Obama all the way. To vote for any of these Republican clowns just shows how much of a gullible, "I get rev'ed up by nothing but hate and fear". Their whole platform is based on it.
Democrats thrive on hope, Republicans live by hate. It's the classic battle between good and evil. We all know which side wins in the long run.
Having nothing better to do with my time, I made the mistake of tuning into the one millionth Republican debate on CNN. Not only did this debate remind me why I hate Republicans, it has reminded me why it is extremely important that I get out and re-elect Obama next year. Watching the debate I could see nothing but hate, vitriol, and animosity coming from both the candidates and the audience. I don't see how any American who is not a Republican could be impressed by this.
The irony of this is very telling. Obama owns the OWS'ers with his demagogic rhetoric. Obama has pitted Americans against Americans which you're okay with.

Seriously man, you sound like a complete drone. Most of the Republican field sucks. So does your president. He is Bush III and any independent thinker can see it.
By the way "hope" isn't worth a damn thing in the real world.
Obama will be re-elected easily, and rightfully so.
If you want to see America reduced to stinky rubble, vote (R).
American has already been reduced to rubble, terrible economy, Obama cannot handle, the worse housing bubble ever and getting worse, High High unemployment, thanks Obama, what Hope, we need Change, not 4 more years of hell, We need actually good change, and not just talk, action, and someone who believes in taking responsibility for his mistakes, and not blaming everyone and their Mother's for his.
We need someone who gets in not on the pretense of being someone different, when your very much the same, we need someone who does not promise to bring something new and different, when your the same thing we have know, we need someone with strong convictions, and someone that can handle the job of taking this Country to what it can be once again, and Obama is not the man, obviously, or people would not be out of work, and out of the sixteen familys i know of where husband or wife, or both have lost their jobs, some their home, that only 4 of them would have found jobs, by now they should each have jobs, and good ones to replace the ones lost.
We need a thriving economy, and sorry, Obama does not know how to get us one, what he does know how to do, is to blame everyone else for the economy, but himself. No respect for him, take blame for your actions Obama. Say what you may, this ain't no Hope, and it sure as hell ain't the Change most of you asked for. You were duped, and you all deserve it,i if you want 4 more years of sheer utter hell, high employment, businessess, not wanting to expand theirs, people cannot save a dime with this President, businesses are not doing good, then vote again for Obama, if you want 4 more years of this Country falling apart, go right ahead, you deserve him.
If you want a President who kissess one Races butt, then go right ahead, we need someone strong, and someone who will protect our borders, we can send help to every other Country, but our own, we ignore, go right ahead vote Obama.
"I will promise you this: that if we haven't gotten our troops out by the time I'm president it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. I will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." - Barack Obama, October 27, 2007 And yet 50,000 US troops remain to this day - along with 100,000 civilian "security contractors"
"Close down Guantanamo, restore habeas corpus, say no to renditions, no to wireless wiretaps..." - Barack Obama, November 14, 2007 Guantanamo is still open, while habeas corpus has been restored by Executive Order, renditions and wireless wiretaps continue. In addition, President Obama has given himself the power to assassinate a US citizen overseas in the name of national security.
"When I promise that I... we are going to bring this war in Iraq to a close in 2009, I want the American people to understand that I opposed this war in 2002, 2003, 4, 5, 6 and 7 -- so you can have confidence that I will be serious about ending this war." - Barack Obama, 2008
"Iran, they spend 1/100 of what we spend on the military. Iran, Cuba, Venezuela these countries are tiny compared to the Soviet Union. They don't pose a serious threat to us." - Barack Obama, May 18, 2008
"I think it's time for us to end the embargo on Cuba. I think this because, if you think about what is happening internationally, our planet is shrinking. And our biggest foreign policy challenge -- and it feeds into the battle on terrorism and it feeds into issues of trade and our economy -- is how do you make sure that other countries and developing nations are providing sustenance for their people, human rights for their people and the basic structure of government for their people and are stable and secure so that they can be partners in a bright future for the entire planet." - Barack Obama, 2008
"I've said repeatedly that I intend to close Guantanamo and I will follow through on that. I've said repeatedly that America doesn't torture. And I'm going to make sure we don't torture. Those are part and parcel of an effort to regain America's moral stature in the world." - Barack Obama, 60 Minutes (2008) Guantanamo is still open, the US is using foreign nations to carry out torture, when it isn't committing it itself.
