Romney is worse than Obama in my opinion. The Republicans are not fielding their best candidate but the one who polls well. That is more than enough reason for me to either vote for Obama or a good alternative in the person of a 3rd party candidate. The GOP has no soul.

Obama leads GOP challengers in Ohio

By BYRON TAU |

2/1/12 12:09 PM EST

President Obama leads all four potential GOP challengers in the crucial swing state of Ohio, according to a new survey.

 

Obama leads GOP frontrunner Mitt Romney by seven points in the latest state poll by the Democratic-leaning pollster PPP, besting the former Massachusetts governor 49-42. Rick Santorum trails the president by 6 points, 48 to 42. Obama also beats Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul by by 12 and 10 points, respectively.

 

The president's approval/disapproval numbers in Ohio are an even split, at 48 percent each. Romney is viewed favorably by only 28 percent of Ohio voters. Obama is still underwater among independents, however, at 40 percent approval and 53 percent disapproval.

 

These numbers represent an marked improvement for President Obama since the last time PPP polled the Buckeye state. Obama's approval rating is up 8 points among all voters, and 13 percent among independents independents.

 

The poll comes after a week of intense focus on American manufacturing sector, income and tax code equality and the recovery of the American auto industry — all potentially salient issues in the Rust Belt state.

 

Obama carried Ohio 51-47 in 2008.

 

This is just a small example of the many ways Obama is attempting to mold the country into a Marxist state. He's attempting to "centralize" all aspects of how we should live our lives and be governed, whether it be education, health care, or numerous other aspects relating to freedoms our forefathers fought and died to protect.

 

CS...you USED to call yourself a Libertarian (with a small L). Check out some stuff by Wayne Root, a well-known author, entrepeneur, and self-styled leader in the Libertarian movement. He was allegedly a former classmate of Obama. He has an interesting take on Barry. He'll give you a very concise and basis to believe what I believe and have been saying for years about Obama. Barry is a FUCKING commie. He's not just a "leftie", he's an evil mofo. A wolf in sheep's "clothing". Steve...you and others better wake up before it's too late. I'm serious.

 

HH

 

Forcing catholics to distribute the pill = Marxism?

 

 

 

You must be joking.

As I said before, you really don't have any idea what Marxism really means.

The incompetent GOP candidates aside, there seems to be a glimmer of hope for the US economy and if the economy really picks up in the upcoming month the GOP will lose a main argument against Obama.

Khun Kamui...

 

Wait until u see Newt debate Obama...You'll then get a chance to see how stupid Obama looks and IS. Obama is going to regret scuttling NASA, cuz he'll be looking to escape to that moon colony. 5555555555555

 

HH

 

Do you really think Newt will win the nomination? He seems to be extremely disliked by many rep- and independent voters.

 

Currently it seems that GOP candidates inflict such heavy damages on each other that the Dem are only need the recycle the extremely negative GOP candidate attack ads.

 

 

 

PS: and please don't repeat the empty phrases about marxism e.g.. How about some real substance added to your opinions?

From an outside view it is unbelievable how much bullshit the GOP candidates say during the debates. Is the US electorate that stupid??? It seems that with each election cycle the level of the political discourse is going even lower...

GOP makes Obama look good

By: Roger Simon

January 26, 2012 11:59 PM EST

 

....

 

These debates are making the Obama staffers in Chicago so giddy that after each one they are tearing off their clothes, running through Millennium Park and howling at the moon.

 

And why shouldn’t they? The American people, after being treated to hour upon hour of Republican candidates being allowed to say pretty much whatever they want, are slowly discovering something: Barack Obama doesn’t look that bad any more.

 

An NBC News/Wall Street Journal Poll released Wednesday said that “for the first time in six months, more people approve of the job the president is doing than disapprove.â€

 

Sure, the president’s approval/disapproval figure is only 48/46, but he has achieved that after six months of solid Republican debating. After six months of attack. After six months of being told that the American economy is doomed without a steady Republican hand on the tiller of state.

 

So what else does the poll show? “More people said they believe the economy will get better (37 percent) in the next year rather than worse (17 percent). That’s the highest level in more than a year and a seven-point jump over last month.â€

 

Oh, my. This is not what the Republicans had in mind.

