Presidential Campaign: 2012

[birdman]

If we take Barack Obamas campaign speeches of 4 years ago & his actions in the three years since he has become president, it can all be summed up in just a few words; just words, just speeches.
He needs the jewish vote & will whore himself to anyone to get re-elected.
No hope, no change,--- just more lies & B.S..

Yeah and now this, there is plenty of change ..just the wrong change

It is fairly obvious Obama and Congress rushed through H.R. 347 in order to curtail demonstrations that will undoubtedly occur during both Democrat and Republican conventions this summer. Also known as the “Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011,” the bill makes it a felony to disrupt or protest at any place or event attended by any person with secret service protection.

The Wall Street Journal, like this Washington Post article, also reported on the heated and sustained targeting of the Koch Brothers, in describing the Obama White House’s use of an enemies list.
Back in the 2008 presidential campaign, the Obama campaign concerted under the color of law to intimidate critics against telling “lies,” threatening to arrest those trying to portray the then-aspiring candidate in a manner counter to the image the O-team projected. Now, with a total dedication to war, fronting for Wall Street’s record looting and very real questions about the sitting president’s providence and qualifications for office, it is clear the projected image was itself the real “lie.”

You have to pay attention.

The WSJ published a column written by:

Mr. Olson, a lawyer in Washington, D.C., and a former solicitor general of the United States, represents Koch Industries.

Why they decided to publish this is anyone's guess.

Then there's the other problem where they (or you) refer to a Washington Post article, but it's really a Washington Times article. Big difference.

Ron Paul is a racist and has ties with neo nazi groups whether you want to believe that or not.

Ron Paul hangin' out with buddies:

Friends helping RP out:

The American Free Press, which markets books like “The Invention of the Jewish People” and “March of the Titans: A History of the White Race,” is urging its subscribers to help it send hundreds of copies of Ron Paul’s collected speeches to voters in New Hampshire. The book, it promises, will “Help Dr. Ron Paul Win the G.O.P. Nomination in 2012!”

Sanitorium on the campaign trail in Ohio:

“We’re living basically spending down our savings. Not necessarily the best thing to do when you have three kids entering into college the next couple of years. But this country is worth it.”

College? That liberal indoctrination scheme? What an insufferable snob!

Not a fan of people being wiped out by a dictator. The gassing of the Kurds, the rape parties, killing of the boys/men in certain tribes, etc. 800,000 people being killed anywhere is a reason to remove someone like that. But the world should be involved in such an action not just America.

Maybe he's sending his kids to a Christian college.

So much negativity here.

Santorum was the one who claimed that Obama was a snob for his statement about wanting to make college affordable. Was that negative? I just thought it was incredibly stupid.

He also never did explain how he escaped the indoctrination he says colleges and universities wield over unsuspecting students. He has one more advanced degree than our president, and not one of those three degrees is from a Christian college.

You could have just said yes, I was suckered into supporting our invasion.

Remember, the reason we went in to Iraq was to prevent "mushroom clouds". Would that then not be a good reason to hit Iran also?

Rick Santorum is narrowly leading Romney in the crucial Super Tuesday state of Ohio, according to a Suffolk University poll out this afternoon.

The poll found Santorum with 37 percent support among likely Republican primary voters in Ohio, followed by Romney with 33 percent. Former House speaker Newt Gingrich came in a distant third at 16 percent trailed by Texas Representative Ron Paul with 8 percent. Santorum’s lead was just within the poll’s 4.4 percent margin of error.

Between this and the race for the 9th among Dems, Super Tues is going to be a nail biter in Ohio.

Agreed, it does not get much closer than 32%-32%. Looks like the Roman Catholic vote is trending to Romney, a little surprising. I think it may end up with Romney by a tiny margin. I was reading that little Chilocothe (spelling?) in Ohio may be the difference maker. My college roommate was from that town, the only reason I know the name.

What is the prediction in the 9th? I have not seen any polls.

The way they redistricted, Kaptur has a bigger slice of her former constituency pie. But, it's been a bitter fight that I did not enjoy. In the local debates, I thought Kucinich came off as petty and Kaptur as a nose to ground workhorse who did her research. She also came away with major endorsements, and is next in line to be the ranking member of the Appropriations Committee. She will get my vote tomorrow, but Kucinich's share of the Cleveland area district is an unknown. They probably feel the same way about him that we in Toledo feel about Marcy.

I'm pulling for Joe the Plumber in the GOP primary just so I can see those debates.

It does not surprise me that Catholic Ohioans would trend Mittens over Sanitorium. They are a moderate to liberal bunch; at least around here.

If I was a Democrat in the 9th, I would cast my vote for Kaptur. I know her intent would be to work her behind off for her constituents. Kucinich seems to always be working on his own self interests. The fact that she would be next on line for Appropriations would be icing on the cake.

One of my college friends is from the 9th District, Maumee, and he is a Kaptur supporter.

My parents live in Maumee. I'm in Toledo proper, still the 9th.

If Santorum wins the primary here, it will be less an indication of his popularity, and more an issue of Romney's unpopularity. I still can't imagine what he was thinking with the title of his Detroit op-ed. The Jeep plant stayed afloat here because of the auto bailout. Every third person you know is somehow impacted by the auto industry around these parts. Blue collar people in the rustbelt, even conservative ones, are not going to warm easily to Romney, imo.

They may have taken a look at Santorum, but then he started talking.
