Confident Huntsman campaigns 'til the ball drops

Republican presidential candidate and former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman greets voters before speaking at a town hall meeting Saturday in Thornton, N.H.

 

 

HANCOCK, HUDSON & CONCORD, NH -- As an increasingly confident Jon Huntsman campaigned across New Hampshire 'til the final hours of New Year's Eve hitting house party after house party, he predicted that the New Hampshire primary will come down to a two candidates: himself and Mitt Romney.

"You know what, in the end, it is going to be a two man race. You just wait until next week rolls around," Huntsman said at a packed house party in Hancock. "I know I'm the underdog but New Hampshire loves an underdog!"


As he gave speeches from sun-up to sundown, the former Utah governor seemed to find a new, more concise rhythm. With it, he vigorously trumpeted his foreign policy experience as ambassador to China, telling voters, "We need someone who understand the complicated world. Because it is not going to get less complicated anytime soon."

He also swiped Romney directly. When asked by a voter in Concord why he would be a better choice over front-runner Romney, Huntsman replied, "How about a consistent core?"

Huntsman later called Romney a "good man" but quickly added, "I haven't been on three sides of every issue."

Huntsman -- who opted this summer to skip the Iowa caucuses entirely -- has made a grassroots gamble on the Granite State, where he hopes to attract a large number of independent and undeclared voters. His seven-event march across New Hampshire was a classic example of retail campaigning on a shoestring budget. The strategy has begun to yield larger audiencesafter a summer of thinly attended events. However, due to anemic fundraising, Huntsman has been forced to rely on outsiders to put television advertisements on the air on his behalf.

Friday, his town-by-town effort was bolstered by a $300,000 ad buy from the pro-Huntsman Our Destiny PAC, an unaffiliated super PAC that has received contributions from his billionaire father who is a chemicals magnate in Utah. This was the third major buy by Our Destiny. Yet, in the most recent New Hampshire poll by NBC News/Marist, Huntsman remains in fourth place behind Romney, Ron Paul, and Newt Gingrich.

When asked about his lagging poll numbers versus his high intensity efforts, Huntsman balked.

"I don't want to do what Bachmann, Perry, Cain and everybody else did.

They've all gone from 25 percent down to two. I don't want that. No way, no how. I want a steady substantive rise based on real ideas," he said in Hancock.

Sunday, Huntsman kicks off the new year as the only major candidate in New Hampshire with three campaign stops.

So, you've figured out that since Dr Paul has been having great success doing it that way, you might try it?

Can anyone say "Too little too late?"

Sorry but Huntsman is the best of them all, Repubacons balked at Huntsman all because he was appointed by Obama as ambassador to China. The Tea Retards don't like him because he will not sign that pledge to Grover Norquist. Huntsman is a man of integrity and honor and he doesn't like tea and l respect him for that. The GOP voters are fools- this man is your best bet, don't be blinded by the Kocheads.

Huntsman has a legitimate chance to beat Obama, and draw independent voters. Too bad he's not "right enough" for the Tea Party.

Ron Paul and his isolationist policies make him unelectable.

Ron Paul also has a decade worth of racist newsletters that are attributed to his name. That won't endear him to the significant population of the USA that isn't white (in addition to pissing off a lot of equality-minded whites).

Huntsman is the best candidate the Repubs have come up with and the only candidate qualified to deal with China. He's not perfect, he doesn't seem to have the same deep acquaintance with America's problems that Ron Paul and occasionally O'Bachmann have but he was reelected to the governor's house in Utah with almost 78% of the vote and consistently got miraculous approval ratings of 70%+. Huntsman is, by far, the least of the evils.

      Has anyone noticed that the two GOP runners maintaining traction are the two who ran last time?????

      They are a known quantity, which is a big advantage.

      Paul will not get the nod. He has ideas that Dems agree with. Death sentence. His economic ideas would, in fact, destroy the global economy. Taking a trillion dollars out of the budget in one year would cause chaos. This constitutes 7% of GDP. A 7% drop in GDP means massive layoffs in an already shaky economy. This would be the worst drop in GDP in over 25 years. The first quarter of 2009 saw a drop annualized at 5.7%. You saw what that got us. If we have another round of 2009-10, Europe, which is already playing brinksmanship, is a gone goose.

      None of this addresses his desire to quash the Fed. Basically, he wants the pre FDR banking system. He also wants the gold standard back. Playing with our currency in this way is beyond dangerous. If the Fed gets killed, I'd never put my money in the bank again, because it could disappear overnight in a run, and it would, because killing the Fed would cause a run on every bank in the country.

      We have fundamental problems which require addressing. The elephant in the room is a sustainable economy. After that, we have the need to develop clean energy, and there is the need for jobs and major infrastructure overhaul. This means dumping the Bush tax cuts. This should be done on the well to do first, but when the economy improves, we will all have to pay more, and it may be that rates on the wealthiest will have to be raised again.

      The Bush tax cuts are responsible for a huge chunk of the deficit. This money has to be recovered to pay down the debt.

