $5 billion dollars of domestic profit (on Obama's watch, BTW).

The fact is the female staffers in the Obama White House make less than the males who do the same work - men make 71k, women make 60k. Romney, on the other hand not only went out of his way to recruit and hire women, but paid them equally.
As for the much touted 'Lilly Leadbetter Act', this is not an equal pay act. Leadbetter filed a complaint that she was not being paid equally to her make counterparts and the courts told her she had missed the filing deadline. So she goes all the way to the Supreme Court and who upheld the lower courts that, according to the rules, she had missed the filing deadline. So Obamas congress draws up the 'Fair Pay Act' which did not insure fair and equal pay all it did was extend the filing deadline for fair pay lawsuits. But even if you have an extended deadline, if you still miss it, you are back where Lilly was in the first place.

While Government Motors owes us money back, they are not paying income taxes on their profits

THANKS OBAMA

DETROIT, May 4 (UPI) -- A spokesman for U.S. automaker General Motors said the company paid no federal income tax for 2011 despite earnings of $13 billion since 2009.

"We did not pay federal income tax last year," said GM spokesman Jim Cain.

The Detroit News reported Friday GM earned profits of $1 billion in January through March but may not have a federal tax bill to pay "for many more years."

The tax-free years are the result of GM's stint in bankruptcy in 2009.

The newspaper reported the Treasury Department gave GM permission to use the $18 billion in losses from the pre-bankruptcy company, the so-called old GM, to cancel out any profits it has made since it emerged from bankruptcy.

In essence, GM would have to make $1 billion for 18 consecutive quarters before the federal government, which bailed out the company, sees a nickel in income tax from GM.

@stuffin. You can always tell a den - they use words like 'liar', 'sociopath, 'BS'. For the record, Romney did live very modestly when he married, which was before he graduated college, and while he was going to law school. He made money as an executive - a lot of money - but are you saying you want to be poor?
As for the stock market - who here has seen his or her life improved because of a rise in the stock market. The trading on the stock market is one thing but real life economy is another. Has the rise in the stock market added jobs, lowered the price of gas and utilities, stopped the rise in foreclosures, lowered property taxes? If thousands of shares of Facebook or Apple stock are traded in a day and the stock market spikes, does that mean that the price of milk, or shoes, or electric is going to drop for the family who is making do with 2 or 3 part time jobs because they can't find work?

I agree with you 100% Eleanor. Who cares how much $$ he has??!! Are some of us so jealous we can't see the forest for the trees? If all the Obama supporters can go on is "he killed bin laden" or "women rights" or "Romney's $$" it is a sad time for Americans. There are sooo many bigger issues to think about...the millions of people without jobs (me being one of those!), the mess up at the US Embassy recently, the prices of gas and oil, the prices of food, Hey..the overall economy itself! Look, Obama had his chance and didn't do a darn thing to get this country back on its feet the last four years. Time for a change! No? Maybe Romney couldn't do better, but I'm willing to take that chance on someone new instead of going with the losing team.

Mittens can't relate to most Americans who don't have car elevators and other luxuries. He relates to hedge-fund millionaires and others who have Swiss bank accounts, not ordinary people. His policies reflect that.

Why do the Repubs want to give the military $2 billion more than they asked for -- to thank their defense-contractor campaign contributors and start another war? Why do they want to burden the middle class with high taxes while coddling their wealthy cronies with even more tax breaks? With today's Bush tax breaks, why aren't the rich "job creators" creating jobs? Why are the Repubs in Congress obstructing Obama's plans to improve the nation? Why are they trampling women's rights? America doesn't want to go back to the 1950s. We want to move forward. Mitt can go back to his homes in Malibu, Maine and the Cayman Islands.

Just sour grapes because they lost the last election. None of these politicians are perfect, and that includes Obama, BUT, and it is a big BUT...why can't so many see that the Republicans have done everything they can to screw Obama, regardless of whether it's a great plan or not.... they've faught him all the way.

Mitt was born with a silver foot in his mouth -- had a life of privilege and Grey Poupon. Obama worked his way up, and wants to give every American that chance.

Why doesn't former prosecutor Christie go after Corzine if those crazy accusations are true? And free phones? Why doesn't Mitt bring up those wild claims about Obama if they're not just right-wing-nut claims? Why don't you Mitt-wits check the facts on Snopes, Politifact or other REPUTABLE independent websites before you go off half-cocked?

The facts support the president, and so does a majority of RATIONAL voters. Bin Laden is dead, GM is alive, the economy is recovering (despite Repub obstructionists in Congress), gas prices are going down, and Bush's 2 wars are finally ending!

Mitt wants to end mortgage and charity deductions for the middle class, but give more tax breaks to his millionaire pals. He wants to de-regulate the banksters and Wall St. crooks. Car elevators? We don't want Bush's third term under His Royal Majesty Mitt!

I have noticed a new pattern with the Obamanators here. Ignore the facts of their idol and throw out their own talking points. Still waiting to see something original and accurate though. Wonder what the final death toll from "Fast and Furious" will be, hundreds, thousands? I guess this was Obama's way of keeping the illegals out of here by arming the drug cartels to shoot them before they can cross the border. Understanding cause and effect never was the lib's strong point anyway.Ask those with "underwater" mortgages about that.

Agreed. It's amazing how a person cannot grasp ECONOMICS 101. When you cut taxes—and not just for the rich like these Obama slurpers keep crying about—but for EVERYONE, the economy flourishes.

It frees up money for small business to invest into their own company...that means increased productivity and JOBS. The more people working, the more people PAYING TAXES, and increased government revenue.

But it's useless arguing with these idiots. Just let them drink the Kool-aid. This election is going to be a landslide for Romney. MARK MY WORDS.

Also, this is funny but SAD—

It was just released that the Obama campaign has spent over $900M and is IN THE RED now for $22M. The Obama campaign just took out a loan for $15M from Bank Of America. His own campaign has a deficit and has to BORROW...LOL...unbelievable.

Everything this guy is involved goes into debt or bankruptcy (see also his Green Energy FAILURES/BANKRUPTCIES on the taxpayer dime: Solyndra ($535M), Beacon Power ($43M), A123 Systems ($280M), Johnson Controls ($300M), Evergreen Solar ($25M), Fisker Automotive ($529M), SunPower ($1.2 BILLION), First Solar ($1.46 BILLION), etc.)

By contrast, Romney still has over $80M in his campaign war chest. That's how you effectively manage money. America IS a business.

MORE DISRESPECT
FOR OUR MEN AND WOMEN IN UNIFORM

Victims of the Nov. 2009 Ft. Hood shooting are being denied benefits commensurate with combat injuries because the Obama administration refuses to label the attack an act of terrorism.

Instead, the shooting Maj. Nidal Hasan carried out after screaming "Allahu Akbar" it is still being labeled "workplace violence."

The difference between labeling the incident "workplace violence" and "terrorism" is not only the rightful recognition 13 of our troops deserve for being killed in service to their country on Nov. 5, 2009, but also ongoing benefits that would help survivors pay for the physical therapy, and other medical and psychological treatments that might be necessary to a full recovery.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry has openly stated that the shooting, which took place in his state, was an act of terrorism and that the president such recognize it as such. He said, "President Obama's refusal to call it an act of terror is a shining example of this administration's devotion to political correctness over the defense of our men and women in uniform."

But OBAMA can give out OBAMA phones and LOSE BILLIONS on phony GREEN ENERGY INVESTMENTS
