    Agreed.

    What this country needs is a frontal lobotomy.

    Maybe another Civil War.

    Mecha-Steve Jobs will reanimate and lead the liberal army

    Say what you want.
    But I will say one thing.
    Romney got elected as a republican Governor to the most liberal state in the Union after Hawaii.

    Don't count him out.
    He has been successful in everything is has done and is very smart.

    He got a 3.97 GPA from Harvard Business School and Harvard Law School at the same time. Not an easy thing to do.
    He was successful in building a business, Bain Capital, which is one of the most respected private equity firms in the country.
    He turned around the Salt Lake Winter Olympics.
    When he did that, everyone was praising him in 2002.
    He then went on to be the Governor of Massachusetts, and did a great job here.

    I really do not know why Ann Coulter likes Chris Christie so much, but I would take Romney any day over Chris Christie.
    Romney has proven he is a winner time and time again.

    In all seriousness, he has an incredible work ethic, that puts even Bill Clinton's work ethic to shame.
    Bill Clinton was known for working long hours really late into the night and thus had a reputation for being and hard worker as well as sleep deprived.

    The other thing is, Romney is really moderate.
    When he was running in the 2008, he was accused of not being conservative enough and being too moderate.
    Funny how he is being accused of being too conservative now.

    The point is, he is pretty moderate and has a proven track record of being able to get things done.
    That appeals to undecided voters and independents.
    I would be willing to bet that he gets the majority of last minute undecided voters as well as independents.
    If he pulls the majority of undecided and independent voters, Romney wins the election.

    What? Did you read a book somewhere? Your arrogance is alarming, moe.

    And yes, I'm going to enjoy the look on ya'lls face come November. Your boy has done NOTHING but dig his hole a little deeper everyday. And he'll never get out of it. But he will enjoy his retirement on your donations though.

    LOL go re-read up on the Civil War (or watch the Art of War documentary Moe is probably referring to.) then get back to Moe. The war was basically lost based on his unpopular stupid ass decisions at Gettysburg.

    Sorry to take a steamy piss on your Stars and Bars, Johnny Reb. You better brush up on your military history.

    Robert E Lee lost the war by sending his men to their deaths at Gettysberg. Sitting ducks. Any man who had read the Art of War wouldn't have mad such a terrible mistake.

    Should we build a museum for the 1989-92 Buffalo Bills just because they were so great until they became losers?

    Just give it up. If Lee followed those rules he would never had engaged in any battles. Battles he won with inferior numbers, equipment and training.

    You should just give up breathing because without question of all the people on this forum you deserve to be thrown out of a moving train onto a street filled with thumbtacks.

    Did he win the war?

    No.

    Robert E Lee is a ****ing loser, and he should have no place in our history books.

    People should forget he ever lived.

    Lincoln wanted Lee to lead the union army. Lee was hardly a loser

    But at the same time he has much tact and grace as Jack Nicholson's character on "As Good as It Gets".

    You're ignorant on the topic.

    Lee wasn't a supporter of slavery. He went to efforts to help slaves, even before it was evident that the Confederate army needed more troops (which is when he offered them emancipation if they fought alongside his troops)

    Do some research before throwing up more posts that make you look foolish.

    Well the Raiders have 3 Lombardy trophies, so that doesn't really work.

    Robert E Lee = Houston Oilers works better. 2 entities that no longer exist and never won ****!

    Lee fought for the side that wanted slaves, that makes him guilty by association.

    You redneck cousin felchers amuse me when you try to defend one of historys biggest ****ups. I'm surpised you don't worship Benedict Arnold.

    Robert E Lee should be remembered as a lesson of what happens when you try to mobilize an army of southern mouth breathers into real soldiers.

    Those Dixie whistlers didn't stand a chance.

    Just like Romney doesn't stand a chance because his own party doesn't like him.

    Bwahaha. John Kerry 2. GOP version