      When the economy improves, there will have to be cuts in government. Infrasructure spending will have to go up, sooner rather than later, and that will have to be sustained. Money will have to be pumped into education. We are going to pay for the cuts of the last few years for a generation. Historically, the deficits created by budget cuts are never made up. Unless this changes, the costs down the road will be enormous. More should be done to ensure young adults graduate college without a crushing debtload. That debt is a drag on the economy, as well as an unfair burden. The military budget needs to take a big whack. It is twice what it should be, and with wars winding down, there is no reason to continue exorbitant expenditures. Medicare should be re-evaluated, but rather than paying doctors less, there should be requirements to do more with low tech solutions, including diet and exercise. There should be clearer guidelines for expensive tests, especially MRI and CAT scan.

      In any case, there's more than one way to go about this. Turning the economy upside down should not be one of them. No one would like living in a pre 1910 world in terms of labor laws, et al, except the rich. ANd there would be even fewer of them after a while because those laws helped this country grow, by helping to increase the middle class. No middle class= no economic growth. Not a good plan. The free market does not exist, and it shouldn't because it doesn't work. Boom and bust economies mean lots of misery. Putting a stop to speculation before it gets out of hand is a necessity. It is speculation that causes most downturns. Time to stop worshipping at the altar of wealth and do something constructive.

      A 7% DROP in Gross Domestic Production

      GDP (Gross Domestic Production) is INCOME...

      Dr Paul is going to take 1 trillion Dollars out of SPENDING!!!!, This is how you trim a budget. (at least it is how I trim mine)

      SPENDING, you know like those wars that you democrats have been complaining for years are draining the money, military spending that is more than twice what all the other countries on the planet spend COMBINED!

      Obviously you haven't a clue about anything Dr Paul has proposed and are spewing misinformation and lies.

      And what, pray tell, will the $1 trillion be cut from? Social Security? No. The American People have been paying into it their whole lives. Medicare? No. It's unthinkable to even consider letting the poor die of cheaply-treatable diseases. We could stop having wars in the Middle East, but the Teabags would never go for that. You could restore the tax structure to the Clinton levels, but the rich demand a free ride. You could tax the Church, but the Teabags won't go for that either.

I realize these men have disparate wealth comparatively to your own salaries, but we're running out of time here, and I know that you will put your vote forth for the better person.

        Please refrain from encouraging Ayotte or Shaheen as a running mate for any presidential candidate and well...you know why.

          Huntsman is too sane and reasonable for the modern Christian GOP. He simply doesn't hate his fellow human being NEARLY enough. He also doesn't want to turn the citizens into corporate serfs. He's also not interested in creating a Christian Taliban government. So... he doesn't stand a chance in 2012.

          Personally, I think the Republican Party should be relabeled the "Corporate Christian Theocracy Party" or CCTP. It would be truth in advertising.

          No actually, what IS TRULY UN-CHRISTIAN (as if a Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Left wing non-church going, atheist, Democrat Kook like you, would know ANYTHING about Christian values & beliefs in the first place) and what is also "mentally ill" is being a faithful servant of a "church" for TWENTY YEARS whose Pastor (Jeremiah Wright) preaches blatant hate of other races and glorifies genocidal racists like Nation of Islam Leader Louis Farrakhan and goes with that blinded-by-color nut to visit the "late-great" now former Leader of Libya, Colonel Muammar Gaddafi.

          A hate-filled Pastor who stated "God D*mn America" right from his pulpit and even had the audacity to blame America for the 9/11 Attacks "America's Chickens coming home to roost!!" just a few days afterwards. Then for B. Hussein Obama to go to Saudi Arabia before their Sultan and also to Japan before their Emperor and bow way down low to those un-elected monarchs is a slap in the face to freedom, democracy and the American way.

          Don't you dare try to call out somebody who is rightfully calling that Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Left wing Kook Democrat POTUS we have now, un-American, when B. Hussein Obama, the public supporter and even encourager of the Ground Zero Islamic Mosque is called what he truly is, ya Communist!!!

          JB: You should read the Bible sometime if you are a Christian. Jesus was a lot farther to the Left than you might like. He said that it's very difficult for rich people to go to heaven. He commanded his followers to give spare clothing to people who were without cloaks or sandals. He called the religious right a "whitewashed tomb". He was totally against loud prayers in public. He told his followers to pay their taxes.

          I hate to have to point this out to you, but as far as being a supporter, why don't you look up Norquist. His wife's family is Muslim and Norquist himself is a supporter of the Mosque as well as Muslims in general (and gays as well). Almost makes me want to like the guy. Just look up info about him, you may be surprised. And all the candidates, except Huntsman, have signed his pledge, as have most republican candidates. So, if being a Muslim supporter is your criteria, good luck finding republicans to support!

          These Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Left Wing, Democrat Kooks who post on these threads, think that the American people will just do what THEY WISH we all would do and that's simply "ignore" B. Hussein Obama's THREE YEARS OF FAILURE AS POTUS, INCREASE OF AMERICAN JOBLESSNESS AND SPENDING MORE U.S. TAXPAYER MONEY AND DRIVING UP THE FEDERAL BUDGET DEFICIT AND U.S. NATIONAL DEBT, MORE THAN ALMOST ALL THE OTHER U.S. PRESIDENTS BEFORE HIM...COMBINED!!!