 

The debates were supposed to winnow the field and leave the strongest Republican standing. It is all very Darwinian: the survival of the fittest. (Even though some Republicans don’t believe in evolution, just about all of them believe in survival of the fittest. That’s because they believe they are the fittest.)

 

True, the number of lecterns on the stage has been winnowed from nine to four, but what have the “fittest†Republicans been telling America about their agenda?

 

Well, Thursday night, we had a good, long talk about America’s moon colony. What moon colony? Fair question. America currently lacks a moon colony. But Newt Gingrich would like a moon colony, and it won’t even cost a lot if we offer a “prize†to people to build one. As he once again reminded America, “Lindberg flew to Paris for a $25,000 prize.â€

 

 

 

Newt says we have to have a moon colony because, if we don’t, the Chinese will have a moon colony and if that happens, well, it will be bad.

 

But Mitt Romney said a moon colony could cost a $1 trillion. So how big would the prize have to be to get people to compete for building the moon colony? More than $1 trillion, I would guess. And where would the U.S. government get that kind of money? We would have to borrow it from the Chinese. Who could just hold onto it and build their own moon colony.

 

Do you see now why Obama is doing better in the polls?

 

Not that we are supposed to spend our time worrying about the substance of these debates. That is for professional fact-checkers. (Don’t ask me who fact-checks the fact-checkers. You don’t want to know.)

 

Instead, the media decide who wins and who loses, who gets made and who gets broken. Looking for the little things help me decide.

 

Which is why my notes begin: “National Anthem. All put hands on hearts. Santorum and Mitt sing. Newt and Ron Paul don’t. Why?â€

 

I don’t know. I am waiting for a fact-checker to tell me.

 

Further notes: “Newt praises Callista for playing French horn. Have words ‘French horn’ ever been spoken at political debate before? Unlikely, but not impossible. Especially if debate were in France.â€

 

“When asked by Santorum if people in Massachusetts must buy health care, Mitt replies: ‘First of all, it’s not worth getting angry about.’ Presidency pays only $400,000 a year. So why would Romney get emotional about it?â€

 

“Debate supposed to be Newt’s best opportunity to win Florida, but at one point he says, ‘Governor Romney is exactly right’ and at another he says, ‘I agree with Governor Romney.’ Newt appears to be lacking in mindless aggression. This is no way to win a debate.â€

 

The debate wandered back and forth and finally ended up with CNN moderator Wolf Blitzer asking the candidates: “Why are you the one person on this stage most likely to beat Barack Obama?â€

 

My notes say that Ron Paul cited his “freedom message,†that Santorum said he could win Reagan Democrats, and that Romney said America needs “dramatic, fundamental, extraordinary†change.

 

Newt, I note, said, “This is a big choice election.â€

 

But he didn’t say the choice was standing on the stage.

Why Private as opposed to Public some may ask, well to be brutally honest I do not trust the Police in Thailand, corruption operates at all levels in Thailand and the BiB are not immune to turning a blind eye for Tea Money or if influenced by people of an assumed higher standing in Thai society. I am a lone farang prosecuting my soon to be ex who has relatives holding both Retired and Current high ranking government positions, I would have had a snowball in hells chance if I went the public prosecution route at least some chance of justice going private.

 

Aha, I was wondering how a Farang could sue a member of an obviously upper class family.

 

 

It's all rather good fun actually!

 

As long as you win...

Visual Joke

 

 

 

With almost 2 out of 3 bankruptcies tied to health costs, I think healthcare as an issue is of paramount importance.

Newt on Heathcare: http://www.newt.org/...ions/healthcare

 

 

 

That's the issue no one can understand outside the USA. In no other industrial country people are forced into bankruptcy because they or a member of the family get seriously ill. I wonder how many billions of USD are being wasted, burnt, because families have to reduce or stop spending (consumption, education expenses, e.g.), because they have to pay extreme premiums for health care.

The economical damage for the US society must be immense.

I guess the answer to the question of whether Newt's "indiscretion's" would hurt his presidential campaign is no.

