Why do you think U.S. Senator Edward M. (Ted) Kennedy has moved his entire personal estate assets to an offshore trust located in Tortola, BVI? Possibly because BVI has no estate or death tax? Kennedy has few personal assets in the U.S. The family pays an annual rent (to cover property taxes, insurance, maintenance, operations, etc.) to his BVI trust for his considerable luxury compounds located in Martha's Vineyard, Palm Beach and elsewhere. I am a man of modest means, but when we both die I suspect my death tax bill will be larger than his.

Gee Kristie, why don't you tell Odumbo/Osama that you would like to see his hidden college records and why he uses a fraudulent social security number and where is his real birth certificate, and why is everything covered up about this moronic muslim nit wit.Why is it everytime someone starts getting to close he threatens to put them in Jail or he is always paying people off to shut up. Get real kid.

Paul,

Your ignorance knows no bounds. Do everyone a favor and STFU!

KMN - I had to confirm what you said was true because it seemed to unreal to be true. How true it is - Here is the link to this story http://www.nypost.com/p/news/national/romney_aide_an_act_qaYQRyeKZAzvSga9mpHaUM?utm_medium=rss&utm_content=National
Just goes to show you money can't buy you everything - like aides with at least an average IQ

KLM: Are you saying that Romney's aid is running for president? I suppose when you hide your true ID you can say anything.

I didn't say his aide was running for president. But who one chooses to serve on their campaign staff is a reflection of one's leadership skills.

As for hiding my true identity? My picture is in my profile, don't be so lazy.

And I suppose you believe that Odumbo/Osama is a real inocent little angel, come on if someone was a jerk I would tell them the same thing, and you know damn well you would do the same.

I know you would Paul. But we already know you are an ass. We're talking about a guy representing someone running for President. Even if you think it, you don't say it no matter how much someone pisses you off.

Oh yeah, school records from 30 years ago is more relevant than income earned 3 years ago??? And why would you think Obama would have any problem getting a passport while in college? You're not one of these idiots who things Obama was born in Kenya and his birth certificate faked, are you???

Ron,

The man has been President for close to 3 and half years. You can vote for him or choose not to vote for him, but he doesn't have to show you anything else. Mitt on the other hand needs to meet the standard set by all of his predecessors and release more tax returns.

By not releasing his transcripts, Obama has not met the standard set by other candidates.

He was an admitted slacker and drug user at Occidental, yet somehow he gained a scholarship to Columbia, where he was a virtual unknown. He then magically was admitted to Harvard Law and became editor of Law Review, despite never having published a thing, or being recalled as beyond ordinary.

In retrospect Obama's lack of scholarship foreshadowed his complete failure as President. It is quite clear what he is hiding.

Ron,

When was the last time you were on a college campus? Smoking pot isn’t that unusual.

GWB was an admitted alcoholic and cocaine abuser. I don’t recall you asking to see his transcripts from Yale. Nor do I recall you questioning how he got into Harvard Business School?

Also the President was elected editor of the Law Review by his peers. Obviously they knew more than you do and were comfortable with their choice.

Your debate skill are weak…

Kevin,

Try to keep up. We saw GWB's grades from Yale (he did better than Kerry). And Obama was an admitted cocaine abuser too.

The question is, how did he get a scholarship into Columbia? Affirmative action, no doubt.

I have no idea how the President got a scholarship to Columbia. Maybe it was based on merit. I got a full scholarship to a service academy, based on a nationwide competition. My entire Columbia MBA was paid for by a former employer, based on my performance and leadership potential . You probably think because I'm black I got into good schools based on affirmative action as well.

Ron, do you object to Bush-43 having gotten into the Ivies based on affirmative action of the privileged and well-connected sort? Or do you just object to affirmative action for black folks? Dude, your biases are screaming. But you can't hear them.

No one who's paying attention has doubted Obama's intellectual abilities. W, on the other hand, cannot even wrangle an invite to the Rethug convention because he was such an embarrassment to your party. Yet, I suspect that you voted for him, not once, but twice. Because merit, intellect, scholarship and performance are such a priority to you.

Obama wrote his biography. Dreams of my Father. Turns out it was fiction

Well it seems that Mitt is suppose to follow all the rules and show everything but Odumbo/Osama doesn't have to show his real birth records and prove that he was really born here, because there is NOW real proof that he was NOT and is in fact an illegal alien and doesn't belong in the WH. He doesn't have to say why he uses a fraudulent soc. sec. number and where is his real college records and his tax returns. What is it the news media and the democraps don't want eveyone to know. What is he hiding? Get real dude you can't demand something for one person but not the other moron that you think is an angel. He is a born lier and a cheat and a thief and he selling us out to Iran because he thinks they are our friends. Thats a real ignorant moron. What happened to the $535 million dollars he gave to Solyndra, money that we'll never see again.

What proof Paul?

Looking forward to you making a bigger fool of yourself, if that's possible.

Which other Arab countries are being occupied by Israel?

That's exactly my point, Prentiss. The palestinian arabs lack of achievement is no different from the same low standard of arab countries in the area.

http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2012/07/mitt-romney-is-right-culture-matters-part-two.php

Romney is right. Hopefully he will start a trend of stating the obvious.

Ron, it amazes me that our president is a coke head. Those who vote for Obama are those in need of gov't assistance. Anyone with a brain realizes how much he is hurting the middle class and small business owners.

Let's see....in 2008 a majority of American voters cast their ballot for the current President. In 2012, there is a high probability, the same will occur. So by your logic, most Americans are in need of government assistance. The pure ignorance of many who post on this site is astounding.

It’s tough when the cards are stacked against you. Obama gets a free pass from the media.

Prentiss, I'm afraid you are in need of a better brain. The records have showed now that this moronic muslim maniac has no idea what he is doing and has put more people out of work than any other President in history. Yo an K can only throw up the race card all the time. When going gets tough pull out the race card and shut people up. Well as I always told people take that and stick it where the sun won't ever shine.

So based on your own logic, Romney must have something to hide by not releasing his tax returns. And if they're both hiding something, which should we be more about.... what Obama got as a final grade in 1979, or where Romney's income came from 3 years ago???

KMN, black unemployment is 15%, black teen unemployment is near 50%.

the country is 5 trillion more in debt, the unemployment rate is still 8.2% the under employed is 14% there are 1 million fewer people working then when he took office there are more people on assistants than ever before. By the way most candidates only release 1 or 2 yrs. of returns that is the standard not 10 yrs. Like you said he’s been in office 3 ½ yrs that is all I need to know and I wish people would focus on that and how bad it’s been.

Al, $3.5 trillion are the result of the Bush hang over of 2 wars and an unfunded Bush tax cut. You know that so I assume you are just trying tto deceive people. You also know that McCain was the only Presidential candidate to release only two tax years in fourty years but he also files financial forms for his seat in the Senate so again your are deceiving people.

'Cut-throat' is the word. That's why he is so uncomfortable being nice. Just doesn't come naturally to him.

Dan, why don't you stop telling lies. You talk about Romney giving things away, look at this moronic idiot who has given secrets away a number of times and has little secret deals that the democraps are know for. And you talk about the two " Bush Wars" if you don't like it maybe the next time the arab bastards hit again, maybe you and dumbo/osama would feel better calling for the muslims to come and help your stupid butts. Its a know fact that the dems don't have the stomach for war, they are afraid to declare war anywhere, they leave that to the republicans and then they come in the next election and say all kinds of crap. Why don't you get off you cowardous high horse for a change. If the only thing President Bush was guilty of was not wiping Iraq and Afganastan of the face of the earth. If he did we would be in half the shit we are right now with you cowards spewing out a bunch of bull crap. Why don't you go back to school and get some smarts and then grow a freaken pair.