          Now if the U.S. Economy were going great and if the U.S. Unemployment Rate was like 5%, if the U.S. Housing Market was turned around and home values were no longer upside down with their mortgages and home foreclosures were way down and if American workers' salaries were way up and health care and health insurance costs were way down, we all know these Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Left Wing, Democrat Kooks would be singing Obama's praises and telling about all his positive accomplishments as POTUS and how B. Hussein Obama saved the American people from former President Bush's horrible "inherited" economy. THEY WOULDN'T BE GIVING FORMER PRESIDENT BUSH THE CREDIT FOR OBAMA'S NOW THREE YEARS IN OFFICE IF THE ABOVE POSITIVE THINGS WERE HAPPENING WITH REGARDS TO THE U.S. ECONOMY, WOULD THEY?

          So if they wouldn't be giving former President Bush credit if the CURRENT U.S. Economy were going great with all the above things I mentioned, why wouldn't they be giving B. Hussein Obama the credit for making the U.S. Economy WORSE THAN EVER, with his failed policies and presidency IN THREE YEARS...hhmm??!!

          They foolishly and ignorantly think that THEY ARE in the majority thinking of the American Electorate and that the American Voters next Nov. 6th, 2012 will simply "ignore" B. Hussein Obama's entire FOUR YEAR TERM AS POTUS and just "blame Bush" to re-elect him. Ha!!!

          I knew there was a lot of recreational drug use amongst the Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Left Wing, Democrat Kooks, I just didn't know it was so widespread!!! Anyway, all the more wailing they'll be doing when on Election Night 2012, B. Hussein Obama will be on Int'l TV giving his Concession Speech to the new REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT-ELECT. I can't wait and it can't come soon enough.

          I'm so tired of this Inexperienced and Unqualified, Socialist/Marxist "Community Organizer" being in the White House and not having a d**ned clue as to what the h*ll he's doing and taking all of his multi-week family vacations b/c he likes to be President, but doesn't like the governing part. What an abject failure the B. Hussein Obama presidency has been. He needs to and will be sent back to Chicago come Election Night 2012.

          And if you don't like Obama taking vacations, I guess you were equally angry when Bush would take off entire MONTHS, right?

          Obama's policies have been identical to your Savior's policies (Bush's) about 80% of the time, so I don't know what you're griping about.

          If B. Hussein Obama couldn't handle the job of being POTUS, then he should've never run for it in the first place. I mean this is the Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat, "Community Organizer" who promised that he would cut the U.S. Federal Deficit IN HALF by the end of his first term (He's doubled it in less than THREE YEARS) as POTUS.

          He promised that his Obamacare, socialized medicine scheme, would decrease the cost of health care and health insurance once passed and since its passage, the cost of health care and health insurance has gone nothing, but UP.

          B. Hussein Obama also promised he would close down GITMO, which he never did and won't ever do.
          He also promised that if the U.S. Economy didn't turn around in three years, from him taking office as POTUS, then his presidency would likely be a "one term deal." (See YouTube) Not only has the U.S. Economy NOT TURNED AROUND, but it's gotten exponentially worse since this no-good, inexperienced, unqualified, Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat, "Community Organizer" took office.

          Now what IS REALISTIC, is instead of making excuses and apologies for "poor ole Barack," why not hold him ACCOUNTABLE for his THREE YEARS OF ABJECT FAILURE AS POTUS??!! If you Left wing, Nut Job Kooks were so wise and knowledgeable in the "truths of life" why would you let this Left wing skunk hold the most powerful office in the world, much less the United States of America, a minute longer than you had, as an American voter, with his FAILED performance on the U.S. Economy as POTUS, so far by voting for him?

          Neither the Republican party, nor Fox News, nor Rush Limbaugh, nor Sean Hannity, nor Ann Coulter, nor etc. made those promises of JOBS, ECONOMIC PROSPERITY FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS AND HEALTHCARE COSTS BEING REDUCED FOR ALL, B. Hussein Obama made ALL those promises back in 2008.

          And when B. Hussein Obama made those promises, he never promised the American people, "blame Bush" strategies, he never promised the American people excuses for the U.S. Economy and Joblessness not improving under his non-leadership, he never promised the American people that he would simply demonize and dehumanize his political opponents and/or allow his political cronies to do so, like Jimmy Hoffa Jr., without speaking out against that. He promised the American people Jobs, Jobs, Jobs and at least an improvement in the U.S. Economy, Housing Market and declining property values, that we'd already see AFTER THREE YEARS in the White House. The reason we don't see any improvement in the U.S. Economy is simple, his policies don't work!!

          Admit it already. B. Hussein Obama is one of the worst U.S. Presidents in the history of this nation and certainly in most of our lifetimes. This guy makes Jimmy Carter looks like a good, sound, fiscal conservative, for goodness sakes. STOP MAKING EXCUSES, HOLD B. HUSSEIN OBAMA RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS OWN PRESIDENCY. IF THE U.S. ECONOMY WAS GOING REALLY GOOD RIGHT NOW, AND JOB CREATION WAS WAY UP, WOULD YOU BE GIVING FORMER PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH THE CREDIT FOR IT? OR WOULD YOU BE GIVING B. HUSSEIN OBAMA THE CREDIT FOR IT?

