KevinG Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 You should organize a boycott of any Ted Nugent public appearances and cancel your NRA lifetime membership. Already done. Maybe we should move on, let's talk about how each presidential candidate treats dogs. Cause apparently that matters. Link to post Share on other sites

Winston Legthigh Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 An editorial on CNN.com is far from being punished. Look. You claimed there was no call for a boycott. I provided a link to an editorial calling for him being jailed.Do you know why the left isn't riled by what he said? I'll tell you. It's quite simple... Obama is going to be re-elected by a landslide. That's why nobody on the left gives a fuck. Link to post Share on other sites

KevinG Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Wasn't there an entire independent film or mock doc sensationalizing an assassination on Bush? I may be wrong but I may be right. Death of a President (2006), I have never seen this movie, this centers around the events after the assassination of GWB. It does not call for the assassination of GWB. And if Wikipedia is to be believed (and why not eh?) it paints a pretty bleak picture of the days and roles of government afterword. Link to post Share on other sites
Beltmann Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Plus, when Death of a President was released, there was plenty of outrage from all corners. Even Hillary Clinton denounced it for being irresponsible. Link to post Share on other sites

LouieB Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Obama is going to win, but not by a landslide. Not even close. So if all this shit is wrong as Sparky keeps saying, why does the opposition keep acting like the only thing wrong is Obama in the White House? Once again I refer to the article in the NY Times a few weeks back. The GOP could have gotten a decent compromise on the deficit and threw it all way. Fuck em.

KevinG Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I hope more and more people start to think that way. Most data seems to predict Obama with around 250 Electoral College votes and Romney around 190 or so. This means there about 100 Electoral votes up for grabs in states like Florida, Ohio, Nevada, Colorado, Virginia, North Carolina. I don't think anyone with a brain thinks it is a done deal for Obama. Tweedling, from your posts I am assuming you are Pro-Romney (or is it anti-Obama). Can you tell me, what are Romney's plans for the country? I mean apparently he is gonna end The Affordable-Care act (which constitutionally he would not be able to do.) but beyond that what is his plans for the country. All I hear from him is Obama is bad, but yet no ideas on how to improve the country. Seriously what is gonna do? Link to post Share on other sites

LouieBAs a registered Republican, I pretty much agree w/ this. The Grover Norquist people are NOT deficit hawks. They are interested only in protecting the assets of the wealthy. There is valid concern, IMO, for that. But don't be fooled. Many of them don't give a rat's ass about the deficit. Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Since I mentioned Neil Steinberg earlier in the thread - I might as well post a link to his column from today. He sat down with Dick Durbin (IL U.S. Senator) It's Durbin's take on the Tea Party, Occupy Movement, and Democrat/Republican relations. http://www.suntimes.com/news/steinberg/12067377-452/durbin-election-best-hope-for-reviving-government.html Link to post Share on other sites
Tweedling Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 I'm not exactly campaigning for Romney. And I don't necessarily think Obama is the Antichrist. I do not like the health care reform in it's 1,900+ pages of glory. Im no fan of the redistribution of wealth rhetoric. If you want to know Mitts plans for the country I'm sure he's got something on the Internet explaining something. Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 I don't like the healthcare reform either. I would have prefered single payer and a public option. What's the rights alternative to what we have? Only insurance for those who can get it and afford it? edit-Perhaps the greatest irony of the whole reform is how the right hates the law, but he health care companies (the "free market") loves it.

Tweedling Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Health care companies love it because they are playing both sides of the fence. They have continued to aggressively deny surgeon and other HCP reimbursements while anxiously preparing for people to be required to pick up health insurance. Why wouldn't they love it?I don't know what the right formula would be but I personally would have liked a smaller bill. Maybe approach it a little slower and not like we were solving the crisis in one big swoop. It bugs me to think of Pelosi saying things like, "we have to pass it so we can see what's in it." I do know I would have liked to see people have the option going across state lines for insurance. Forcing a good deal of competition between the insurance companies. That along with providing children (a child is not 20+ years old) and elderly with secure insurance..... Link to post Share on other sites