LOL!

If I were the Dems, I wouldn't be laughing too loud, given that their candidate is "Mr. U Didn't Build That!" Has to be the Foot-in-Mouth moment of the decade, even trumping "Mission Accomplished."

dan, that is all noise get to the real issues. just like all the obamacare costs will not kick in till he is out of office.bottom line is dems and Obama blame everyone else. he will not own his presidency. we are not better off now than when he took office.

Stig, You really want to take a line out of context for a comparision and remind people of a lie that went on to cost over 5000 lives and untold amounts of money? Really? You want to do that?
Al, do you really believe that a man who spent his life using other peoples money and ruining lives in the process and can't hold his own in the real world with other leaders is a better choice? Well both of you and all the other Obama haters here in Morris will have no effect on his re-election or his loss. NJ is going to vote for him and you guys just don't matter. Morris County won't but that is a given but NJ will and because all that matters are the electoral votes, you guys just don't count.

Stig,

You just nailed the central problem of Mitt's campaign. Relying on an out of context misquote is a bad sign for any candidate's future fortunes.

One of my favorite Mittens Robme quotes, "I enjoy firing people!" And with all his outsourcing business expertise, exactly how is he qualified, experienced, or able to work his economic magic? He certainly has no commendable record from his time as MA governor. What exactly is his plan, I must have missed it!

How was it "out of context," and what did Obama really mean?

The fact is, Obama believes that everything flows from the government.

Unfortunately for him, most Americans have a dim view of the government, so pretending that all will be well if we just tithe 100% of our Income to Obama and his Socialist friends, isn't a winning strategy.

It’s very simple.

The President's "you didn't build that" comment referenced the fact the private sector didn’t build the infrastructure that transports workers and goods. Nor did it build provide the primary education system where many employees initially gain skills to their jobs. These advantages are provided by the public sector and thus are in line with the President's comment correctly stating private industry "didn't build that."

Wrong-O. The following seems pretty clear, the campaign's attempt to walk it back notwithstanding, "If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen."

Even if you go with the theory that Government made it all possible, who's already paying for over half of the cost of the US and state governments . . . the RICH! Ergo, the Rich really are responsible for their own success.

And lest we forget, remember this other recent BO doozy - "the private sector is doing just fine." And the Obama campaign is trying to make Romney into Mr. Gaffe?

Obama is O-fer the Summer.

The campaign isn't trying to walk anything back. The President's full quote is as follows:

“If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet.”

A five year old could tell the "that" in his 5th sentence was in reference to things he mentioned in the previous sentences related to education and infrastructure. He wasn't referencing someone's business.

The fact Mitt chose to put out ads that selectively edited what the President said says a lot more about Mitt than it does about the President. Perhaps this is why Mitt is trailing in virtually all of the swing states.

ROFLMAO.

KK you are a disgrace to the human race!!!!!!

Al,

You have the right to pray and vote for whomever you want. Based on the how the Electoral College Map is trending, Obama will win. You might as well get used to it now.

True...at least you heard it here first!

When you say "felons" are you referring to people arrested for felony crimes along the lines of those comitted by these two local GOP operatives?

http://newjerseyhills.com/randolph_reporter/news/kreeger-goes-to-prison/article_6f5db247-2dce-5541-ad8f-eb7e59433378.html

http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2009/03/exwashington_township_official.html

Felons and illegals, BHO is counting on them. I doubt it will be enough.

No felons can't vote but they can buy guns in many states. Isn't that a fine state of affairs.

To 1819 and KMN,
As I understand it, individual states determine a felon's right to vote. There are several states e.g. Florida, where felons are not allowed to vote. Voting is investing in the future of your country, influencing its well-being. My belief is that after a person has served his time and made reconstitution, he should be allowed to participate in the rights and responsibilities of society. What purpose is served in doing otherwise? For example, think about a 20 yr old who steals a car, or maybe money from his employer. Do you really think he should continue to be ostracized when he is 70, even if he's made restitution and has lived a decent life in between?

Jo,

I wasn't offering an opinion; just stating the fact felons are prohibited from voting in federal elections.

The laws governing convicted felons & voting rights are pretty complicated. Basically, felons lose their rights when convicted BUT individual states take over at that point. The laws vary from state to state, so I can't accept your claim that they are not allowed to vote. The best source of info I could find for you is at http://felonvoting.procon.org/view.resource.php?resourceID=286

A study conducted by the Florida Sun Sentinel in late October 2008 found:

More than 65,000 ineligible and duplicate voters on Florida's registration rolls.
600 dead people on the list.
32,000 multiply-registered voters.
More than 33,000 convicted felons who should not be eligible to vote.
In the final five weeks before voter registration closed Oct. 6, Florida added more than 2,600 ineligible felons to the rolls.

G, Check the Morris County voter records. Do a first class mailing and 30 percent come back because these people either moved or are dead but that is just the incompetance of the Board of Elections. That doesn't mean a single one of these votes are cast. Bad record keeping doesn't translate into voter fraud.

For you Dan, if they don't allow felons to vote, then how come they let the democraps vote?

"Did you know that almost 70 percent of those in poverty have 4 flat screen tv's in their home?" Even if this were true, what does it have to do with the price of tea in China?

Where are u getting your purported "facts"? From another anonymous vomitous post circulating on the Internet? Don't believe everything u read.

typical lib, you take a snippet of the entire quote and spin it the way you want.

And if he released his taxes and it showed he paid nothing or a very low percent would it still mean nothing? His off shore accounts say a lot about his lack of faith in American and his desire to avoid the taxes paid by most Americans. He may get away with this but it is people like you that make up the difference. Does he at least send you a Christmas Card?

There’s a difference between making silly verbal gaffes, like saying that there are 57 states (or the hundreds of ‘Bushisms’ that GWB uttered), and making statements that show the true nature of your thinking, like saying that London is not ready for the Olympics, or that Israel is prosperous because of their cultural superiority.

As far as Romney’s taxes go, it is also a distraction that he refuses to release them (especially since his father set the example of releasing 10 years of his own). If nothing more will be garnered about Romney through their release, then why does he continue to refuse???

Why not an embarrassed Democrat, because I'm a republican. I took a look at the line up of candidates this year and turned pink. Romney was the best of that sad group, but he just the best of the worst candidates Ive seen in my entire lifetime. The party has gotten so stuck we're the reason nothing's getting done in washington. We're fighting battles no one can win, and all of the parties energy is being bled away by posturing. Plain and simple Republicans need to get to work.

The dems want class warfare. They are not happy that someone can make millions and stay within the tax code.

Well you haven't been paying attention then. More posts are anti-Obama and in fact the vote of Morris County will have little effect on the State wide vote.

Once again… the ole liberal-biased media at work. Conservatives love to pull that one out whenever stories or opinions don’t go their way.

"Another Obama re-election vehicle" Do you even realize how insulting that is? By the way, which of us is using the pseudonym here? In case you haven't been actually watching the campaign, the subject has been almost nothing but the economy. If you are one of the many "anyone but Obama" Republicans, I don't agree and I think it demeans us as a party and as voters to think that way. The President has done a few things I don't like at all, but a lot more things I do like than I ever suspected possible. He's a centrist, in most respects, and we need a lot more of that right now. Right now we have a bad attitude as a party and a terrible candidate to boot, and I'm going to go right on calling them as I see 'em.

