That's it. Because he has so many houses I'm switching my vote to Obama.

I'm still not voting for either of those spoiled aristocrats.
 
Good idea I'll go steal some money for my self. This is the real "redistribution of wealth".

Do you honestly believe the only way to earn money is to steal it? Because that is the implication here.

seems rather common for unsuccessful people to believe successful people got their money through theft nowadays...and ,sadly, that mindset with be a very large impediment to their own success.
 
Sigh people that pick and chose what they read. If you read my other post I've supported a lot of other rich people.
 
I guessed zero because I thought he and Ann were living in some basement apartment. :2razz:
In any event, it does not matter.
 
I think there's a plethora of better reasons to switch your vote to Obama.

Ya, like Obama will grow welfare to meet the needs of those that lost their jobs under his economy. Or, Obama will pay for health care for those that don't want it and force those that do want it to pay more. Or, Obama will raise taxes on the middle class while pretending to do something completely different (wait...he already did that).

Blah, blah, blah. Meanwhile Republicans are trying hard to make the idea of Romney sit well without throwing up a lot in their mouths. A year ago, I bet many would have shot themselves in the head if Miss Cleo had told them he'd be the nominee.

We have what we have and he is by far the better choice. There is no question that the last four years could not have gone much worse, nor could a president have done much more to sabotage an economy. He raised taxes on the middle class, drove up business costs and increased the cost of health care while reducing accessibility through the unAffordable Health Care Act. He drove up inflation through QE1 and QE2. He created uncertainty in energy markets by threatening cap and trade and not approving off shore drilling. He killed jobs by not approving the pipeline from Canada to Texas. He has never once proposed a budget that got one single vote. He never addressed the deficit. Obama has been the definition of failure.

I wouldn't expect you to think any differently.

You are a joke. Before Romney became the candidate you couldnt spell Bain if I spotted you the B and the N. Today Bain is the root of all evil. Meanwhile you completely ignore the GM bailout and reorg and jobs shipped overseas, dealers forced to shut down, non union employees thrown under the bus, or good ol Obamas buddy Jeffrey Imelt and where he is talking a whole butload of GE jobs.

Know whats wrong with the country? People like you. Blind partisan hacks.

Sriuzly dood...you are just as bad as ANY of the election day johns that have been popping up this last month and your posts prove it. OR...alternatively I guess you COULD just be that ****ing stupid that you believe everything is the fault of one party or ideology and that your precious democrats and liberal business owners arent as culpable. I am actually ASSUMING you are blind by choice. I suppose I could be wrong.

Last post to you vancemack you are one of the most one sided partisan individuals on this forum...you have absolutely no ability to be honest about any issues, all you do is spout right wing talking points , then make your weak attempts at trying to denigrate others that disagree with you.
Not only do I believe your blinded by your right wing prejudice and extreme ideology...I just dont think you have any knowledge of anything but what foxnews and rush limbaugh tells you ..theres nothing to discuss with you any further...all you do is toss around insults and you dont have any original thoughts of your own...ciao

Best rebuttal to your "Oh look at me Im not a mindless partisan" offering...

Yeah...you.
 
How is this meaningful? I own 8 houses and I financed another 3 houses for friends of mine. So, technically I own 11 houses. I assure you I am not rich so trying to judge anything by "the number of houses" means nothing.
Gee, I thought we were doing well owning 3 homes. We use two and a family membor uses the other. One mortage for about 75% of one at 4%; and we wish we has bought it outright. You might think you're not rich and you might think owning 8 houses means nothing but I bet many would find that you ownership of homes does influence their judgement of you. We are a bit careful about telling people we own 3.
 
and some dems claim that there is no class envy permeating the dem hatred of Governor Romney
 
Homes are good conservative investments though it doesn't really stimulate the economy as much as investing in ground breaking research such as fusion or the I pad.

The point is people owning 15/8 or anything over 5 needs to realize the average american has only one or zero. You can't implement good policies without understanding the state of the nation and it's people and how they think.

I'm not saying Romney doesn't realize most people have 1 home.
 
Let me just say that I bet you would justify the disaster that was the Bush administration like it was peaches n' cream.

Under Bush, I was very much against the medicare/medicaid debacle and the No Child Left Behind and the deficit spending. Under Obama I am very much against the tax policies, deficit spending and Obamacare. They all have a singular driving theme...I want a smaller government that fits within the Constitution. But you didn't answer my question...would you define this President as successful?

Why do you think there is outsourcing? Could it be because our tax structure makes domestic labor too expensive? Could it be that free trade gives an unfair advantage to countries with a lower standard of living? That's a yes on both accounts. This is why so many people want to wipe to tax laws from the books and start over. This is why there is renewed calls for sensible tariffs.
