Here's another program that you need to read about. In fact, read everything on this page, you might agree with just one or maybe all of the articles. Obama's massive "FedPhone" giveaway has cost you and I a whole lot of money, and there are people like this taking advantage of it!!!

When will you finally keep your promises?

btw- social =/= socialistic. The US is (also under Obama) that far away from a socialistic state, as North Korea from a democracy.

almost every western country has a better social system than the US. So they are all socialistic to you? LOL. And the fact, that Germany and Scandinavia are doing pretty well (WAYS better than the US- despite the euro crisis and their social systems) shouldn't need any mention.

And I really love that you quote (of all people you could have used) the one single person, who is responsible for the lost of Russias last bit of democracy.

I am just doing what Obama says - I am breaking my promises like he does and all of you see to think that it okay for him to do so. You are either rich and don't care where the money goes, or just being led around like an animal with a ring in its nose and following some strange regimen that is telling you "Obama is the truth, the light, and the way"!!! NOT!!!!!!!


Here's another waste of your tax dollars:

It is pretty shocking when Obama thinks more of making sure they have good alternative-energy cars instead of keeping our American personnel safe in Libya. Where is your thoughts on that?

The truth really hurts, doesn't it!


“Any fourth grade history student knows socialism has failed in every country, at every time in history,” said Putin. “President Obama and his fellow Democrats are either idiots or deliberately trying to destroy their own economy.”

Vladimir Putin
actually, any one type of government has failed in history at almost all times. Democracy failed in Rome, for example and in america, where capitalism has also eroded, and communism became the fake communism it is today. Really the most succesful government in the world I read was a combination capitalist/socialist government. Or something like that. There are a million opinions on which type or combination of government is best and which nation is most succesful at it. Google and Bing searches pretty much scream that.

BTW, luvin the Gangnam Style. Just so weird and awesome. :)

Just an early thought on what went on last night. I will have a full report after I rewatch the debate.

And locking down this thread would tell a lot of people how biased this forum is toward anyone who doesn't believe as they believe. I think this is a free country and as long as 'foul' language is not used, we should be able to say what we want.

My early first thought is: It's extremely difficult to respect a leader who has no respect for his opponents. Biden was down right condescending and rude. Props to Ryan for being a respectful professional. Both men stuck to the talking points. I think there's still room for improvement in the Romney/Ryan message.

While I am still watching last night's debate - I recorded it from four different sources, I found this to make you think just a little.

http://www.caintv.com/Morningafterclari ... isadet-564


And the moderator was high on the Obama/Biden Kool-Aid. She was so biased toward the incumbent party, her slip was showing.

And I thought this was a rather interesting thing about last night:

locking any thread is about personal attacks and violations of forum rules and not simply because the majority are biased. And frankly "foul language" is not unconstitutional and to repress it probably would be.

I have been watching the Debate from last night. I recorded it from four different networks, hoping to get a good perspective on what occurred. So you know, I recorded it from CNN, Fox News, ABC, and MSNBC.

I am still listening and watching what is going on, and if I am going to get my comments here I have to get back to watching.

Meanwhile here is something that might be worth a read:

Well my mind is in a whirlwind so I will try to make this as less confusing than it really is.

Biden and Ryan were very comfortable in their setting, and looked like they were actually friends. Then the moderator asked the first question and all heck broke loose.

Biden was first to reply to the first question and he began his diatribe of lies and denials about America's knowledge of the unrest in Libya that led to the death of four Americans including our Ambassador to Libya.

When it became Ryan's turn, Biden became so disrespectful flashing that 'cat that ate the canary' smile, and being very disrespectful by interrupting Ryan at every turn. He sat shaking his head at times, and the grin was getting bigger and more like a hyena than a human being.

The moderator, Martha somebody from ABC, let it show how biased she was in her treatment of Ryan. Just as Biden, she would interrupt either candidate when they wander a little bit from answering the question she wanted answered.

Biden seemed flustered a bit when Ryan would hit a nerve with a great quote for the night - "there are times when we don't have control of the words that come out of the mouth", and the audience broke into laughter.

Running a little longer than the scheduled 90 minutes, each candidate got their chance to give a closing statement. Each was respectful of the other in their closing remarks.

Now is where the fun begins. Fox News had their people in the "spin" room where they could hear exactly how people felt about who "won" this only debate for the Vice-Presidential candidates. CNN was really on the far left with an audience they polled right after the debate. Anderson looked like he was trying to prompt the people with their answers, although some of them hit the nail on the head. In their conclusion no one has changed their mind from undecided to either candidate, which is where I am right now.

I thought that the some of the replies given by Joe Biden were very good and if you have been keeping up with the news about Libya, you could see that he was trying to make the current regime look good, and failed at doing it, some of the time.

I liked the discussion of Medicare and Social Security most and thought both of the candidates brought up some very valid points about how they plan on saving Social Security and Medicare for those who haven't turned 40 yet. Very valid points were brought out, and it was about the only time that both men were respectful of their points of view.

I am looking forward to Tuesday Presidential Debate that will be held like a Town Hall Meeting. Should prove to be very interesting if Obama can be truthful with his answers and is focused on the evening ahead. This is probably going to be a tough Debate and both men will have to be at the top of their game.

Hope that there are some of you who watched this debate on different channels to get the true "spin" on who won the debate. Overall each of the stations I recorded said they were surprised at how disrespectful, rude and loud Biden was, and how he tried to push Ryan into a corner with all interruptions and answers, but Ryan was ready for Biden on all fronts.

