Subscribe to RSSHerman Cain responded to a question from NBC News in Michigan today about whether he has plans to drop out of the presidential race. Cain said, "9-9-9. 9-9-9. We're doing fine."
HILLSDALE, MI -- Herman Cain brushed off a question about whether he plans to drop out of the race for the GOP presidential nomination, returning to a familiar refrain: his "9-9-9" tax plan.
Ahead of a foreign policy speech planned this evening in Michigan, Cain dodged a question about whether he plans to abandon his presidential ambitions after having told staff this morning that he would spend the next two days reassessing his campaign.
"9-9-9. 9-9-9. We're doing fine," Cain told NBC News upon leaving his hotel at Hillsdale College for his speech on campus tonight.
Cain's campaign has downplayed the reassessment, framing it as a routine examination of the campaign's trajectory.
"Mr. Cain told staff simply that, just as every time significant events occur, a reassessment is prudent," deputy campaign manager Linda Hansen said this afternoon. "A good businessman looks at the entire landscape before making decisions. He is, and has been, committed to promoting the issues and solutions that will make this nation stronger. Nothing about that has changed."

Hermie would be better off calling 9-1-1...
Wouldn't it be more prudent to reassess your MARRIAGE ya freak?
Didn't we have our fill of turkey last week?
Have you noticed the 'FAMILY VALUES' party isn't singing the same tune these days? They booooo a gay soldier, cheer the death penalty - innocent or not, and have claimed Scrooge as their leader.
And today Ms. Bachmann is thrilled that everything is going her way... What a country!
There are days I have to *pinch* myself to remind me I'm not in the land of 'OZ' anymore...
In all my years of following politics, I can't remember anything this insane!
Damn! Now I hafta have a third martini to forget the other two celebratory ones.
Geez, can the press never get anything right?
He didn't say 9-9-9, he said Nein, Nein, Nein!
He would be a great president and go down in history as the only one to run his office completely by rhyme with no need for reason. Just like Dr. Seuss. I see a large Baptist congregation under his able control after a successful 27 year presidency? What? only 8? Aahh, doesnt 9-9-9 = 27? Oh, that's right it equals negative 9. My bad!
;o)
Stirreed not shaken of course...?
All of the GOP/TP candidates have absolutely no 'self-awareness'.....they would never face the reality that they are not qualified to run for, let alone be President!
The voices in their heads have drowned out all reasonableness.....
I wonder if the GOP field prefers Prozac or xanex?
1) I think his wife should be doing the reassessing now.
2) turkey has substance. I think Cain is more about plumage. Cain is far more peacock than turkey.
I wonder if the GOP field prefers Prozac or xanex?
@Feisty
Now if Willard can regroup and have strategy session with Socrates followed by a final meeting with Ben, I'll have a fourth!
arrrgggg ... stupid computer!!! Sorry everyone.
To Republicans: There's an old saying: "Be careful what you wish for"
You had just about gotten rid of Herman Cain, whom you know you're NOT going to allow to get anywhere near the White House, when some darn fools started defending Cain's indefensible actions which made Cain's ears spring up.
Now you've done it, here he is, Herman Cain, AGAIN.
Heaven only knows how Republicans will get rid of Herman Cain before the Primary.
Sorry for the double post. My puter musta had a hiccup.
he must of called her ..and offered her pizza for life
Ben was the brains of the operation...
Willard? eh.. not so much! ;o)
Cheers!
Is it safe to try a single post here? Newsvine must be tired of Herman.
Dear Hermie,
Please don't drop out of the race. It's too much fun with you in it.
If elected, would he be the "Fondler-in-Chief" or the "Thirty Minutes or less -Chief" or the "Buy one get a 12 incher -in-Chief or the . . . you know I could go on and on ...
Spermin Herman - now it's gonna be up to his wife to decide when enough is enough. Maybe that's what the nine chatter is.
This man makes Slick Willie look like a priest. Oh, well, maybe that isn't a good comparison. But you get the idea.
Looks like the Koch Caine Train has become derailed LMAO!
and the freak show continues. Hate to admit it, but i'm gonna miss it when its all over. Yes, the day will come when the Rethugs will have to bring forth one to fall on their sword.
9-9-9.9-9-9 he's doing fine but I say, "The rents already to damn high!"
Herman (the devil) Cain has just turned 666 on it's head.
