Official Presidential Debate thread 10/16

[sniper7]

I think the real winner tonight is Sniper7.

He's about a madmofo typin sumbitch

Just trying to help a couple members out who asked me to do this again...and myself in the future.

If Romney wins, i will use my threads, my words to compare the: what was said...and what was done for my evaluation.

[BPTactical]

My thought was that he seemed more timid than Romney and did not put nearly as many numbers out there but that was just me.

I would concur.
I do feel BO was aggressive. He knew he had to step up and may have pushed a smidge too hard.
Again I do not feel he was nearly as specific as Romney.

[Goodburbon]

If everyone who swore that johnson is just a waste of time would vote for him, it wouldn't be a waste of time.

[ChunkyMonkey]

^^^ meh.. i wanna see him doing it while in flight.

[hollohas]

Romney saying again and again "Obama can't do that, but I can!" without ever actually explaining how.

The way they kept interrupting each other and walking all over the allotted time was a real turn off, as well.

Romeny has done those things as a businessman.

Agreed on the interrupting.

[sniper7]

If everyone who swore that johnson is just a waste of time would vote for him, it wouldn't be a waste of time.

VERY FEW people even know who he is, let alone heard anything he has ever said. He still wouldn't stand a chance. i think I stand a better chance.

[Colorado Luckydog]

If you are a fucking idiot and your head has been up your ass for the last four years, then maybe Obamalamafuckup won this debate.

If you have half a brain and you want this country to survive, you heard the truth.

[hollohas]

If everyone who swore that johnson is just a waste of time would vote for him, it wouldn't be a waste of time.

And others would still vote for Romney...then neither one would win.

[TEAMRICO]

If everyone who swore that johnson is just a waste of time would vote for him, it wouldn't be a waste of time.

It IS a waste of time. Like me voting for my neighbor for President! Everyone in the Cul de Sac says he can win so why not.

Let it go.......

[Ridge]

so...like in the political discussions, please tell me the other options?

I can either vote for Obama or for Romney. voting for Johnson is a waste of time.

Voting for Obama is continuing the last 4 years, handing SCOTUS to the liberals on a silver platter, and now he mentions he wants to put in another AWB. while I believe the house will fight this off, I can see, given the economy, an amendment being added to a bill to re-enact at least a portion of it, possibly permanent.

I can also write myself it, but unless I see about 150,000,000 people doing the same, I'm not going to win, therefore my vote would be wasted, it quite possibly would only help Obama.


Do you really think trickle up economics is going to work. do you think obama taking money from high income earners is really going to put more money in your pocket? do you think that those same people, who are mostly businesses owners or those who run business, will not make up that money...inflation, increasing prices, which YOU will have to pay if you want their products. do you really think the .gov has your best interests in mind?

Since Johnson has NO CHANCE at winning, there is no point in bringing up his policies or ideas.

So you are left with a successful businessman, who has created jobs, made millions, donated millions, and has a plan, yet to be fully laid out, will not be proven unless things work out. He balanced the budget for businesses he ran, the state of MA, Olympics. He has the experience

So there really is no choice. We have seen what 4 years of obama has brought. has your life improved, are you putting more money into savings? are you cutting back or able to spend more? have you had to sell off guns to pay bills...I know I have seen some for sale...I know I have sold some to take care of things...like the birth of my son. Who only 3 years ago under my insurance would have been free...yet now it was over $1000.

I agree that another 4 years of Obama will, at the very best, stagnate our country.

But I feel the other option is a guy who made his millions by buying out companies and selling off their assets. A guy who also said that military style weapons don't belong in the hands of the citizenry, and was seen as a likable enough guy to lead a very liberal state. He has a plan, but refuses to tell us what it is. It's the same thing we were calling Obama out for back in 2008.

Fact is, the military can definitely afford some spending cuts. As can many other government agencies. And that the American people need to be willing to do more to help their country out. We ARE going the way of Greece. We are demanding that our government do more and more and tax us less and less. I think a simplified tax law could go a long way to take care of that.
