State of the Union Address

Can't you read? The question was which of the GOP candidates is not like Bush.

Based upon the results of Obama doesn't matter, I will take any of those candidates. You on the other hand supports the failed results of Obama

Here's an idea ... why don't you just answer the question instead of skirting away from it with non-sequiturs?
 
Based upon the results of Obama doesn't matter, I will take any of those candidates.

So in other words, you will support increased government, increased government spending, and rising debt. The only difference? An R in front of the president's name.

I will support increased private sector focus and a growing economy. Over my life I have voted for Republicans and Democrats, probably more Democrats than Republicans but then that fact doesn't phase you. It really is too bad that the only perfect candidate, YOU, isn't running.
 
Don't see the class warfare rhetoric as apparently you didn't listen to the entire speech or the content of that speech. This is going to be one dirty election as you and others are always going to attack every word and distort every sentence just to get this failure another four years

There's no misinterpretting what he said. He said he intends to favor the middle class over the other classes. CLASS WARFARE!!

Of course we all know that the policies he's proposed would actually favor the rich, but let's be honest -- no one expects Romney to tell the truth.

Right, because the lower classes have a safety net and the middle class have nothing to protect them

I call BS on you voting more Dems than Reps, but whatever. Fact remains you say you support increased private sector focus and a growing economy, but neither 3 of the GOP front runners are able to provide that.

Hope you don't cry and whine too much when the GOP loses cause they put up clowns. This election was Obama's to lose, but the GOP has made sure he'll win.

By the standard set by those who claim Obama is engaged in class warfare, any mention of class would be class warfare. It's a stupdi argument, but it is the one you make. Often.

I will take the guy with actual business experience and the intelligence to make investments that generated about 25 million a year in income. sounds like the kind of guy we need with a 15.2 trillion dollar debt

Liberals keep raising the issue and I responded. Suggest you read all the posts including the one I was responding to.

So by that logic, Warren Buffet would be a much better candidate, right?
 
Didn' know Buffet was running?

You didn't answer the question, either. Because it obviously highlights a major flaw in your logic. See, John Corzine.
 
That's right, and he made an arseload of money as head of Goldman Sachs. But it seems that being really good at making money didn't translate so well into being a good politician -- as is so often the case.

And we have a President with the following results but from what i understand his golf score has improved.


Jan-09 Dec-11
Unemployment 12049 13097
Discouraged 734 945
Private Sector Emp 133563 131900
Labor Force 154236 153887
Total Employment 142187 140790

Obama today has a net job loss
Obama today has a declining labor force
Obama today has fewer people employed than when he took office
Obama today has almost a million discouraged workers which he has averaged over the past three years
Obama today has a U-6 unemployment of 15.2% or 24 million unemployed/under employed Americans
Obama today has added 4.6 trillion dollars to the debt in 3 years
Obama today spent over 842 billion in a stimulus plan that failed
Obama today has a higher misery index than when he took office
Obama today has participated in crony capitalism and wasted billions of taxpayer dollars trying to pick winners in the private sector
Obama today has promoted class warfare and demonized individual wealth creation
Obama today has seen record numbers in poverty and record numbers of people on food stamps
Obama today still claims he brought this country back from the brink of financial collapse when TARP did
 
And we have a President

Why are you changing the subject? Don't you want to support your argument that making money in business is a great qualification for a politician? You could use Republican governor Rick Scott as an example. He's worth over $100 million. Oops. Looks like he consistently has one of the lowest approval ratings of any governor in the country. Meg Whitman? Karl Paladino?

How much is Obama worth? Not sure what your point is but I will be voting for whoever the Republicans nominate because they beat the alternative in the WH. None are perfect but all are better than what we have. Obama was unqualified for the office and the results show it

I was responding to your point that you support Romney because he made a lot of money.

I would have a number of reasons to support Romney and making money would probably be one of them.

Figures after all your rhetoric about class warfare, you're going to support class warfare.

Where is the class warfare in the Romney statement? Please enlighten us all? Did Romney claim the rich weren't paying their fair share and proposed raising their taxes?

Who do you think you're kidding, Con? Everyone here knows you'd vote for Ayman Al-Zawahiri as long as he put an 'R' after his name.
