lol.. you are a true liberal. I bet you were very satisfied with that response.Come on brooks, he didn't give an ultimatum in that video.
He said if he didn't "get it done" in 3 years it would be a one term Presidency for him - as he expected people would vote him out. If people took their emotions out of political discussions then maybe the conversation could be had as to why when you and other hard core Republicans believe he's accomplished jack is he still leading the polls and is going to win?
Has he accomplished more than you are willing to give him credit for? Are there things he couldn't accomplish because he was getting cokblocked every which way in the process? Or even more frightening for Republicans: Are there people out there that accept that maybe he didn't get done everything he had hoped and promised to yet but they would rather have him for another 4 years than ever entertain the thought of putting Romney in the White House? If the latter is the case then loyal party supporters should be asking why the f Romney was nominated in the first place.
What did he get in done? What did he accomplish Shari? I see a lot of typical liberal BS without a single piece of factual information.
and actually yes, that was an ultimatum. Get a dictionary.Last edited by brooks85; 11-02-12, 09:35 AM.Comment -
No brooks, I'm not a Liberal and I don't need a dictionary. However if you feel I would be very satisfied with that response in my Liberalfied world, how do you possibly think it would help the point you were trying to make?
However based on that clip you posted to me it seems you need one so here you go.
ul·ti·ma·tum [uhl-tuh-mey-tuh m, -mah-]
noun, plural ul·ti·ma·tums, ul·ti·ma·ta [-tuh]
1.
a final, uncompromising demand or set of terms issued by a party to a dispute, the rejection of which may lead to a severance of relations or to the use of force.
2.
a final proposal or statement of conditions.
He wasn't making an ultimatum. He didn't say: "If I don't have xxxx done or if you don't do this for me by xxxx then I won't run". He said "If I don't have xxxx done by xxxx then I won't be voted back in". Prediction does not = ultimatum. I'll provide a dictionary reference for the word prediction if you need it as well. Just let me know.
Guy underestimated how badly the Repubs would fukk up by nominating Romney. At the time he did this interview - and even today - there are thousands of candidates out there who would've had a better shot.
Again: Look to your own party as to why not only IS he going to be voted back in but they fronted a candidate that even some party members can't fully support with a straight face.Comment -
The liberals concede Obama is terrible and has not done anything except plunder us into debt. Their argument is so what if he is incompetent on economic issues, he's black, he believes in unGodly big government and so do they.
You see them say its all wrapped up and now there is a report the Democratic Party is $100 million in debt. LOL, par for the course.Comment -
Romney meddling in someone's right to choose when it comes to reproduction or whom they marry isn't being a "big government"? Then tell your boy to gtfo and mind his own business!!
George Washington, that little guy that I'm starting to think many have forgotten about, introduced the Tariff Act of 1789 aka the Hamilton Tax.
That tax set the foundation for how the US economy operates today. It's because of those principles that little kids aren't allowed to work any more and food needs to be produced safely in the US amongst hundreds of other things - standards that have been adopted world wide. Take out that "big government" slur that it seems some like to latch onto without realising heads of the Republican Party also advocated for and supported these policies and people might realise that most people want the same things at the end of the day.Comment -
I've lost a lot of respect for you throughout this political process John.
Not that you care, but your partisan hackery is borderline startling. Figured you'd be much more P.C. or keep a much lower profile given your position at SBR, but I guess not.
And again, this is coming from a registered Independent who has pulled the lever for more red than blue in my voting life.Comment -
fuk you talking about, Romney gives woman the option to get an abortion for rape, or if she's to poor to support the kid, you're infringing on Christians who dont believe in that shit but have to pay for it anyway. How about this don't get pregnant if you don't want a kid take some responsibility, or how about buy your own birth control, 6 dollars a fuking month we are fighting about. Only libtardsComment -
Beautiful that YOU think Romney supports a woman who is too poor to afford an abortion. But big hint you bloody numpty: HE DOESN'T BELIEVE THAT.
So how about you take that $6 and although I'd like to tell you to shove it up your arse, you invest in a bit of a brain and go research what your guy actually is yapping stands for. It'll be hard as it's constantly changing but if you put in a bit of effort... meh no. I agree it's useless.