I disagree with your math here. Under the Obama administration we have increased the federal deficit 1.47 trillion, not 5 trillion. The figure for the last President Bush is essentially correct. Check it here: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/ezra-klein/post/obamas-and-bushs-effect-on-the-deficit-in-one-graph/2011/07/25/gIQAELOrYI_blog.html

You mean the "50%" who don't make enough to qualify for federal taxes? they still pay state taxes, sales taxes, water taxes, property taxes etc. etc. etc. I have great difficulty buying the whole "freeloader" argument. If your job only pays minimum wage are you a freeloader?

Don't forget about gas taxes!

If the benefits you are receiving are greater than the taxes you are paying, by definition you are a freerider (or freeloader).

As for the gas tax, in NJ, they aren't even covering the cost of current road construction or repair. They are simply going to pay debts run up by the last half dozen governors.

And the famous Payroll Taxes that Liberals keep harping on were supposed to be covering their eventual retirement costs, but we all know that FICA and Medicare taxes are simply going back out the door to cover current retirees.

The whole Freeloader myth is based on what you might call the Mrs. Romney Myth of "You people" because the simple truth is that average people are considered of lower stock than the wealthy. The main problem is that us "You people" haven't yet caught on to the fact that we are no different than their servants. The peasents have surrounded the castle but have pointed their pitchforks on each other. Make the REpublicans happy as heck.

There are no serfs in America, as Liberals would have us believe. But we have reached a tipping point where almost half the people in America are now getting some sort of direct financial aid from the government, and once you're on the dole, it's hard to say no to politicians who promise you even more.

Stig, If a family moves into a town like Montville and pays $10,000 in property taxes but has two children in the school system costing $24,000 per year by your definition they are freeloaders? What you really hate is a race based belief that those who are not paying taxes or their fair share are minorities. Do you also feel the same way about Romney's 13 percent payment?

Ah, I see. The big conference in Las Vegas certainly seemed wasteful. I'm not so sure about the 40 million in bonuses, need to know more. From what I've read most of it was in $500 and $1000 individual bonuses. Things like setting up meetings and conferences on their own time would earn a bonus of $500. Still, accountability is key.

First that's the Heritage foundation, whom I trust very little. Second, that's deficit not debt. However, neither are created by presidents without the full cooperation of congress. I'm afraid we all have to share the blame on both.

Look at the latest swing state polling. You and Karl Rove are going to have a long faces on the night of the election.

Check the date, it's August 2, not November 6. Still a looooonnnnngggggggg way to go until we vote, and lots of bad economic news on the horizon. By late October, very few will be chanting, "Four more years."

I am aware of the date. We had this same discussion a month ago. Guess what...swing state polling is more in the President's favor than it was a month ago. Things are clearly going in the wrong direction for Mitt. But you keep holding on to the dream!

You were wrong then, and you're wrong now, but at least you are consistent.

Try and keep up:

http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/08/02/aug-1-obama-extends-electoral-college-advantage/?ref=politics

Swing state trending shows my prediction is more probable now than it was a month ago.

But you just keep telling yourself otherwise.

You should google "Marxism," No reputable source defines Marxism that way. You obviously are invested and committed to your views, but I do think you need to look outside your regular sources for better information. You'll make better decisions that way.

Dan, you are right on the mark! America is lucky to have this brilliant man with his heart and sharp mind totally focussed on his job to get us out of massive mess created by Black-hole Bush utter incompetence which was driven by his mendacity, lack of sincerity and contempt for ordinary Americans. Romney is as insincere as Bush was. Why the hell does he want to be in White House? For Romney, it is just a rich man's game. It is a trip to grandiosity. He he wins, he will outsource Americans as slaves to China where in anycase they have shortage of labor, - they now want to send their only child (per family) to university. So we shall be needed to work on cheap product factories. A hundred years of progress for Amreican workers, it wil be an ultimate irony for us to be looking for jobs in Communist China!

As always when they have nothing else to say, bring out the race card again. Just like a pig!!!!!!

That "quote" has about the same amount of truthfulness as the "I like to fire people" quote. Both are out of context and ignore the points being made at the time. Neither are valid representations of the candidate's intentions.

It's called free speech, if you can't "figure it out" I suggest you read some other thread. Our country was founded on our ability to voice our descent with our political system.

I couldn't agree more Truscha.

Careful now - don't descend into indecent dissent.

I wouldn't trust an embarassing democrap to tell the truth about anything.

Do you know your history? Do you know about the Federalists and Republicans, which were the first 2 political parties? Do you know about the fierce political battles between Jefferson and Hamilton, and their supporters? Things were pretty divisive way back then, long before any electronic media.

I disagree. The comments with respect to Mitt's incompetence are on point.

Yeah K talks about incompetence but he doesn't want to tell you how stupid and incompetent this muslim jerk is.

You are entitled to interpret the President's comments anyway you chose. In November, the American people will decide the merits iof reflecting the President. Current swing state polling continues to move in the President's favor.

Just as in 2008, the probability is INCREASING you will have a long face on the morning after the election.

Kevin Millhouse Nedd, Interpret this: Obama doesn’t have an economic plan and believes that the private sector is ‘doing fine. If that' the case Why have we now gone 42 consecutive months with the unemployment rate above eight percent???

Further, If Obama is doing such a greet job with the economy and jobs why are his Job Approval numbers slipping in the poles?

Obama Job Approval Slips to 44%; Matches 2012 Low

http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/obama_administration/daily_presidential_tracking_poll

And what economic plan does Romney have???

Tom,

Why have we had 26 consecutive months of private sector job creation to the tune of 4.5 million net new jobs? Why did we lose this many jobs in the final 6 months in the Bush administration?

...by the way Tom, we dont elect presidents based on approval numbers. It's based on the Electoral College. To this end, these numbers should be of concern to you:

http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/08/02/aug-1-obama-extends-electoral-college-advantage/?ref=politics

WHERE'S THE GROWTH?

Kevin Millhouse Nedd, If you're best is not good enough, you still lose. Likewise, Obama's best efforts have FAILED to grow the economy. 1.5% GDP just isn't good enough..

In sports the team with the lower score made their best effort to win the game, but, if the other team outscores them, they still LOSE! 42 months the unemployment rate was over 8% at some point you'll have to admit hope and change ain't working out!

No excuses, no crying Kevin.

What you stated are desired GOP outcomes, not an economic plan. It's no wonder Mitt is getting his clock cleaned in the swing states.

Kevin Millhouse Nedd, Of course you can't come back with anything but hyperbole because you know in your heart Obama has no viable economic plan to turn the economy around. Game over, I win the debate!

What part of this chart do you not understand?

http://www.barackobama.com/jobsrecord

I'll see your one Obama.com sponsored chart, and raise you two -

http://thf_media.s3.amazonaws.com/infographics/2012/02/b-payroll-employment-decline-chart-1_1065.jpg

http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/2012/08/~/media/Images/Reports/2012/08/ib3691_chart1.ashx?w=600&h=717&as=1

Team Obama has no idea how drive a real recovery. Time for them to go.

...and I'll raise you the link to a chart showing the primary difference between the 2007 recession and prior ones.

http://www.epi.org/publication/public-sector-job-losses-unprecedented-drag/

It's a lot easier to pull a country out of recession when public sector job growth is one of the pistons in the engine.

The number of jobs that Obama has claimed he "created" don't even cover the number of new employees who have come into the workplace in the last two years. Overall, the percentage of people working is almost 10% lower than it was through the last decade before the crash - http://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS12300000.