          SO IF YOU WOULD GIVE OBAMA THE CREDIT IF THE U.S. ECONOMY WERE GOING GREAT RIGHT NOW AFTER HIS THREE YEARS AS POTUS, THEN YOU SHOULD ALSO GIVE HIM THE BLAME FOR THE U.S. ECONOMY REMAINING AWFUL RIGHT NOW AND EVEN BECOMING EXPONENTIALLY WORSE UNDER HIS NON-LEADERSHIP..PERIOD...END OF STORY.

          I got some news for you Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat Kooks, NOBODY OWES YOU JACK S**T, INCLUDING A JOB!!! It's people like you that put people like our Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat, "Community Organizer" President in office in 2008.

          Stop complaining and being so envious of people who are smarter, work harder and are far more economically successful than you and start working just as hard or harder to make the wealth that they have, if you're so "angry" about them having wealth.

          And since when does being wealthy in America automatically equal being a crook, as you Left Wing Kooks say? And when does being poor automatically equal being honest & loveable as you say? You all's talking points are coming straight out of the Communist Manifesto pals and the sad part about that is, a lot of no-good, lazy, jealous, and envious Americans like you, just want to simply re-distribute wealth that you've never earned, nor ever deserved. All just to get back at "rich whitey." People who believe as you do are called THE DEMOCRAT PARTY (& their robot minions).

          If you're tired of being poor and worthless, GO OUT AND START BUSTING YOUR BUTT AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT. DON'T EXPECT THE U.S. GOVERNMENT OR WORSE THE U.S. TAXPAYERS, TO DO IT FOR YOU, YOU MARXIST, SOCIALIST, COMMUNIST SCHLEPS!!!

Hussein Obama's, the great "Community-Organizer-in-Chief" job performance on the U.S. Economy since becoming POTUS in January 2009?
          Simple as that, can you give an honest grading of B. Hussein Obama's job performance on the U.S. Economy?

          Can any of you scared, cowardly Socialist Democrats do just that?

          I can in one word. FAILURE, F - GRADE and imo, I don't believe an F - Graded POTUS deserves re-election to another four year term in the White House. With your grade, does B. Hussein Obama deserve re-election? Yes or No?

          My fellow Conservative Republicans, WE CANNOT ALLOW the Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrats change the subject from B. Hussein Obama's entire THREE YEARS OF FAILURE AS POTUS, nor let our great country forget on Nov. 6th, 2012. We also CANNOT ALLOW the Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrats to make the 2012 General Elections to be about the GOP Nominee, instead of B. Hussein Obama's Presidential Term of FAILURE while in office.

          We have to continue to remind the American Electorate of the current state of the U.S. Economy and joblessness and remind the voters that Obama has been in office THREE YEARS and soon to be FOUR YEARS and nothing has improved during this term in the White House. We have to tell the American electorate any way that we can, that B. Hussein Obama hates this country and does not want it to rebound economically, succeed, nor be a leader in the world for freedom, democracy, capitalism, free markets and the private sector being stronger than the federal government where the people have all the power, instead of the feds whom are there to serve us.

          We have to NOT ALLOW the Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrats to "change the subject" or try to distract the American electorate from focusing ON OBAMA's MISERABLE RECORD OF FAILURE WITH REGARDS TO THE U.S. ECONOMY AND JOBLESSNESS. We must force them to do what they already know themselves they cannot do and that's to DEFEND B. HUSSEIN OBAMA'S MISERABLE RECORD AS POTUS.

          We also must not allow them to just "blame Bush" and then quickly change the subject to attack the GOP Nominee, the GOP party, Conservatism, Christianity, American Traditionalism, Our Philosophy on the "Truths of Life" and ANY prior administration's record. MAKE THEM DEFEND OBAMA'S RECORD AND B. HUSSEIN OBAMA'S RECORD ALONE.

          They've even graded B. Hussein Obama themselves on this very thread when I asked them and the best grade they could give him was a "C" (a horrible grade from his own robot followers and one they knew they couldn't give any higher to, as they would look like the foolish, lying, robot followers that they are) and yet still posted their ridiculous beliefs that a "C" Graded POTUS is worth re-electing, even in a horrible U.S. Economy and skyrocketing U.S. Unemployment rate. Thus making those posters "rambling defenses" of B. Hussein Obama look foolish and biased as they truly are. Make these Left Wing, Leftist, Liberal, Socialist Marxist, Democrat Kooks defend this CLOWN & "Community Organizer" President and they'll be stumbling over their foolish a**es trying to defend what they know to be a FAILURE of an inexperienced and unqualified POTUS.

          The problem with your pointlessly sadistic diatribe is that it fails to acknowledge how much worse things would have been for those less affluent if John McCain was elected President. The economy would have still tanked - Bush's policies helped set that up - and McCain would have been fare more beholden to right-wing interests, thereby resulting in far more suffering and misery for the poor and middle class.

