That's just stupid. It's as dumb as believeing that when Obama mentioned "his Muslim religion" in that interview he was admitting he was Muslim.

My discussion of what Obama thinks is right is not an endorsement that everything he thinks is right actually is. Your inability to even remember the post you were responding to when you asked the question is not a reflection on my attention span.

That one's entirely on you.

I'd say tht both parties have abandoned their people. There was always a large percentage of moderates on both sides, however this is no longer the case. The DNC has been hijacked by progressives and socialists, while the GOP has been co-opted by theocrats. This why the percentage of independants has been growing. I also consider myself an independant btw.

Wouldn't Romney actually be the closest thing to a moderate conservative? He's a flip-flopper, but might be the only candidate that will try to appease both liberals and conservatives. This country needs some serious uniting after Obama's dismal term.

I'm sure your undying and unquestioned support for Barack Obama is much appreciated.
Russian devil???


But you Republicans adore and worship and believe every word of Pravda!

You alll said so last week!!!

You believed something bad about Obama when it came from a Devil newspaper????

Only a dupe or a fool would give a pass to a politician who is so obviously dishonest.

Then, if you have ever voted even once in your life, you are a dupe or a fool.

You know, I can proudly say I have never vote for a politician who openly announced on a microphone he intended to lie. I stand by my statement that only a fool or a dupe would do so.