That's why this is the worst economic recovery ever, and it can all be laid at the feet of the President. He's more worried about expanding entitlements, and bolstering public sector employment, than he is reviving America's economy. And no Dan, that isn't "hate,' it's a FACT.

g if Obama created 2 million new jobs; why is unemployment over 8% for over 42 months?
And if Obama created 2 million new jobs; why is GDP only 1,5%? Which is little to NO growth in the economy.
Numbers don't lie,unless of course, your name is Kevin Millhouse Nedd.

Tom,

Over the past 26 months, the economy has created 4.5 million private sector jobs. That is a fact. Unfortunately we lost more than this amount in the final six months of the Bush administration. Given the size of the hole left by GWB, its not hard to figure out why the percentage is where it is.

uh-oh, the care takers have gone away for the weekend, here come the nut cases....

LMAO--I told you so, they're anonymous and so anal retentive they always have to have the last word.

Tom,

Here is a pretty good summary on why GDP is at 1.5%:

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/28/business/economy/us-economy-expands-at-1-5-rate.html?pagewanted=all

The 8% unemployment figure is a result of the steep job losses that began in the last year of the Bush presidency which carried over before the current president's policies, which have added 4.5 million jobs over the past 26 month, took effect. When you factor in the impact of new job seekers into the market, it's not hard to see why we are at 8%.

But here is a more important question for you...if the economy is doing so poorly, why is Mitt getting killed in the swing states that will ultimately determine the election? Why isn't he walking away with the election? While the answer is simple, I'm sure it's a bitter pill for you to swallow.

Kevin Millhouse Nedd, Your NYT's article agrees with me more than you.. here's a quote."Growth was not strong enough to drive down the unemployment rate, which has stalled above 8 percent in recent months." ( 42 to be exact )

Were talking about Obama's economic policies, stimulus & deficit spending, are not strong enough to grow GDP. Which was point my to you in the first place...

And now I ask you; why are you so willing to put up with such a poor performance from Obama? Your'e an intelligent man, Why wouldn't you want to see 3% 4% 5% 6% growth form this administration? Why are you settling for second best and making excuses for Obama?

At what point will Obama to take a leadership role and stop blaming Bush? ( I'm rolling my eyes)

Tom,

Once again you failed the 5 year old test. Predictively you zeroed in on the symptoms of low GDP growth as opposed to understanding the root cause, which has a lot to do with a lack of consumer spending due to the residual effects of the slow recovery of the housing market. Now I realize you tune pianos for a living which doesn't require much intellect, so perhaps further discussion on this topic is futile.

If your point is that the economic crisis was caused by "bad loans" you're a bit off track. That added to it but the actual proximal cause was trading in bundled loans and buying credit default swaps as insurance. Unregulated derivative trading without sufficient understanding of what was being sold, by both buyers and sellers, caused the crisis. Blaming people who got subprime loans is a lot of baloney. But I'm glad to see your research, that bodes well for you.

Great posting! A few of the regular contributors won't be able to fully comprehend, but it was spot on!

You mean back when there was a republican majority in congress? President's don't repeal laws, congress does. The President gets to sign the bill, they write very few themselves.

Kevin Millhouse Nedd, by now you're throwing things at your computer screen because you're learning the truth about Obama...here's a factoid for you....Obama is George Bush's third term.

Obama Hints at New Mortgage Refinance Program; Expect More Failure
White House suggest Obama may soon announce a new mortgage refinancing program for people who owe more on their loans than their houses are worth.

http://heartland.org/editorial/obama-hints-new-mortgage-refinance-program-expect-more-failure

Stockman was GWB's budget director. Enough said!

"I hope some day you get the help you need." Please spare me.

Happy to hear you have the opportunity to earn a little scratch. Don't spend it all in once place.

Apparently, you just love what Obama is doing to the country:

Barack Hussien Obama is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure, economic crisis and social chaos -- thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within.


Barack Hussien Obama is following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University. They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system with government spending and entitlement demands.

Obama's game plan to turn the United States into a socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority that desperately needs government for survival ... and can be counted on to always vote for bigger government. Why not? They have no responsibility to pay for it.


Stimulus and bailouts. Where did all that money go?
It went to Democrat contributors, organizations (ACORN), and unions -- including billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees across the country. It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their employees could keep paying union dues. It went to AIG so that Goldman Sachs could be bailed out (after giving Obama almost $1 million in contributions).

A staggering $125 billion went to teachers (thereby protecting their union dues). All those public employees will vote loyally Democrat to protect their bloated salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America.

g, during the shameful period of internment for Japanese-Americans during WW2 there were actually internal publications by Japanese internees that claimed that Japan was winning the war and would soon come and rescue them. It went on almost the until the end of the word. I bring this up because that is you. You just keep chasing falsehoods and writing about them. Of course they were held captive and you are free to seek real truth and choose not to. You just keep spitting up all over the subject. There are none so ignorant as those unwilling to learn.

Religion and politics should not and do not mix. Please don't pray for me, pray only for yourself, unless of course someone asks you to pray for them. Your assumption that I do not already have peace, is arrogant. And there is nothing evil about anything anyone is saying on here, just different opinions, that's all. Different is good, it's what this country is supposed to be all about.

Thomas don't bring the bible into the discussion because when you realize that Jesus was a liberal and went against almost everything the current crop of Republicans believe you might give up on the new Testement and that would be a shame. There is much there about the arrogance of power and how you should treat the poor as well as accumulating wealth. PS, I have never heard a Republican say "Blessed are the poor."

Dan- Republicans have done more for the poor than any other group in the history of the world. Capitalism has taken more people out of poverty than other system ever created.

1 Timothy 5:18For the Scripture says, "Do not muzzle the ox while it is treading out the grain," and "The worker deserves his wages."

Thomas, Please. The greatest advances for working people came about through the blood and strength of the Labor Movement. You apparently don't know much American history. Capitalism needed a gun to it's collective head figuretivley and litteraly and now we have a population of working stiffs that have forgotted that and are going backward. From indentured servitude through slavery up though the company store and creation of child labor laws and OSHA, Capitalism has always need a hand at thier throats to give workers an even break.

I am un praying all your prayers. Tebow 3:16, Blessed is he who is 250 pounds and can score in the red zone, for he shall find the promise land.

WAIT! His middle name is Hussein!!! Oh wow, I am definitely not voting for him!!!

Dan Grant you evaded the question. Again, why don't you tell me what facts are incorrect. I don't think you can.

Democrats are the party of hatred. It is in their DNA:

Democrats enacted a century of "Jim Crow" laws, and the Ku Klux Klan was a Democrat invention to win by terror what they could not win through politics or war.

The South was solidly Democrat for a century, due not only to Jim Crow laws enacted to disenfranchise Blacks, but political terrorism practiced against anyone, Black or Republican, who dared to vote against the wishes of the entrenched Southern Democrat political Machine.

1865-1877: Over 3000 Freedmen and their Republican Party allies were killed by a combination of the Ku Klux Klan and well-organized campaigns of violence by local whites in a campaign of terrorist violence that overthrew the reconstructionist governments in the American South and re-established segregation.

Glenn Greenwald wrote about the Obama administration's "presidential assassination program," whereby American citizens are targeted for killings far away from any battlefield, based exclusively on unchecked accusations by the Executive Branch that they're involved in Terrorism.

The following week, Obama's Director of National Intelligence, Adm. Dennis Blair, acknowledged in Congressional testimony that the administration reserves the "right" to carry out such assassinations.