          I dare say that the reason by Obama's three years have been a failure is because he continued TOO MANY of Bush's failed policies. Obama isn't nearly progressive enough for me. A true progressive would have slapped the banks down hard and had them begging for mercy. A true progressive would have imposed stiff fines on corporations that outsource American jobs. A true progressive would tax the Church since the Church has become a GOP standard bearer and no longer represents Jesus in any recognizable way. Obama is basically "Bush Lite" and not a "socialist" in any way, shape, or form.

          Yeah, Obama has kept his promises to fix the American Economy & improve joblessness (NOT!!) and to run a much more transparent and honest (Chicago-style, pay-for-play, actually) method of governing. So, let's not forget, in order to pass Obamacare, after B. Hussein Obama promised that those healthcare bill debates would be televised live on C-SPAN (HA!! WHAT A LIE THAT WAS!!), he implemented shady, backroom deals like the Cornhusker Kickback with Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat Senator Ben Nelson, the Louisiana Purchase with Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat Senator Mary Landrieu and the Florida Gator-aid Deal with Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat Senator Bill Nelson (which at the time, B. Hussein Obama was pressured, by the American people, to back out of). In addition to that, here's some other slimy, shady happenings that occurred with the passage of Obamacare...Chicago-style, pay-for-play politics at its finest!!

          Scott Matheson, brother of Congressman Jim Matheson (D, Utah), was suddenly nominated to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit. Obediently, Congressman Matheson went from a "no" vote on Obamacare to "Undecided."

          A new hospital in Connecticut for morally-challenged Senator Chris Dodd

          Roughly ten billion U.S. Taxpayer dollars in community health centers to buy off Vermont's Bernie Sanders

          A threat to take away Connecticut Senator Joe Lieberman's committee chairmanship unless he fell into line with regards to Obamacare

          The above are just a few of the slimy tactics, bribes, kickbacks and payoffs, that B. Hussein Obama pulled on the unwitting American people who have never polled as a majority FOR Obamacare, but have to have it completely repealed!! NOT TO MENTION THAT THE SUPER-MAJORITY, DEMOCRAT-CONTROLLED U.S. CONGRESS AND PRESIDENT EXEMPTED THEMSELVES AND ONLY A FEW LIBERAL AFL/CIO LEFTIST, LIBERAL, SOCIALIST, MARXIST, DEMOCRAT LABOR UNIONS FROM HAVING TO PARTICIPATE IN OBAMACARE AT ALL, WHILE THE REST OF US, U.S. CITIZENS ARE FEDERAL GOV'T MANDATED TO!!!

          I always knew that Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrats love to accuse others of what they themselves are 100X more guilty of, but the nerve & audacity of a lot of you Left Wing, Socialist, Marxist Kooks to accuse the GOP of being nefarious, unethical, corporatists would be so LAUGHABLE, if it wasn't such a downright, bold-faced lie!!!

          B. Hussein Obama and his Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat party, and left wing kooky robot followers who post on these PMS-NBC Threads are the most unethical, most nefarious, most notoriously foul and corrupt LIARS in U.S. Political History!!!

          Another thing your ridiculously myopic and desperate ranting ignores is how a McCain-Palin administration, beholden as it would have been to the industries that thrive on war, would have likely drawn our nation into even more conflict, not for moral purpose but rather contrary to moral purpose. McCain-Palin would have likely deliberately antagonized other nations, perhaps even following in the footsteps of Bush by claiming there were weapons of mass-destruction when there were none, and thereby modeling the kind of self-centered, self-gratifying, bullying behavior that is becoming a major social ill in our nation, instead of modeling leadership and honor. So in addition to how much worse things would have been for the poor and middle class had McCain-Palin had won, things would have been yet-even worse for everyone who doesn't directly benefit from the blood-thirsty immorality of making profit from killing people for no good reason.

Your disrespect toward these American heroes embodies a depth of immorality that cannot even be adequately characterized.

                "Please ignore my entire 1st four-year term as POTUS, since that was a miserable failure and I did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to strengthen the U.S. economy, lower the U.S. unemployment rate, help the toxic housing market with underwater mortgages and increase property values, nor anything to stop record home foreclosure rates, nor stop a record number of people from being on welfare, food stamps and medicaid. But hey, I did let gays, lesbians, and transgender, sexually deviant, mentally deranged people openly serve in our U.S. Military without care what that would do to morale and/or National Security!!!"

                While many people do believe that Obama is and will continue to be a good President, let's put all that aside for your benefit for a second. Even if he isn't and wasn't, we are faced not with a decision "Obama: Yes/No". Instead, we are faced with a decision (essentially) between two people, most likely Obama and Romney. I have great affinity for Romney since he was the man who signed into the first mandatory health insurance law in the nation, thereby leading the charge toward health care reform. However, look closer: He now repudiates the greatest accomplishment of his life. He flip-flops with reckless abandon, and what's worse, he flip-flops from the more moral perspective to the less moral perspective! He flip-flops from compassion to selfishness. He flip-flops from honor to disrespect. So even with your inanely self-centered and vitriolic appraisal of Obama, your alternative would be worse. When faced with two evils, as you must, if you are an honorable and moral person, see that you are faced with, you reasonable must chose the lesser evil, even though that is Obama.

                I didn't ignore it. You stated something that, at the core of it, was correct. Why would you expect there needs to be a reply.

