You are spot on.
Obama is a puppet for a radical left wing joint venture designed to cripple and destroy the USA power and influence.
He handlers must be stopped NOW.

I felt the same as you, but looked at it with an open mind. Now, especially with Ryan on board, I feel better about it. Honestly, better than the McCain campaign. Use your logic, research and learn more. Hope that helps.

I feel better about it too.  What I have to do at this point, is watch what they say and see if they really mean what they're trying to convince us they think.  If they do, I may join you at some point.  Is Romey better than McCain?  Yes.  In my opinion McCain was a sell-out lock stock and barrel.  It wasn't beneath him to join our most promenent enemies on adventures.  I dispise the man, and his daughter is an extension of him, walking precisely in his political footsteps.

Having said that, you can be a hell of a lot better than McCain and still be a despicable candidate from our side of the isle.  That doesn't mean that I am operating with a closed mind.  I'm always willing to listen to new information.  Romney's pick of Ryan impresses me.  I'm not convinced Ryan is the total package, but he's certain got some talents that are impressive.  It spoke very well of Romney to pick him.  These are things I picked up on, and an example of my willingness to assess them reasonably.

These two work well together.  They're on the cusp of operating as a first rate stand up comedy team.  If they went that route, I think they could impress folks with information, a great demeanor (not angry), and simply unravel Obama until he's standing in public nude.

When we've peeled back a few more layers, we'll know more.

Bush disgusted me. But the worst of Bush is still better than the best of obama.  FFFFUUUBBBOOOO!!!!

If you'll look at the graphic on the right for a moment, I think you'll pick up on my opinion of Bush. It is better than Obama, but it's not as good as others.  In all honestly, I'd lighten him up a bit about like McCain if I were to do it over.  I'd lighten up the McCain much more too though, close to the Clinton tint.

Yes, Obama is terrible.  That still doesn't mean that I think Romey isn't.  I'm going to have to be convinced more than I am right now, that he is capable of not screwing our nation over.  Not only that, he must convince me he plans on moving the nation way back to the right.  That means eliminating government programs.

Is he capable of that?  We'll see.  I'm not playing softball with these guys any longer.  We're grown-ups here, and I want frankness and honesty about getting this nation back to the general direction of Reagan, and even then less government.

I liked what I saw today.  It was a good start.

Hell!! I ain’t gonna give up without a fight for my grandkids sake. IT’S ROMNEY ALL THE WAY BABY! I’d rather have a man WHO loves America and lifts up her banner than those evil SCUMS from HELL reigning as lords in our WH. I HATE THEM WITH A PASSION and I’ll do whatever needs to be done to get RnR elected! We are at a crossroad, it’s do or die and I ain’t giving up without a serious fight...HELL NO, NO WAY! Tomorrow is prayer and fasting for America! God help us win this race!

There's a pretty good chance that you're going to hate what I'm going to say, so get set.

How are your grand-kids going to be served, if we install another president in there that screws up things so badly by the end of his second term, that we get another Obama or worse?  In 2000, we were convinced that Gore was so bad, we couldn't survive him either.  Okay, so the vast majority of people here backed Bush long before the primaries.  You couldn't get them to listen AT ALL.  They had to have Bush.  Well they got him.  It was a rather strident group too.  They defended every single thing he did.  How did that serve us?  There was no chance whatsoever for an effective unified loyal oppostion.  We were at each other's throats a number of times, as he ignored some folks and pushed through more big-government programs.  Boy were we called names for opposing that.

And while you may not realize it, we're setting up for an identical posture this time.  "Oh we have to support him.  He's icky, but he's better than Obama.  He may want to pass legislation.  He may want to run again.  He needs to be seen as a powerful figurehead."  I spend eight years trying to explain what giving any president carte blanche could result in.  Did the Bush folks listen?  No.  And now, what it ultimately resulted in, is denied by many folks here.  They are still trying to pass that guy off as even better than Reagan.  Yes, I have had that one slung at me a number of times here.

We are not honest with ourselves.  We glom on to candidates and grant them the same kind of free pass, the Left grants it's people like Obama.  We hate it when they do it.  We think it's swell when we do it.  It isn't.

I don't want Obama in there.  I think it's despicable that we don't even know for sure where he was born?  If he was born here, did he renounce his citizenshp to attend school in Malaysia?  Did he register back in the United States as a foreign student?  Will we ever know?