Which party is the despicable party??

Oh, let me rephrase my post "g". I should say the Repubs have been despicable since Nixon but really kicked it up a notch since Reagan and his destruction of the middle class and his allowance of the evangelicals to hijack the party. At one time I admired Republican fiscal policies, however their current party is despicable and then some. By the way - I am an Independent, so you can call the Dems whatever you like.

Sir, Clinton didn't have Senator, "Family Values" Vitter's list of hookers and he couldn't take the Secret Service with him to meet escorts.

You really are a disgrace you RINO.

No Tom , the people bought into the myth of being in the 1 percent and now they are being kicked to the curb because Corporations found cheaper slave type labor in other Countries. Now they have a scared population who will work for almost any wage and forego any benefits. In fact this is not my fathers generation. This is a generation that would sell America's soul for the false belief that they too can be as rich as Romney and it doesn't matter how they get there.

Glad you don't want to hide from the facts. So let's put some on the table.

1. 2008 FY budget deficit - $438 Billion. All owned by GWB.
2. 2009 FY budget deficit - $1.4 Trillion. 7 months GWB/5 months Obama.

Funny how you don't want to talk about what happen during GWB's recession.

Let's put more facts on the table:

1. Under Obama, 4.5 million private sector jobs have been created in the last 26 months. Bush lost more than this many in his last six months in office.

2. Average GDP growth under GWB was 1.7%. Average GDP growth under Obama thus far has been 2.2%.

"g" if you're calling me a faux independent, why I am deeply hurt. I mean after all you obviously have seen my voting records since I was 18 and would know, huh?

Seriously, I am amazed at the lack of comprehension skills of supposed adults on the Patch. Nowhere did I support the Dems. I dislike both parties. At the moment I am not crazy about either candidate, but the lesser of the two evils...unfortunately that is often how one must choose in our political elections.

Patch severs don't have enough storage space to host all of the gaffes made by GWB and Romney!

Obama in Dream of my father: AN ADMITTED DRUG ADDICT!

"I had learned not to care. I blew a few smoke rings, remembering those years. Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it.

In high school, Obama, according to his yearbook photo, was part of the "Choom Gang." Chooming was Hawaiian slang for smoking pot.

THIS IS JUST TOO FUNNY:

How many states? Barack Obama made a more elementary flub when, during the 2008 campaign, he said: “I've now been in 57 states—I think one left to go.''

Abraham Lincoln: Obama identified Abraham Lincoln as the founder of the Republican Party.

Lincoln did not join the Republicans until 1856, over two years after the party was founded. The first Republican convention was held in Ripon, Wisconsin in 1854.

STATUE OF LIBERTY: Obama does it again. Not only does he blow a line from Emma Lazarus‘ famous poem called Obama claimed that Emma Lazarus was

“inspired by what she saw and heard, she wrote down her thoughts and donated a piece of work to help pay for the construction of a new statue – the Statue of Liberty which actually was funded in part by small donations from people across America.”

A little problem with Obama’s statement. It’s blatantly incorrect. According to the National Park Service, the Statue of Liberty was a gift from the people of France. Something you learn about in Elementary School (even those infested with progressive teachers)

Bush's brain was in an alcohol jar. He was so demented by the time he was 40 that he could barely complete a sentence. Republican's were treasonous in hoisting mentally ill Bush to White House. Republicans did not seem to have had their fill with destroying America for last 8/11 years that they want to have a go at it again, now with a robber baron, Romney, - the grand larceney! This guy is slicker than Bush but is as contemptuous of ordinary Americans as Bush was. Vote for Romeny, and watch America descend into utter destruction 4 years later! Only 1% of 1% like Koch brothers will survive to boast about their billions! Republicans should follow Black-hole Bush's advice about not being fooled again. Or may be for smart alec Rape-publicans, Bush was too foolish to heed!
...

Dear letter 'g': Get a personality, some humanity and then some brains! Where were you for 8 long years of Bush? Why did you not count dollars wasted on Iraq war? Did you complain why Black-hole Bush was increasinng the deficit by letting rich rob national treasury with larger tax deduction. Bush was burning the candle on both ends.

With your amazing memory, you probable know the foolwoing but are to ashamed a to admit it:

President Barack Obama, former editor of the Harvard Law Review, is no longer a "lawyer". He surrendered his license back in 2008 in order to escape charges he lied on his bar application. A "Voluntary Surrender" is not something where you decide "Gee, a license is not really something I need anymore, is it?" and forget to renew your license. No, a "Voluntary Surrender" is something you do when you've been accused of something, and you 'voluntarily surrender" your license five seconds before the state suspends you.

2 Michelle Obama "voluntarily surrendered" her law license in 1993. after a Federal Judge gave her the choice between surrendering her license or standing trial for Insurance fraud!

3. So, we have the first black President and First Lady - who don't actually have licenses to practice law. Facts.

Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr., the Democratic vice-presidential nominee, received five student draft deferments during the Vietnam War, the same number of deferments received by Vice President Dick Cheney, and later was disqualified from service because of asthma as a teenager. Mr. Biden never mentions his asthma, recounting an active childhood, work as a lifeguard and football exploits in high school.

According to the documents, Mr. Biden, 65, received several deferments while he was an undergraduate at the University of Delaware and later as a law student at Syracuse University.

A month after undergoing a physical exam in April 1968, Mr. Biden received a Selective Service classification of 1-Y, meaning he was available for service only in the event of national emergency.

“As a result of a physical exam on April 5, 1968, Joe Biden was classified 1-Y and disqualified from service because of asthma as a teenager,” said David Wade, a campaign spokesman.

In “Promises to Keep,” a memoir that was published last year and became an instant best-seller after he was tapped as Mr. Obama’s running mate,

WHY DID THEY PUT THEIR LAW DEGREES IN INACTIVE STATUS?? you don't mention that.

Barry still could not get a real job, because he was still a fraud, even with his Harvard degree in hand he could lie and take the Bar exam, but he could not work as a lawyer for a major law firm without a back ground investigation and he would never pass one.
Since Barack Obama fraudulently applied to the Illinois Bar. Obama had 17 unpaid parking tickets from his days at Harvard. Obama omitted his aliases of Barry Soetoro and Barry Obama. Obama admitted to drug use when he was younger and there is strong reason to believe he was still using drugs

So, Michelle got Barry a job at her law firm. Barry never filed a case alone and never filed a motion. He wrote lots of memos according to the law firm where Barry worked. (I think they know Barry is a fraud and don't want to be sued by previous clients) Barry rescinded his law licenses, so as not to be disbarred for fraud. The Bar knows Barry lied on his application. Michelle also had to turn over her law license for her involvement in corruption with the Chicago mayors office. "

They are still a disgrace to the human race.

Kevin Millhouse Nedd--Think Obama has the electoral college locked up? Read it and weep-- from the NYTImes.....ha ha ha ha ha......http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/07/28/july-28-missouri-slipping-away-from-democrats/

Over all, Mr. Romney’s chances of winning the Electoral College improved somewhat in Saturday’s forecast, to 32.6 percent from 30.9 percent on Friday, according to the model.

One reason for Mr. Romney’s improvement — in addition to his strong Missouri poll-- was that we went back and double-checked our polling database for cases in which polling firms had reported both registered voter and likely voter results within the same survey release.

The NYT fivethirtyeight source you quoted updated their prediction on August 1st. The President's chances of winning increased to 70.9%, while Mitt's chances dropped to 29.1%. The fact you just quoted something a week old that I already sourced above, albeit the most recent update in my case, reminds me of a great metaphor that essentially describes your existence.

