PUBLIC OPINION > Obama Would Beat Romney in a Fist Fight
SodaHead News
2012/09/20 19:00:00
The presidential campaign is heating up as the election draws near, and both parties have come out swinging. Fortunately for the candidates, that's just a figure of speech. This isn't the Bolivian House of Commons. But what if the election really did come down to fisticuffs? Could Romney throw a knock-out punch? How is Obama's left hook? We took this all-too-important question to the public. You know, just in case.


It looks like Obama took this one by a hair, but you know what they say. Close only counts in horseshoes and grenades. And maybe KOs. It would be quite the brawl, to be sure. In Romney's defense, he's definitely the larger man and doesn't have a history of smoking. On the other hand, Obama has proven himself a tough physical competitor on the basketball court.
Repping Your Party
We wanted this to be a fair fight, but based on the political breakdown, it seems most people just went with their party anyway. Few conservatives gave Obama the benefit of the doubt, and even fewer liberals did so for Romney. It's probably not going to happen anytime soon, so it's not like anyone's going to lose a bet here.
Teens Back Obama
Going by age, the youngest voters were much more likely to pick Obama. As voters got older they were less likely to pick the President, until about age 45 when it leveled out completely in favor of Romney. Of course, we have to allow for the possibility that this was also politically-minded, as younger people do tend to vote left.
Men Split the Vote
Men and women often have different attitudes toward violence, and also different perspectives on the relative strength of male competitors. For instance, there are more men interested in boxing and MMA than women. (Though, according to UFC president Dana White, the female audience is catching up.) Men were completely split, but women pushed the vote in Obama's favor.

Thank you for your response to my previous statement...
How does Romney throw?
Not much of a contest there..
Your pathology is that of irrational hate which demonstrates insecurity, helplessness, guilt, and the inability to effect change. Hatred of a person based on race, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity, or national origin constitutes irrational hate. Your comments show your pathology in great detail. This is not the comment of the President's Ideology or policies, it is an outright attack on the person.
The more insecure you feel, the larger the hate mask you wear and this Black African American President just drives you into a racist rage. Irrational hate bleeds through day-to-day activities in the form of racial barbs and ethnic humor. Irrational hate elevates the hater above the hated. Many insecure people feel a sense of self-worth by relegating a person or group of people to a lower status, much the same way a school yard bully does. Not all insecure people are haters, but all haters are insecure people.

Bubba, I have this big old heart, and can forgive you for your mental illness.
Americans wake up to a new horror heaped on us. Obama seeks to
saddle working Americans with a health care/insurance reform package
that, along with cap and trade, will bankrupt this nation.
These are the reasons that I refuse to vote for Obama:
Obama's actions are not only that of a liar, but that of someone who wants to destroy the foundation of what made America great.
Obama is destroying our economy with his out of control spending. Obama has accelerated the path that our nation was on to financial/fiscal ruin, by doubling the debt, despite his campaign promise to reduce spending and our deficit. He promised that by the end of his first term, he would cut the national debt in half, instead he doubled it
Unemployment has risen rather than fallen (despite his failed stimulus $ plan, money down the drain, funded his campaign contributors) and job creation is down.
Obama continued the signing of bills that contain PORK spending despite his campaign promise not to. Here is a video in his own words that he lied: http://www.youtube.com/watch?...
Obama's famous promise to transparency, where he promised the Healthcare negotiations would be televised on CSPAN. Instead were conducted in secret behind closed doors. Another LIE!