 

A psychologist from Fox News' "Medical A-Team" (no joke) comes to the conclusion that Gingrich's adultery makes him a good president.

Just saw the "Scorpion King 3". Downloaded via torrent. Release date Jan 17 _2012_.

I guess its the worst movie I saw in 2011. To call it a B Movie would be too much of a compliment.

 

I guess the budget was so low that they had to rent the costumes from several movies. In the movie you see warriors with Roman armor, Thai soldiers with elephants, Japanese Ninjas, Mongolians, Phrygians (they looked like Smurfs with golden caps, the so called Phrygian cap) and Beduines. Regardless they seemed to have had only money for around 50 extras...

The props looked like being made from cardboard.

The script is unbelievable bad.

 

It was filmed in Thailand, I guess mostly in Ayutayya.

So by your logic, Obama is really a Republican in disguise.

 

 

From a European view he is. In Europe he would be right of Angela Merkel for example.

 

 

 

>> he sent MORE TROOPS to Afghanistan!!!

.... the war in Afghanistan is justified. Terrorists murdered 3,000 on 9/11...

 

55555555555555555555555555555555555555

 

Justified based on the "terrorist" attack?

 

The "terrorist" attack was carried out or at least sanctioned by the US gov, IMO.

 

Just remember Bldg. 7...fell down on its own...never hit by a plane...Google the many sources on the internet, like Truth about 9/11, architects and engineers 9/11, etc.

According to the Republicans, Obama is a leftist and communist. But.... their candidate seems to be left of Obama. Does that mean the Republican party are commies?

 

The party leader that seems to stand for family values is Obama with Newt at the end of the pack.

 

As a GOP candidate you can f@ck any women you want, married or not - as long as you pretend to be a conservative Christian.

 

As the current GOP candidates show, it not about substance at all, just posture and saying what the conservative audience wants to hear.

 

 

 

Mixed feelings about the buidling of the pipeline. It will create jobs, it may very well be needed. I do think we should be looking to ween ourselves off fossil fuels. One of the big problems I have with the Republican party is that they are in the pocket of big oil and have want to increaese our dependence on oil and pay lip service to alternate energy.

 

The USA are neglecting a major future market! Instead of pumping millions into research and giving tax breaks for clean energy they still give tax breaks to big oil and ignore all warning signs in regard to Global Warming, e.g. . Another field were they are shoveling their own grave.

 

PS: China is pumping billions into research and production of sun collectors e.g.. At the moment they are destroying German sun collector companies by slashing prices by half or more...

On the TV news they claimed Jobs took acid and even went to an ashram.

 

Surprising the Conservatives are claiming him as one of their own.

 

 

I just read his biography.

Before he founded the company he was a real hippie. He traveled to India in search for a guru and he did a lot of meditation (Zen). He went barefoot most of the time. He was a strict vegetarian and in his early years he had phases when he almost only ate fruit. Because of this he thought that he his body wouldn't become smelly. After he founded the company had to be frequently reminded to take a shower at least once a week...

 

When he and Steve Wozniak earned their first money (Steve acquired the contract, Wozniak did the work) Jobs defrauded Wozniak, by not telling him the full amount earned and by not paying him the 50% they had agreed upon. Wozniak learnt about this only decades later.

 

I guess what made him special was his extreme personality, his extremely independent mind, his constant challenge of rules (society, how to run a business, how things are getting done, e.g.) mixed with a really good education and a good upbringing by simple, but strong and caring parents. And very important: this was mixed with the Zeitgeist of the Hippie movement which wanted to change the world. But he didn't want to change the world with free sex or spiritual awaking, but through technology.

 

In regard to his personality: he seemed to have some severe emotional deficits - he must have been a complete asshole in his early company years. He frequently tried and succeeded to destroy people working for him by abusing them verbally. At 25 he was already a multi millionaire, nevertheless he refused contact to his first daughter, born to his former girl friend. Even later when was even more rich his daughter had to borrow money from a friend of Steve for to pay for college.

 

Steve was everything the conservatives hated and hate, except that he was one of the most successful entrepreneurs of the 20th century and lived the American dream to the fullest.

