Is Jamesinclair being serious? I can't tell.

Probably. The people who claim to be conservatives tend to be deadly serious on this forum.

To any discussion of petrol prices, all I can say cry more: it's twice as expensive over here, and been rocketing up over the past six years or so. Claiming that petrol price increases is due to Obama is blatant bullshit.

So, uh, I'm curious. What part of the Bible explains our nation's debt problem?

Luke 25, 1: And after they blessed and prayed unto God, a glorious light shone upon them. Seeing this, Peter turned to Simon and Thaddeus and spoke: "Is this not the holy ghost, coming to see us to our mission? Is not Jesus, son of God, gracing us with the knowledge to help us go forth and preach the good news of the Kingdom?"
Luke 25, 2: Suddenly the room shook, splintering the floor and shattering many objects of great importance.
Luke 25, 3: And behold! A voice pierced the air, and to them it seemed to be inside them.
Luke 25, 4: "Is not Israel's debt burdened by the Romans? Are not the people suffering at the hand of these pagans, who sends tax collectors to abuse his chosen people?"
Luke 25, 5: "So sayeth I: Whomsoever shall drape themselves in the respective flags of their chosen country and demand of their rulers 'Shall I not be free to rule my own hand? Shall I not allow myself to feed my children and slaves, even children who are also slaves?'
Luke 25, 6: "Whoa unto thee who leaves such debt responsibility to their children and grandchildren and great grandchildren!"
Luke 25, 7: "And whomsoever shall take control and demand austerity will have his children and grandchildren and great grandchildren blessed, and certainly make it into the Kingdom of Heaven!"
Luke 25, 8: Suddenly Thaddeus, the disciple nobody remembers or fucking cares about, looked down at his feet sullenly. "But lord, is it not okay that I, like, voteth for those who understand that national debt is not the true source of our burdens? Is not a man entitled to his opinion?"
Luke 25, 9: And Jesus said to him: "I shall cast thee into the hellfire, where Satan the deceiver will continue to raise the debt throughout eternity... and in the endless hours of your torment, no one will heareth you scream."

I gave Romney AZ back and gave Obama NM (where he is polling very strongly) and NH just because I don't think Romney will win there

Uhhh.........yeah.........OK

Aggressive recruitment efforts in one of California's most hotly contested voting districts has created a surge of newly minted Republicans like Marleny Reyes.

More than 27,700 residents of the legislative district have become Republicans since January, according to the California secretary of state's office — erasing a registration edge long held by Democrats.

http://articles.latimes.com/2012/sep/29/local/la-me-riverside-voters-20120930

Republicans are pushing hard, and this may just be the October surprise that they need.

Remember prop 8? Its a good proxy for GOP support.

Now take into account that was 2008, aka the democrat landslide election!

36% of all democrats voted for prop 8 as well as 46% of all independents. sure, 82% of all republicans were estimated to vote for prop 8, but the other guys 'helped.'

straws, grasping, etc.

How does the President control gas prices again?

You guys on the right were circle jerking yourself on the night of the debates, I guess it's only allowable when you like it right? GTFOH

Apparently pushing the 'Make Unemployment Number Go Down' button deactivates the 'Make Gas Prices Go Down' button for a period of time.

Hi!

I'm a Republican who believes in the economic policy of Romney but absolutely hates the bible thumping that has been happening lately. If they keep this shit up, I'll vote Democrat but in the long term I'm going to try and get these incumbents out and replace them with a true Republican.

The debate thread said that not enough of us have shown up around here, so here I am.

Lately?? it's been going on since at LEAST the election of Bush II, and to a lesser degree even before that in Reagan's term.

Exactly how long does the GOP have to fellate the religious right before it's 'too much'?

 

[RiccochetJ]

Welcome

Care to list some specific things about his economic policy that you agree with?

Sure!

I believe that the tax cut will bring more people into the area where they're being taxed. It's bringing more people into the tax system. That goes against Obama's idea that it will add billions to the deficit. I believe he's right if things stay the way they are. However, I don't believe that things will stay the way they are if the tax cuts go through. The biggest idea is to bring more people into the tax bracket instead of raising taxes.

I think the biggest misconception is about how companies file taxes. They don't all file the same. Your small to mid size companies file on a individual level which would make Obama's hike affect them negatively where they would in fact have to lay off people.

I'm not against the voucher system. There is a huge caveat on that part. The government has to move away from trying to run it and instead move to having strict regulations to the point where violating those regulations has an extreme consequences.

I honestly believe that there's a cartel happening here with the insurance companies. First thing I believe is that insurance companies cannot enter the stock market. Make a profit, sure... but they can never be beholden to investors. I think government is better at regulating than running. Instead of the pencil pushing bureaucracy, lets have investigators on the payroll.

When it comes to schools and women's bodies?

Edit: And the whole racist thing.

 

[Manmademan]

When it comes to schools and women's bodies?

Absolutely. Southern States have been pushing for "creation science" and whitewashing textbooks into christian friendly variants for decades. This is NOT a new thing.

And women's bodies? Overturning Roe v. Wade has been a GOP platform staple since the supreme court passed it.

The religious right has been steering the priorities of the republican party for a VERY, VERY long time. It's my #1 issue with the party, and the primary reason why as an atheist it is EXTREMELY unlikely I'll support them no matter what their economic policies are.

edit to your edit: oh, but the racism? that's totally new. silly me.