                Regardless, you were actually wrong (again - big surprise). Monica Lewinsky is seven years old than Chelsea Clinton. So even when you try to write something factual, you cannot seem to get it right. You seem to be utterly bewildered about how to present your thoughts to other people.

                Your comments also fail to acknowledge that Bill Clinton is, by far, the best President of the last fifty years. He led the nation through its greatest period of prosperity and ascendancy of regard. His personal indiscretions were indeed between himself and his wife, and the nation did him a despicable disservice by forcing him to discuss his personal relations publicly. I don't forgive his lying, but I do much more strongly condemn the actions taken by prosecutors that put him in the position where he lied. It was an unforgivable invasion into someone's private life for petty political gain.

                I get the impression that you celebrate when something like that is inflicted on someone you hate, and express outrage when something like that is inflicted on someone you like. That kind of self-centered, flip-floppy opportunism is one of the biggest problems in this country. It is, I believe, a reflection of the moral bankruptcy inherent in ego-centrism and myopic, self-serving fanaticism.

                Regardless, we're not talking about Clinton, or Edwards, or Bush - we're talking about President Obama, unassailable in his fidelity to Michelle Obama. He is the picture of true family values, respect for his wife, and honor. Meanwhile, we cannot say the same thing about all his Republican opponents. The more you raise the issue of infidelity, the more opportunity you give me to point out to you how much better the President is than some of the folks you'd have us consider instead. Very very foolish of you.

                Your rhetoric seems desperately tainted by blind negative perceptions of the reality. The actual reality is that the nation is divided roughly evenly down the middle: About half of Americans acknowledge the morality of compassion and consideration for others that President Obama supports, and about half of Americans advocate the immorality of ego-centric greed and self-centeredness that you seem to support. With a 50/50 split like that, it is important to realize that instead of wildly flailing around like you can get what you want by fiat, you need to open your eyes, ears and mind to the opposing viewpoint and seek a compromise approach that respect everyone's strongly-held convictions. Only a child thinks that their desires are the only important aspects of the discussion.

                Despite B. Hussein Obama-Endorsed 'Occupy' Protesters, Socialism is Looked Upon as Negative by 60% of Americans. AND ONLY LOOKED UPON POSITIVE BY 31% OF AMERICANS. Aha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!

                According to the Pew Research Center, not even the B. Hussein Obama-endorsed 'Occupy' protesters can change the fact that Americans look upon Socialism as negative and Capitalism positive. Even with all of B. Hussein Obama's rhetoric and railing against Capitalism, he loses the battle.

                Socialism was looked upon negative by 60% and favorable by only 31% (that 31% is you Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat, Left wing Kooks who post on these PMS-NBC threads). Meanwhile, Capitalism had a 50% positive rating and a 40% negative one.

                The recent Occupy Wall Street protests have focused public attention on what organizers see as the excesses of America's free market system, but perceptions of Capitalism – and even of Socialism – have changed little since early 2010 despite the recent tumult.

                The American public's take on Capitalism remains mixed, with just slightly more saying they have a positive (50%) than a negative (40%) reaction to the term. That's largely unchanged from a 52% to 37% balance of opinion in April 2010.

                As stated at Weasel Zippers, looks like Newsweek was wrong, we are all not Socialists now. Imagine that, Newsweek was wrong again. Ha!!!

It shows very well how immoral and harmful the Republican Party would be, given that you're an icon of the kind of sentiment that they regularly evoke.

                I post lies WaltDIS? You're a complete blind-following sheep of the Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Left wing Kook Democrat party, if you can't see that you've posted nothing but your stupid "opinions" about what Senator John McCain and former AK Governor Sarah Palin "would have done" if they were elected in 2008. How the h*ll do you know what they "would have done" ya communist?!

                I've posted my sources in a lot of my prior postings, have you done that? NO!! You simply regurgitate what you see and read on the PMS-NBC News Channel & Website and what you hear on National Public Radio. ALL LOW-RATED TV, INTERNET & RADIO STATIONS, I might add. The only lies are the ones who try to divide and pit one American versus another based on race, color, creed, religion, socio-economic status and economic class. And that is B. Hussein Obama and his Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Left wing Kook Democrat party with their idiotic blind-sheep-followers like you. Nuff Said!!

                B. Hussein Obama has NEVER held a real private sector job in his life, nor has he ever been a decision maker (except to choose which socks he's gonna wear in the morning), nor has he ever been an executive in his life.

                B. Hussein Obama is the most unqualified, inexperienced, Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat President in American History. America CANNOT AFFORD four more years of B. Hussein Obama. He's the worst President ever and hasn't a d*mned clue on how to govern a society as sophisticated and as complicated as the United States of America. All he knows how to do is "community organize" one group of Americans versus another, based on class, socio-economic status, ethnicity, color, religion and political affiliation. He's horrible, awful and WILL BE DEFEATED on Nov. 6th, 2012. That is a guarantee!!!

                Americans see B. Hussein Obama as the Farthest Presidential Candidate from Them Ideologically Including All Republicans.

