Please remember most Americans have the attention span of a teetsie fly! Have no idea what history tells us.
It's not about them, it's about the benefits and advantages YOU will get with a Democrat Congress.

It may have been Jon Stewart that used the chess analogy. I know Stewart used a Jedi analogy as well which I thought was appropriate. He could be playing Jedi mind tricks on Boehner and company.
stewart is more smarmy than smart. His cyber slurpage of Obama is funny but Obama isn't the most brilliant guy to be president. Clinton and Bush I and Nixon rank ahead of Obama in the brains department
And on the right you get big defense contractors, big military, expansive wars, less civil liberties, and bad judges.
3) less civil liberties? who wants government control of talk radio via "the fairness doctrine"
Who wants to legislate from the bible? And the fairness doctrine was used to try to kill public radio
that makes no sense
dems hike taxes
try to ban guns
give unions and parasitic plaintiff attorneys more power and more money taken from others
bad judges and justices
Obama is a failure onevery level and if you vote for him you are admitting you are unable to think yourself and passed the Party and look at what is good for America and Americans.
Not! He is the only one that has managed to make congress take health care for all serious and he helped get the #1 on our Top Most Wanted Terrorist List. I am not feeling the fail.[/QUOTE
Kali will you admit that the key thing he did with health care was to create a new entitlement for those currently uninsured. The bill as passed may make relatively minor gains in controlling costs, but nothing like the cost savings we need for the new program as well as existing Medicare and Medicade to be sustainable long term.
He has done some good things, although I admit I never thought killing one terrorist ( while a great thing) is something to give kudos to any president, whether Bush did it or as it turns out it happened under Obama's watch.
In my view the deficit and debt which has skyrocketed because of the recession and a long string of missteps for many years now takes center stage for whomever wants to be President for the next 4 years. It will not be good enough to slam one sides suggestions. If for example the Ryan plan has problems ( which I agree it does) it isn't good enough to say that bill stinks and then go talk about something else. I had a rule at work, when someone objected to an idea from someone they had to propose an alternative. We deserve a real debate on the issues. America is in too much of a financial mess to have another election which is nothing more than a beauty contest.
22-1. Spud is the only person voting 'No' who labels himself a liberal.
i love me some spud.spud doesn't count. He always votes the opposite of what he would. It's his way.

Lawyers are much worse than unions, and most are republicans.
Just sayin'.
Many are worse but you are wrong about the political bent. look at how much money the ABA doles out and to who
many civil defense attorneys are not GOP-they realize that the existence of plaintiff's attorneys butter their bread too. You also might look into who gave what to whom in the last election cycles. Having Catawba thank you on a post to me is usually proof I am correct:mrgreen:
I voted yes, but with the obvious caveat that this assumes that the republicans don't find some one I would actually like. None of the front running republican candidates would get my vote, so Obama.
Someone in the media has been saying he's playing chess, while the rest of us are playing checkers.
