Debate score tally [W:82]

As a note: They do still use bayonets...... Kind of made Obama sound like he had no clue what he was talking about.

Thus....the word LESS........Obama didn't say they DON'T use them anymore...kinda makes you sound like you don't have a clue what you are talking about.....DOh!

You are missing the point....its not about numbers.

The poster I was responding to claimed that Obama looked like a fool because we are still using Bayonets and Horses. I pointed out that if Obama claimed that he aren't, then perhaps he would be right, but Obama said that we are using LESS....because our modern Navy has more resources at its disposal than Bayonets.....

Now are you up to speed?
 
I always have fun.

Since Ive already stated I believe you have a propensity to fib a bit...I think your fibbing again lol

You can only get a point across when theres a chance it can be understood or theres enough integrity to acknowledge that your right...I think your wasting your time disney

I'm always up to speed...

for instance, I'm up to speed on our current navy ships staying at sea longer , on longer deployments, on more commitments.. because there are not enough replacement ships to put in the deployment rotation...crew rotations, retrofits, and maintenance all suffer.
i'm up to speed on our Navy being stretched thin all over the globe
i'm up to speed on our newest ship being an amphibious ship(USS America)... which we haven't utilized in their purpose since the Inchon landing in Korea ( 1950)
(I'm also up top speed that the Inchon landing was comprised of 261 ships... which is 26 shy of the size of our entire Naval fleet now)
I'm up to speed about the size of our fleet ( 287) and what size Romney is shooting for ( 350).. i'm not up to speed on how he will pay for those ships , though

and i'm up to speed about the current President having no public strategy for alleviating the burden our fleet/sailors are under... he'd rather makes jokes about it to win an election.
 
good for you.... it's now time to say something worthwhile or be silent.

You dont have to be silent...you havent said anything truthful or meaningful in any of the posts yet..keep talking you might get lucky..and besides I really like talking to you :) Now tell me how you turn down your military pension I want to tell the guys in the vfw in case they want to turn theirs down..we have some very rich vets...lololooool....

nothing I have said is false.

if your buddies at the VFW want to opt out of their pensions, they need only to contact the DFAS, in writing, to declare their intentions... a series of communications will occur, a few forms to fill out, and bam.. done.
if they are married, their spouses must also contact the DFAS , in writing, to do the same... the SBP is a different benefit from the pension, so it must be addressed separately.

while doing this does not end the benefits, it does suspend them ... the servicemember can reinstate his/her benefits any time up until the day he dies.... but the benefits will not accrue.


is there any more irrelevant things you would like to know?

Yes how do you turn down your social security and medicare...just not apply or did you write obama and tell HIM how rich you are...maybe he believed you...LOOlolol....thrilla remember this old saying...bs the baker you get a bun...bs me and you get none....Me thinks you fibbed and now you cant get out with any dignity so you have to continue the fib with more fibs...lolollol...and if you have time could you give me a class on money management...maybe ill send back my govt checks too even though im very poor and never made anything of myself like you have...MY HERO loololol
You should stop typing and above all stop being personal with posters that you cant handle :)

Kind of makes it sound like some of you liberals are not associated with the military......
 
I guess I'd score them:

1. Romney 8 Obama 2

2. Romney 4 Obama 6

3. Romney 4 Obama 6

total: Romney 16 Obama 14

So a slight win for Romney overall, but in terms of electoral effect Romney's big win overwhelms Obama's slight wins.

-chuckles- careful Adam .. I might start to think you are a moderate ... lets face facts ... . this whole thing boils down to one thing .. Ohio .. . neither one wins with out it. and right now from what polls I've seen .. Ohio is a toss up ...

*LOL* don’t want or don’t need SS or Medicare benefits ?? Just don’t apply for them, you won’t get them. It’s just that simple. Do you really think the government just starts sending you checks when you reach retirement age ???

I was surprised to see that the FiveThirtyEight model gives Obama a 57% chance of winning even if he loses Ohio. Like you, I assumed that Obama was a goner if he lost that one. Apparently not so much. OTOH, it's close to a must-have for Romney.

It depends a bit on which way you have virginia and florida going I believe.

Have them going Romney and Ohio is pretty much required by both. Have Romney not taking either of those and Ohio becomes expendable for Obama but still mandatory for Romney

Obama could lose Ohio, Florida, and Virginia and still win if he picked up Colorado, Wisconsin, Nevada, and Iowa. He presently has narrow leads in all those states, according to 538. Colorado is a virtual tie, though.
 
First Debate Obama 3 Romney 7

Second Debate Obama 7 Romney 3

Third Debate Obama 5 Romney 5

Total - Tied (+/-2)

In the third debate I thought Romney seemed more composed and did not argue much while Obama kept prefacing all his comments with a knock on Romney's. In the second half, Romney returned to form and Obama did the same. So tied.
 
Wow. You're seriously considering the second debate as big of a win for Obama as the first one was for Romney?

Why am I note shocked...

I guess we all know to whom you're referring here, but why is the idea of somebody turning down a pension problematic for you?
