  1. Come election day the Republicans and Tea Party people will come out in droves not just to vote for Romney but also as a demonstration against Obamacare.

    Independents are trending to Romney big.

    Many Democrats who today are saying they are for Obama will not check in his name in November. There will be scores of states where Democratic candidates for Senate or Governor get a higher percentage of votes than Obama. Many Democrats will just vote against him in effect by not voting for President.

    I hope you're getting a retainer for this.
     
  3. BTW - Truman wasn't re-elected President. He only ran for President once.

    Why sure, I'm disappointed in our erratic and somewhat ineffective incumbent, so I am going to sign my life over to the Evil Empire who intends to bleed me dry and then feed on my corpse.

    Makes sense.
     
  5. Are you saying there is something wrong with my teeth?

    Why would you say something like that?

    I hope you are getting Gas-ex for your opinions.

    There - how do you like it?

    Of course the LWSM did the same thing everytime Bush was in Crawford. But I guess that was ok...

    The President of the United States is never on vacation. Even when he is.

    Well, except when he refuses to do anything about memos like ones titled "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S."

    That's because Bush spent a heckuva lot more days on vacation than other presidents.

    Here's one story on how many days Obama spent during his first 2 1/2 years in office. Bush spent THREE TIMES as many days on vacation as Obama did.

    Now yeah, you're right in terms of the president never truly being on vacation. But ... three times as many? Even Reagan, as noted in the story, had 112 vacation days.

    Yeah, 112 vacation days from his grueling regimen of in the office by 10 a.m. sharp, out by 3 (and don't forget an hour or so for lunch).

    And you think he's dumb. To me, that goes to show just how fucking brilliant he was -- who among us wouldn't kill to have that work schedule?
     
  11. Obama spends 6 hours playing golf but it doesn't count as a "day off". Obama spends his whole day doing fund-raisers but it doesn't count as a day off.

    George Bush is not running for election.

    God - some of you are sheeple.

    Again, the President of the United States is never on vaction. I don't care what party he is from. I've been pretty consistent about that stance.
