Presidential Debate Thread - Obama vs. Romney (2 Viewers)

[GoBirds]

I love when Obama pretends he hasn't been President for the last 4 years.

That was just the warm up, things will take off this 4 years.

They should make a thread here: Guys who want you to like them, but do everything to make you dislike them, 1. Mitt Romney

Because you really want to like Romney.

 

[Smack Tripper]

Mitt walking into a left hook talking about his role in private sector jobs...

 

[HellToupee]

$250,000 is not wealthy

I'm pretty sure this is the next Romney bumper sticker.

you try living in MA with college & high school tuitions + a mortgage etc

No ####. That's like one evening at the country club for Mitt.

 

[Plorfu]

The annual cost of obama's current and looming debt burden amounts to $4,000 a year in higher taxes on the middle class.

Is this true?

You question BoneYardDog?

 

[honky kong]

Mitt was so much better the first time around. Tonight he isn't making much sense. Obama is more animated, and so far is the clear winner IMO.

I'm sure Obama will be happy to know he has your vote... until the next debate.

 

[CrossEyed]

Basic philosophical difference. Obama thinks the economy grows from government distributing money to individuals. Romney thinks it grows by businesses having more money to hire. It really comes down to that.

 

[drummer]

Obama: Having the wealthy paying more is a "moral obligation to screw the next generation.

But it won't effect you anyway.

 

[BoneYardDog]

Obama doesn't have a clue what grows the economy.

 

[Ursa M]

The average guy pulling down $50,000 will be ecstatic all his stocks will be taxed at zero.

just stop.

Why? Do you think he'll be pissed? Or do you think your hero is blowing smoke out his rear?

[GoBirds]

Obama is much more engaged tonight

Did you think he might show up in a coma?

 

[johnnycakes]

The look on Mitt's face right now is priceless. "You f'n ##########...."

 

[BoneYardDog]

Obama hates small business. He punishes success. Worse, he demonizes it. We deserve better.

I'm not going back to snow. Just the turbockin of that makes me shiver.

 

[CrossEyed]

Another Big Bird reference.

 

[Slapdash]

Still no answer from Romney about why his math doesn't work out. Do that voodoo!

 

[Thunderlips]

$250,000 is not wealthy

Only 2%+- make that or more?.....Yeah...that's wealthy.

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Stop YELLING!

And San Diego was up 24-0 at halftime last night. Not that I agree with you, BTW.

Gee, if only we had 100 years of history to test this hypothesis.

 

[snowmonkey501]

I love when Obama pretends he hasn't been President for the last 4 years.

 

[Smack Tripper]

Mitt looks a bit frazzled here.

I hope we get some 47 percent talk

Wow, huge points on the "sketchy deal" talk!

 

[MaxThreshold]

Mitt was so much better the first time around. Tonight he isn't making much sense. Obama is more animated, and so far is the clear winner IMO.

Negative, Tim. No clear winner yet at all.

 

[BoneYardDog]

Romney is making a strong case this does not HAVE to be the new normal and we deserve better.

 

[drummer]

Obama hates small business. He punishes success. Worse, he demonizes it. We deserve better.

Jim11 is already in da house.

 

[jonessed]

Obama is rambling again. He should have stopped a minute ago. He destroyed what was originally a decent speech.

 

[badmojo1006]

Does Romney ever wipe that smug smile off his face?

 

[Black Sunshine]

Move

 

[BoneYardDog]

Today, there are 3.5 unemployed persons per job opening

 

[Smack Tripper]

Mitt was so much better the first time around. Tonight he isn't making much sense. Obama is more animated, and so far is the clear winner IMO.

Negative, Tim. No clear winner yet at all.

wow if you're saying that max, that means O is running away with it!

 

[RBM]

Is this idiot really talking about adding to the deficit?

 

[Slapdash]

$250,000 is not wealthy

Our savings are in 401ks you tool.

Really? ALL of your savings?

No wonder y'all vote for the Rs.

 

[ang12]

Because the middle class makes so much from capital gains. What a relief mitt

Pensions.

Retirement accounts have capital gains?? Last I checked if it was a Pre Tax Retirment account's your taxed on the whole amount when you do the withdrawal?

Public pension funds are one of the largest private equity investor classes.

 

[CrossEyed]

Romney with the left hook.

 

[MaxThreshold]

Obama is

Yeah, not really. Talking nonsense more loudly doesn't mean you're winning.

 

[BoneYardDog]

Pool report says there was an "audible gasp" in the hall, perhaps not picked up on TV, when Romney told Obama "you'll get your chance."

 

[drummer]

Mitt talking real plan.

 

[snowmonkey501]

Still no answer from Romney about why his math doesn't work out. Do that voodoo!

when the economy grows revenues into the government increase. its not a zero sum gain.

 

[timschochet]

He doesn't have my vote. But I think he's winning tonight.

That was you pulling down your pants.

Romney recited O's accomplishments haha

 

[BoneYardDog]

Math. Not our president's best ally.

 

[Smack Tripper]

Someone cut his mike, jesus

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Obama is

Comes across as desperation.Mitt....shut up when the moderator breaks in.

 

[jdelsas]

I think it's funny when the President mentions Romney's spending plan, when they spent out their ### in the past 4 years, and was their basis for dealing with all of the economy's current problems.

I'm not sure how you jump to that conclusion, but if lets you sleep at night then go with it.