Lucky he's not yelling 9-9-9 in the UK as that's their 9-1-1. Perhaps the looney wagon would show up and haul him away.
You know he's in trouble when Fox disowns him!! I guess their blacks weren't better after all!!!
And with these many ladies coming forth ... he's not a true conservative anyway!
You people, especially you liberals, must stop misquoting Cain. He didn't say "nine-nine-nine." He said "nein-nein-nein" - "I didn't have tons of attempted forced and/or premarital sex with a gazillion other women, no matter what proof they have."
This guy is truly an idiot. SMH
The pizza delivery boy... "Here's your pizza and [zzzzzzzzzip] here's your pepperoni".
Were you not around during Clinton's run?
You have to laugh at a man who is THIS committed to making a fool out of his wife and a mockery of GAY marriage. Well, is gay marriage really out of bounds here?
; ]
Cheers
999 we are doing fine! OK then I will see you later alligator, after while crocodile. Do I sound presidential? No way Jose, It's kind of lame Mr.Cain, it makes you sound like you are squirm-em Hermann.
Please stay in the race Mr. Cain. You are way to entertaining to quit now. Besides, Republican voters only hold their opponents to the high standards they set for others. They routinely give their own a pass (see Vitter, David).
If Mr. Cain leaves the race and it becomes a two man race between Weathervane Willard and Newt "I am not a salamander" Gingrich, I just may have to hit the snooze button. Maybe Rick Perry or batchitcrazy Michelle will make a come back. Or maybe my prayers will be answered and Sister Sarah will finally decide to jump in. The water's fine Sarah!
The Cain Train seems to be derailed. Not sure it can get back on track!

No need to get back on track, when the track is going over a cliff.
Al, The Alaskan WildDingBat is Reassessing her decision Not to Run. She's been watching from afar to see just How Crazy she hasta be in order to save the TeaParty from whats left of Mainstream Republicans. The Carnival Barkers(formerly known as the MSM)are waiting for her return to the Airwaves, so Red Meat will be thrown, instead of the Stupid stuff we see from this bunch of Clowns!
9-9-9 Herman drank Shine, Cain fell off the streetcar line, the line Broke, Cain got Choked & they all went for Newt, because we all know it's:
Anybody But Romney(ABR)
Occupy SoggyBottom!
So a good businessman looks at all the issues and then decides?.... so how long does this last, seems like he's been putting his freak on for quite some time and it's only now - when the you know what hit the fan and became public - that he's thinking of reassessing?
What a selfish pig. As long as his little "inappropriate" liaisons where kept quiet he presented himself, all smoke and mirrors, as a family man, as an ethical & moral man who hypocritically said was defending "marriage".... what a hoot! Comes to be he's a lying, cheating, horn dog who, in his old age, still can't keep it in his pants.... covers up his actions yet demands respect and loyalty while pointing the finger at others behavior.....
I hope that those that gave him money, followed his every word and decided they would support him will now "reassess' exactly what qualities are needed for a leader. Don't get me wrong, I don't care who this dog "does", that's their bad taste, what I do have exception to is all the rest: lying, twisting events, acting the victim, disrespecting other people, being a hypocrite, etc. Not to say that any of the others are moral standards either.... but if you belong to a party that keeps saying it's the party of "marriage", religion, morals, that state that anyone that represents them be and live CHRISTIAN, and all the rest.... you'd think they'd practice CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES (instead of being for killing the uninsured and the poor, abandoning the elderly, selling out to lobbyists and big business and they would pick better people to choose from, right?
They've given us greedy, materialistic, amoral, liars, cheaters, unethical and hypocritical people to pick a candidate from and I'm not alright with it. How about you? There isn't anyone there that's worth my vote!!!!!!

*giggle snort* lol
Who knows...maybe the TPGOP will pull a fast one (none of the above) at the national convention--pull a Christie or maybe Jeb Bush out of the woodwork...? Now that would be entertainment! Occupy SoggyBottom indeed!
"We have met the enemy and he is us!" Pogo by Walt Kelly
Can you imagine them running a
retardretread like Bush? lmao!OH Happy Days!
We want Sarah!! We want Sarah!!! (I am not smirking. I just have a condition.)
Now we know why Hermie needed Secret Service. To keep the ladies off of him.
Yup... cause Pimp Daddy is such a 'chick magnet'! lol
Getting things straight when listening to some of the GOP can be tricky sometimes. So just who, exactly, was the practicing mormon in the GOP race?
