Obama and his cohorts must be worried. With these numbers, the WH is taking Perry more seriously than you are
 
Obama and his cohorts are well aware that he's in a dog fight.

As I recall you said that the GOP was in for a shock and that the Democrat losses wouldn't be as bad as predicted and in fact that Democrats would have a more favorable showing. Democrats recorded record losses as the state and national level so you were way off and wrong.

Allow me to educate you on how these things are done
1) you actually do the work to find my exact quotes making predictions
2) you print them
3) you show me where I was wrong

As I recall....... is lame and does not even come close to cutting it.

No problem, I am sure your vote was cast a few times by Democrat activists. I did hear that activists in Chicago are upset however since the city is broke and no longer putting indigents names on head stones in the cemetary. That is making it hard for Democrat registration groups to register the dead which could make Chicago in play in the 2012 elections.

That's it?? We learn that while Bush was president, $1.2 trillion was doled out in corporate welfare to Wall Street, far exceeding that Bush told us would be given them, and you turn a blind eye to it?

How much impact do you suppose that $1.2 trillion had on the deficit Bush handed Obama? The deficit for FY2009 was $1.8 trillion. That $1.2 trillion we're now learning about isn't even the $1.2 trillion Bush's FY2009 budget was expect to fall short of.

Aren't you the one complaining 80 times a day about the debt? How much do you suppose that drove up the debt??

Where's your outrage, Con? How come you're never outraged at Bush or his peeps, no matter how badly they ****ed this country? Obama sneezes and we get 400 posts from you whining that Obama sneezed.


The $1.2 trillion peak on Dec. 5, 2008 -- the combined outstanding balance under the seven programs tallied by Bloomberg -- was almost three times the size of the U.S. federal budget deficit that year and more than the total earnings of all federally insured banks in the U.S. for the decade through 2010, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.​


Well, Con? Any outrage? Any at all?

That's just part of the huge pile of mess Bush left for Obama.

Absolutely, I won't be voting for Bush in 2012 but won't be voting for Obama either as his results on the deficit are worse than Bush's. Bush had nothing to do with 2010 and 2011 spending. Your obsession with a former President is nothing more than a diversion. You really need to get some help for this obsession you have for the past and GW Bush. "Your" incompetent President has results that have given him a declining approval rating and results which will be on the ballot in 2012, not Bush's results.

Absolutely. Perry's hard hitting message of JOBS, JOBS, JOBS.....will overwhelm Obama's asshattery of raising taxes, socializing a few more industries, and spending a few more trillion borrowed dollars for solving, the issue

Double-Dipping - 0 points

Jobs - 2.5 points

That's only because he's not running. It has nothing to do with $1.2 trillion dollars being handed to Wall Street on his watch. This just adds to the collection of evidence which proves results don't matter to you -- all that matters to you is the "R" after the candidate's name.

That hardly matters. Let's forget for the moment that your vote in Texas is meaningless since it's foregone conclusion that Texas is voting red; Obama could have brought unemployment down from 7 point something to 5 point something and you'd still vote against him. GDP could be clsoe to 4% and you'd still vote against him. You've proven that. And it's because results don't matter to you.

No chance of Obama reducing unemployment as he doesn't even have a plan and it took over a trillion dollars in Stimulus spending to generate over 9% unemployment. "Your" empty suit, incompetent President does have a great smile and with the help of a teleprompter gives a good speech full of words but very short on positive results.

Aw, gee, maybe this one will be better for you.

There's an old sea story about a ship's Captain who inspected his sailors, and afterward told the first mate that his men smelled bad..

The Captain suggested perhaps it would help if the sailors would change underwear occasionally.

The first mate responded, "Aye, aye sir, I'll see to it immediately!"

The first mate went straight to the sailors berth deck and announced, "The Captain thinks you guys smell bad and wants you to change your underwear."

He continued, "Pittman, you change with Jones, McCarthy, you change with Witkowski, and Brown, you change with Schultz."

THE MORAL OF THE STORY:

Someone may come along and promise "Change", but don't count on things smelling any better.

Thanks, Obama for that change that doesn't smell very well.

I can only gather from that you preferred negative 9% GDP, losing 700,000+ jobs a month, and a Dow at 8,000.

Actually, Republicans employ voter suppression techniques all of the time on blacks and low incomes. For example in 2004 the former Sec. State of Ohio, Ken Blackwell, cut down the number of voting machines in Cleveland black areas so they would have to stand in long line in the rain. There was a case in I think New Hampshire where they jammed the phone lines of the Democratic headquarters, so they couldn't get the vote out.

Hell, Bush's brother in Florida had a felon's list drafted because convicted felons in Florida are not allowed to vote unless they get their voting right explicitly reinstated and the list of felons rightfully inlcuded black felons but wrongly excluded hispanic felons. Oddly enough in Florida, blacks tend to vote Democrat and hispanics tend to vote Republican. I can't imagine anyone thinks only one party commits election fraud.

Actually I love how you judge Bush on a few months but ignore the past 2 1/2 years. Bush had nothing to do with the results I have posted over and over again that you ignore and it only cost over a trillion dollars to generate those wonderful Obama results. Bush isn't on the ballot in 2012 and apparently your in ability to understand what a failure the stimulus program was has led to an increase in your BDS. Seek help

LOL. It looked pretty darned slow to me. But then Captain America has been pretty darned well behaved for a while. It is time for him to get back up on his high horse again. Right Captain?

By the way, this is a good group we have here. Leftists who need to be saved, centrists who need to stand for something and we rightist who, well, are right. :)

Thanks to all for an enjoyable experience.

Bush this, Bush that, I have never seen such an obsession with Bush. What did he ever do to hurt you or your family that creates this kind of obsession? You are out of control on this issue. I feel sorry for you

You have my sympathy.

Is your medical condition any reason to hope for the destruction of the entire health care industry in the US?

If affordability is your goal why don't you fight to get government completely out of health care? Eliminate the regulations and have people pay for health care like they pay for groceries or car repairs.