Here is something that says it all for me:

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/laughin ... rformance/#

It's okay to laugh, believe me. I really laughed out loud at this.Mostly because it is so true, about last night's debate.

So you know that I watch more than just Fox News, here's breaking news from MSNBC:

"New evidence proves the State Dept. knew about the request for more security at the US Embassy in Libya and did nothing. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton should be fired!"

How many of you agree with that? After all the 'dodging around the topic' this should seal the fate of Joe Biden and ObaMao.

I'm sorry if I didn't post a link, but I got the quote from another source who says it was the chairman of the National Republican Committee who made the call for firing Hilary Clinton. I asked him for the link, but all he sent me was what I forwarded here.

I probably made a mistake in posting it, because you know I have tried to give you a link to everything that I can find, but as some of you are so anti-Fox News, I still post the link. If I knew that everyone would read my links like read theirs, then I would be a happy camper. I know that I seem to lean towards Fox News but it is because of all these other news sources like MSNBC, CNN, and the others are so 'over the top' with their biases I just am not comfortable using them as a source.

Want something new to chew on today here is a link to the "Hot story of the weekend" as reported on Fox News:

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/10 ... -directly/

Now that I have personally been hit by all of Obama's failures, I am going to pursue getting him out of office just like the millions of other Senior Citizens will be doing. I got my letter from my Medicare Advantage plan that they will not be available in 2013 in the state of Kansas, and it is the first step in the direction that Obamacare is going to be heading if Obama gets re-elected. In the letter it tells me with the current turmoil over the National Health Reform Act they are being forced to lay off over 5,000 people and downsize their coverages to certain areas of the country. They offered me another plan that requires a large monthly payment, which I cannot afford because of all my 401k losses in the past 43 months of the Obama administration. My inability to get another job is also hurting me financially, and I have had to quit buying my DVD's and Blu-ray movies because I need those funds to put food on the table or put gas in my car so I can keep looking for employment.

To help make ends meet, I have had to sell the majority of my DVD collection, which at one time number upwards of 6,000 titles, and now I only have less than a hundred titles left that I just want to keep. My Blu-ray collection is still mostly intact, I have only sold some of the titles that I don't watch but once every year or so. I have, because of Obama, had to refinance my car, but thank goodness it only extended the contract one year, and I gained about $100 through the cut in the monthly payments for it. I have cut back my cable bill, and cut down my cell phone plan to just a phone that I receive calls and make calls on when needed. This saved me a ton of money. I have a cable bundle with my cable provider to that I still have my HD programming, my internet capabilities and a land-line phone which I primarily use for all phone calls now.

Okay, now I have opened up on what four years of the Obama administration has or hasn't done for me, and still no one has done the same here as I have requested. I am really looking forward to someone being brave enough to tell me what has Obama done, personally and positively, to make you think that he is the answer to our nation's problems.

With the White House having to go into 'overtime' to correct the wrong answers Joe Biden gave in the debate, that is costing us money that we don't have. Spend, spend, spend is NOT the answer to our nation's economy. After listening to the debate again, and I will probably listen to it again today, I think the Vice President Biden came to the table with the intention to embarrass Paul Ryan, and then get very upset that he couldn't get a rise out of the Republican candidate, he began his outbursts and interruptins, and that 'clown' smile trying to make himself look like the leader he isn't, and cast another failure on the current administration.

Believe it or not, I am still on the fence with this election, but until someone can show me some positives I am leaning toward ousting our current administration and seeing what the other side can do to make this the the country that it once was. Our credibility is gone, we seem to be able to be pushed around, and the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing most of the time.

I just read that Obama is taking a couple of days off to get some tutoring on what to do at the next debate on Tuesday night. When I read that, it makes me think that his administration knows that they are in a race now, and it is so close that it could go either way. I can't wait to see and hear what President Obama has to say on Tuesday night. And then in the following week the "most important debate of the 2012 election" the candidates will discuss among other things, their Foreign Policy stands (which currently Obama has none that I have seen or heard of, except 'send them money, if they don't like us'; and I really want to hear what they both have to say on the state of current economy as it is related to the foreign policy. It should be interesting to hear.

Regarding your Medicare letter, you could appeal the case I think.

This ought to wrinkle the feathers of those who think that their President is who he says he is. Read it if you dare:

If you have an intelligent response to this have at it.

Anyone who thinks other people are rich and can afford to watch "pay-for-news" or whatever you claim to not be a corporate channel is really insane if they think they are only getting the truth and nothing but. Every news channel has to appeal to its sponsors and will be guided by their choices no matter what you may think.

Better start looking at and reading all of the media at this time of the year, unless you are one of the underage people that visit this site making silly remarks like that.

I already called them and they said it was because most insurance companies are trying to get aligned for the Obamacare rules and regs that will cost all of a ton of money. There will be no free ride for anyone. If you can't afford insurance you will get inferior care rather than those who have insurance. And you think the wait in line is long now, wait until 2014 when Obamacare comes into force, you think you have a problem with a doctor listening to you, you will climb a wall for the things that will happen. That is why Obamacare needs to be repealed so we all can keep those doctors we have had, and don't have to get a congressional referral to see a specialist.

Hollywood is getting on board the Romney/Ryan bandwagon and getting called names like "slaves". Here is the story. Read it and comment.
