Why should Obama be reelected?

[AlBell]

So you believe the General Public wants the obstructionist Gov't they have now?

People with a modicum of good sense do. Never give one party control of everything.

If y'all manage to re-elect Obama, please give Reps at least 60 senate seats, and 67 would even better.

I leave you, still, Hoping for Change.

I want to change back to the America of the Bush era. Life was good then. I'm guessing Newt will be the best choice. Cut business taxes to zero and the economy will grow as much as it did under Bush. Wow. Just wow.

Your blood oath doesn't seem to have taken.

There's a difference between "never give one party control of everything" and "block everything the other party tries to accomplish".

Nope. An oath to god has little weight when you don't believe in god.

Never give drooling morons and sociopaths like the current crop of republicons control of anything. They are not up to the job. Splitting the ticket just torpedoes any real change. There is no way we are going to get anything out of mcConnel or Ryan or the orange-skinned git from Ohio that is going to do this country a bit of good.

I would rather not see another republicon elected to anything. Best for the country if that gang were dissolved and split of into libertarian and fascist parties.

If someone has an R after his name, the people should demand proof that Grover has not put a lien on his nads.

Late to the party once again. Oh well..

Obama needs to be re-elected because there isn't another person with a chance to win who might still enact Keynesian policies for recovery and not screw over the poor.

No, no didn't you hear? We want to hand over absolute power to Obama and then let him micromanage our lives.

Getting married? Obama has to okay it. Buying milk? Not unless Obama says so. Painting your house? Obama has only cleared puce and aquamarine for residential use.

Obama is the only candidate running right now who knows how to conduct a successful military operation or to gather reliable intelligence, or to operate a social safety net to protect the victims of corporate excess. None of the republicons seem to care about people facing foreclosure, as long as the lenders are covered.

Mittens has even gone so far as to suggest that foreclosure should be accelerated so that investors can take over those properties and rent them out until the price of houses goes back up.

Obama is the only candidate running right now who does not want the working class to become peons.

Obama cares only about himself. He want to be reelected so he can continue to fly around the country in the big plane.

In all honesty I think the likelihood of Huntsman or Romney following their Mormon impertiaves over their oath in office to be slight. But make no mistake about it. Mormons swear and oath to god to put the Mormon Church above all other concerns. When Romney and Huntsman took that oath it was a blood oath. I know because I took it.

What are the connections between Mormons and Masonry?

I'm more of a boat person myself.

Then if the Democrats start playing the filibuster-everything game, the Republicans would probably invoke the "nuclear option" ending the obstructionism you seem to think everyone wants.

Hmmm. . what specifically do they swear? I can see them still invoking a render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's type of separationism. I'm sure JFK considered Catholicism to be supreme in his personal life, but specifically said he wouldn't do the job of the president as a tool of the Vatican.

Newt apparently has problems with such things though--since his devotion to his country was the cause of him breaking his marital vows!

Thank gawd for the Republican field, then. The word I hear every pundit and political junkie use to describe them is "humility".

Outside of boards like this one, there are a lot of us. We also vote.

Progressives in congress and in administrations are as bad or worse than right-wingers on blocking things.

Examples that don't involve keeping racial segregation or prayer in schools?
