Obama sucks, Romney sucks.

So don't try to attack me saying I watch fox news or am a republican or any such thing. Only come after me with some type of substance.

Obama's actions have greatly hurt the economy. Namely Obamacare and endless Federal Govt spending.

Do you dispute this? If so, why do you believe either will help the economy?

Why does Romney suck? Well because I see no reason that he won't come up with just as stupid schemes to "support" the economy as Obama has done. After all Romney wrote the precursor to Obama care. Also he is a fervent supporter of imperialism which will surely hurt the pocketbooks of every American.

Fact: Romney created jobs in the private sector

Fiction: Barack Obama NEVER created jobs in the private sector

So, tell me again, why should we entertain the blathering of the Hypocritcal Left on this issue?

(From the Post)

Being listed as the CEO and the Chairman of the board doesn't mean he actually had anything to do with running the place?? What kind of ****ing **** is that??

If Obama was listed somewhere as the Chairman of the board and CEO of some socialist organization do you think the Post or anybody on the right or anybody at all would ever make the same argument?
I am glad to see you FINALLY admit that the death of the Border Patrol agent was Obama's responsibility.

And the deficit and debt and the unemployment numbers and EVERYTHING else that has happened in America since he took the oath of office.

After all, he is the President.

I'm pretty confident, that Romney, lost more jobs, than he created in the private sector. Furthermore, hhm, didn't some of his GOP buddies a few months ago, foam at the mouth about how his state (even though it's not private sector, but still) ranked 47th in job creation?

Since SOME won't follow a link and read for themselves....this is what the OFICIAL State Investigation prompted by the Democrats found:


The report included these findings of fact, adopted unanimously by the Commission, made up of representatives of both parties:
“The Respondent was employed in Massachusetts from 1975 until 1999.”
“On February 11, 1999, the Respondent went to Utah to take the position of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for the Salt Lake Organizing Committee of the 2002 Winter Olympic Games, a non-profit organization burdened by scandal and fiscal crisis.”
“On or about February 11, 1999, the Respondent became an employee of the Salt Lake Organizing Committee for a fixed term of three years. While so employed, the Respondent worked, on average, over 12 hours per day, 6 days per week.”
The report also stated: “The Respondent remained actively employed at Bain Capital until January 1, 1999, at which time he left to take the position of President and Chief Executive Officer of the Salt Lake Organizing Committee for the 2002 Winter Olympic Games.”
The report showed that Romney remained on the board of three companies, two of which had Bain connections — Staples and LifeLike Co. The report said he returned to Massachusetts “to attend meetings at Staples,” but does not mention that he attended any meetings at Bain, even as it provides a long list of social events that brought him back to Massachusetts. One would think that if Romney was trying to prove continued links to Massachusetts, he would have emphasized he kept doing work for Bain.
In other words, an official state investigation concluded that Romney no longer worked at Bain as of early 1999, and also was working “12 hours a day, six days a week” on the Olympics from 1999 to 2002. That also would seem to trump the SEC filings.
Bauer, in an email, provided this statement:
“Every 1934 Act filing is subject to the requirement that it be truthful, and are subject to potential civil and criminal charges. For example, Form 13D is intended to alert investors that a person or persons has a 5% position and what their intentions may be. Whether or not Mitt Romney will still active in Bain would be without doubt a material fact that an investor would want to know. No securities lawyer would say otherwise. Civil charges can be solely for the purpose of setting the record straight, while criminal referral by the SEC to the Department of Justice is typically for cases where someone knowingly and intentionally filed a false 13D. Whether a case is civil or criminal depends on the facts developed through investigation.”

What jobs has Obama "created" (that didn't get paid for with taxpayer funds)?

What JOB has Obama ever held that he wasn't appointed to by some political party? Where did he get the money to pay for all of his "prestigious" education? Who paid for that?

Whatever, GOP sheep who loves to vote against his/her own interests. If you advertise yourself and your company as a pioneer in outsourcing, you really think that that company created more American jobs than it lost?
Ok, I'm pretty confident, he created a lot jobs, as Bain's hatchet man, in OTHER COUNTRIES!

You don't think Obama's policies have led to outsourcing of jobs to other countries?

Wake up, both Obama and Romney are crooks.