I miss Sarah.
I remember, as many of you should as well, the deep humiliation this nation went through when President Bill Clinton/Monica Lewinsky White House scenario blew up. I will never forget the pained look of embarrassment on Hillary Clinton's face and the courage it took to stay married to that guy.
No First Lady and no Nation should have to deal with a man who can't keep his pants up, fly closed and hands to himself.. Especially, if he is President!... It's a shame, I liked Herman Cain's political style; however, I love America.. We don't need a repeat of the past... It's time for Herman Cain to apologise to his wife, the nation and fade quietly away...
Bottom line... where there is smoke, there is fire... and, Herman Cain has struck too many matches...
Mikela,
Does it matter which GOP candidate is Mormon? Are you now picking a president by what church they attend on Sunday? If that's the case, Obama was raised Muslim, and didn't "convert to Christianity" until he became politically active in his mid 20's. Plus, in the last three years, you can count on one hand how many times Obama has been in a "Christian" Church on Sunday. So, I really think we are way past religion, at this point in the game.
Personally, I don't care what church these candidates (from either party) go to on Sunday.. Just as long as they are back to work, cleaning up this country's legislative mess on Monday!
Obama was not raised a Muslim. He lived with his step father for 4 years of his life. From birth to 6, he was raised by his mother, from 10-18, he was raised by his grandparents, and none of them were Muslim.
Cut it out feisty, you rethro head, I laughed so hard, I'm sure I woke my kids up!!!
Honestly no. One religion is as bad as the other when mixed into the political arena. I wouldn't vote for them simply because of how corrupt and regressive their party has become.
WHAT
IS WRONG WITH AMERICA? Cain previously worked for the FED and therefore, CANT BE TRUSTED. It shouldn’t take a sex scandal for America to know this. Just in case you didn't know. The FED (Federal Reserve) is a group of global private banks who have hijacked freedom and liberty, and Put US (and the world) in Bankruptcy. Ron Paul is the ONLY person who hasn’t been
pre-selected by evil corporations. Ron Paul is the ONLY person who isn’t going
to tell you what you want to hear to get elected. He is telling you what needs to get done.. Look at all the people who used to work for big corporations in our government. We don’t need another one PLEASE VOTE RON
PAUL
Bring back Kerry. But no Edwards as VP.
Who says there are no conspiracies? Sure a lot of conspiring to collapse Feisty.
Slow news day Tuesday - or MSNBC is going "People" magazine on us, I guess adults don't count as much as those who follow "Reality" TV. Anybody old enough to remember when MTV had music on it...lol.
Feisty, they may have no choice but to ask Jeb Bush and his Mexican wife to run. Maybe that's why Newt proposed amnesty...the GOP charade looks more and more like a 3-ring circus...and we don't even have to pay to watch the show!
Jeb Bush, his mexican wife and his crackhead daughter.
I think that is what the Captain of the Titanic said just before it sank. Bon voyage Mr. Cain!
Come on Cain - get out - while the getting is good.
You have been living these lies all your life and now it is coming out....you are a wanna be - check out Godfathers Pizza - it is only a few gas stations now....that went well.....
The Cain train is picking up more and more passengers everyday....and they are the ones that are in the sleeper cars...for your personal enjoyment.....
Get over yourself - you are a wanna be that can never be.
Give it up you hack and let someone else try and run this country from the White House not the bedroom.
What was the purpose of the "13-year" funds?
Were any reimbursement, advance or "substantiation" statements, signed by him as an officer with a fiduciary duty to the organization, false statements?
If so, the Board has a fiduciary duty to recourp them, perhaps with interest.
If it occurred, does the Board have an obligation to report embezzlement, theft, misappropriation to the legal authoiities?
Would they be wise for the Board to conduct at Freeh-type independent investigation by forensic accountants to protect themselves from having, or have a defense against, alleged claimed knowledge or complicity or negligence?
Does Herm lose (or even have) any indemnification and insurance protection from NRA under these circumstances?
Who is the custodian of the records? Who has custody and control now? Will the reimbursement records be made public to try to recoup the already-tarnished reputation of the NRA?
Maybe HERM criminal lawyer is not just along for the ride.

POTENTIAL TAX AND OTHER POTENTIAL LIABILITY
If he received any "13 year" or other money as so-called "reimbursement", and it was in the service of non-NRA business, is it income to him?
