I love people who blame Obama for the mess. The mess started with Bush.
In fact when the first cracks appeared, instead of dealing with the problem
he have those with a drivers licence, or registered voters which ever you
prefer, six hundred dollars to go shopping essentially.
Even worse the deregulation that began with Reagan, was shifted into over
drive. The Wall Street crowd and the financial houses misused the system
for nothing more than pure greed. The betrayed the citizens of the country
and they were rewarded with billions in bonuses for doing an act of essential
treason.
We keep hearing them say Obama is ruining the country and what are we going
to do? We are going to return the country to the same gang that did the destruction
prior to Obama coming to power. Is Obama curbing some of the powers these
greedy bugg**s once had? You bet he is, but at the same time there is no socialism
in America that is rhetorical nonsense. If Obama were running in Canada he would
be a right wing Liberal at best and probably more of a Red Tory as we used to call
them. Of course reasonable Red Tories, became extinct when Harper came to
office.
The Democrats are waiting and waiting and for what you ask? let us review the
field of Republicans.
Newt, the guy who called everyone else on the left immoral, was even more so, as
he was doing the same thing as Clinton. That didn't make Clinton any more
moral than Newt. The difference is Clinton didn't condemn others. Newt
was radical and when people realized he was nuts, he lost his credibility.
Romney A wonderful man that has left the impression he wants to make money
regardless of what is good for working people. He has left an elitest taste
in the mouths of the middle class. He is perceived as out of touch, and
boring as wine that had the cork left off it for a week. Flat is polite but its
worse and we know it.
Santorum Here is a guy who sticks to his guns, even though they are a hundred
and eighty degrees off site. people who are conservative and fundamentalist
or evangelical. But mainstream Americans raise their eyebrows like the
rest of us. They don't buy into the holy roly stuff and his glass ceiling is
more like Plexiglas, he won't be the leader for more than a day as it were.
Paul Ron is a nice old guy and some of what he says is true. But some of it is so
wacky it poses as quackery political medicine. Simple is one thing and then
there is simplistic and that is what Ron Paul all about.
Romney is associated with the rich and money brokers who hides behind the tax system
and he pays middle class tax bracket figures while gaining super riches. Santorum is a
limited choice at best, beyond the higher power rhetoric there is little more room for him
to grow on the political main stage
Ron Paul is not electable in the Republican leadership or the Presidential race.
And Newt is not to be trusted, a man who said he was going to be positive is having
difficulty with the truth, and the moral questions he himself once raised about others.
The Democrats can hardly contain themselves The Marx Brothers are on their way to
Florida to make fools of themselves. The Republicans seem to want to take ice picks
to a machine gun battle. God help them if they put up any of this crowd in the Main
event.

That's hardly what I'd call proof.

Just what qualifies one as being Christian, in your opinion?
John McCain: "I'm not born-again, I'm just a Christian".
I know that as an atheist you don't believe that there is a human spirit that has a re-birth when one repents and asks Jesus for forgiveness, but that is what a true Christian is. When you reject God and the spiritual nature of man, it's easy for you to conclude that anyone who says "I'm a Christian" is actually a Christian. However, even if you reject the spiritual nature of man and the concept of being born again, don't you think that it's rather naive to just take a person's word for it? If I told you "I'm an atheist" while in reality my beliefs were that both sides are unprovable so therefore I was unsure, would the statement "I'm an atheist" be accurate? No.
There's false converts, many of these would be people who think you have to be a "good person" to be saved.
There's people who are content with being Christian in name only like John McCain or Anders Breivik.
There's counterfeit religions who think there are Christian, but have twisted the message of Salvation unrecognizable.
As for Obama, he's a syncretist. Thanks to relativism, "his truth" enables him to at least act Muslim to appease people of that faith, while telling Americans that he's a Christian to appease them. Muslim, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, whatever he wants for that moment. "God" is a joke to him, a punchline.

I think Ten Penny has come as close to identifying the problem as anyone. There was a time when we had moral and ethical codes to follow, and if you fell short of those codes it was unacceptable. Lying and adultery were a couple of them, and people who committed them were lot deemed fit to be in leadership roles, because they weren't capable of setting a good example.

Not that they are any better than those who vote Democrat because there really is no difference between the two. It is just that the American voter has been hood winked into thinking there is to give the illusion of choice and democracy.

There are countless black people that have come forward to tell how Ron Paul helped them when he was a doctor and never charged for his services. You have been fooled.
If he was racist I don't think he would have done That.
The Compassion of Dr. Ron Paul - YouTube
As for not giving a **** about you. If you take bad decisions for yourself, He feels you should pay the price for it. That's called tough love.
That's how most people eventualy evolve into intelligent people. By learning from consequences and bad decisions.
Eliminating consequence = people never learn from there mistakes. Then keep making the same dumb decisions.
Funny how that's, precisely the problem our Elder posters are pointing out with the younger generations.
I guess your looking for a government that takes care of you from cradle to grave. Keeps you from ever evolving into your full potential.
You need a government that will bubble wrap you from your own stupidity. Tell you what you can and can't do.
Ok I understand. You have no idea what made the USA so great in the first place.
