My lovely Miss Prissy, the luv of my life, bean tellin me whats gonna be happenin iffen Obama loses. We gonna be losin our phones, fer one thing, and aint gonna have no way to be callin our 13 kids on the anniversary of Jim Beam birth, like we always do. We gonna have to be lookin for work. Thats rather harsh treatment, folks, fer somebody that aint worked for 32 years. But iffen my Miss Prissy has to go back to work, so be it. I'll just stay hear at home and protect the valuables in the 1974 singlewide. Cant have no one comin in here and going through my collection of lottery scratch offs and yugioh cards.
Remember, peeple. That thar Rumney is a businessman, and knows how to fix things up. He'll get em running again. Iffen thats the case, how come he's never showed up at my trailer and offered to fix anything?
Remember, vote Obama, and vote often. Miss Prissy and me are depends on it.
If you were waiting for the moment when angry Tea Partiers would try to drive a soup kitchen out of business for not playing along with Paul Ryan barging in and cleaning already-clean pots after everyone had already left, wait no longer
Some serious things to consider about the upcoming election results:
1. Obama peaked in voter enthusiasm in 2008. There will not be the same turnout like he had 4 years ago. He reached maximum potential then.
2. There are millions, perhaps, of American's who are now having "voter remorse," and will be changing their vote this next time around. Obama will be losing a %, and there's nothing he can do about it.
3. Hispanics vote 70% of the time for Democrats..Obama will just add a small % to that already high number...not near enough to make up for losses mentioned in 1 and 2.
4. John McCain didn't have much support in 2008 from the Republican base. Many voters sat the last election out. Republicans are so ticked off, and that won't happen again.
5. Like it or not, the Tea Party can still turn out a large vote of disgruntled American's. This was proven in midterms, as well as primaries. The Democrats do not have a "mad" base to call upon.
6. Many blacks have grown indifferent to Obama and his policies. Unemployment rate is sky high in the black community. Thus, turnout will be smaller for Obama.
Spin it however you want to, folks....But Obama will lose in November.
If Obama is the answer, I don't want to hear the question.
Please vote for Barack Obama, if you are....
1. Excited about his adding $6 Trillion to our deficit.
2. Excited about mortgaging our children's future by borrowing from China and others.
3. Excited about how 320,000 a week...or 1.2 million American's a MONTH, are filing for first time unemployment benefits.
4. Excited about only 150,000 new jobs a MONTH are being created on average, not even keeping up with population increases.
5. Excited about the disparity in women losing their jobs vs. men.
6. Excited about Libya and the lies that Obama/Biden have perpetuated.
7. Excited over the high price of gasoline, groceries and energy costs.
8. Excited about how an American ambassador was slaughtered while our president shrugged it off and went to Vegas and Hollywood.
9. Excited about Obama's Apology Tour to every despot in the world.
10. Excited about the ABSOLUTE FAILURE of this president to bring about ANY TYPE OF CHANGE in 4 long years, and you're now wanting 4 more years of the same!
If Obama is the answer, I don't want to hear the question.
Mitt clearly doesn't know the difference between the deficit and the debt. He said that the deficit doubled under Obama. It was $1.2 trillion when he took office and it is now $1 trillion. You really want him run the country?
Obama and the Democrats are demonizing all big businesses today. Instead of encouraging growth and development, they try to stifle and strangle growth and development. Instead of creating a fertile environment conducive to growth and job creation, they bring out the guillotine and yell out "Off with their heads! Spread the wealth! We, the communist peons, demand others wealth and investments!"
Obama, with a stroke of his pen, killed...and I mean killed...every electric plant using coal to generate electricity...instantly in a second. We will soon be seeing our power bills somewhere down the line go up drastically...Just like the price of meat will explode somewhere down the line due to this summers drougt disaster, the same thing will be happening to our electricity. No way that you can shut down 8 plants in Georgia alone and the consumers not get hit in the head with a 2 by 4.
North Dakota is booming...The same could be said across the USA if the president had a serious energy policy and unleash the basic policies of economic expenditure, growth and development. This guy preaches "safety" and "environment" when his own windmills are destroying migratory birds by the hundreds of thousands each year...What's with that? It's called "hypocrisy."
The coal miners in West Virginia, Kentucky and other states have been destroyed by this president. The Keystone Pipeline is the same way with those in oil jobs and construction.
Forget the Gold Rush...We need an energy rush, like the new rush in the Black Hills of the Dakotas. Even fast food franchises are paying double to triple the salaries of what they pay here in Rome in North Dakota. New housing starts are exploding there, instant communities going up, and the state and local areas are awash and flooded with tax revenue and cash on hand that they have no idea what to do with.
Romney has said that unleashing the field of energy development is the first on his 5 point list. He will sign the Keystone Pipeline deal on his first day in office.
If Obama is the answer, I don't want to hear the question.
Romney says he will add 12 million new jobs in the US. How? When he was governor of MA they were 47th in job creation. And that's when the economy was good!
When Romney took office in Dec. 2002, Massachusetts ranked 51st...dead last..in jobs, including Washington DC on the list.
In Dec. 2006 when he left office, Massachusetts ranked 30th, a jump of 21 spots in just 48 months.
Study the statistics yourself. Do not depend on someone else. Do your own interpretation of the facts. They speak for themselves, but you're the one that will have to shuffle through the lies and hear them for yourself.
