Vote on this week's election questions below and make sure to come back every Tuesday to see how everyone voted -- and to receive a new batch of questions worth pondering. It's a great time to have an opinion. So, dive right in to our 2012 Election poll.
who could still vote for this despot?! our nation is in horrible shape - worst than ever and he just gave 1.5 BILLION dollars of our tax money to terrorist, the muslim brotherhood. this man is truly the worst president ever. if you are thinking of voting for this man, please stop and do some research and stop letting hollywood and the mainstream media tell you who to vote for. my husband has worked since he was 15 yet he was laid off months ago and has yet to get another job. many others are also out of work and it is not getting better under obama. he has had his chance and he blew it - big time. stop voting for color and vote for the best man for the job which is NOT obama!
Hi Betty, I'm sorry to hear your hsband is out of work and hope things change for you. I'm in the same boat, my business is completely dependent on the real estate industry and things are not good for me either. That aside and given the current economic conditions I honestly don't see Obama as the worst, I might say Bush should not be exempt from your rage including congress and the senate. We as a people need to unite our efforts to turn things around. I'm infuriated when I hear romney or santorum comparing themselves to Reagan, just doesn't fit, he was a uniter! they are running on a divisive platform. In my opinion, the continued challenge we are faced with is a by-product of the "just say no" position the reps have taken from the begining of his term and this even with concessions that have caused internal conflict in his party. Since Ron was president, there has been an exodus of american jobs and off-shore interests driven by greed. In my opinion if you throw in with the republican candidates I'm afraid we will get more of what put us here. Just my opinion and read of things. Regards and good luck, Ed
I really think obummer needs to get a life. Debt is way too far put of control, he thinks America wants that crap of a health care bill. Hes trying to raise our taxes because he doesnt want to create a budget that works. He doesn't know crap when it comes to forign policies, he's out of touch with the voter. He blames every screwup of everyone except where it should be. It was his fault appointing the guy that got our credit rating lowered. He's the reason gas prices spiked do high, because he can't keep his mouth shut about how hes going to further restrict oil production. If he wins this next election it'll be the great depression all over again
Sadly I do ... those who call themselves Conservatives are still splitting the party by insisting on following the status quo. When dealing with the devil they know and the devil they don't historically the American voter will choose the one they know. We can see this in the polls as the Obama is still ahead.
His whole plot and scheme and his regime is coming unraveled. The higher he piles on the BS the deeper he digs himself into a hole and can't dig his way out. Pride comes before destruction and that egomaniac has a lot of pride. As they say, "the bigger they are the harder they fall."

2. Obamacare: challenged by 28 States as unconstitutional, subject of a Supreme Court hearing in March.

He is wasting money we don't have, granting the office special powers he was never meant to hold, he is bullying everyone that is supposed to keep him in line, he is a liar, he is destroying the Constitution, he is bad for America and needs to go.

PROTIP: actual facts > political cartoons, photoshopped Jpegs, kool-aid drenched talking points, etc (hint, hint, many posters here)
Romney-bot's latest is how Obama spent too much time at Harvard (Conservative talking point #113: education bad! Makes you egghead!), even though he spent more time there. Santorum called Obama a "snob" even though he was at various law schools-- the leaders are almost ivy school educated, but they don't want their constituents to be ejumacated, it keeps them in line better.
Unfortunately – Yes, the Republicans are running an Obama Light Liberal republican who is the poster child of the out of touch rich guy. Mitt Romney can’t beat Obama, and to tell you the truth, I would also say that Santorum and Gingrich would fare worse.
Yeah, you really are desperate.Under obama's admin, I've seen this Country go downhill fast. Other countries see it, why can't you? When you dems wake up, it's going to be too damn late. Wonder who you gonna blame then.
You're too funny to be taken serious. But since you believe you know it all, why is it that liberals always have a chip on their shoulder? I haven't read a post yet from a liberal who sees the world the way it really is. Read the newspaper sometime - not one that comes with cartoons.
Its looking pretty good for him right now, I mean Mitt Romney...really? Could they have picked a candidate with higher unfavorable ratings short of Sarah Palin ? I don't think so,
Sure, and because I can see the moon from my back porch I'm qualified to be an astronaut. That's the logic and thought process of Sarah Palin...yeah she's a genius alright...no doubt about it.
She attended what four, or was it five colleges to complete her BA in Communications in just six years? Meanwhile the president graduated magna cum laude from one of the most prestigious schools in the world.
The only glimmer of intelligence from that woman is her ability to fleece her sycophantic supporters into providing for her and her family the extravagant lifestyle that she has become accustomed to. She ran with that cash cow and milked her fifteen minutes of fame for all it was worth. She's a good businesswomen but a terrible politician and political pundit, she's too divisive and has no credible ideas or solutions only critiques of the president who beat her and old man McCain in the last election.
Problem is that you and other spread untrue slanderous rumors..she never said she could see Russia from her house...and in case you didn't know, which is more then likely, Alaska was owned by Russia..and another thing you obviously do not know is how BO even got into Harvard..and magna cum laude is not gotten by just geniuses which he is most certainly is not..he cannot talk without a teleprompter for Christs sake..all it means is with great honor...Latin honors are used for undergraduate college degrees only, although they sometimes appear in high schools and at the graduate level. There is no universal standard for Latin honors. That means that a magna cum laude degree can mean different things, depending on the institution which awarded it...it means a student worked hard to graduate...nothing more...and he is the absolute worst politician there ever was...
Barack Obama graduated from Harvard Law School Magna Cum Laude, which means top 10% by grade in his class. Grading is done blindly (without names, only numbers) at HLS. That's the top ten % at one of the most prestigious law schools in the country. Below are a few quotes about the president from a couple of his professors from Harvard who had him as a student.
But the senator was still outstanding in his own right—“brilliant, charismatic, and focused,” said Wilkins.( Law School professor David B. Wilkins)
Loeb University Professor Laurence H. Tribe ’62, who taught Obama and employed him as a research assistant, remembers him as a “brilliant, personable, and obviously unique” person. Tribe said that Obama’s theoretical perspective on applying modern physics to law was “very impressive.” “He is obviously a serious intellectual as well as a fantastic campaigner who can reach across boundaries,” Tribe said. “He will make an extraordinarily fine president.” http://www.thecrimson.com/art...
"...brilliant, personable, and obviously unique” person" that also said in one of his stupid books that he gravitated toward his Marxist professors. Intellectual? Don't make me laugh:
ROF....He was a complete unknown..both his parents were pieces of garbage..he went to college as a forgein exchange student. (FREE) He was a jr senator and got the job as no one else wanted it..he did absolutely nothing for his state as a senator..no one knew who he was till he ran for pres..he had not one accompishment, had no political experience, no forgein affairs experience, no military experience, no business experience. He and his wife both were piss poor lawyers and were asked to leave and they gave up their license which is virtually unheard of..BO ran for pres on his being half black...nothing more..he has to use a teleprompter ALL THE TIME..as he is an idiot...he never did one single thing on his own..he is a parrot..He was a community organizer..a big zero! He has ripped this nation a new ass hole..he has destroyed industry..he has done nothing what so ever to benefit this nation..he is a muslim commie all the way..and because he wasn't vetted, and hid all his info..he is a treasonous illegal alien! http://youtu.be/yAyCdfOXvec http://youtu.be/S0VZW0wuH04
Yet he is all set to win a second term, it seems the majority of Americans don't buy into this rightwing hyperbole and rhetoric. I can't wait to read about how you think he stole the election afterwards, it'll be a riot.