"A day late and a dollar short".

Romney Up Big in Indiana....

A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in the state finds challenger Mitt Romney picking up 51% of the vote while the president earns just 35%. Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate, and 11% are undecided..

Tom,

The NYT 538 and RCP Electoral College projections already factor Romney having the edge in IN. Both sources show the President winning the Electoral College handily.

You haven't brought any "news" to the table with your lastest posting. If anything you continue to show the world just how desperate, clueless, and incompetent you are.

Dude you really are an idiot and aren't worth my time stupid.

Paul, Don't you mean your stupid time ????

Dan,

He got it right the first time!

Hat, that would be impossible because once a democrap always a democrap.

You suck at life at your response makes no sense. You sir, are literally the worst.

It seems to be a liberal thing: accuse the person of making false accusation but never show which facts are incorrect. Please tell me which facts I presented are incorrect.

LOL!

HH, I've never laughed so hard in my entire life, you are funny. I respect your right to voice you opinion, even though we disagree. Peace.

Lame!

Why do you always have to bring up sex or sexual stuff... weird. Anyways, I don't know, I find my pseudonym quite creative and imaginative. Now, since you are continuing to argue with a fake name, I will keep this rolling. Hattori is my real name, and I really am a samurai from the 16th century. Since I have been around for so many years, you should listen to the wisdom that I possess and post on the patch. Several hundred years of existence will give you quite the persepctive on politics.

Now, you are right, I will not post my real name, however, it is not because I am scared of being known as a hater of Christian values. I will say it right now, I hate Christian values, traditional or otherwise, so there it is; known hater right here folks!. This, by the way, should come as no surprise as I practice Shinto. I am not a bigot though, but that is quite an accusation! Why do you hate the Japanese culture Tom? I am of single mind, body and, soul and remember Tom, yantra, plus mantra, equals tantra.

Tom,

This is beyond embarrassing. Take your meds like the doctor ordered and lie down before you hurt yourself.

You spelt " you " wrong Tom. I guess your education did not stick either.

No Tom....I simply paid the fine for my misdomeaner which didnt prevent me from getting a job earning multiples of what you clearly make. Which is why you and your family continue to be a net drag on the hardworking taxpayers of Washington township. Is it true you pay less than $7K in property taxes, yet have at least one kid in our public schools which costs at least $12K a year? Who do you think makes up the other $5K? Who do you think pays for all the municipal and county services your family consumes? For all the time you spend posting, you should be working as many jobs as you can find so you can payback the people who have to shoulder your existence.

Kevin Millhouse Nedd.. Keep it up ....a misdemeanor is also punishable with up to a year in jail. BTW you spelled misdemeanor wrong, so much for affirmative action....

Whoa Tom! Why do you have to get racial... way out of line.

Hat - but you're OK with KMN to ridiculing me with Fabian socialism? Please cut the double standard nonsense. Do yo realize that Kevin has been convicted of harassment?

Tom,

Wrong again. My "petty offense" misdemeanor carried a maximum sentence of only 30 days. But the judge only issued a fine. Do you ever get any of your facts straight? Here are some facts you need to chew on. You paid less than $7K in property taxes, while having at least one kid in our school at a cost of at least $12K. Thus again you and your family are essentially on the public dole, so to speak. I on the other hand, paid over twice that amount (over $15K) and have had no kids in our public schools in over 10 years. And since you want to go racial, quite frankly, as an educated hard working black man, I'm a bit tired of carrying poor white trash like you!

Too funny!

Tom still tunes pianos for a living. It's his only source of providing for his family other than mooching off hardworking taxpayers.

mis·de·mean·or (msd-mnr)
n.
1. A misdeed.
2. Law A criminal offense that is less serious than a felony and generally punishable by a fine, a jail term of up to a year, or both.

Tom,

Not interested in being your friend. When you write me a check for all the years I have been subsidizing you and your family we can talk about being cordial. So for now, at $7k a year by my calculation you owe me at least $70k for the last ten years. And that's giving you a discount for the fact you had 2 kids sucking the township dry for a portion of the ten years.

KK,

You are correct. I regret and retract using the word "white" in my post above referencing Tom. Poor trash is poor trash, no matter what color it is.

Agreed, this debate is about politics, not race, shame on you Tom!

Kevin, I forgive you. Let me know when you are ready.

Tom,

I didn't ask for your forgiveness. I simply stated I regret using the word "white" in my posting above. Your race has nothing to do with you being poor trash and having to mooch off other taxpayers. I do however believe your profound ignorance is a major contributing factor.

I don't care what you call me. Peace to you Kevin.

Peace to you as well.

You're right Kristie, so I offer you a truce and an apology, let's stick to the issues. I'm willing if you are. And that offer extends to all.

Ok

I can"t imagine ANYTHING more empty and vacuous than tuning pianos for a living. That in conjunction with spending your remaining waking hours glued to the Patch. There is no conversation to follow. You are an insecure, frail human being. You quote scripture .... you drop proverbs ..... you regergitate columns from the NY Times. Its not original. You have lacked identity your entire life, and continue to do so. Go police some political signs somewhere.

What does Krauthammer's defense of Mitt's comments have to do with your bogus lists of presidential errors, crimes and misdemeanors?

"Our President, Barack Obama, was a member of a radical communist party, called the Illinois New Party and/or the Chicago New Party, which has Chicago Mob and Black Communist Activist roots."

Where is your proof of this claim?

Barack Hussien Obama is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure, economic crisis and social chaos -- thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within.

Where is your proof of this claim?

"No jobs"

A bold lie as 4.5 million jobs have been created over the past 26 months.

"No Growth"

Another lie, as the average GDP growth under GWB was 1.7%. Average GDP growth under Obama thus far has been 2.2%.

"President Barack Obama, former editor of the Harvard Law Review, is no longer a "lawyer". He surrendered his license back in 2008 in order to escape charges he lied on his bar application."

Another lie that had been proven false by Factcheck:

http://www.factcheck.org/2012/06/the-obamas-law-licenses/

"A wholly unpopular ObamaCare bill was shoved down the throats of a public overwhelmingly against it."

Another lie. A Rassmussen report, published today, shows opposition to repealing the health care law at an all time high. With only a 6 point spread, the public clearly isn't "overwhelmingly" against health care reform.

http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/healthcare/health_care_law

KMN- Your move.

I SHOW FACTS WHY DON'T YOU TRY SHOWING FACTS AND NOT INNUENDO.

I never contested the increase in our national debt. It's an objective figure that's very easy to verify.

However, the national debt has nothing to do with the lies I outlined above. So how about you quit ranting and specifically address the six lies where I called you out?

G, no matter what you do or say you will never change this jerks mind because he is going to vote for this idiot again only because of his skin color. It doesn't matter that he can't do the job or not. He votes because of color only which in and of itself, is as idiotic as anything I have ever heard. So you are only wasting your time and breath on this idiot. Its like a black comedian said one night," we don't care if he can do the job just get him in there , he's black ain't he" " We'll worry about who cam do the job on the next black man, lets get the first one in now".

Paul,

You certainly have a lot to say. The next time you need a haircut how about coming over to Mo'town's Hair Affair on Abbott Ave in Morristown and sharing your opinions with the brothers? I'm sure we all would get a kick out of your salty opinions on the first Black president. I'll even pay for the haircut.
...

