Half the country doesn't pay income tax. Many of those also get welfare benefits of some kind or another. This is a huge segment of the population by design and it is logical for them to want to keep the gravy train running...even if they are destroying our country in the process.

That has nothing to do why his sentence is so bad, it literally doesn't even have any meaning.

Most of the same people i do know. Are highly educated individuals, live in great areas, beautiful home, nice cars, and own their own businesess. Are very smart people, or they would never have gotten on their own where they are today.

None of them Dem or Repub, will vote for Obama, not a one and half of these did the first time around.

4 more years of sheer utter hell, who needs it. Gave him a chance, he is not any different and any unusual then any past President. His many weaknesses blame on others, does get old you know. Economy failing how long now, has he gotten us out, does he have the answers, or does he blame others for his own ignorant mistakes.
Business does not like him at all. Savings what savings these days, no matter how much you make, hard to save. And Obama has no problem with the spending habits. Nothing new and different and inviting about him, infact he has put a division on people, instead of bringing people together.

Sane people will not go there.

I had high hopes for the guy, but he's a weak indecisive leader and his wife has that typical bad attitude you see in certain parts of the city.
The man has done zero, time to move on.
I'll root for Cain maybe.
I don't want Obama re-elected, I want Huntsman for president. But unfortunately, the GOP voters don't want a rational, smart candidate.

There is only ONE Republican candidate--Ron Paul. All the others are Big Government liberal Democrats, just like Obama.

Romney, who has been presented to us as the "front runner" no matter how much we reject him, is the INVENTOR of Obamacare in Massachusetts (and only by using massive Federal subsidies is that program still hanging on at the state level) . He's the Governor of Massachusetts, for heaven's sake--a state where liberal Democrats are the only voices known to exist. Calling yourself a Republican in Massachusetts is like a career Washington Congressman claiming to be "struggling working class"--nice try to get votes, but a total lie.

Were the Founding Fathers "insane" for founding the nation on small government and self reliance? Are ANY of us in the working class better off now that we send most of our income to government to help the "needy"? All that seems to have accomplished after decades of Big Government is to create huge numbers of "needy"--and increasingly few taxpayers to pay for them all. And frankly, the "needy" have far better lives than those of us who work 80 hours a week to pay for both them and us.

There is nothing more insane than voting for ANY of the mainstream politicians of both parties, since ONLY Ron Paul will stop the idiotic, endless foreign wars that bankrupted us and accomplished nothing but encouraging terrorism.

Funny how well our nation did under those silly, "outdated" ideas of small government and spending tax money inside America, to benefit our own economy--and how fast we fell into economic ruin when Big Government took over everything and made tax slaves of the working class.

Something brainmelting in the water in NH, apparently.

Rick Perry a "big govt liberal Democrat?????"

Ron Paul would turn the US into Afghanistan, where whoever has the biggest gun wins.
