So let me see if I have this straight???

[opie1988]

With the United States being the most active country in world deploying troops and dropping bombs to force their views on everyone else it hardly seems like it is just our business who we elect...

I would say it is absolutely just our business.

Look herb, we all know you're a liberal, hippie fukk....but where else in the world besides the USA could you hop on a crowded bus and ride for 40+ hours straight with a bunch of smelly strangers??

Wait, that's not a good example....

We can debate, argue and bitch from now till the end of time and none of it will make a difference. The plain truth is there is not a decent candidate. It will continue to be a repetitive cycle of liars, crooks and self indulging hypocrites.

We are a nation of have and have nots. The haves feel entitled and the have nots feel owed and both sides are complete idiots. The haves didn't get to where they are without some serious sweat off the backs of the have nots. The have nots aren't have nots because the opportunity isn't there for them to become the haves.

You can spin it anyway you want but you don't have a better option available in the current Presidential Race and until the collective bar is raised it won't get any better in our lifetime because as is represented right here in this thread the people with the real power can't get past their own ignorance and personal interest to make a difference for the better. Whomever is elected we have noone to blame but ourselves.

[Thor4140]

I'm actually a 3 time Bush voter. Damn I wish there could be a 4th!

You really lost this argument as soon as you cited "New York Magazine" as your source. Like those liberal Jew prikks should be trusted. Please. I love the way you acted like saying you got from "New York Mag" was going to impress someone.
Silly Thor, you little comic book lovin' nerd!! Don't ever change, pal.

Now, as far as your challenge ...let's set up a wager thru John or Lou at SBR. We can use whatever proof you require to determine my income. I'm 100% onboard with this starting immediately! Nothing would make me happier than to take the "last dollar" of some liberal retard like you!!

Let's do it, Thor. I'll be your huckleberry, pal!!

The only reason i question your income is because everything else you say is a lie. U are a despicable racist to the tenth power. U lie continuously unfortunately i think, u think, u are actually right. Typical neo-con ass kisser who sites my source as being wrong as his argument. Priceless stuff. My source is dead on and your very first post is nothing but horse shit. Taxes will be raise (maybe) on money over 250,000. So let me help you with some math. If you make 260 thou the taxes that will be raised would be on the ten thousad above the 250 thousand. Not the whole 260 thousand. Somebody has to pay for these wars Bush and Cheney lied us into which u rubber stamped. 5000 kids will never see the light of day again and you say u would vote for these assholes again? You are a self centered racist prick and a dumb one at that.

Scared of my challenge? I thought so. Typical brokedikk fukk hates anyone who isn't content to be a lazy bottom dweller.

How do you peg me as a racist? Because I use the word colored? Please. I think its fairly clear what my motive is with that. I have friends of every color. Unlike you, I don't feel the need to feel sorry for someone based on the color of their skin. Respect is earned.

Is this really all you got, Thorax??

[BettingWizard]

you voted for bush.

twice.


who cares what you think?

Oh it will make plenty of difference to whom is elected. See liberals have no clue that Obama is a communist.

[griz]

Opie is a bush family member. Cousin or some shit.

[griz]

Typical one percent attitude here. Protect their money, claim that anyone who doesnt have any is lazy, and attack others who hold different views

Opie go fukk yourself pal. Why don't you take one of your mansions and shove them up your ass

[CarpeDime]

Typical one percent attitude here. Protect their money, claim that anyone who doesnt have any is lazy, and attack others who hold different views

yup, thats exactly right

people complain about all the corporate-politics scams going on in the US, but what they fail to realize is that ALL those scams are open to EVERY US CITIZEN if you are willing to work hard and are smart enough to find your way onto the right side of one of the scams.

griz there are MANY, NOT JUST BANKING/FINANCE industry scams.

There is insurance, Big Pharma, Big Oil, the military industrial complex, the politics industry itself, state-level political influence, and many many more. And then there are the services that cater to those on the right side of the scams and suport the scams, including law and accounting and media and advertising in support of the scams.

Look at all the scams there are. Look at who IS represented in Washington instead of looking at who ISN'T represented in Washington. Look at who IS represented in politics at the state level instead of who ISN'T. And work hard and find your way into one of the scams. And then you will be one of the people who BENEFITS from it, instead of one of the people who gets crushed by it.