I am voting for Obama because I agree with his view points and his parties view points on certain issues, not because he is black and I am white. Of course you are not going to change Kevins opinion Paul, or anyone elses, that is a fuitless quest. If you log on here with the intent of chaning minds, instead of stating your own, then you are sorely mistaken.

Paul, you presume to know why Kevin is voting for Obama and you may be right, but you are most likely wrong. Your presumption and subsequent quoting of some comedian just shows how fixated on race you actually are. Perhaps you won't vote for Obama because he is black, or even worse, not white! Duh duh duhhhhhh. Look, I have just as much evidence to say you are voting for Romney because he is white and you are white, as you have evidence to say Kevin is voting for Obama because they are both black.

Keep it about the issues and the politics.

You claim to use your brain for things? When in all of your moronic postings have you demonstrated this? All you do is bitch about how much you hate the President. Any moron can do that! You have yet to provide any evidence to substantiate your bigoted opinions, especially the ones about "most black people".

It seems you like to come across as a tough guy who is wiser than everyone else. In reality, you’re nothing more than a poor, bitter, old man.

I can't imagine what happened in your life that has left you so bitter.

Beyond funny!

Hmmm... lets see who is really using their head here. First off on several posts you keep calling Obama a Muslim, and while his name may sound perplexing to your bigot ears, he is, as we all know, a Christian. So whatever he is trying "turn" this county in to, I doubt it is a Muslim Republic or theocracy as you claim.

You also state above, "Most black people are voting for him because of race nothing more, they have already told me." Most black people have told you that? You have heard it from them personally as you claim? Lets take a look at some numbers here. There are approximately 38,929,319 black people in the US according to the most recent census, or about 12.6 % of the population. Now since most means a majority, we will divide that number in half, 19,464,659.5 and then add one, so 19,464,660 (ok we added 1.5 in all honesty, but hey that helps your argument). So, if you are to be believed above, you have personally heard from 19,464,662 people that they are voting for Obama! And, that their only reason for doing so is because he is black! Well sir, I don't know where you find the time to make all those phone calls or personal visits, but congrats on the hard work.

Oh wait, you didn't talk to all those people? Right because doing so would be an impossibility right? You were just using a figure of speech based upon your opinion and not fact, I got it. So in essence you were talking out of your ass, nice work sir.

Dan Grant you are hate monger. You try to spread you vicious lies but Americans look at the sewer we are now in and can see it was the policies of Obama and his radical socialists democrats. The liberals with Obama as their leadere are succeding in destroying America. . You make excuses for Obama's failed policies by playing the race card. You and your cadre of vacuous liberal are reprehensible and out right discusting.

If you can read my comments you will notice that all of may comments were about his failed policies, not because he is black.

For your edification Mr. Obama is not Black! He is 58% White, 38% Arab, 2% Egyptian and 2% African. He is less than 2% Black! His skin color is not from the Black genes but from the dark brown Arab color! His hair is no different than those who have Mediterranean genes! Mr. Obama, is not black and he has been telling the black community that he is black because he looks the part.

You and your vacuous liberals are disgusting.

Dan, you have become a very bitter old ex-politician over the years since I last saw you at church, I think you do remember that don't you? Thats when you professed to be a real Christian a God fearing man, remember those days?

g, since all these documents seem very important to you, can you please link Romney's so we can all be assured that he is not hiding anything?

Hookerman:

Education:
B.A. from Brigham Young University,

J.D. and M.B.A. from Harvard University

Religion:
Mormon - The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints

Working Background:

After going to both Harvard Business School and Harvard Law School simultaneously, he passed the Michigan bar exam, but never worked as an attorney.

In 1984, he co-founded Bain Capital a private equity investment firm, one of the largest such firms in the United States .

Funny....but I don't see federal income tax returns on your list?

So what's Mitt's excuse now?

No, no, no g.... I didn't ask you to list his credtials... I could do the same with Obama. I asked you to link the actual documents. If it's very important that Obama release these docs, then it must be equally important to Romney does too. Please provide them for us all to see.

heres the real deal on these supposedly sealed documents:
1. both long and short form have been released
2. not sealed
3. not sealed
4. of course they are
5. re-patriation? Once a US citizen always a US citizen.
6. Never happened, so there's nothing to seal
7. Not "Sealed," school records are private by federal law. No presidential candidate has ever volunteered their school records.
8. same
9. same and are you kidding? What business are financial aid records of yours?
10. same
11. no copies exist, even his professor doesn't have one.
12. same
14. not sealed and is a matter of public record.
15. Obama did release a full list of his law firms clients while serving in the state senate, but he hasn't released a list of the 30 or so personal clients, it's called attorney client privilege.
16. They were released to his doctors before he became President
17. He has the same passport he always did

Tell me what his farther's lineage is.

I did.

OBAMA the great falsifier:

-Father Was A Proud Freedom Fighter - LIAR, he was part of one of the most
corrupt and violent governments Kenya has ever had.
- My Family Has Strong Ties To African Freedom - LIAR, your cousin Raila Odinga
has created mass violence in attempting to overturn a legitimate election in 2007, in
Kenya. It is the first widespread violence in Decades.
- My Grandmother Has Always Been A Christian - LIAR, she does her daily " Salat "
prayers at 5 a.m. according to her own interviews. Not to mention, Christianity
wouldn’t allow her to have been 'one' of 14 wives to 1 man.
- My Name is African; Swahili - LIAR, your Name is Arabic and ‘Baraka’ ( from
which Barack c ame ) means ‘blessed’ in that language . Hussein is also Arabic, and so is OBAMA .
-I Never Practiced Islam - LIAR, you practiced it daily at school, where you
were Registered as a MUSLIM and kept that Faith for 31 years, until your wife made you change, so You could run for Office.
- My School In Indonesia Was Christian - LIAR, you were Registered as MUSLIM
there, and got in trouble in Koranic Studies for 'making faces' ( check your own book ).
- I Was Fluent In Indonesian - LIAR, not One teacher says, You could speak that
Language.
- Because I Lived In Indonesia, I Have More Foreign Experience - LIAR, You
were There from the ages of 6 to 10, and couldn’t even speak the language.
What did you learn, how to study the Koran and watch Cartoons ?

When will it stop?

whatg are the lies?

Dude, you don't see that the list you posted is totally bogus? That none of the claimed "lies" in the list are real?

Prentiss, you say that the list is bogus but you never tell me exactly why they are bogus. Can you suport your claim that the list is bogus?

WHAT HAS OBAMA DONE FOR BLACKS:

As African-American unemployment remains at over 15 percent, the Black community questions whether placing hopes on Obama was a mistake.

While the US marks Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, the African-American community is knee-deep in an economic nightmare.

“There is no question that black America is worse off than it has been in at least the last 30 years,” said Glen Ford, the executive editor of the Black Agenda Report.

The official unemployment rate for African-Americans has been hovering at around 16 percent for the last year.

“Number one in high unemployment, number one in home foreclosures and number one in populating the prisons of our country,” explained renowned civil rights activist Reverend Jesse Jackson.

New York’s Harlem neighborhood is one of the places that celebrated the most, when Barack Obama stepped into the White House. But two years into the presidency, the cracks in the dream for a better life have become too wide to hide.

Extreme unemployment with resulting poverty has created a pandemic of millions who need to be helped within black America.

“It has been a nightmare looking for work,” an unemployed African-American woman commented.

So what you have the President propose, that would pass Congress right now, which would significantly enrich the lives of all Americans, no just blacks?

I've been looking all over the place for someone who can interpreter what you wrote.

I've been askeing teachers starting with the first grade and I am now up to the fifth grade.

