give me a break.

the only people who would vote for MORE OF THAT are those who are in desperate times, or in need of a government handout of some sort. this election proves that the economy is even worse than we have been told, even with all those statistic "modifications" that keep occurring.

we understand what happened.
Keep telling yourself that.
I've never asked for a handout in my life.

so you are a government worker?

because, if that isn't the case, i still can't imagine logically why you would vote for more of all that.

Or they just didn't see the republicans as a viable alternative maybe?

here's something i learned early on in life.

if something isn't working, you don't do more of it.

ron paul called it, and he's right. (as usual)

are you saying that romney is bush in disguise?

i didn't know that.

different candidate-different policies.

for the record, we had 6 years of a republican congress and then 4 years of a democratic congress, and 2 years of a democratic senate/president and republican house and things don't seem to be getting any better.

i admit that bush was a lousy republican, but we certainly know that obama is no JFK.

Oh that's some rich irony right there, after you assumed that everyone who voted for Obama wants a handout. In fact, I've seen you make slap-dash assumptions about liberals literally dozens and dozens of times. Take that log out of your eye before pointing out the speck of dust in your neighbor's eye...

In any case, I don't believe you. You are so biased that I just don't think that you're being truthful; but, good luck with your pipe-dream of saving the economy by selling the naming rights for public areas. *laughs*

I had previously been a DeToqueville Society member of the United Way, donating fairly substantial sums. I cancelled my donations yesterday. I refuse to provide monetary support to people who destroyed the nation. I guess they can get all thier money from Obama.

I had two scholarships to the local Catholic High School and one to our state university- cancelled. To hell with Obama supporters.
You keep opening these anti-american threads. You used to be one of the most patriotic Americans I knew on here. What happened? It was just one lost election.