Worse that GWB by a long shot, even worse than Carter. He is devisive, indecisive, and incompetent. Even the WASHINGTON POST gave him 4 Pinochio's for his claim at billionaires pay only 1% of their income in federal taxes. (Graciously, it didn't come right out and say he's a liar. Just that he's pulling shit out of the air for political purposes.) He really needs to go.

 

HH

 

 

I am constantly surprised to see Obama painted as that bad. I mean GWB gave the chicken-hawks control over the military and to the major companies control over the government. He was in power when the US economy imploded and the USA went to two wars which are being lost and waste of billions of tax payers money. While Obama is pulling out of Afghanistan as well as out of Iraq, got Bin Laden killed and got Libya solved without any US solider being killed.

In regard to the economy Obama is in fact weak and he doesn't seem to be clever/tough enough to run the complex political machine in Washington.

But actually he didn't make it really worse, he just kept on doing what GWB did before. The rich are getting richer and the rest is getting poorer. That is how it is since 2-3 decades in the USA.

 

Anyway more and more the world sees that the US political system is corrupt to its core and completely dysfunctional. The politicians - led by the corps, directly or through K-street, think tanks and astro turf groups - are neither interested in the good of the country nor in the welfare of the people (like declaring Pizza as vegetable for to keep certain companies in business, while feeding junk food to the kids at school).

 

Seeing all the dopes on the GOP side who want to become president I wonder how you can believe that they could do any better. Most of them seem to lack basic knowledge, some of them have a terrible political and personal past, some promote crazy right wing talking points, which are so stupid that the world media outside the US just need to quote them to have the people rolling laughing on the floor.

 

Until now none of the GOP candidates went ahead because of his qualities, but because one candidate after another imploded.

In the country of the blind the one-eyed man is king. Soon the (still) most powerful country of the world will be ruled by a handicapped president. I couldn't happen at a worse time.

Jimmy Carter never cheated on his wife and we had 7 percent unemployment, 18 percent inflation, Bill Clinton cheated on his wife every chance he could get and we had only 4 percent unemployment, 1 percent inflation and a balanced budget. Herman Cain: Because when presidents get laid, you get paid.

 

Following this logic the blow job Clinton received was worth billions of US$ for the common Americans. When GWB took office - a man who probably even did not have sex with his wife - everything went down.

 

The difference between the Dems and GOP: The GOP tried to put Clinton out of office for one proven blow job with an intern. McCain did want to become president with three known cases of sexual harassment and an extramarital affair which lasted for several years. Now the GOP has the problem that their candidates are being measured by the GOP's forcefully promoted moral standards when they tried to impeach Clinton: being faithful to your wife 100%. This of course might/should eliminate McCain as well as Newt Gingrich.

 

I guess the GOP never expected that their moral standards would become an Boomerang to their own candidates.

Hehe, as if the Birthers, Fox and friends, et al, would not have used this issue to destroy Obama's presidency from the beginning. The Internet can't be suppressed as the US fringe groups show daily...

 

I guess you also will find websites claiming that Obama is infact an alien from outer space, as well that he is KGB sleeper, as well that he is a Muslim terrorist. - In addition to all the stories that he is born in Kenya, a secret Muslim, a radical Christian, a socialist, a communist and a Nazi, a dictator, an enemy of the USA. Did I forget something?

 

 

Fair enough, now lets see Der Spiegel do an even handed review of the Democratic Party. Something tells me they won't.

 

 

 

From an European perspective, the Dems might do bad politics, but they seem to be far less crazy than the current field of GOP candidates. Or could you provide equally crazy quotes and information on leading Dem pols from the past 3-4 weeks?

 

 

Maybe Sarah will run?

Foreign view on the GOP candidates:

 

A Club of Liars, Demagogues and Ignoramuses

A Commentary by Marc Pitzke

 

The US Republican race is dominated by ignorance, lies and scandals. The current crop of candidates have shown such a basic lack of knowledge that they make George W. Bush look like Einstein. The Grand Old Party is ruining the entire country's reputation.

 

Africa is a country. In Libya, the Taliban reigns. Muslims are terrorists; most immigrants are criminal; all Occupy protesters are dirty. And women who feel sexually harassed -- well, they shouldn't make such a big deal about it.

