I couldn't have said it better myself.....

palin was a moron, obviously harmless. incapable as a VP. but ryan is dangerous, he's the real deal, washington insider, connections and power to actually do alot of damage if he gets into the office. that FACT will scare alot more people than palin ever did. if obama beat mcain 53% to 46 %, quite the mandate i might add...
i predict obama will beat romney by an even wider margin. romney is unlikeable, and ryan is right wing zealot, at least mcain was a war hero, these 2 got nothing going for them now. except the die hard tea party vote, they already had them. and even the tea party doesnt like these 2 cuz they are too liberal!!!!! unbelievable!

I couldn't have said it better myself.....

To sum it up in a few sentences, the goverment is too big and has too much control. They want us dependent on them and they don't think "we the people" can make the proper decisions ourselves (they know what we need, but we don't type of shi*). Construction Unions are not the problem. It's the goverment unions, and the size of the goverment.

Palin looks like a rocket scientist compared to good ol boy big labor bitch Biden...

Let me clue you in on something.....it doesn't matter who is elected President next year. The following will continue to occur: Your currency will continue to be depleted until the debt our country has amassed is defaulted. See, people get excited about abortion, Social Security, etc etc. That's exactly what they want. They want you to run around worrying about things that really aren't that important in the grand scheme of things. Know what you should be worried about? The fact that you have to walk through a full body scanner to board an airplane. The fact that the gov can track your every move from a cell phone. The fact that you need a "license" to carry a gun, even though it is a constitutional right. And don't get me started on taxes. What good is social security going to do you when the money you get is worth pennies on the dollar? I think Ryan's a CS for sure, however, he had a right to take that check. That is what I don't understand about liberals.....You think that because certain people have become wealthy, they should take care of the people who are not. That is crazy. Whatever happened to free market principals & taking care of yourself?

vp debate wont change the outcome, if ryan crucifies biden, great!! it will just reinforce the fact that he is way to the right of everyone on some major issues.
romney selecting him just revealed what his true platform is based on, and that platform will drive independents back into obama's open arms.
if ryan was electable he would have been running on his own. he was not and is not electable with his stance on so many major issues.
he is only doing this to appear strong and set himself up for future elections.
most people are afraid of what ryan would do to them, sell them out to corporate interests and then suck them dry. all to benefit the elite 1%.
99% might be stupid but they outnumber the 1%, 99 to 1. a few 99%ers are delusional and think they are 1%ers, but its safe to say a majority of the middle class know they are working class, and know that romney ryan dont represent them, at all.

LOL wow it sounds like the libs are scared to death of Ryan, and why?
because he's one of the few politicians in DC who is actually willing to cut up Obama's CHINESE CREDIT CARD and pull in the reins on their runaway government spending INSANITY.

THIS IS WHY WE NEED PAUL RYAN ---->

If Mr. Obama wins re-election, and his budget projections prove accurate, the National Debt will top $20 trillion in 2016, the final year of his second term. That would mean the Debt increased by 87 percent, or $9.34 trillion, during ONLY TWO TERMS!!!

Hey Lexy, if you represent the 99%, then how come 99% of the people posting on this thread disagree with you? BTW, when you & your occuCRY brethren were calling for people to join the "movement", is this what you meant?...

Looking at how aggressively China is buying up our coal and iron ore in Australia and increasingly stealing intellectual property all over the world ( copies of every sort) , then the Chinese claiming vast areas in the Sea's around the Phillipines as their own. I believe that one day we maybe fighting a war with china over "resources" , no one seems willing to say no to China's ambitions. Yet our Governments keep saying nice things about China to keep the "money" flowing.

Speaking of the auto industry;
Obama's dumbazz VP thinks we're still in the 20th century...

President Obama is proud of his bailout of General Motors. That's good, because, if he wins a second term, he is probably going to have to bail GM out again...

NIGHT WATCHMAN

Once upon a time the government had a vast scrap yard in the middle of a desert.

Congress said, "Someone may steal from it at night."

So they created a night watchman position and hired a person for the job.

Then Congress said, "How does the watchman do his job without instruction?"

So they created a planning department and hired two people, one person to write the instructions, and one person to do time studies.

Then Congress said, "How will we know the night watchman is doing the tasks correctly?"

So they created a Quality Control department and hired two people. One was to do the studies and one was to write the reports.

Then Congress said, "How are these people going to get paid?"

So they created two positions: a time keeper and a payroll officer then hired two people.

Then Congress said, "Who will be accountable for all of these people?"

So they created an administrative section and hired three people, an Administrative Officer, Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary.

Then Congress said, "We have had this command in operation for one year and we are $918,000 over budget, we must cut back."

So they laid-off the night watchman.

NOW slowly, let it sink in.

Quietly, we go like sheep to slaughter. Does anybody remember the reason given for the establishment of the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY during the Carter administration?

Anybody?

Anything?

No?

Didn't think so!

Bottom line is, we've spent several hundred billion dollars in support of an agency, the reason for which very few people who read this can remember!

Ready??

It was very simple... and at the time, everybody thought it very
appropriate.

The Department of Energy was instituted on 8/04/1977, TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL.

Hey, pretty efficient, huh???

AND NOW IT'S 2012 -- 35 YEARS LATER -- AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS "NECESSARY" DEPARTMENT IS AT $24.2 BILLION A YEAR. IT HAS 16,000 FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES; AND LOOK AT THE JOB IT HAS DONE!

(THIS IS WHERE YOU SLAP YOUR FOREHEAD AND SAY, "WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?")
34 years ago 30% of our oil consumption was foreign imports. Today 70% of our oil consumption is foreign imports.

Ah, yes -- good old Federal bureaucracy.

NOW, WE HAVE TURNED OVER THE BANKING SYSTEM, HEALTH CARE, AND THE AUTO INDUSTRY TO THE SAME GOVERNMENT?

Hello!! Anybody Home?

Signed....The Night Watchman

Nice some serious common Sense

NOT CONSERVATIVE, not liberals or progressives. Somewhere in the twilight zone. I knew that people like jsiouan, 123456, and Lex existed. I have simply not heard of three of them together but one other time in my life - near the Cahulawassee River in 1972.