I've been lied to again and again by politicians on both sides...and so have you. I'm tired of the half-truths and convenient-truths that they let their hacks spit out in unison on Sunday morning shows in the past like Meet The Press and Face The Nation.
Dandy liars...every one of them.

Obama has demonized oil, coal,etc., since day one. Look at what's going on in North Dakota right now...a major "boom" in business, energy and commerce...The Wild West once again, in SPITE of Obama and the liberals restrictions.
America has the largest untapped natural gas and coal reserves in the world today...and if it was up to Obama, they'd stay in the ground for another million years. Energy industry jobs are of the best kind...high paying, not the Mickey Mouse minimal paying jobs that Obama has supposedly "created" under his leadership. If energy was turned loose, it is estimated that the USA would see a major industry boom like we've never seen before, with countless thousands and thousands of high paying jobs created in a very short period of time. That's why Romney is making energy production into the number one thing in leading us into economic recovery.
Stimulus spending on wasted and failed bogus "green energy" companies that supported Obama and have gone belly up is really stupid, to say the least....downright criminal, if you ask me.
Romney knows what this energy rush would do...Truly stimulate our economy, create billions/trillions of dollars in new revenue, put American's back to work, create high paying jobs, help to put construction workers back to building, see the housing market take back off, and wipe out the deficit spending nearly over night.
Get rid of Obama, folks. He's clueless about anything except posturing, giving out false information, and lying to the American people.
If Obama is the answer, I don't want to hear the question.
The president’s policies DO affect the price of a gallon of gas just as his policies on coal-generated electricity affect what we pay per kilowatt. Obama said to the electric industry: “you can go ahead and build a coal fired plant, but it’s going to bankrupt you if you do.” That would be the heavy boot of the EPA in case you didn’t know. Furthermore, Obama’s trade agreement with Brazil, to whom we ship refined gasoline by the tanker load, has limited our supply and naturally the price goes up; just as the Anointed One desires!!! So you see WT, the president does have an affect on the price of gas. Give him a second term and he very well may dictate with the stroke of the pen the price of gas. To think it couldn’t happen is as well laughable.
BTW: I’m neither an R nor a D but an Independent and certainly not in the weak-brained category of “Undecided.” My observation is Saint Mittens gave as good as he got last night.
Romney's fuzzy math got called to the carpet and he has no retort. 'I'm cutting middle-class taxes by 20 percent and paying for it by closing loopholes for the wealthy, don't know or won't say which ones, but the wealthy will pay the same as they are now.' Makes no sense at all. If you cut deductions and loopholes, those who can't claim them would pay MORE, not "the same"! So, lower-middle-class residents of Gordon County (the majority demographic here) who do you honestly think will be paying More and who will be paying "the same"; because it has to come from somewhere?
Oh, I almost forgot... Elms, in response to your comment about oil prices in another string; I searched this out just for you, because I knew most folks around here wouldn't believe it from any other source:
FOX news - 2008, Bill O'riley to be specific, said 'the President has absolutely nothing to do with gasoline prices.'
Obama:
1. Was able to see what was going on IMMEDIATELY at the consulate through the real-time video surveillance cameras.
2. Video was available through the drone patrolling and videoing the grounds.
Sure, blame can be given out for what happened there. Plenty of deserved finger-pointing can and should be done.
However..the BUCK STOPS WITH OBAMA...He's the one who:
1. Deliberately misrepresented the truth from the start. We'll grant him the first 48 hours....After all, he had other things to do, like going to Las Vegas, attending celebrity fundraisers, and appearing with Letterman, Jon Stewart, the Ladies on the View, Jay-Z, and the Pimp With The Limp interview.
2. Sent his surrogates out to repeat the bull story about the "video" protest garbage, knowing that it was bogus from the start.
3. Deliberately deceived the American people from the start, complicating matters with one falsehood after another one.
4. Deliberately...two weeks later...giving out the same bogus news to the entire world at the United Nations.
This guy is a liar...and a TRAITOR of the worst kind.
ANY PERSON who would deliberately lie and misrepresent a TERRORIST ATTACK perpetuated upon AMERICAN CITIZENS for political gain should be not only defeated in November, but ought to be sent packing OUTSIDE THE USA, and never permitted to return home again!
Obama blames Hillary for the deaths of 4 Americans including our Ambassador in Libya. He blames John Kerry for his defeat in the first debate and blames Bush for everything else. What happened to the “buck stops here?” Oh! I forgot. That was a REAL Democrat, not a progressive-socialist-community-organizing-never-had-a-real-job-empty-suit (I mean chair) without any gamete producing organs on his body!
But he got bin laden right? ***UPDATE*** Latest sources say the helicopters were already in Pakistan when the Anointed One got the call, where else, on the golf course. But no, no, no he made the call. FYI: There had been a standing order for bin laden since September 2001.
Another little tidbit that speaks volumes as to who President Obama really is: he wanted bin laden captured alive and put on trial in the USA with all the Constitutional protections that he tried to destroy on 9/11. What a piece of work!!!
Wake up folks. The Chicago political mob has been running the country for 4 years. Enough!!! Inauguration Day January 2013 can’t get here soon enough!
And if it couldn’t get any better, it has just been brought to my attention Obama said today campaigning in Florida (and I quote) “we got back every dime we used to rescue the financial system.” However, the CBO announced today there remains $65 Billion in TARP funds outstanding and they expect to write off (that means lose Morn) about $24 Billion on the deal. I guess he can blame the teleprompter. Cheers!