                B. Hussein Obama, the most out of touch candidate for American ideology.

                According to a recent Gallup poll, which should cause yet more concern for President B. Hussein Obama for the 2012 elections - Americans see Obama as the farthest candidate from them ideologically than any of the current GOP 2012 primary candidates. Should this really come as a surprise as B. Hussein Obama is the most Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Left wing, Kook and polarizing U.S. President ever elected?!

                Although many Americans are not not sure of some of the Republican candidates, they have had THREE YEARS to figure out exactly what Obama's ideology is. 57% consider Obama very liberal/liberal, while 15% polled (who were smoking crack when asked) stating that Obama was very conservative/conservative. If Obama has not yet convinced America that he is not "very liberal" at this point, it is a lost cause. America knows exactly what B. Hussein Obama is and stands for, there is no fooling the American voting public like in 2008.

                What should further trouble Obama is that Independents consider B. Hussein Obama the farthest away from their ideology as well. However, just how out of touch are Democrats with the main stream of society? They think B. Hussein Obama is spot on with their ideology. Ha!!!

                This is coupled with other polling data showing Obama loses a hypothetical match up with Mitt Romney 45% to 39%.

                B. Hussein Obama's job approval rating is also back down to 41% approval – 50% disapproval as per Gallup. See ya at the polls on November 6th, 2012!!! Can you say, B. Hussein Obama Concession Speech to the new Republican President-Elect on Election Night??!! Hee-hee-hee!!!

                Indigo, why are you even bothering to respond to that idiot? Don't lower yourelf to his level, try and bring him up to your level. If that doesn't work, and I doubt it will with this one, than ignore him. When he doesn't evoke a rise out of anyone he'll eventually grow up and dry up and blow away.

                  Aha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!! Oh yeah, B. Hussein Obama will wipe the floor with any of the GOP Contenders in the Nov. 6th, 2012 General Election (NOT!).

                  Robert Reich Predicts Hillary Clinton Will Replace Biden as VEEP on 2012 Obama Re-election Ticket

                  B. Hussein Obama's political shell game - Robert Reich predicts Left wing Kook & has-been U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton will be in and Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat, Left wing Kook Vice President Joe Biden will be out as Veep on B. Hussein Obama's 2012 Presidential re-election ticket.

                  This is certainly not something that we have not heard rumored or speculated before. However, according to Reich he has no inside information to come to this conclusion, only a hunch. Reich states that B. Hussein Obama needs to stir the passions and enthusiasms of a dis-illusioned Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat, Left wing Kooky base and an increasing poor U.S. economy & poor American jobless rate.

                  In other words Reich is saying that B. Hussein Obama needs to create a diversion (distraction from his abject failure of a presidency) and play a political shell game so that "We the People" will pay more attention to a change rather than the failed "Hope & Change," manure that B. Hussein Obama promised in 2008, but has never delivered on.

                  Let alone a continued poor U.S. economy that has millions of Americans STILL out of work. B. Hussein Obama obviously cannot run on his record (a record of failure & recession), so Reich wants B. Hussein Obama to play political diversion games. How nice. Reich then goes on to say that this would set up Hillary Clinton to be the 2016 Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Left wing Kook, Democrat Presidential candidate.

                  Of course this presumes that an Obama/Cinton ticket would win on Nov. 6th, 2012. But would it work for America?

                  One, does Hillary Clinton really want to put all her political eggs in Obama's basket and run on the horribly wretched Obama U.S. economy and Socialist/Marxist Obamacare?

                  Two
                  , could Obama and Hillary Clinton really get along, along with adding BJ Clinton to the mix? Talk about the political "Odd Couple."

                  Three, does anyone really think that Left wing Kook VP Joe Biden is the reason why Obama's job approval numbers are so low? Biden has done everything for this Socialist/Marxist President including selling his soul and acting the fool, even more so than usual.

                  Four, imagine the political ads against Obama/Clinton taken from their 2008 primary battles.

                  Five, does Obama have the ability, humility and personality to accept that HE is the problem and Hillary Clinton is his Savior? Hardly, many have already suggested B. Hussein Obama not run for a second term for the betterment of the Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat party. However, that was never an option for Obama's ego. B. Hussein Obama has continually shot down the notion that Clinton and Biden would swap jobs. If he makes such a flip-flop now, it would show just how politically weak "The One," truly is. Also, he would be, if re-elected, a neutered U.S. President and everyone would know who would really wears the "pant suits" in the Oval Office. Ha!! I love it!!

                  Hope & Change for the Youth? A Meager 55% of Americans Between Ages 16 and 29 Have Jobs. Ha!! How's that Hopey Changey stuff working out for ya, huh??!!

                  The American youth has lost that "Luvin’ Feeling" For B. Hussein Obama and his Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Democrat, Left wing Kooky Democrat Party.

                  A question to the youth of America that supported and campaigned for Barack Obama in 2008, hows that “Hopey, Changey” stuff working out for ya? In 2008 the youth of America blindly followed the promises, rhetoric and bumper sticker slogans of B. Hussein Obama propelling him into office and actually believing that “we are the ones that you all have been waiting for.”

