[Nachum]

How we got into the mess we're in...

[vg0va3]

Last line with her facial expression:

“I think I’m not as informed as I thought I was, but I still wouldn’t change my vote 8->”

I hope she has lost her insurance, her job and her right to vote...twit!

[Bullish]

Really sad.

[AlexW]

As I have posted many times, it is due to Marxist media and Marxist education in America. The Commies know that those are the golden keys to take a society.

[SpaceBar]

The Obama, symbol “O”, should be adopted as the metric unit of stupidity. The “Biden” being the imperial (ft-lb-sec) equivalent.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

It would be mildly interesting to interview people a little more involved in the business world. Just as a reference point; it’s water under the bridge now. I remember this video from back then and it’s sadder to watch now. And makes me angrier. What a complete waste of everything we’ve been through, and if it was for nothing, it would be a lot better. Tremendous damage has been done by this regime.

[Arthur McGowan]

These people are exactly the kind of people Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, et al., designed government schools to turn out. Government schools are a total success. If you think they are a failure, you are still asleep.

[Dallas59]

Ugh.

[I still care]

I’d love to see a video made now with all these people. I’ll bet half of them lost their jobs and healthcare.

[JSteff]

How we got here was not some young skull full of mush (as Rush says) but we go here because 4 MILLION conservative voters who voted against him in 2008 did not even vote in 2012.

That is the sad but true fact. 4 million voters would have handed O and the left an embarrassing defeat if they would have voted for Mitt. It would have taken some serious nose holding but we would NOT have the country we now have or the prospect of A SCOTUS that will make the left (men and women) all have wet dreams when Obama leaves office.

Obama was NOT the big prize for the left, SCOTUS CONTROL WAS, and they will have it. We can only sit back and hope and pray for the best in 2016. But it was 4 million who VOTED FOR OBAMA by not voting against him in 2012.

And every time you fill your gas tank thank those unnamed 4 million non voters for the extra money you pay. So they cost us not just having to live with Obama but 20 cents a gallon to one dollar a gallon every time we pump gas.

Kids should not vote, it is big peoples work... but their votes counted. Will they do it again in 2016?
Oh and read my tag line.

[freerepublicchat]

And yet we allow media companies all the accounting and tax privileges that real industries enjoy.

Maybe Republicans need to start talking about the need for Hollywood to pay it's fair share...

[freerepublicchat]

My question is: why aren't more conservatives writing stories, making movies, and providing news?

What is it about media that is unappealing to them? Is it the idea that such work is unimportant and they should go into some other industry?

[Netz]

“Tremendous damage has been done by this regime”

At this point into Obama’s 2nd term, more damage has been done to American (and the West's)power and prestige than all the damage inflicted by James Earl Carter combined.
The enormity and scope of this administration’s folly and ignorance is being seen everyday now and there's far worse to come in the near and mid-term future.

It is dangerous to be an ally of the USA right now. From the Ukraine to Israel, the American hug is one of uncertainty, betrayal and confusion.

[Arthur McGowan]

Of course, the vast majority of the morons who vote Democrat had no idea what they were voting for. Obama was nurtured and raised up to terminate the U.S.

There was a Saudi/Communist program to accomplish this. I wonder how many other young black men were nurtured and mentored in the same way, but ultimately did not make the cut.

While the Supreme Court is a prize, I think Obama is going to pull the plug in some major way—maybe not even waiting for the 2014 elections. He could destroy the currency and the banking system unilaterally, and there are many other unilateral actions he could take to end the U.S. I am certain he will “pull the plug” in some manner before his term is up.

[Catmom]

Now I know why it took bombing Germany into the stone ages to convince her people that voting Hitler into office had been a bad idea.

[MaxMax]

Some inside are saying June is when the dollar takes the turn. Land dealers.

[SoFloFreeper]

The infiltration of churches—Protestant and Roman Catholic—of leftists and the continued lax of Biblically principled living among true Christians (I was among them) is to blame too.

When good men do nothing, evil reigns.

[rlmorel]

Stunning.

Truth of the matter is, Liberals in general and Obama supporters in particular don't have enough brain cells to rub together to make a difference if they listen or don't listen.

If you really, REALLY want to see the depth of the typical Obama voter (if you can stomach it) watch this film Nachum is referring to, John Ziegler's "Media Malpractice: How Obama got Elected and Palin was Targeted".

You can watch it at: HERE

The video itself is good, but the real meat of it, why the mechanics of what the liberal media did is played out in one of the features of the documentary.

They went to a line of voters, and interviewed a bunch of self-identified Obama voters waiting to go in.

They asked:

What party currently controls congress?
I don't know
Republicans

McCain

McCain

Which candidate won their first election by getting all of their opponents kicked off the ballot?
I don't know. That sounds like something Sarah Palin would do, but...I don't know.
Sarah Palin?
Oh my God. I don't know. Who? (Ziegler: Obama.) Are you serious? Wow!
Huh. Sara Palin?
Oooohhhh. Was that McCain?
I don't know. I don't have a record of that.

Hmmmm. Uh, that probably had to be McCain.

Which candidate said that Obama would be tested in his first six months by an international crisis?
I don't know

Don't know that one.
Which, ah, eh, uh, I don't know.

Which candidate said that his policies would bankrupt the coal industry and make energy prices skyrocket?
Uh, I don't know.
Maybe Biden, he has a way of putting his foot in his mouth. (eh heeehehheeeheeeheee)

I heard that. I haven't really looked into that one, but it did make headlines.(Ziegler: Did you find that troubling?) Uhh...I don't have a lot of trust in the media to know where that was coming from.
McCain
McCain
McCain

Which candidate said that the government should redistribute the wealth?
I don't know
(Ziegler: So you agree that the government should redistribute the wealth?) Yeah.

Redistribute the wealth? I like it. From what I know about it...which might not even be the right thing, I like it.
To redistribute wealth? I don't know, it sounds like a good thing, but....heheheheheheheheheh

What do you think of Bill Ayers?
I don't know. I don't know who he is.
I don't too much know anything about him.
Bill Ayers? I don't know.
A washed up terrorist.
I don't know Bill Ayers.
No, I don't know him.
Yes.....but.....I....don't know the details. (Ziegler: Where do you get most of your information?) NPR...and...PBS

Where do you get most of your information?
Mostly from the news medium. TV, CNN...uhhh...Bill Maher is a good one.
I don't watch a lot of media. Yeah.
Um, I don't have a TV, so I read the New York Times, but...BBC, I guess, if I watch TV, CNN. (Ziegler: Do you watch MSNBC?) Yeah, it's pretty cool. I like...John Stewart, heheheh...(Ziegler: You get your news from Jon Stewart sometimes?) Yeah...the Colbert Report....

I think I'm not as informed as I thought I was. Umm...but I still don't think I would change my vote.

Note: If you can't tell, I thought of all of them, "Erika" had the best opportunity to see the truth someday, and she had the funniest responses. There was a tie between two I disliked the most, and who were the most pretentious snotty liberal kool-aid drinkers..."Janan" and "Adarsha". The rest of them were just dumb, ignorant Obama voters.

“When good men do nothing, evil reigns.”

Specifically, when good men don’t have children; demographically, this doesn’t look good...

[who knows what evil?]

90 MILLION eligible voters sat out in 2008 and again in 2012...who are these voters? Why isn't any effort made to reach them?

Many wouldn't vote for Romney because they were worried about their eternal security being compromised. I don't blame them; I blame the GOP...100%. Open primaries that allow Dems to choose our candidates is a major problem, but it isn't even being addressed.
