For Guy. Since there is no justification for cutting taxes during wartime nor to the extremely wealthy for 10 years. claiming job creation when they did not create anything but a bigger bank account doesnt count. | |

Mr DeWoody, Guy et al. What are your honest and well thought out solutions to the problem ? Well, to be honest, I believe we've already gone over the cliff. A few years ago, I did the math and showed how we could have fixed it then. A few years ago, I was screaming, "let them fail!" A few years ago, we did budgets. To be honest, I'm preparing for a "new norm." Who do I blame? I don't blame anyone in D.C. I blame the voters. I blame short-term thinking inflamed by the catalysts on the ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, Comedy Central, and BET news programs. We are now inflating the dollar at a steady rate. I know what that's doing. Do you? The juggling act will be to make sure everyone is upset equally. This is a pretty close statement on how the "new norm" is going to pan out. The problem with that statement is the "poor" are going to have less just as much as the "rich" are going to have less. P.S. Don't hate me because I'm beautiful. | |

The problem with that statement is the "poor" are going to have less just as much as the "rich" are going to have less. That I agree with. To get America out of this mess everybody will have to hurt. The problem is will the politicians have the gumption to admit that there will be short term suffering for the long term good. Or will they sit on their hands until total collapse forces them to act. If they take the second approach it could be very messy indeed. Particularly when there is nearly a million battle hardened, unemployed and resentful veterans in the country. EDIT Who do I blame? I don't blame anyone in D.C. I blame the voters. I blame short-term thinking inflamed by the catalysts on the ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, Comedy Central, and BET news programs. Do you admit the point that the politicians in DC have been "influenced" by a constant stream of well funded lobbyists from the financial sector and other areas and that this is one of the main reasons no action has so far been taken ? T.A. | |

Do you admit the point that the politicians in DC have been "influenced" by a constant stream of well funded lobbyists from the financial sector and other areas (...is an understatement...) and that this is one of the main reasons no action has so far been taken ? Another way of asking that very same question is, "Do you believe there is corruption in DC?" Do you really need to see me answer that question? ok. YES. Now, which side is more subject to corruption is a subject of debate. But I believe it'll serve no purpose to bother trying to agree on anything there because some people in here look at the exact same thing, but describe completed opposite things. I believe the first step to recovery (if a recovery is still possible) is to do a budget in accordance with the law. <---- I'm being very gentle on how I word that statement because I don't want to offend any Obama supporters in here. Romney has alluded to the fact that we need to do a budget, but hasn't outright stated it. I believe that'll be one of the first things he demands from congress. That'll be a start in the right direction. (Now, if that's not reaching out and being civil to the folks who call me names and put down everything I say in here, I don't know what is.) | |

Watching today's debate it is clear that Mitt wants to install puppet governments in the mid east. | |

With only 3 days to go till the election, Romney still seems "policy challenged". He does however appear to say whatever his audience at the time wants to hear. I doubt that even his closest confidantes have any idea what he would actually do if elected. | |

If "Lobbying" on the Congress/Senate was made illegal, what would be the effects - Would it be a + or - ? | |

If "Lobbying" on the Congress/Senate was made illegal, what would be the effects - Would it be a + or - ? WHAT???? You want truth in politics??????????? Not possible. Too much money in too deep pockets to go around. It gores too many oxen to pass....... The only hope we have is the obscure passage of a bill in the senate and house that says, among other things....... Is that no member of the house or senate should be governed by laws aside from those that they pass upon their constituents. It won't walk. Because it also calls for the dissilution of any and all 'special' trust funds and requires our politicians to toss their lot into the SS fund with the rest of us. Should, but shall never happen. As long as the politicians govern their own fate rather than the taxpayers.........it just ain't gonna happen. Duh, does ANYBODY see something wrong with this process?? ____________ ****** "Ask not, what your kitty can do for you. Ask what you can do for your kitty." As it is kitten, so shall it be done. | |

If "Lobbying" on the Congress/Senate was made illegal, what would be the effects - Would it be a + or - ? How will you enforce it. Shoot on sight anyone who writes a letter to their congress person? ____________ | |

If "Lobbying" on the Congress/Senate was made illegal, what would be the effects - Would it be a + or - ? It was a sensible question asked that didn't deserve sarcasm in return. So to clarify, gun & oil lobbyists for example. ____________ | |

If "Lobbying" on the Congress/Senate was made illegal, what would be the effects - Would it be a + or - ? If you had said paid lobbyist ... but does that prohibit a corporation from paying a secretary to type a letter? The devil is in the details ... I'm simply saying the idea is half baked. Put it back into the oven and bake until done. It may be that a prohibition on legislators from voting on any measure they accepted a campaign contribution from a lobbyist might be a better option. ____________ | |

The polls still predict Obama, but by a slim margin. Depends upon the % turnout. | |

Romney, if elected, will attempt to save America by discriminating against stupidity. But he will fail because of Harry Reid vowing to make him a one-term president and the main-stream media continuing to attack him with lies. | |

Curious, can you site one of these "lies" the media has told us about Romney? ____________ -Dave #2 | |

Romney, if elected, will attempt to save America by discriminating against stupidity..... So he's going to intern or otherwise dispose of all the Tea Party members ?? (That point alone might make him worth voting for afterall) T.A. | |

Just as much as you can site some "truths" the media has told about Obama. | |
