Anyone really looking forward to the 2012 presidential election debates? I am thinking that this will be probably the most entertaining debates ever, as Obama will have to explain himself on national television with another person actually pointing out his abject failures and insane policy measures. Obama had no record in the previous debates. It was all hope and change. Now he will have to explain his failed policies and say why the unemployment rate is still high, the economy in the tank, the gulf a disaster, and debt skyrocketing. It should be entertaining!!

It would be very entertaining if Obama got to debate Pee Wee Herman.

Not many know it but Pee Wee is one of the most rabid, right wing people out there. He thinks the Tea Party are a bunch of liberal sell-outs and that Glen Beck is a soft shoe, communist pu$$y who won't tell it like it ought to be.

Emotion and bluster is what liberals thrive on.


In the 2012 debates, there will be the FACTS of Obama's terrible record to debate-

1. 10% unemployment
2. Debt should be at $16 trillion by then
3. Still annual deficits of $1 trillion
4. Obamacare
5. Looting $500 billion from medicare to help pay for Obamacare
6. higher personal income taxes
7. Higher corportate taxes
8. More loss of manufacturing jobs
9. The nations greatest environmental disaster- botched
10. Communists and radicals in the white house staff
11. The Sestak crime
12. Opposing the Arizona law (which most Americans support)

And we are not even to 2012 yet! Think of all the crazy stuff that Obama will do until then!

The problem with this is if Obama doesn't fail, all he has to do is point out how the Republicans said no to everything he proposed while simultaneously hoping he would fail. Keep in mind, there are a lot of people such as myself who believe Obama is doing a good job.

and you can continue to beleive that, but remember, no matter how much the Republicans say "NO" the Democrats have total control. If you pay attention at all to what the people seem to be saying, it is "enough already" at this stage, if the election was tomorrow Obama would get slaughtered, but it isn't tomorrow and 2 plus years can change things completely.

No way he'd get slaughtered. Not with an 80 percent approval rating within his own party and a consistent 45-50 percent approval rating in the country. If Obama ran against someone today, I do believe the Republican might pick up a few states Obama won but not nearly enough to win.

The only people that seem to be saying "enough already" are on forums like these.

Democrats have a big tent. They are very inclusive. They also don't always agree on issues but the party accepts the differences and works with it. Republicans have purified their ranks of Rinos and candidates who lack Republican purity. Right now the republican lock step is NO!, to anything. Politically it's smart but morally it's a disaster.
