I am disappointed that the president's camp agreed to this.

I am too, I totally see Romney's camp demanding this, but O's Camp, I'm a bit taken aback. and Brokaw did this all the time, he totally rephrased or 'clarified' questions in town hall style debates, plus he asked follow up questions. HMMMM!!! Might this be that she's a woman? In this day and age??? SMH.

i don't think it's that.
i think it's more of a case where they don't want to be asked hard questions and they want to stick to their talking points. intellectual laziness.

If you're right, then the white house has changed O, instead of he changing the white house. I guess a politician is just that, a politician.

Has it gotten to this? CEOs threatning employees on how to vote? Really???

i was shouting at the "binders full of women" thing that i missed romney saying that he wanted women to be able to get home on time to cook dinner.

1. so murdoch was saying that pregnancies (as a result of rape) are God's intentions.

2. i have no issues with showing voter id. but why did you start the voter id push 2 months before election? why didn't you start 3 years ago to give people enough time to do what they needed to do? if you want voter id laws for 2016, please start introducing that legislation now so that people will have adequate time to get their paperwork together.

3. i soooo cannot wait for the November 6th. i am absolutely tired of politics. (who knew i'd ever say that)

4. the best way to deal with my friends on the extreme right is to not absolutely talk politics, everything but politics. when my son gives aunty a sideeye for her huge giant mitt romney yard sign

The GOP wants to cut funds to social programs and government assistance like Medicaid, Medicare, social security, welfare - true or false?

Mitt Romney, a good Mormon should never lie, especially about things that are easily verified, and have been debunked by the people you are telling the lie about. Jeep has said they are not, repeat NOT moving jobs overseas. they're not moving production overseas. why do you insist on saying that over and over?

arrgh! politics leave me alone. i need to do some work.

see Mitt Etch-A-Sketch
see Mitt Run
See Mitt flip and flop.

(ok so it's not exactly like the See Jane run books but oh well)

funny how Mr I was a severely conservative governor has now moved to the center and he's no longer severely conservative. hope he doesn't hurt anything with the way he's twisting himself to get out of that corner he backed himself into.

see mitt.
see mitt run.
see mitt run to the center.
see mitt run to the center from the severely conservative corner.
see mitt run to the center from the severely conservative corner right in front of my very eyes.

Has Mitt finally stated his position on equal pay for equal work?
don't understand what is so hard about saying "yes, i want women to be paid the same for doing the same work as men"
or "hell no, women can't get paid the same amount of wages as men"

LOL, when has Romney ever come clear on correct about any political issue, sebi, he now thinks that FEMA is all good. Anytime, he comes out clear on a position, just understand it's only for that particular instant, moment, and situation, so why even look for him to take a stand on anything, he'd just change it later.

lol.
i was having a conversation with someone i'd known for YEARS! and was very surprised when she said she was voting for romney.
i asked her a few questions i've asked on this thread, namely his views on equal pay for equal work, his severe conservatism, cutting welfare programs and social programs, not in a confrontational way of course, just in general.
i think my friend is hung up on the abortion/homosexual/birth control issue.

i came away from that conversation shaking my head, you know someone but you never really know 'em.

Politics make strange bedfellows as they say. I will never get tired of politics, as much as we complain, you know we love it. I'm even made cause we don't know what's going on with Brown and Elizabeth in Mass, damn sandy!! Anyhow, did you hear that the idiot, Aikin got GOP funds??? Unbelievable, maybe they think he can beat claire.

Is the president winning NC now? word on the streets, just sayin'

I'm thinking, we have a couple of good ideas for who we will see on the republican ticket in 2016, who do you think may show up in 2016, Hillary says she won't.
