I heard no explicit plan for how Romney would change things, but instead just vague generalities and inuendo.
Furthermore, I think Mr. Romney pissed off many Americans who enjoy the Public Broadcasting System and would be extremely dismayed if his plan for public funding of this resource was discontinued. The science and arts that are presented there, are invaluable, educational and politically informative. This cut in government funding would result in a catastrophy of inconceivable proportions and a serious loss to youth and elderly both. Sesame Street and the other programs for educating children as well as shows like NOVA and Masterpiece Theatre are a major asset that should maintained at all cost.

Man alive ! Did you watch the same debate, that I did ?
Did you not see BO go on for five minutes, when he was told he had five seconds ?
Do you really expect Romney to have had all the details worked out, for every plan, in advance ? He won't have that until he kicks out the BO people and has his own crew in. Don't worry, if Romney says he has a plan, he WILL get it done !

Liberal Whining and again lying.... The debate was timed and it was actually the president who stole Romney's time... the president had 5 minutes more speaking time than did Romney.. Now do you think that Romney should make your stupid demands...... DEFEND THE ONE! and not see him for the failure that he is.

If you persist in calling people liers for voicing their opnions, then you have little understanding of the definition of the word. And at no time did Obama interupt Romney during his points af argument. However numerous times, Romney did interupt the president. That is not debating, but bullying in the worst sense of the word.

Not even close. The worst sense of the word "bullying" is beating the crap out of someone. Now I understand why your views are so far off. We live on different planets.

Impeachment starts in Congress remember - and I agree ACA is not perfect but beats the hell out of using the ER for medical Tx and for those of us with pre-existing conditions Mitt's choice is - "tough shit. Next time choose better parents."


Whatever, he passed Healthcare in Mass, so I am sure that he is not as uncaring as the Democratic Spin machine has convinced you he is...

You asked me if I would impeach Romney for cutting special deals for special interests, I pointed out to you that our president has already set that precedent when they pushed through the ACA willing and tossed around taxpayer dollars like candy to children, and you come back with some off the wall comment about Romney... There is no substance to all these democratic talking points, you guys have nothing on Romney that sticks, just wild imagination... that is all, when you really break down his record not only is it stellar, but there has been a lot of good done, for the people of Mass, and for the country in his efforts in the Olympic fiasco, and for his service to the communities that he has lived in.... You guys are failing as people for the first time last night got to see the real Romney and honestly for the life of me I still don't see much in this president that I can respect other than the fact that he is a good father and husband.

and you come off with some conceit to think much less claim that the Obama set the precedent for "pushing through his own agenda and spending money like candy" when you conveniently overlooked the great war of Weapons of Mass Destruction and ramming a war - two wars down the throats of the people all in the name of protecting us from Allah.

So don't jump on your high horse as you have no leg to stand on either and neither does Romney.

Yeah, Romney has done good - creating universal health care in MA did a lot of good only now Romney say's it did no good and we need to dump it. But what Romney has had to do in order to win the nomination is twist his own heart, his own morals and his own soul and march to the tune of the radical right. In Mitt's own words "that isn't good for America."

BlurryEyed, what do you know about what he accomplished for other people as a community organizer and as a state senator ? As usual, you are making statements about something you know nothing about. You really don't know what he did, do you ? You ASSUME because of your obvious prejudices that all he did was get in thick with the Chicago machine. But you know NOTHING about anything else he did. Your prejudices are speaking, not your rational mind.

This is simply not true of Obama. He worked as a community organizer for several years. I am sure you don't consider the job of a social worker (which is really what that was) as being "work." But it is. Obama knows very well what the poor in this country endure.


Ron K. wrote:
What's the big difference between Romney and Obama anyway? They both never worked a day in their lives.


Yes and what did he do as a community organizer and state senator other than embed himself in the Chicago machine and make millions for his friends and supporters... did you think that it started with Solyndra???? Not by a long shot.

Left unstated was the underlying reality that politically connected developers who built the housing would profit handsomely and could be expected to gratefully give millions of dollars in campaign contributions to politicians like Obama who made it all possible.

Chicago thus became the proving ground for Obama's vision, which, according to LISC spokesman Joel Bookman, "really changed the direction of community development in Chicago and ultimately nationally."

It was an irresistible combination of money, politics and idealism that also offered endless opportunities for greed and tragic abuse of the poor.

That made it an ideal tool for uniting the Daley machine with the reform coalition that had elected Harold Washington as the city's first African-American mayor in 1983. (Richard M. Daley, who reinvigorated the machine and became mayor in 1989, was the son of the machine's founder, Richard J. Daley, who died in 1976.)

The key to Obama's vision in Chicago, according to Marilyn Katz, was the city's most famous radical: "Remember, this is the community of Saul Alinsky. And most of the first housing groups were the Alinsky groups who were still banging at the door."

Katz, an influential Chicago public relations executive and longtime Obama friend and political operative, has visited the White House more than two dozen times since 2009.

Unfortunately, your president has created an environment of "winners" vs. "losers", "rich" vs. "poor", "black" vs "white", etc.

Your president also has race-bated (ex: 2007 film), aided in the cover up the killing of a border agent, failed to protect embassies, failed the economy, and failed the citizens of this nation.

We've been on the losing end of his policies. Time to end a losing president's tenure. Just hope it isn't too late to right a nation.

There's another 36 days until the election and "Snake Oil" evaporates within three days, so Romney has to re-apply it with some more crap. Keepon trying.

Hunter Lou,
Maybe if you learned to do research you would know something. Apparently you are not too bright since you believe all the shit put forth by Obama.

Hunter Lou, it sounds to me like someone -- is it George ? -- has got your ignorance pegged. Under Obama, an embassy gets attacked and destroyed. You complain. How much did you complain when George W ignored evidence for weeks and weeks about the coming attacks that occurred on 9/11 ?

Under Obama's watch 4 embassy staffers are murdered, 2 border patrol agents are murdered, and there is zero outcry. The media ignores it; these little "bumps in the road" represent not just dereliction of duty in this White House, but offers a glimpse at the total ineptness and incompetence of this slacker president.

November 6th will represent a defining day in how a nation will finally come back to its sanity. You and the left can then go back to sleep for another 4 years. You've destroyed a nation with your lunacy.

Nonsense. Under W, thousands of people died on 9/11. And in past months his absolute dereliction of duty has become more and more evident. Have you complained about that ? I doubt it. And that's just one incident. Try to be objective and factual, and keep your insolence and rudeness to yourself.

Bush continually demonstrated leadership; he surrounded himself with leaders. He didn't skip 56% of his daily security briefings, unlike Obama. He met weekly with his jobs council; Obama has yet to meet with his.

Obama is weak and has demonstrated that time and again. He's a laughing stock among world leaders; and fooling all of the people some of the time has become a lot harder to accomplish - as is trying to fool all of the people all of the time. The debate has proven that.

Perhaps when narcissism becomes a cherished leadership trait, Obama might become back into vogue.