Bloody hell people come the fukk on.Comment -
Serious question: are you allowed to think on your own according to Faux News by-laws?
I've said it before and I'll say it again: that channel has completely devastated the Republican party that I once knew. It's sad to see what it has become, and the bullshit the drones who still back it spew. Just a pathetic, desperate shell of its former self.
The fact that you assumed I have or will vote for Obama simply based on my disgust for the direction -- or lack thereof -- of the Republican party is a perfect epitaph.Comment -
i know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy who brother works for the govt....its all a hustle....ive seen the CIA give out free $ to the poor as well.....ALL 1$ coins.....DONT DRINK THE WATERComment -
Romney never supported abortion in terms of rape or due to financial hardship. He ran on Ryan's plan which was to eliminate abortion altogether. Romney said during debate that he was for abortion in terms of rape only after about 6 months of campaigning the other way because he saw how badly he was getting destroyed in the female vote. You don't know anything about Romney and neither does anyone else because he refuses to stick to anything he proposes. And infringing on Christians who don't believe in that shit? Who gives a crap? Government is not influenced by religion, nor should it ever be, that's a fundamental principle of the separation of church and state. Christians don't believe in war either, but they have to pay for that shit too.
Ever have sex with someone before marriage? Yeah then you took a stab at getting someone pregnant without intent, therefore any argument about "don't get pregnant, take some responsibility" is completely futile and worthless by logical reasoning.
Romney and Ryan are focused wayyyyy too much on their respective religions and those values impacting government decisions. This isn't 1846, we're not looking to return to puritanical values. FFS, Romney is Mormon. It's THE biggest horseshit made-up religion the world has ever seen with zero roots in established doctrine. They were literally commanded by a snake oil salesman, it's so so sad.
I have the utmost respect for faith, which is wonderful and gives people hope and inspiration, but organized religion is based on the theory of division and supremacy. Believing in a God or THE God or whatever you want to call it, was never started by any religion, it was an instinctual belief among certain human beings in response to questions of self-worth. Believing in a Roman Catholic God, Protestant God, Islamic God, etc... was developed by opportunistic men in order to separate themselves from other sects and usurp power.Comment -
Yeah, they've done massive research on candidates who've wanted to do away with the title of In God We Trust, which was seen to be a motto developed out of the Civil War originally to declare God on the side of the Union, then revised during the Cold War to promote the "right" side of the conflict against opposing Soviet sects. Supposedly, trying to remove it now would do massive damage to any candidate's popularity since so many citizens of the US (73%) identify as Christian denomination. It's a shame they did away with E pluribus unum as the de facto motto just so that they could use God against their enemies in an effort to rally morale, hence my point about religion's divisive nature. If Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Franklin, etc.. and the original forefathers were around, they would abhor such a phrase on official government currency as it was the exact opposite of what they intended for the country and governing policy, and many of them were very religious in their own personal lives.Comment -
You're kidding right? You honestly take offense to that? Small minds think alike, countries going broke u.s dollars about to collapse lets talk about god and abortion thoughComment -
Overspent???? You are a dumb f\*\*k.... who got us in to that Iraq bullchit?????
Get a clueComment -
True, 10 to 16 trillion. Shall we dissect where most of it went and why? It really does not look good for George Bush in that respect... Not to mention the myriad of things George Bush is responsible for that caused Obama to force a stimulus. No matter how much Obama may have spent, he will never in the history of this country, go down as a worse president than George Bush. An unconstitutional war for starters... (unnecessary as well for that matter)Comment -
That's actually a literal impossibility. Obama was not responsible in any way, shape or form for the sub prime mortgage crisis and securities bubble which WAS responsible for the majority (about 72%) of the increase of the deficit for which you blame him. I know this for FACT, because he hadn't assumed office yet when the crisis speculation collapsed the markets, therefore it was a literally impossibility for him to have been involved in said crisis. Therefore by your rationale, the person who overspent to restore the budget is in no logical comparison as guilty as the one who created the collapse and need for such spending.

Buried? LOL. not even close unless you are referring to yourself
