   The Republicans are promising tax cuts for all and slashing the deficits without doing any harm to anybody. Let’s see how many of those promises they keep if they are elected. No one party has a monopoly on broken promises.

   “Instead of cutting it in half, he tripled it.”

   That is *only* off by a factor of six. And a change in sign of the slope.
   Each shuttle mission wound up costing over 10 times more than NASA predicted in the 1970’s.
   Staying with NASA, Hansen’s dead-certain sea level rise predictions near his own office building are already off by a factor of 100. This is cosmology-grade precision.

   All politicians lie. Some are more dangerous liars. They destroy economys, take all the money from the people and send all the young ones off to war.

   Once upon a time the was another black president who believed his own lies, broke his country and killed many thousands of people because he could. He also came from Africa.

   HE was Uganda’s President Ida Amin Dada!

   69% of the people say the country is “seriously on the wrong track.” 48 % trust Romney more on the economy than 44% for Obama. I’ve read comments on dozens of articles and there aren’t many positive comments on Obama. With all the unemployment, food stamps, Obamacare, and on and on, still it’s being said, in the media, that Obama has a slim margin. Something is terribly wrong with all this. Rasmussen has Romney 46% Obama 44%. IF this man can’t be beat, then no election can ever be won, because there is NOTHING there, just a mirage, a composite man who has run the country into the ground and has zero accomplishments which he can talk about. Has there ever been a Prez who lies so blatantly?

   Only about a third of the people say we are on the right track. WHY would they not want to replace the engineer before we derail?

   “A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. ”
   ? Alexis de Tocqueville

   Hopefully he is wrong.

   Why does the CPUSA, in speaking to its own members, urge them to support Obama by citing the very policies and decisions that Obama himself is most proud of?

   The answer is as unavoidable as it is straightforward: the Communist Party regards Barack Obama’s signature achievements and defining principles as consistent with, and conducive to, its own defining goal — namely, the establishment of a socialist workers’ state in America. And of course, as America’s official defenders of the Marxist flame, they certainly know whereof they speak.