He failed to follow through with his campaign promise for more off shore oil drilling. Quite the contrary, he strikes a deal with Brazil, informing them that he will make the US dependent on foreign oil.
Backdoor deals regarding healthcare, despite his campaign promise to transparency to televise these negotiations on CSPAN. The majority of the people want Obamacare repealed. See proof on video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?...
CNN reports about Obama and his Lying and willingness to say anything to become elected: http://www.youtube.com/watch?...
His promise that Obamacare would reduce healthcare costs for everyone. Mine have increased 25% this year, because of the contents of the bill !!!!!!
The campaign promise of Capital gains tax elimination. Failed to follow through.
Hiatus on 401(k) penalties Nope - still the horrible rates.
Bring troops home in 16 months No, in fact started/engaged in another war, which we could NOT afford.
Gates "We will not be taking an active part in the strike activities, and we believe that our allies can sustain this for some period of time."
2 weeks later -
Akerman " U.S. fighter jets struck three Libyan anti-aircraft sites overnight, U.S. military officials told NBC News on Wednesday, as the Pentagon revealed for the first time that U.S. pilots have continued to strike Libyan air defenses after turning the mission over to NATO. The strike — on portable anti-aircraft launchers — was the third time in the past week in which U.S. fighter jets have attacked Libyan air defenses, the sources added."
Obama said, "Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age." But the irresponsibility over several administrations whereby banks were forced to artificially support a sub-prime interest rate that led to the housing bubble and brought down a financial house of cards gets translated into the president's distorted notion of class warfare, where the greedy and irresponsible "some" are at fault. http://www.americanthinker.co...
Obama said, "On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord." EVERYONE can attest to the heavy handed Chicago style of Obama. More class warfare.
Obama said, "We will act not only to create new jobs but to lay a new foundation for growth." What growth? Keynesian economics never work. Never. Well, maybe where unicorns exist.
Obama's Summer Of Recovery!! Did not happen - another empty promise!
President Obama said: "everybody in the country is going to have to sacrifice something, accept change for the greater good. Everybody is going to have to give. Everybody is going to have to have some skin in the game." flying Bo, the President's dog, on a separate aircraft to vacation with them in Maine, to a date night in New York City about 146k to a ridiculously costly trip to Spain, South America and anywhere else Michelle wants to go on the US Dime. Not very much austerity there. Not to mention a star studded event "In Performance at the White House." by the lovely PBS We also have Paul McCartney giving concerts there.
The Obama Administration Has No Position on the Ground Zero Mosque … Gibbs explained, the president wouldn’t want to meddle in local affairs. Okay dokay, but why then, the meddle into Arizona affairs?
Part of being great includes HONESTY and TRUST. Obama has NOT achieved either one of these important values. He however has proven that he will promise anything in order to become elected.
Numbers don't lie and the fact that under Obama's administration, the debt has doubled, unemployment has increased, job creation down, rising gas prices, Libyan war, all contributed to the failing economy.
NATURAL BORN JOB KILLERS: REPUBLICANS OBSTRUCT OVER 4.2 MILLION JOBS
By: Rmuse July 11th, 2012
Most human beings appreciate a person who sets a long-term goal and achieves success through careful planning, dedication, and single-minded determination to see their final objective reach fruition. There are, of course, some goals that should never be made, much less achieved, and world history is replete with examples of dastardly leaders whose goals were not in the best interest of humankind and caused immeasurable damage to a great number of people. On Inauguration night in 2009, Republican leaders gathered to plot the absolute obstruction of President Obama’s economic agenda and thus far, they have been successful much to the disappointment of millions of Americans who continue to suffer the effects Republican’s goal of retarding economic recovery and job creation.

There are, of course, some goals that should never be made, much less achieved, and world history is replete with examples of dastardly leaders whose goals were not in the best interest of humankind and caused immeasurable damage to a great number of people. On Inauguration night in 2009, Republican leaders gathered to plot the absolute obstruction of President Obama’s economic agenda and thus far, they have been successful much to the disappointment of millions of Americans who continue to suffer the effects Republican’s goal of retarding economic recovery and job creation. The GOP makes matters worse by decrying the President’s handling of the economy when the truth is that if they had not blocked, obstructed, and stonewalled every one of the President’s plans to improve the jobs and economic picture, the economy would be much closer to achieving a robust recovery.
The only failure in Republican attempts to totally destroy the economy was their inability to obstruct the President’s stimulus the Congressional Budget Office and several independent agencies claim created over 3 million jobs. However, they have made up for that success by refusing to consider President Obama’s American Jobs Act proposed over a year-and-a-half ago, and coupled with severe austerity measures at the state and local level, they have been successful maintaining unemployment at over 8% instead of less-than 6% if they were not intent on obstruction and economic devastation.
The austerity measures Republicans are implementing have never worked during a recession and despite the abject failure of every European country that enacted austerity, they are hell-bent on following the countries that have no growth and soaring unemployment. Even the presumptive Republican presidential candidate, Willard Romney, admitted that austerity during a recession is disastrous, and yet Republicans have killed over 600,000 public sector jobs that prevented 2.3 million downstream jobs from being created. Coupled with Republican obstruction of the President’s job plan in January 2011, they have effectively prevented 4.2 million Americans from finding good, living wage jobs, or enough to bring the unemployment rate down to 5.5% in a little over a year. Instead of cutting 600,000 teaching, police, firefighter and other public jobs, if states had increased those lost jobs by one-half, the unemployment rate would be under 5% and tax revenue would be up, the deficit would be reduced, and the economy would be humming along.
Republicans are now claiming that letting the Bush era tax cuts for the rich expire will kill more jobs, but the facts, and history, do not bear out their fallacious assertions. During the Clinton Administration, the wealthy paid 3% more in taxes and the economy added 22-million jobs, wages increased, and businesses boomed. In fact, during the Eisenhower Administration, the wealthy paid nearly 90% in taxes during the time when hundreds of thousands of soldiers returned from World War II, and the infusion of cash created the nation’s highway system, a booming economy, and the great middle class. The GOP knows how to create jobs, but they have no interest in America’s economy, or its people and they must relish the thought of killing jobs and retarding economic growth as they planned in 2009, and will continue throughout 2012.
There is a tax plan in the Senate proposed by Democrats that gives small businesses a 10% tax cut in exchange for hiring new workers and raising employee’s pay. It also allows businesses to fully deduct the cost of significant investments made in 2012 as an improvement to the current law that caps write-offs at 50%. An independent firm specializing in economic modeling estimates the legislation will add 1 million new jobs to the U.S. economy. The plan should give Republicans wet-knickers for including a tax cut for real small-business job creators in the healthcare, social services, and retail industry, and it passed a test vote in the Senate yesterday. However, because it was a Democratic plan, Republicans insist on loading it with amendments and the Republican-controlled House will surely oppose it because it creates jobs, and not tax cuts for the rich.
It is a travesty that Republicans hate Americans with such a passion that they deliberately obstructed over 4.2 million jobs, and continue advocating for more tax cuts for the wealthy as they seek out ways to kill more jobs. They have also resisted attempts by the President and Democrats to rescind tax breaks for corporations that ship Americans’ jobs overseas, and there is no telling how low the unemployment rate would be if they did their jobs. However, they have fulfilled their goal of obstructing economic recovery and job creation measures so one can imagine they celebrate every new report that unemployment is stuck at a little over 8% when the reality is if they cared about the economy or the American people it would be under 5%, and that is without letting Bush-era tax cuts for the wealthy expire. But that is the Republican Party that cannot compromise, help the American people, or help fix the economy their policies sent to the edge of the abyss. But they still have time to finish the job they started and obstruct America into a deep economic recession which appears to be their true plan that began in 2001 and should reach fruition by December 2012 when the Mayans predicted the world comes to an end. Unfortunately for millions of unemployed Americans, their world ended when Republicans deliberately killed their jobs and obstructed every single attempt to restore them and it appears they still have not achieved their ultimate goal of destroying the economy to make room for more tax cuts for their precious, imaginary “job creators.”