So what we do, is we sign on to the worst possible candidate as it relates to Conservatism, and allow ourselves to be triangulated into voting for him or else.

Folks, we are being gamed to the tenth power.

I am going to give it more thought.  I will never again sign on to a guy that is going to hand off a political atmosphere so screwed up, that an Obama can get elected.  I don't want the blame, and I don't want Conservatism to get the blame.

I didn't set up the situation that garnered us Obama.  I was led kicking and screaming along with the rest of you.  I was ignored, avoided, and proven right over time.  You're just going to have to be patient this time.

I agree with quite a bit of what you said. And then I remember how we got a man so unqualified for the presidency, we don’t even know if he’s a citizen.

Our side was discredited. We ran a complete loon.

I’m sorry if I’m not relishing the idea of another man who will install Leftist programs in my name.

What exactly does repeal and replace mean to you.

It means national Romneycare to me.

Am I going to put my name on that?

Folks, I am very sorry, but I’m not certain that I am.

Great. I’m glad for the strong showing, and appreciate the folks back there coming out in support.

I know this sounds contradictory coupled with what I have said on this thread, but I truly don’t want to see Obama elected again.

Why couldn’t the primary voters have given us someone worthy of voting for?

Left is Romney today in WI. The other one is the half empty room Obamarama spoke in.

Yep, the original “the handwriting is on the wall”.

Good catch.

Great photo.

One of the reasons Truman thought that he would win the election was the crowds that showed up at his train stops. The polls all showed that he would lose. Well....There is that famous photo with Truman holding up that newspaper on the day after the election!

This election will be won or lost on enthusiasm. Here in my state I simply do NOT see the stickers and lawn signs for Obama that I saw in 2008. So far I have seen**ONE** bumper sticker! ONE !

Obama hasn't got the enthusiasm he needs to get out the Marxist vote ( I refuse to call them Democrats. It is time we called them what they are!)

Daniel Chapter 5.

The source of "knees knocking in fear" phrase also.

From 536 BC, on the night the Persians and Medes captured Babylon.

If I remember correctly, they diverted the river, and walked in under the walls.

Enemies always find a weakness. That’s why I am always speaking out about sleep-walking into trouble.

I wasn’t aware of the knees knocking part of it. It’s been about fifty years since I read about it.

You remember correctly, FRiend.

While Belshazzar partied hearty, and the handwriting appeared on the wall, the Medes and the Persians dammed up the river that flowed through the middle of Babylon under its massive walls.

The Medes and the Persians marched in on the riverbed and took over Babylon.

Belshazzar’s knees knocked in fear, because in the midst of the unrestrained debauchery,in which some of the sacred vessels captured from the Temple of Solomon almost 70 years before were used, a man’s disembodied hand appeared and wrote on the wall: Mene, mene, tekel, upharsin.

Then he called in 86 year old Daniel to decipher the handwriting on the wall. Daniel was even offered a third of the kingdom.

Daniel interpreted the meaning of the words to Belshazzar, and that night, Belshazzar was killed.

History changed that night. The feared and powerful Babylonian Empire ended, and the reign of the Persians and the Medes began. Twi hundred years later, Alexander the Great and the Greeks would succeed them as the ruling empire of the ancient world.

Eventually, under the protection of ths new empire, Nehemiah was allowed to go back and to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem and the Temple(although it was only a shadow of it’s former glory under Solomon).

The Jews alone among all of the ancient peoples who were captured by empires and enslaved were allowed to go back to their homeland and to rebuild their cities.

God had a plan and a purpose, and He used even heathen rulers to execute it.

"So Obama is pretty much on his own and is going to get very tired."

Zer0 has cruised through his tenure as President, with 102 rounds of golf, 61 vacation days and continuous campaign funding events. When the campaign heats up, he will really feel the pressure and be to his limits of fatigue. That is not a good prospect for such an underachiever like Zer0. That is a recipe for tempers flaming up and words shooting out that the Teleprompter did not intend. When the American gets his fill of him, they will decide to give Zer0 a permanent vacation in November.

Joe, maybe I'm obtuse, but can you explain the meaning or significance of your Romney "poster" with the poppy seeds (insects?) all over his face, ears and inside his mouth?

Thanks,

Leni