                  From 2008 to present day, the American youth has learned an inconvenient truth, B. Hussein Obama’s promise of hope, change and jobs was Horse Manure. Plain & Simple. They were repaid for their actions with no jobs to be found. Talk about a buzz kill for any B. Hussein Obama 2012 re-election effort.

                  The American youth will most likely stay home when it comes to B. Hussein Obama’s re-election and on election day. Presently, only 55% of Americans between the ages of 16 and 29 have jobs. As stated by Weasel Zippers, the economic train wreck rolls on.

                  In 2008, the youth vote helped sweep B. Hussein Obama into office. Americans 18-29 spread the word on social media, energized fundraising and went to the polls.

                  In 2012, the youth vote is moving on and throwing those omnipresent “Hopey Changey” bumper stickers and T-Shirts in garbage bins.

                  Not because of apathy. Not because another candidate generates more enthusiasm. Not because of his character. Not because they think voting is pointless. The 18-29 vote is up for grabs in 2012 because the American youth can’t afford cars to put bumper stickers on and those T-Shirts are worn out from too many days sitting on the couch unemployed.

                  Obama used these kids naivety in 2008 and since has done little to nothing to help the energetic, grass roots, American youth. Not only are barely 50% employed, earlier this year, Americans’ student loan debt surpassed credit card debt for the first time ever. Not to mention the continued increase in debt will be the responsibility you today’s and tomorrow's American youth. So what do the millennials say? HELL NO TO OBAMA!!! According to a recent Pew Research Center poll, only 49% of millennial voters approve of B. Hussein Obama, down a whopping 23 points from February 2009.

                  But while 18-to-29 year-old Americans are reliable Democrats, their enthusiasm for B. Hussein Obama and presidential politics has waned, setting the stage for an uphill struggle to turn out the vote.

                  Forty-nine percent of millennial voters approve of Obama, according to the Pew Research Center, down 23 points from February 2009. They are also the least interested in or engaged with the current campaign, the study found.

                  Only 17 percent of millennials said they are following election news closely, while just 13 percent said they’ve given a lot of thought to the candidates, a 15 point drop from the same period four years ago. Hee-hee-hee!!!

                  B. Hussein Obama has played 90 rounds of golf, but Thursday evening, 12/29/2011, was the very first time that our Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, America-hating, Democrat, Left wing Kook visited Pearl Harbor, since becoming POTUS!!!

                  PRIORITIES, PRIORITIES!!!

                  What is wrong with this picture? B. Hussein Obama has played 90 rounds of golf, however, his visit Thursday, December 29, 2011 to Pear Harbor was the first time since becoming Commander-in-Chief. December 7, 2011 marked the 70th Anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor and the death of more than 2400 Brave, American Souls. However, B. Hussein Obama was no where to be found. Yet, he manages to visit Peal Harbor for the first time in between rounds of golf and shaved ice with the family while on vacation in Hawaii? As fate would have it, there were reporters there, imagine that!!

                  The president and first lady, Princess Michelle Obama visited the USS Arizona Memorial, where they observed a moment of silence in a room in which the names of crew members who died 70 years ago this month have been inscribed.

                  B. Hussein Obama, who visited the memorial before he was President in 2008, did not make any remarks at the memorial, according to a report. But he and the Princess dropped white and purple orchids onto the sunken battleship.

                  What an example he has sets as supposed Commander-in-Chief. At some point this guy will pay a political price for using the U.S. Military as a political prop. We'll remember in November (2012)!!!!

                  Yeah... I get the fact that Barack Obama's middle name is "Hussein". Guess what? His parents named him that. He didn't choose his own name. Get over it.

                  What did you expect when America elected a less-than-one-term Freshman U.S. Senator who was never even qualified to hold that office, much less POTUS, never held a real job in the private sector, nor was ever a decision maker, nor an executive of ANY SORT, in the private or even public sector in his entire life?

                  B. Hussein Obama was a "Community Organizer" for goodness sakes, there are small business owners with more executive experience than that Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Marxist, Left wing Kook Democrat waste of skin in the White House now.

                  Elections DO HAVE CONSEQUENCES and we are all paying 100X worse than when former President George W. Bush was in office, because the U.S. Economy, U.S. Joblessness and skyrocketing U.S. National Debt and skyrocketing U.S. Budget Deficit is higher than all of the other U.S. Presidents in American history...combined!!! This "Community Organizer" hasn't a da*ned clue what the h*ll he's doing and only knows how to pit one American versus another.

                  And go on lavish, separate-from-his-wife/children thus costing that much more, expensive U.S. Taxpayer-financed vacations and golf outings, when he's not busy standing up for and publically supporting the Ground Zero Islamic Mosque construction, calling Police Officers stupid. (See Cambridge, Mass Police Dept in whom B. Hussein Obama called them "stupid" for arresting his Left wing Kooky Goon Buddy, Henry Louis Gates Jr.), or bowing way down to Saudi Arabian Sultans and Japanese Emperors.

                  Yeah, America really messed up electing someone who has no business being a County Dog Catcher, much less the Leader of the Free World. However, one good thing about American Presidential Elections is they come back every four years and on Nov. 6th, 2012, a great majority of the American electorate who love this country will vote out the worst mistake ever called President in American History. Guaranteed!! I can't wait!!