 

Welcome to the wonderful world of the US Republicans. Or rather, to the twisted world of what they call their presidential campaigns. For months now, they've been traipsing around the country with their traveling circus, from one debate to the next, one scandal to another, putting themselves forward for what's still the most powerful job in the world.

 

As it turns out, there are no limits to how far they will stoop.

 

It's true that on the road to the White House all sorts of things can happen, and usually do. No campaign can avoid its share of slip-ups, blunders and embarrassments. Yet this time around, it's just not that funny anymore. In fact, it's utterly horrifying.

 

It's horrifying because these eight so-called, would-be candidates are eagerly ruining not only their own reputations and that of their party, the party of Lincoln lore. Worse: They're ruining the reputation of the United States.

 

'Freakshow'

 

They lie. They cheat. They exaggerate. They bluster. They say one idiotic, ignorant, outrageous thing after another. They've shown such stark lack of knowledge -- political, economic, geographic, historical -- that they make George W. Bush look like Einstein and even cause their fellow Republicans to cringe.

 

"When did the GOP lose touch with reality?" wonders Bush's former speechwriter David Frum in New York Magazine. In the New York Times, Kenneth Duberstein, Ronald Reagan's former chief-of-staff, called this campaign season a "reality show," while Wall Street Journal columnist and former Reagan confidante Peggy Noonan even spoke of a "freakshow."

 

That may be the most appropriate description.

 

Tough times demand tough and smart minds. But all these dopes have to offer are ramblings that insult the intelligence of all Americans -- no matter if they are Democrats, Republicans or neither of the above. Yet just like any freakshow, this one would be unthinkable without a stage (in this case, the media, strangling itself with all its misunderstood "political correctness" and "objectivity") and an audience (the party base, which this year seems to have suffered a political lobotomy).

 

Factually Challenged

 

And so the farce continues. The more mind-boggling its incarnations, the happier the US media are to cheer first one clown and then the next, elevating and then eliminating "frontrunners" in reliable news cycles of about 45 days.

 

Take Herman Cain, "businessman." He sat out the first wave of sexual harassment claims against him by offering a peculiar argument: Most ladies he had encountered in his life, he said, had not complained.

 

In the most recent twist, a woman accused Cain of having carried on a 13-year affair with her. That, too, he tried to casually wave off, but now, under pressure, he says he wants to "reassess" his campaign.

 

If Cain indeed drops out, the campaign would lose its biggest caricature: He has been the most factually challenged of all these jesters.

 

As CEO of the "Godfather's" pizza chain, Cain killed jobs -- but now poses as the job-creator-in-chief. Meanwhile, he seems to lack basic economic know-how, let alone a rudimentary grasp of politics or geography. Libya confounds him. He does not believe that China is a nuclear power. And all other, slightly more complicated questions get a stock answer: "Nine-nine-nine!" Remember? That's Cain's tax reduction plan that would actually raise taxes for 84 percent of Americans.

 

Has any of that disrupted Cain's popularity in the media or with his fan base? Far from it. Since Oct. 1, he has collected more than $9 million in campaign donations. Enough to plow through another onslaught of denouements.

 

No Shortage of Chutzpah

 

Then there's Newt Gingrich, the current favorite. He's a political dinosaur, dishonored and discredited. Or so we thought. Yet just because he studied history and speaks in more complex sentences than his rivals, the US media now reflexively hails him as a "Man of Ideas" (The Washington Post) -- even though most of these ideas are lousy if not downright offensive, such as firing unionized school janitors, so poor children could do their jobs.

 

Pompous and blustering, Gingrich gets away with this humdinger as well as with selling himself as a Washington outsider -- despite having made millions of dollars as a lobbyist in Washington. At least the man's got chutzpah.

 

The hypocrisy doesn't end here. Gingrich claims moral authority on issues such as the "sanctity of marriage," yet he's been divorced twice. He sprang the divorce on his first wife while she was sick with cancer. (His supporters' excuse: It's been 31 years, and she's still alive.) He cheated on his second wife just as he was pressing ahead with Bill Clinton's impeachment during the Monica Lewinsky affair, unaware of the irony. The woman he cheated with, by the way, was one of his House aides 23 years his junior -- and is now his perpetually smiling third wife.

