The Debates

Why does the right feel so compelled to ever respond to that kind of stuff? The left marginalizes the far right but the right has this need to soften the blow from the far left. Is there a psychological reason behind this? Some no brain-right brain thing?

Fixed and now ribbed for pleasure.
 
How can Biden and Obama rip Romney for not having a budget when they haven't had one for the last 8 years? Irony at its best. The Democrat controlled congress and not once put forth a budget.

You do understand there is a difference between "Obama has not presented a budget" and "Congress has not passed a budget", right?
 
Both sides have their fair share of it.

What have liberals done that your find to be a "fair share" comparable to opening fire on a campaign headquarters? I not denying such things have happened, it's quite possible I have not heard of them.

So, how can Obama rip Romney's budget when 1) Obama doesn't have one and 2) it's not the president's job to make one.

I respond when either side pretends as if its all, or even primarily, on the other side. In the words of their recent hero... What a bunch of malarkey.

you got me good on this one, franklin. I should quote that little message that I have given you too much rep.
 
There does not appear to be much of a debate as to who won Numb.

Then what are we talking about? A guy smiled or laughed too much? Jesus Christ, people. It's really a shame that politics has to reduce itself to such malarkey, but it does.

By the way, did you guys here about some guys that know Obama got prostitutes?
 
By definition, the far right and the far left are on the margins. They can not be marginalized, they have done that to themselves.

I suppose you're not very interested in realizing that made-up definitions, contrived for the purpose of deflecting people from seeing the actual facts of their situation, are worse than useless.

So please attempt to explain how democrats have become worse totalitarian fascists generally than even the republicans, who still have a few oddballs who believe humans are endowed by nature with some human rights. And then try to explain how the current crop of "progressives" who are fanatically dedicated to some ideal of necessary governance imposed by intellectuals who supposedly know it all, are really acting in the interest of the common folks. . . while being in the pay of very moneyed interests.

If you don't think him laughing matter than that's cool. I think he did it so much that it detracted from his message. My opinion is as valid as yours.

It is nonsense when these liberals/fascists/socialists/communists label anyone "far," "extreme," or "radical." I have a good lolz about it.

I'm not sure why you're asking me to defend what I have not claimed, and don't see the connection to what I wrote.
 
Which is unfortunate, but different from not having a proposed budget at all.

Oh I know. I just wanted to push your buttons.

However, Obama's budget is so bad that not even a sinlge democrat would vote for it indicates that Obama is in over his head. You may not want to take a stand that defending that.

It will be interesting to see if Romney can improve on that.
 
Improve on it how? As an attack line? Or as in, can he submit a budget that gets at least 1 republican vote?

One which gets a Republican vote and keeps all the promises he has made, including the 20% tax cut and being revenue-neutral. I honestly don't think it's possible.
 
Obama is in a tough spot. If he doesn't attack he will look the same as the last debate. If you attacks too much he will look desperate epecially in front of the town hall type debate.

Obama will need to have a perfect night tomorrow to win.
