That's funny - I have stories for days that are proof of the phenomenon that liberals are jealous of my family's hard earned wealth, and think that we somehow became wealthy only by taking from others and by being greedy!

Sorry but mine are actually based in truth and not random ramblings in some sort of game of "one ups" or "I can top that"

And I hope not.
Sitting around waiting for any president to pull jobs out of his butt and rescue you is not likely to have a good outcome for a majority of people.

He's the one voting for Obama because he says things are better than ever for him, sounds more like he is the one who's values revolve around the almighty dollar. Maybe his friends care more for the rest of the country and less about themselves.

Financially I'm making more than ever before too, but it sure isn't because of anything Obama has done. I know according to him I didn't do anything to earn or deserve more, it's all because of big brother.

Actually Obama and his policies have doubled it, inspite of 1 war ending.
Has Obama cut the Military our biggest expense? Not as yet.
I do agree with his deportation of illegals convicted of crimes. The only problem is that he ignores the many committing ID fraud and tax evasion.
He also ignores gov waste.
He has also made some very bad investments with our money. How much did he invest in solar power of his own money before becoming President?
My point is his practices and policies have only created more debt.
Getting involved in Libya's civil war???? Now sniffing around in Syria??
I hate to admit it but Romney was right about 1 thing in particular in the first debate.
If we need to borrow the money to pay for it it better be a do or die neccesity.
He took credit for the gas industry today.. All started before him. He doesnt own that.
He has no issue blamming Bush for bad things and taking credit for things he didnt do. In regards to gas and oil his EPA has been described as obstructionist to the point of fasifying evidence.

LOL I know just a drop in the bucket. Too bad the bucket is the size of lake erie and its over flowing.
The actual price was $14.29 per person per day, and included breakfast and rental fees for the workshop space and conference rooms which is darn cheap for DC.

I get your point....just sayin...

Riiiight...if you're not a millionaire and stupid enough to vote for Romney, you're incapable of reason. Conservatives aren't bright people, they're lead from the nose by FOX News and Limbaugh, note theres no liberal equivalent of Rush to deliver talking points to the left. Best insult you can come up with is that I'm a spaceman or cowardly mocking me and not quoting me like afoigrokerkok

So it is Bush's fault for the failed stimulus plus Obama wants to do another and probably another after that.

I'm sure our economy would've been wonderful with John "bomb Iran" McCain at the helm. How did conservatives get the belief that the economy was robust and strong before Obama and he singlehandedly wrecked it? FOX News and Rush do some serious Inception-style memory killing on the righties

Well, look at what polls and exit polls say about who is planning to vote for who/who voted for who in past elections.

Romney Edges Obama in Battle for Middle-Income Voters

House Exit Polls - Election Results 2010 - The New York Times (notice the Democrats did their best among high school dropouts and the Republicans did their best among college graduates, though Democrats narrowly won those with education beyond a Bachelor's degree; as far as income - notice the Democrats did the best among those making less than $30,000 per year, those most likely to be on welfare)

BTW - there are plenty of liberals who deliver talking points.

It must absolutely suck to hate everyone who dares to disagree with you politically.