 

Americans have a short memory. They forget, too, that Gingrich was driven out of Congress in disgrace, the first speaker of the house to be disciplined for ethical wrongdoing. Or that he consistently flirts with racism when he speaks of Barack Obama. Or that he enjoyed a $500,000 credit line at Tiffany's just as his campaign was financially in the toilet and he ranted about the national debt. Chutzpah, indeed.

 

Yet the US media rewards him with a daily kowtow. And the Republicans reward him too, by having put him on top in the latest polls. Mr. Hypocrisy, the bearer of his party's hope.

 

"I think he's doing well just because he's thinking," former President Clinton told the conservative online magazine NewsMax. "People are hungry for ideas that make some sense." Sense? Apparently it's not just the Republicans who have lost their minds here.

 

The Eternal Runner-Up

 

And what about the other candidates? Rick Perry's blunders are legendary. His "oops" moment in South Carolina. His frequently slurred speech, as if he was drunk. His TV commercials putting words in Obama's mouth that he didn't say (such as, "Americans are 'lazy'"). His preposterous claim that as governor of Texas he created 1 million jobs, when the total was really just about 100,000. But what's one digit? Elsewhere, Perry would have long ago been disqualified. But not here in the US.

 

Meanwhile, Michele Bachmann has fallen off the wagon, although she's still tolerated as if she's a serious contender. Ron Paul's fan club gets the more excited, the more puzzling his comments get. Jon Huntsman, the only one who occasionally makes some sort of sense, has been relegated to the poll doldrums ever since he showed sympathy for the Occupy Wall Street demonstrators.

 

Which leaves Mitt Romney, the eternal flip-flopper and runner-up, who by now is almost guaranteed to clinch the nomination, even though no one in his party seems to like or want him. He stiffly delivers his talking points, which may or may not contradict his previous positions. After all, he's been practicing this since 2008, when he failed to snag the nomination from John McCain. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

 

As an investor, Romney once raked in millions and, like Cain, killed jobs along the way. So now he says he's the economy's savior. To prove that, he has presented an economic plan that the usually quite conservative business magazine Forbes has labeled "dangerous," asking incredulously, "About Mitt Romney, the Republicans can't be serious." Apparently they're not, but he is, running TV spots against Obama already, teeming with falsehoods.

 

Good for Ratings

 

What a nice club that is. A club of liars, cheaters, adulterers, exaggerators, hypocrites and ignoramuses. "A starting point for a chronicle of American decline," was how David Remnick, the editor of the New Yorker, described the current Republican race.

 

The Tea Party would take issue with that assessment. They cheer the loudest for the worst, only to see them fail, as expected, one by one. Which goes to show that this "movement," sponsored by Fox News, has never been interested in the actual business of governing or in the intelligence and intellect that requires. They are only interested in marketing themselves, for ratings and dollars.

 

So the US elections are a reality show after all, a pseudo-political counterpart to the Paris Hiltons, Kim Kardashians and all the American Idol and X Factor contestants littering today's TV. The cruder, the dumber, the more bizarre and outlandish -- the more lucrative. Especially for Fox News, about which the Fairleigh Dickinson University found out that its viewers are far less informed than people who don't watch TV news at all.

 

Maybe that's the solution: Just ignore it all, until election day. Good luck with that -- this docudrama with its soap-opera twists is way too enthralling. The latest rumor du jour involves a certain candidate who long ago seemed to have disappeared from the radar. Now she may be back, or so it is said, to bring order into this chaos. Never mind that her name is synonymous with chaos: Sarah Palin.

Arapahoe Sheriff Patrick J. Sullivan Jr. has. Sullivan, a nationally renowned law enforcement leader, was arrested on drug charges and is now being detained in the Denver area jail that bears his name.

 

Sullivan, who in 2001 was named the National Sheriff Association's "Sheriff of the Year," was arrested on suspicion of trafficking methamphetamines.

 

Local news station CBS4 began an investigation of Sullivan last month on a tip that he had agreed to meet a male informant, providing drugs in exchange for sex.