Now lets look at the things over which Obama does not have control, because as demonstrate above Obama was not the President in 2007 or in 2008 when this economic abyss was created by your group of maggots. Moreover, Budgets are set by the policies from Octobr1 of one year to October of the folloeing year, so the year of 2009 was under the control of the Bush budget of 2008 until ctober of 2009

The Pew Research Center is a nonpartisan fact tank that provides information on the issues, attitudes and trends shaping America and the world. The center conducts public opinion polling, demographic studies, media content analysis and other empirical social science research. It does not take positions on policy issues.
The Pew Research Center is a non-profit, tax-exempt corporation which operates under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Service code. It was established in 2004 as an independently operated subsidiary of The Pew Charitable Trusts, its primary funder.

http://pewresearch.org/about/
The Pew Center reported in April 2011 the cause of a $12.7 trillion shift in the debt situation, from a 2001 CBO forecast of a cumulative $2.3 trillion surplus by 2011 versus the estimated $10.4 trillion public debt we actually face in 2011. The major drivers were:
• Revenue declines due to the recession, separate from the Bush tax cuts of 2001 and 2003: 28%
• Defense spending increases: 15%
• Bush tax cuts of 2001 and 2003: 13%
• Increases in net interest: 11%
• Other non-defense spending: 10%
• Other tax cuts: 8%
• Obama Stimulus: 6%
• Medicare Part D: 2%
• Other reasons: 7%
So you say Obama is responsible for this as the experts don't seem to agree with your lying butt. want to try again half-wit?
The U.S. budget situation has deteriorated significantly since 2001, when the CBO forecast average annual surpluses of approximately $850 billion from 2009–2012. The average deficit forecast in each of those years as of June 2009 was approximately $1,215 billion. The New York Times analyzed this roughly $2 trillion "swing", separating the causes into four major categories along with their share:
• Recessions or the business cycle (37%);
• Policies enacted by President Bush (33%);
• Policies enacted by President Bush; (20%)
• New policies from President Obama (10%).
Again your claim it was all Obama's creation is exposed to the light of day and the lies it represents! what to try again?

So you would like to just skip over the fact that the last three Republican Presidents (Reagan, Bush 1, and George W. Bush) created $12 Trillion in national debt, gave TAX CUTS AFTER TAX CUTS TO YOUR FILTHY RICH ARISTOCRATIC MASTERS, a $800 billion drug bill onto Medicare, two more tax cuts to the Filthy Rich, a $750 billion stimulus, two ongoing Wars costing $12 Billion each month, and a economy sliding into another Great Depression, dump it in Obama's lap, and then try to blame Obama for what it all caused. Your problem, you gaping primate is it is all recorded history now, and all one has to do is fact-check to understand the truth. Your lies, conspiracy theories, and distortions of the truth are easily confronted and exposed, and that is exactly what I do. I have just covered the tip of the iceberg so far, and I have more to teach you maggot.

So after creating tens of millions of our citizens to lose their homes, jobs, retirements, and life's savings, you can't figure out why the unemployment and food stamp programs have gone through the roof? Either your really slow, or your elevators not making it to your top floors.

Education is learning what you didn't even know what you didn't know, and it would be my pleasure to be your teacher half-wit.