All the teachers are perplexed at what you wrote. Try again but use small words.

No Truscha, this is all based on fact. What one good thing did this moron you call a pres. do for this country that has made peoples lives better? We're going into another recession, unemployment is still above 8%, we're paying more taxes, wasted 800 Billion in stimulus, didn't produce hardly any meaningful jobs and a 1 Trillion dollar deficit for 5 years in a row. His plan is really working isn't it.

Hasn't attended a briefing in over a year, hasn't met with jobs council in more than 6 months, but he did attend over 110 fundraisers and played 10 rounds of golf so he has revealed his true priorities really are. Instead of fighting for jobs for Americans he is fighting for his own right now, while 23 millionAmericans are fighting for work. Oh sure he is really doing a wonderful job and the economy has really picked under him like he said it would. He was going to millions of Americans back to work or as he said " He didn't deserve another term". His words not mine! So Truscha why don't you keep telling us how good he is doing and how many millions of jobs he has created.

You haven't stated any facts Paul.

1. What defines a recession Paul? Do you even know? How about 2 consecutive quarters of negative GDP? Has that happen lately, Paul? How about you STFU until you know what you are talking about?

2. What "more" taxes are we paying Paul? The president has cut income and payroll taxes multiple times since he's been in office. He has taken heat from liberal for extending the Bush tax cuts for two years. SO WHAT SPECIFIC TAXES HAS THE PRESIDENT RAISED THAT YOU ARE NOW PAYING?

3. The stimulus didn't produce any jobs. Here is a CBO report that says otherwise. Do you have a degree in economics and thus can better inform us? If not, again STFU! http://www.cbo.gov/publication/25099

4. 4.5 million jobs in the past 26 months. Are we where we want to be? Of course not. Is there more work to do? Absolutely! But it's a hell of a lot better than losing 4 million jobs in the last months of a term, an honor only GWB can lay claim.

Which teacher pointed this out to you? Was it before or after naptime? LOL!

K, you seem to be spewing so much crap around and telling people to shut the F up all the time and always saying prove it, when are you going to shut up and prove some of the lies you've been telling. Besides I wasn't talking to you! When I say jobs I don't mean the phony ones he has been telling about people who can't collect unemployment because their benefits have run out, and he counts that as someone that went back to work. Thats a real joke, sorta like you. Stop listening to the lying news media, for you stories, I get the facts.

Paul,

I have provided sources for all of the facts I have referenced. If there is a particular fact you question, identify it and I will post the source.

Now with respect to your moronic comment on jobs, the numbers are easily verifiable via the BLS website.

http://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.toc.htm

There is no evidence that remotely suggest the BLS includes people whose have lost their unemployment benefits as having a job, when they remain unemployed. If you have evidence indicating otherwise, I am sure everyone here would love to see it. Until then you really do need to STFU! And yes, I am talking to you Paul.

How well did minorities and women fare during the last six months of the Bush administration when the economy lost over 4 million jobs?

I'm pretty sure minorities and women are included in the 4.5 million jobs gained over the past 26 months.

Moon batt--Hit hardest were the unemployed in the black community, where the unemployment rate increased from 13.6% in May to 14.4% in June. For black youths aged 16 to 19, the unemployment rate is now an astonishing 39.3%, up from 36.5% last month.

Did you really want to go there? George W. Bush was well-known for occasional problems with language, often including mispronouncing words.

1. Added a syllable to words. One of George W. Bush's most common ways to mispronounce a word is to insert an unnecessary syllable into the word. This is also one of the most common ways people make fun of the president. Famous examples of President Bush adding extra syllables to words include "misunderestimate," "hispanically" and "subliminable."

2. Removed a syllable. This method of mispronouncing words is a less common mistake by George W. Bush. However, there are examples of him doing it and you can still use it to make people laugh. An example from a President Bush quote is saying "unceptable" instead of "unacceptable."

3. Made words plural which should not be plural. Another of George W. Bush's most famous mispronunciations is using the word "Internets" in a debate. Simply saying "Internets" will cause many people to think of President Bush.

4. Mispronounced words dealing with foreign policy. One of the topics George W. Bush discusses most frequently is foreign policy, so several of his most famous mispronunciations are in this area. Examples include pronouncing the word nuclear "new-cue-ler," the word terror like the word "tear" and the word terrorist like "tearist."

You walked right into that one, pal! LOL!

G,

Instead of spewing more sewage, when are you going to provide some proof for the 6 specific lies I called you out on above?

GiGi,

I can't believe g had the nerve (or stupidity) to open the door!

GiGi:

My favorite Obama display of his intellect:

STATUE OF LIBERTY: Obama does it again. Not only does he blow a line from Emma Lazarus‘ famous poem called Obama claimed that Emma Lazarus was

“inspired by what she saw and heard, she wrote down her thoughts and donated a piece of work to help pay for the construction of a new statue – the Statue of Liberty which actually was funded in part by small donations from people across America.”

A little problem with Obama’s statement. It’s blatantly incorrect. According to the National Park Service, the Statue of Liberty was a gift from the people of France. Something you learn about in Elementary School (even those infested with progressive teachers)

OBAMA AND HIS SENSITIVITY OR JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF OBAMA'S INTELLECT

Special Olympics insensitivity: The President called and apologized to the head of the Special Olympics, after making this insensitive comment following a game of bowling: “No, no. I have been practicing. ... I bowled a 129. It's like—it was like Special Olympics, or something.'' Maybe he should have also apologized to bowlers for his feeble effort

GiGi:
Please, please don't close the door. It gives me a chance to let the truth in and stupidity a chance to escape.

The truth will set the vacuous liberal mind free from the hatred that's in their DNA.

Again thanks for opening the door.

GiGi this is just for you and KMN

Obama's greatest gaffe:

"I had a uncle who was one of the, who was part of the first American troops to go into Auschwitz and liberate the concentration camps," Obama said, slowly and methodically. "And the story in my family is that when he came home, he just went into the attic, and he didn't leave the house for six months. Alright? Now, obviously something had affected him deeply, but at the time, there just weren't the kinds of facilities to help somebody work through that kind of pain."

That may be a fact, the RNC noted gleefully -- but only if Obama's uncle served in the Red Army of Joseph Stalin, which liberated Auschwitz Jan. 27, 1945.

Another loonie has joined the party!

K, what is your problem, anytime anyone thinks different from you, they are called a loonie? We just happen to see the real truth behind what is going on in America today. Like jus because a pastor had people over to his house and held a Bible study group in his home he was arrested and put in jail for 60 days. This kind of stuff was never illegal before, why only now. And anytime anyone asks questions about dumbo they receive threats against their lives and called all kinds of names. This is not the America we grew up in years ago or the America we knew before. Why is it that eveything about this guy is a cover up. Something is not right, but you are to wrapped up in him to see the real him, or maybe you don't want to see it.

I have a problem with idiots like you who make wild ass unsubstantiated claims, who when asked for proof never provide any. Yeah, I think that just about sums up my beef.

Al, K is talking about himself who is "on the dole", because I'm not there waiting for a welfare check or food stamps { a handout for uncle dumbo maybe} thats why he loves him so much, the food stamp pres. thats his legacy to man kind. The only pres. to take jobs away from people and put them on food stamps, and then make people believe he is doing so much for them.

g,

You bring up a good issue. Having watched the video, I too wonder how the decision makers are able to bypass laws requiring "made in America". Are the Chinese bids that much cheaper? If this is the case then one has to wonder at what price are taxpayers willing to fully support the notion of "made in America"?

This post is not good.
