Osama is dead

[dapoes]

In a show of respect to terrorists who gleefully behead civilians, Obama will not release pictures of a dead Osama. If you murder 1000s of American civilians Obama will order you killed, then go to great lengths to ensure your religious beliefs are honored and respected. Thats some serious Hope and Change?

Which polls?

Apparently the polls that matter! We all know where you get your info !

Which polls?

Oh Shite I just had it the other day and I read the article and deleted it I think. I'll go look Dog. It wasn't from some right wing rag I'll tell you that. I think it was Zogby which is usually pretty accurate

UPDATE:

I found this after a brief Google Search published in the Huffington Post. It's a collection of recent polling date from several credible news sources so let's dispense with the "Liberal Rag" derision and accept it as some decent journalism.

Polling Data

Maybe all this is just a diversion for...

This?

Or This?

Tim, good luck with that issuance of fresh $72 billion next week. Oh, and did I mention there is $492 billion in maturities and $31 billion in interest outflows? Oops my bad!

Or This?

The World is Already Dumping the US Dollar

First and foremost, China and Russia agreed late last year to begin trading with one another in their own currencies, NOT the US Dollar. In that step alone, two of the largest emerging markets (and economies) in the world moved away from the US Dollar. Add to this the fact that China just agreed to expedite trade relations with Brazil and you’ve got the beginnings of a flight from the US Dollar and the end of the Dollar’s reserve currency status.

Oh I don't know about all of that. I think the numbers are to small to make much difference. Hey maybe they'll join the Ron Paul Revolution? That would make everyone happy 😀 😀

If we start looking at where the money comes from for Presidential Elections, NO ONE would get elected. The two biggest vote getters in that scenario would be Ralph Nader and Ron Paul if he ran as a Libertarian and Nader as a Green.

You are seriously going to entertain that drivel? The use of Geronimo's name was short sighted and stupid on the military's part. Just another indication of the short sightedness and insensitivity of people. I seriously doubt it will affect anyone's vote. To imply that the killing of a terrorist is going to affect anyone's vote is about as credible as the flat worlders.

1.3 trillion in government spending missing!

Sunlight Foundation has done an extensive investigation of USASpending.Gov’s data and found 1.3 Trillion missing. They’ve submitted FOIA requests to the administration for this data six months ago, but as you might’ve been able to guess the administration is stonewalling:

Dont hold your breath furball.

Here's my unvarnished opinion as you missed the point I was trying to make RE: Money and Politics.

If on September 1, 2012 gas is at or above $5.00/gallon, Obama loses and the Republicans could run the Mayor of Hastings NE and win.

Gas under $3.50 and he wins hands down.

I think it's just that simple as if Gas is at or near historic highs all the Republican has to say is "Drill Baby Drill" and it's over.

I do not agree. I don't think fuel prices will have much of an effect on the out come. Things such as the jobless rate, economy, health care will play a larger roll. The first party who can 'win' the budget debate will take the election. So far, neither side has a plan or the gumption to make one.

Which is why I think the debate will be about the price of gas. Gentleman's Wager?

 

[Ms Tree]

Sure. Fuel price will not be the primary argument in 2012.

Given the whole "Birther" issue & the perception of no credibility it's abundantly clear to me that a large part of our society is requiring what any insurance company would require before paying out on a policy. It's called "PROOF OF DEATH".

He danced around the whole Birth Certificate issue for reasons know only to him. Now it should come as no surprise that he lacks even a shred of credibility with a relatively large segment of the US population. Right or Wrong his credibility was shot in the ass when he made the Guns & Religion remark,

Do you really think providing a photo is going to make a difference to the sort of ignorant fools who bought into the birther crap and now "require" a picture of Osama's ventilated skull? Just remember that despite all the pictures, scientific data etc there are still people who say the moon landings were faked.

Come out the cave Dude.....LOL

Fuel prices making it either food or gas won't be an issue in 2012?
Fuel prices already are having an effect on jobs as we speak.
Fuel prices already are forcing people to cut spending which in itself will cut into the GDP and spiral down the 'recovery'....
Fuel prices are already at the point where mortgages become another problemo.....

Drill baby drill......and the greater portion of American consumers will support the mantra.

Who will be the 'Drilling Candidate'?

Obama could diffuse this situ much as Bush did by implying drilling, but no , he goes to Brazil and touts how we ready to buy their oil.....all the while domestic exploration is dead.

Whats wrong with this picture and what will the campaign ads reflect?

I think he has very little credibility in general and less than zero with me. His decision to move on OBL which I applaud has raised his stock with me from totally worthless to nearly worthless. As to the "Birther" thing, I've seen polls and I posted an article from the Huffington Post that suggests he has lost a great deal of credibility. IIRC the CNN poll had some 38% who had doubts that he was born here. Doesn't matter that to think that makes them dumb as a bag of hammers. What is does speak to is his dwindling credibility heading into an election year.

Given his continued loss of credibility and gas headed to $6.00/Gal like a jail on wheels, he has a real problem. If he doesn't address the price of gas the Republicans can put the Mayor of Tin-Cup Colorado (pop 187) on the ballot and win. We are a coin operated society and when people have to make choices between Groceries & Gas whomever is in office is going to get covering in manure and nobody is going to give him a shovel

 

[dapoes]

Its all about priorities...

Pictures of Osama? Nah, not important.

Pictures of Obama, very important..."Once Obama was off the air, we were escorted in front of that teleprompter and the President then re-enacted the walk-out and first 30 seconds of the statement for us."
