You want four more years of this shit?
Ya can't fix stupid.
Did obama eat your children?

Gary Johnson isn't really a libertarian.
I also find it very interesting that more people would rather take a bullet than vote Romney...
Which part was better?
Allowing the worst terrorist attack in history on US soil?
Allowing the banking industry to run wild leading to the worst economic crisis in decades?
What? You like that corporations are citizens and money is speech? These two decisions have destroyed our nation in my opinion. They are a total calamity. It means the mafia owns the government and the people have no say. We will know real soon, I think, if Walker wins.
Perhaps you are focused on the constitutionality of the health care act.
If I couldn't vote for Dr. Paul I would vote Romney, just because I don't want Obama choosing any more Supreme Court justices. We need to keep it conservative leaning until the right to bear arms is recognized for outside of the home, like it was inside of the home in Heller.
The Clinton administration deserves the blame for these two as much as Bush did. Nobody in their right mind would argue that Bush didn't inherit a weak anti-terrorism policy, and federal housing regulations that were basically trying give away federally backed mortgages to people who couldn't afford them.

Romney is a Mass "conservative" which in most places means moderate/slightly left. That's how he'll appoint.
I saw an interview some time back where Obama lamented that our Constitution was one which limited the powers of the federal government, a restrictive rather than permissive system. IMO thats better as the government in theory must give way to the citizen except in defined ways, not the reverse. Yes it's inconvenient to those in power and they must deal. I have no desire to see people selected based on their "creativity" in subverting the limiting principle. That does not mean I care for either candidate. You know I believe parties are far too enamored with themselves, but the reps aren't going to have a more control of the legislature and while Romney has to pander as pols do now he was hardly Newt in MA. Besides he can be tossed, thats not true of the SCOTUS, and I I'm thinking neither party is going to make ideological gains. That's my imperfect opinion and justification on the subject of this cycles Hobson's choice. Before I die I'd like to see someone I could get behind, but the chances are nil. They would be banned before they ran.
Can you provide a link to this interview or this statement?
Ya, you're an enemy of America - thanks for Bush v. Gore and Citizens United among two of the radical right rulings.

Citizens United was an excellent decision.
Saw it on tv some months back.
I find it unlikely that he said that, or if he did it was probably out of context. The right would have had a field day with such a quote.
It wasn't exactly "I can't wait to make everyone my slave" thing. It had more to do with things he'd like but might be difficult considering legal realities. I think it really was an expression of frustration in that things he considers beneficial would be easier if instead of a list of what can be done it were what cannot. I understand that, but I don't want to see things head in that direction.
I'd still very much have to see the quote, it really seems unlikely that he would have said that. There have only been a few interviews with Obama in the last 6 months or so, do you know what channel it was on?
Or, put another way: if Romney will pander to the fringe whackjob elements of his party to get elected, why wouldn't he do the same to get RE-elected?
do all black people look the same to you?