If you are getting fukked by the tax code, then look at the tax code and figure out how to be one of the people doing the fukking, not getting fukked.

THAT is the great thing about America. The institutionalized scams are open to ANYONE who is smart and willing to work hard.

SO stop complaining about who Opie is, and DO SOMETHING, as Opie has done, and then you can BE LIKE OPIE.

[acl123]

Merica
Fukk Yeah

[mmaed]

Nobody is getting "******" by the tax code. It is the biggest joke. The bottom 50 percent of earners pay nothing. The top 20 percent of earners pay approximately 80 percent of all the revenue. It's a ridiculous argument to say the richest americans are screwing everyone else when they are paying all the taxes. Lets not forget that they are the most productive. How many inventions can you name that somone in the top 5 percent of incomes didnt earn? How many successful businesses? This gets silly after a while.

The fukk? Where did this come from??

I've never belittled anyone for a lack of affluence. I should be the last person to ever do that. As I've said, I grew up lower class. Lived in a double wide for the first couple of years I was married. I have no room to look down on anyone.

I've always been the first in line to offer words of encouragement to you as you were contemplating your career change. I wish nothing but the best for anyone who puts forth the effort to try for a better life. I love hearing success stories from guys like yourself. It inspires me.

The only people I rip are those too lazy to try to work for things that are out of their reach. I'll never be okay with that. And I refuse to believe that the days of someone rising above their socio-economic class are over. It's simply not true. Opportunities are out there everywhere you look. I think to fall prey to those resigned-to-your-fate beliefs are simply the excuses of someone not willing to put in the hard work success requires.

Not sure where this came from, Griz. It's disappointing. Never pegged you as a follower.

[poloyol]

I'm confused...is this a Sports Forum?

[rickbo528]

When asked about the ACA (or Obamacare) - Americans oppose it

Yet when asked about the specifics of it - they support (by a good margin)

So basically Americans love pizza, they just don't like the box it comes in.

Wait till they see what it will do TO THEM!!!!!! The ignorant ones who think its all free are in for one big shock.

[rickbo528]

Because Romney is a crook while Obama is trying to help poor America.

I understand rich America supporting Romney but poor Americans who are republicans remind me of that kkk skit with Dave chappelle.

Such an intelligent well thought out response. That will sure change some minds.

Hey Peter.....you see that guy that gave you those 2 points? The same guy who nominated my last post?

Well, let me clue you in, pal. HARDBALL IS THE SMARTEST SON-OF-A-BITCH ON THIS FORUM!!

He rarely reveals himself, and when he does, you best fukkin stand at attention, son. When Robert (forsberg) and I would be engaged in one of our countless debates, and, as sometimes happened, Robert would be clearly winning, more than once my dear friend Hardball would show up out of nowhere and with just a few keystrokes have Robert curled up on his bed in the fetal position listening to Spiders by System of a Down.

Hardball only has like 86 posts on here total....and 82 of those are epic fukkin burials. So consider your libtard ass privileged, Pete. Hardball sees through your fraudulent posts attempting to come off as a patriotic American. He most likely knew what you would write even before you did. That's the kind of brain power you're dealing with here, pal.

He's given you an opportunity to gain respect simply by acknowledging your existence on here. Don't fukk it up.

[rickbo528]

Looking at your avatar I would sumrise that you have never fired a weapon in your life, and that you only display it in hopes to achieve sexual orientation with poster sideloaded, because he likes cool shlt like guns and blowing shlt up.

Sorry to disappoint you but I OWN ONE. Ammo is expensive though. In the military I got to fire all kinds of weapons. Yes I also own other "scary" weapons. When you are defending a nation you actually have to be proficient.

[itchypickle]

Are you really dumb enough to think you will be paying less taxes with Romney?

He says he is going to massively build up the military. How his he going to do this by waving his magic wand?

