Romney VP

[ShockRef]

Obvoius Obama Tool...

You cän't händle the truth.

Obviously you are out of the country but even more obvious is your out of touch mentality.

I own a small business and deal with Obama's minions every day in one form or another.

They have an incentive to meddle, poke and generally waste valuable time and money (mostly mine) in the name of justifying their existence.

My business you ask?

Why it's a small "go green" Environmental Services company specializing in recycling.

That's right, the same type of company he supposedly supports and promotes for "all the right reasons" is constantly under the finger of his unscrupulous band of Nazi's.

The same J.O.'s who have no sense of direction - only strong armed Chicago-style tactics aimed at instilling intimidation and thinly veiled financial shake downs.

Until you live it, don't pretend you really know and understand the true Modus Operendi.

That is all.

He's not as wealthy as John f-ing Kerry, who also didn't release returns.

You are entitled to your opinion: not your own facts.

Dön't be ä knöb.

Actually, I didn't ask.

I suppose, you are mightly lucky not to be in the reading comprehension business. Not sure you could hack it. What does your post have to do with radical solutions to the deficit, or Paul Ryan being named as Romney's VP?

Also, FYI, in America - where they speak English - you don't capitalize modus operandi.

Count to 10 and try again.

If I really have to explain the connection then it's quite apparent your exposure to the extreme temperatures of the far North have adversely affected your ability to comprehend.

That is all.

I don't think we capitalize fyi, either, Jackass.

I capitalized Jackass because that's what I've determined your proper name will be from now on, Jackass.

You've tried talking down to people before, with limited success. Are you sure you want to continue to be embarrassed? I mean, I realize you have absolutely nothing productive to do as you wait for school to open and your monthly supply of government funded weed to arrive, but you're wading into the deep end without floaties and I suspect it will turn out badly for you, Jackass.

[BenWSU]

This back and forth between you 2 is alot like what's going on in DC - Nothing is getting accomplished and the average American voter is turned off by all the bickering and grandstanding

FYI can be either, but thanks for your concern. In that particular case, I was correct.

You could be clever. You chose to be vulgar and base.

BTW, the only floaties here are the result of your decrepit body's incontinence. I'm saying you frequently poop by accident, because you're old.

@WuDrWu:

You are not alone.

It get's better.

Just kidding.

At least it'll end someday.

Geez this thread took a grim turn.

[Rocky Mountain Shock]

It may seem too radical, but in reality, it's not radical enough. Which is why it would take so long to lead to a balanced budge. I understand that it's hard to do all of this at once as people will freak out about what's going to happen tomorrow, and not see what it does for us 5, 10, 20 years from now. We need drastic measures to keep us from continuing to slide into the abyss (Greece). With where we're currently going, that's where we're headed.

Count me among those who favor Obama, at least at this point, but I am definitely in favor of a balanced budget amendment if done right. By done right, I mean with exceptions for severe economic recessions like the one we just experienced, major military conflicts, or other justifiable reasons for running a temporary deficit. I haven't seen Romney come out in favor of such an amendment, though--does anyone know otherwise?

[1979Shocker]

John Kerry's net worth is around $194 million. I heard Romney has over $250 million.

Also Kerry released 20 years of taxes when he ran for president.

P.S. I guess if you count his wife he has more.

That's basically how the Founding Fathers saw it. Any debt that occurred because of war or other major reasons, was supposed to be paid off within a certain amount of time. Not to be left for the next generation and certainly not to be continued by future generations. I haven't seen an Obama budget that would move towards a balanced budget. Just more and more spending. In order to do what is necessary, we have to bite the bullet now, instead of that bullet hitting us in our collective heads in 20 years or whatever the time frame may be.

I always follow these political debates with moderate interest. I would consider myself a fiscal conservative, as a CPA, who voted for Obama in 08' and is leaning towards Obama in 12'. Every day I hear people who are very passionate about our country spew that borderlines hate because they think they know the answer. Our inability to come together to find a solution and has left me jaded about the system’s ability to effectively work. Supply side economics don't work and have led to the disparity of income in our country. Despite those feelings, I think everyone should try to agree that we have a major spending problem. The taxation issues, in my opinion, are a result of the spending problems.

What gets lost in the shuffle is the fact that our tax rates are the lowest they've been in multiple generations especially at the upper income levels (I'm a CPA myself), so our ability to pay down debt is limited until that is addressed. If you believe the Republicans creed that low taxes equals a booming economy, since the Bush tax cuts our economy should be through the stratosphere. But it's not. Epic policy fail. But I agree, it's more a spending problem, but I think both sides of the ledger need to be addressed.

Agreed, the Founding Fathers were more than clear about that, and until about 100 years ago we were pretty good about paying off debt.

I've been impatiently waiting for Obama to come out in favor of a balanced budget amendment, but I haven't heard anything about Romney. I'm rather surprised about this--it would seem a candidate in favor of it would get A LOT of looks by voters at this point.

[60Shock]

We can talk all we want to about balancing the budget and paying down the debt, but even now we may be close to our ability to even do so.

I have no clue as to the accuracy of the following presentation. Pershaps some of you CPA and accountants, or anyone can further comment on this.

I did forward it to a friend of mine in the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for comment. A week later he came back with the comment, "I have no argument with anything that is presented here within. The overall theme is accurate almost to a fault."

If this has been presented before, I apologize. I searched, but did not find anything similar.