"And as President I'm going to make it impossible for Congressmen or lobbyists to slip pork barrel projects or corporate welfare into laws while no one's looking. Because when I'm President meetings where laws are written will be more open to the public - no more secrecy - that's a commitment I make to you as President. When there's a tax bill being debated in Congress, you will know the names of the corporations that would benefit and how much money they would get. And we will put every corporate tax break and every pork barrel project online for every American to see. You'll know who asked for them and you can decide whether your representative is actually representing you." - Barack Obama, 2008
"....create jobs building solar panels and wind turbines and the fuel-efficient cars of tomorrow. Jobs that will help us end our dependence on foreign oil and may save the planet in the process. Rebuilding our crumbling roads and schools and bridges...." "....so we can have a new electricity grid and bring renewable energy to population centers here in Indiana and across America. Build an American infrastructure for the 21st century." - Barack Obama, 2008
"....that tired, worn-out old theory that says, that says we should give more to billionaires and big corporations and hope that prosperity will trickle-down on everybody else. The last thing... the last thing we can afford is four more years where no one in Washington is watching anyone on Wall Street because politicians and lobbyists killed common-sense regulations. Those are the theories that got us into this mess. They haven't worked and it is time for change, and that's why I'm running for President of the United States of America." - Barack Obama, 2008
"...bailout Wall Street banks. As President I will insure the financial rescue plan helps stop foreclosures and protects your money, instead of enriching CEOs. And I'll put in place the common-sense regulations that I've been calling for throughout this campaign. So that Wall Street can never cause a crisis like this again. That's the change we need." - Barack Obama, 2008
"It is absolutely true that NAFTA was a mistake." - Barack Obama, 2008
"It's been a long time coming. But tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election at this defining moment, change has come to America." - Barack Obama, November 4, 2008
Quotes excerpted from Barack Obama campaign speeches and interviews as shown in the documentary "Lifting the Veil: Obama and the Failure of Capitalist Democracy"
At a news conference Monday in Chile, President Barack Obama stated about his order to fire 110 Tomahawk missiles into Libya: "this was not an attempt at regime change, but a humanitarian effort to save civilian and rebel lives from Gaddafi’s threat to annihilate anyone who threatened his rule." March 21, 2011
"You will have your choice of a number of plans that offer a few different packages, but every plan would offer an affordable, basic package… And I believe one of these options needs to be a public option that will give people a broader range of choices and inject competition into the health care market, so that we can force waste out of the system and keep the insurance companies honest." ~President Barack Obama
Referring to the Bush Administration's use of phone companies to illegally spy on Americans: "We only know these crimes took place because insiders blew the whistle at great personal risk ... Government whistleblowers are part of a healthy democracy and must be protected from reprisal." ~ Presidential Candidate & U.S. Senator Barack Obama, 2008
"The President does not have the power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation." --Barack Obama, December 2007
What some do not realize is that the INDEPENDENTS bought into the Hope and Change message in 2008. They are much smarter today and it shows in the polls. Obama is TOAST.
speaking as an independent, to me Obama is ineffective, but "not crazy."
the Republicans, except Huntsman, come in various flavors of ideologically crazy that I don't want to deal with. I think they will be effective in enacting policies that make the financial crisis worse.
Quote:
In the end a trained monkey could take the Presidency from Obama in 2012. Just take one look at the polling of independents. They are polling strongly to the Republican candidate whoever that may be.
