This has nothing to do with the Republicans... wait.... 
Anyway, if Weiner was a democrat does that lend more credibility to the conspiracy that they (Reps & Dems) are really one party, or does this just make Weiner a goof-ball of his own belonging? Ok then.

Semantics. As you yourself would say if given the opportunity, none here can say for sure one way or another, we're simply parroting what we've heard elsewhere. Anyway....

Nobody can touch Obama. There is no way that any of the candidates that have come out and decided to run would EVER beat him. Too many radical, faith-based platforms that the growing independent population (the ones sick of the party politics bullshit) would ever allow a republican to win.
Newt had the best chance by coming out blazing bashing both sides for their ideas, but of course that was too "radical" for his party and he ended up looking like a joke to both sides he was bashing. I feel as though he could have been one of the best contenders if he had a campaign staff that was ready to actually FIGHT for America. This is the reason Obama won in '08, he tried to take the most NEUTRAL path, because the independent (or extremely moderate conservative/liberals) voters are the groups that win or lose elections usually.
I feel not only will Obama be re-elected, but he will once again have a democratic majority in both the house and senate, and maybe something can actually get done. But, I'm not holding my breath, because even when the Repubs don't have control, they just will threaten to filibuster every legislation they don't like like they did for the first two years of Obama's presidency.

I would like to see Ron Paul get a legitimate shot, but he never will on the Republican ticket. He needs to get the Libertarian ticket so he will at least be on the fucking ballot when it gets time to vote.
He needs a platform that will allow him to express his views, and by going third party, there is no way for people to ignore him after the primaries.

I still haven't seen many convincing arguments with exactly what Obama has done wrong. All I see is people with hurt buttholes whose ideologies weren't shared with the one who was elected.

Said he opposed the patriot act, then voted for it and made affirmative efforts to get it passed against
Said he opposes warantless wiretaps and then voted for them
Said he opposed retroactive immunity for illegal spying on customers and sharing of telecom customer's conversations and so forth, then supported it when it came up for consideration.
Said he opposed the war in Iraq and criticized Bush for not ending it and wasting money on it, and then voted to increase spending on it multipled times.
Said he opposed continuing the war in Iraq as Bush did, and then he, as commander in chief, decided to continue with Bush's timetable and plan.
Spent a huge amount of money and pushed through laws that forced all americans to buy insurance from some insurance carrier.
Supported and pushed through a deal that stripped away GM's assets and dumped them into a new company so the creditors and owners were left with nothing- something that would have been a fraudulent transaction without such support.
Supported multiple corporate bailouts for financial institutions and then bitched about it later.
Claimed his stimulus packages were filled with a substantial number of projects "ready to go" and that his VP would be "Sheriff" and make sure they were spent appropriately, then it was revealed that pretty much none of the projects were ready to go and "Sheriff Joe" did absolutely nothing and is a moron
Chose a VP with a substantial history of escalating the war on drugs and similar credibility on campaign promises as himself
et cet, et cet
Have you really not heard anything against Obama?

I'm sorry, but as an average American citizen who is doing nothing illegal besides buying a couple bags of pot here and there, The Patriot Act is of very little consequence to me. Don't be a fucking sketch ball, and you won't have a problem

See above

How are you going to oppose immunity to people who were told by the government under a previous administration that what they were doing was both necessary and not illegal? I would almost say that would open up a lawsuit against the government.

Are you supposed to cut spending and pull out, leaving a nation in ruins? That sure looks great for America!
Quote:

Except if you were to listen to more than the bullshit being spewed at you, you would know that nobody will be "forced" to do anything. The benefits of the health care law are far beyond anything that could be considered negative. The best option would have been a public option, but of course, Repubs would have NOTHING to do with that.
Quote:

I don't know anything about finance and bankruptcy, but GM employed ~150,000 people in the united states. Would have been awesome to see them laid off due to bankruptcy, no?
Quote:

Because the people who took the bailouts didn't do with it what was expected of them.

The package was full of projects "ready to go," but apparently these projects weren't the ones Republicans all over the country wanted...............................

Good thing the VP doesn't do shit, and since Obama isn't 85 and ready to keel over, Biden will stay not doing shit until he becomes president (which won't happen)
Quote:

I've heard many things against Obama, most are heavily exaggerated and only look at one side of the spectrum. Many of the Bush-era policies you bring up were too deep to just toss aside. The man has his faults, definitely, but in a time where such heavy political divide between parties, how can anything good be passed?

According to the people of their own states, they are all turds, except Johnson. I would believe it's more than fair to assume the same (positive rating) for the excluded Dr. Paul
