    I'll repost this video since not one republican on this board responded to it. Self-Pwnage at its finest.

    Yeah link that!

    Your punditry has hit a new low!

    He really wants to fire all teachers!?

    The problem is teachers today almost can't be fired. Even for being incompetent. So Romney wants there to be more competition between federal education and private education so there can be better teachers and higher pay.

    Congratulations, you got some raises. Somehow I'm thinking that's more Rod Paige than George Bush.

    You should really watch this.

    These numbers go from 1999 to 2005. Deer Park school district starting salary is 45k a year this year. It was a little lower than 35k in 1999.

    Is he gonna run his schools like he does his businesses?

    Anyway, you're going off on a silly tangent. Watch Mr Powell's endorsement and gain some perspective

    The reason that they are not responding is that Mitt is not an even adequate candidate and they realize this. They are anybody but Obama voters, so Mitt's lack of principle is irrelevant. They will vote for anyone the Reps run out there. Can any Reps admit that they would not vote for Michele Bachmann or Rick Perry if they ran?

    He is not going to run any schools and either will Obama, unless he decides to open any reeducation camps where they will teach people to submit to their Socialist ideologies! States have always ran public schools and private enterprise has done the rest.

    Republicans should just take a hiatus from talking for a while.

    I was talking to someone just now about that Hurricane Sandy might have an affect on the election if it does turn into the perfect storm as some are predicting. Consider that the track of the storm has it potentially affecting the Eastern Seaboard as from Virginia to New Hampshire and as far inland as Ohio. Lets say that it is very bad and leaves a swath of destruction in Virginia, and New Hampshire and then brings snows and floods into Ohio just days before the election. I could see that impacting the election in a couple of possible ways. Generally Republicans have been more likely to vote than Democrats so if voters don't go to the polls on 11/6 because they are dealing with the aftermath of Sandy that might hand over Virginia and NH to Romney. On the flip side though since Obama is leading in early votes in Ohio a low voter turnout because of the storm might seal an Obama victory in Ohio.

    Obama sent a storm at the GOP convention too. He uses that fake global warming stuff, and, um... socialism!

    The ones that need stood up to are the Dems (especially the ones who had to be bribed)who rammed the POS Healthcare Legislation down the Nations throats. That act alone popped the Hope and Change balloon for Obama. It was unpopular with the right and left supporters. The mid-terms should have been a wake up call for Mr Beanpole but they weren't.


    Speaking of which... Seems like the buzz is gone surrounding the Obama campaign.

    The storm is supposed to hit early next week, tho i wouldn't mind moving up the date of the election so we can consign rom ryan to the dustbin a bit earlier.

    Repeated attacks from republicans calling out Romney for his flipflops and lies. (Assuming vast majority are from the primary.)

    In Texas for a family service. Sitting with folks while Fox News blares. After a few hours, it seems to me Romney is cruising to a win and Obama will be lucky to get more EVs than McGovern. The American people are obviously waking up and seeing the wisdom of the Con way.

    If that is an exaggeration, it is not much of one. It really is a twisted propaganda channel.

    I caught a few minutes at lunch yesterday and Fox showed a graphic comparing Bush's response time to 9/11 (27 days before Operation Enduring Freedom) to Obama's response time to Benghazi.

    I could not hear the broadcast, but I would loved to know if they were pushing for an invasion of Libya or just really really like numbers and tangents.

    Romney's cronies attack him and expose his lies/deficits. It's really telling that a year ago the GOP hated him and accused him of all the same actions the liberals are accusing him of right now. He's a flip flopper, he's a liar, he boasts a record he doesn't have, Bain is evil, the list goes on. A good watch I would say...