Easy, restructure and base closure and more modularization similar to what Rummy started before he left office.... streamline the military to a current need and not the old. The plans are already written just need to be signed off on and let it roll, troop levels have already been assigned for it and there are tons of people getting out due to the trend shifting back to a 1980's style level. All of this can be done at current funding and even less if it comes to it.

you scums*cking liberal fuk, I CANNOT be buried

do you know how many people have tried to bury me and I have not been swayed or affected one inch? I do not care what anyone says about me

for example, i have been denying global warming since DAY 1, and do you know how many idiots have tried to bury me for that? they were like "98% of science PHDs agree with global warming for the following reasons........" and then they would go on and on and on for hours, yapping yapping yapping, and then at the end they'd be like "there we buried you" and I'd be like "um, no you didn't. I don't care what you have to say, I am still exactly the same as when you started, I still know that global warming is BS, and if you say one more word to me I will consider it harassment and I will be able to legally blast you under the Stand Your Ground law" yeah, that shut those nerds up REAL fukin quick hahahahah lol

they tried the same sh*t with me about Christianity, they tried showing me passages in The Bible about how you can't eat shellfish but I eat it anyway, etc etc etc etc blah blah blah, you know the deal. Was I buried? No. God does exist and He is Christian ONLY, end of conversation. I know because I have Common Sense. When I got fed up I used the same harassment/Stand Your Ground thing, and guess what? Once again they shut up REAL QUICK hahahah lol

so i cannot be buried, only someone with Common Sense could bury me, but anyone who tried to bury me would, by definition, not have Common Sense. Therefore I cannot be buried.

Anyway, congrats on 10,000 posts pal! And think about the under 7 (or buy to 7.5) in Hou/SD tonight!

Also congrats on starting a Thread Of The Year 2012 contender pal! It's probably just a race for second to sideloaded's thread, but still, great job!

Transcripts won't be release because he was enrolled as a foreign student and received grants as a foreign exchange student

If I was Romney I'd gamble with I'll release the returns once you release the transcripts

[MoneyLineDawg]

I absolutely can't stand the republican party as a whole and their backwards way of thinking (Bible thumpers and uneducated white trash annoy me more than any other group) and Mitt Romney reeks of a typical BS politician

However, I can't stand the liberal way of thinking when it comes to government handouts.....

Why won't people embrace the libertarian way??? Republicans and Democrats, just answer that? its clearly the best of both worlds.....

1/2 of Obama votes will come from voters that have been claiming unemployment benefits for the last 3 years and currently filling out permanent disability because their Fibromyalgia has them bedridden.

Unfukking real. You no work, you no vote. You no pay taxes, you no vote. You no HS education, you no vote.

It's sickening we give voting rights to individuals that dropped out of elementary school, never took a history or politics class and only sell drugs to get by. It will be one of those votes that cancels Opie's vote. The guy that actually has an MBA and runs multiple businesses as well as minority owner of an online gambling review forum.

Don't know about you but I work with a handful of complete dumbfukks at my company......Have also met much smarter non-workers

No perfect formula

[The Kraken]

But at least they're doing something. Not everyone can be as smart as the average SBR poster. Genetics influences intelligence too much. But we all have a role to play. And even the janitors at your work are doing the best they can and paying their taxes. More importantly, they're not receiving an unemployment check funded by my taxes.

1/2 of Obamas voting base collects unemployment. 100% of Occupy Wall St. protesters voted for Obama and 80% are either homeless or jobless.

These are the people that are influencing my childrens future. Just unreal.

Perfect formula is to weight votes

Higher your taxable income/year, more your vote counts
Higher your education, more your vote counts
More arrests, DUI's, drug sales etc..., less your vote counts
More money you receive in government assistance, less your vote counts
Own a business? Vote counts even more

This is the way to straighten this fokkn country out

[King Mayan]

All the people I know that are voting for Obama, work for a living..

Mayan, all #'s are made up... I'm just having a miniature racism attack. It will go away.

Weird Archie, I was thinking the EXACT same things

[Cougar Bait]

I love the fact that we have these arguments about the rich not paying their "fair share" when life in fact is not fair to begin with. Maybe no one ever heard the phrase "Life isn't fair" before. You could tax every millionaire 100% of their income and still not even put a dent in the amount of money we owe.

My guess is people are too stupid to use a calculator. Because if you're not for some fiscal responsibility right now you're either A) living off the government-don't feel bad, you're almost the majority at this point B) Not great at basic math or C) Blame other people for your shortcomings.

Personally I couldn't imagine blaming someone else for my lot in life, but then again I am doing pretty well. I don't know what my stance would be if I were living off the government because I guess that never really enters in as an option. For instance, if I got fired tomorrow, I would have a job by Saturday, in a city with 19% unemployment, and without a college degree.

So suck it up and stop bitching about fairness and this notion that because someone else did well that means you didn't.