If so, did he report it as taxable income for 13 years (along with any other non-NRA reimbursement), and is that a pattern of tax fraud?
Ginger White, and a prosecutor, would not be anonymous.
Has a grand jury already been empaneled and granted Ginger White use (complete) immunity?

Hey, pssssst, Feisty, your profile pic shows a true lack of class. But then again, absolutely no surprise here.
I have to ask, why are you hiding down here?
Excuse me? You, little buddy wouldn't recognize 'class' if it bit you on your ass!
Are we straight now?
PS: Thanks to the overwhelming response to my 'avatar'... it's here to stay...
Deal with it! ;o)
I am more than a little tired of feisty and her mutual admiration society, this is supposed to be a discussion, not name calling. You have sunk to the level of the hard right.
I see nothing wrong with Feisty's avatar. At least it's an original & not a copycat.
As far as the topic goes, Cain is now a joke. Unless one sees it in Washington's terms. It appears that a honest, sane, straight up member of our society is ineligible to be a politician, or a serious candidate for being one.
One thing that you can believe, if Cain would abuse the trust of his own wife, what makes one think that he would actually give a damn about us?
He only cares for his own needs.
Cat
in sig posts 4, "use (complete) immunity" should read "transactional (complete) immunity".
Of course you'll have an overwhelming response from fawning liberals who can't think for themselves like most liberals. Let me let you in on a little secret from a conservative here: We don't sit around and watch Fox News all day. I was a conservative way before it came along and much more conservative than Fox typically is. So you can label us that way, but conservatives like myself know I get my information from mutiple sources. Unlike you and your other Socialists/Liberals/Progressives(backward thinking(/Marxists/Commies/Commie-wanna-bes. Let's guess where you get yours: MSNBC (Matthews, Maddow, ODonnell), Bill Maher, Media Matters (Soros owned), Jon Stewart. See how I said that, without vulgar language, which shows quite a bit of class there Feisty!!
Well, at least there are no boys coming forward to say he sleep with them to. That, at least, is a blessing. Yes, he is Horny but I am not so sure about the chastity of these women finally coming forward. Why wait until now? Women are a bit crafty huh.
In the words of Dirty Harry Callahan: "Day ain't over yet."
starfox: could your bar get any lower for a presidential candidate?? (and did you seriously use the word "chastity" to describe your test of whether the women he hit on are believable? Just what century are you from?)
Starfox, sorry but I put sexually assaulting women in the same category that I put molesting boys. I suppose you'd find molesting girls better than molesting boys?
Robert, there's a big difference between molesting children and adult women. You have to be a total pervert to molest children. Cain, on the other hand, is just another philandering wannabe who can't keep his pants zipped and who can't admit he does not have a single qualification that makes him a viable candidate.
I dunno, Susi-Oh, I'm with Robert on this one. Both are indicative of a highly anti-social person. And by anti-social I don't mean an introvert, I mean someone who is utterly unconcerned with the rest of society.
They didn't wait til now to come out...They were outed...all of them. They thought that nasty part of their lives was over but they had to relive the humiliation and the molestation over again while their names were dragged through the mud
This guy is such a tool. Is he really the best the Republicans can dredge up? Even the "Anyone But Obama" crowd must be getting disillusioned at this point, given the pathetic roster of potential candidates. How can anyone in the GOP be heartened by a raft of losers so pitiful that they make Newt Gingrich look like a combination of Einstein and Captain America? Sheesh!
Maybe he's already done a little too much ass-essing.
There's always pizza if the presidential thing doesn't go well.
The delusion continues.
My new theory about the republican candidates is as follows: They (republicans) so messed up the economy that they don't want to win the White House in 2012. They can't fix the mess that they created, so they want BO to win and fix it for them! If you don't believe me...just look at the republican candidates!!!!!!!!!! My barber has better ideas than the lot of them.
Allen: Your saviour Big O has had three years and we've been on a down hill slide since then. When do you think he's gonna start? You poor libs have been sucked in so deep all that's showing is your bare backside, which, by the way is the same source of your words.
Downhill slide? I don think so.
When he took office the UE rate was over 7.5% and we were hemorrhaging a half a million jobs per MONTH. We've now had over 18 months of consecutive economic growth. Anemic growth admittedly, but considering the crater we were in in 2009, the hole we are in now looks pretty darn good by comparison. That's no "downhill slide".
If the Reoubs had not blocked every single proposal the President put forward over the last 2 years, we'd be in even better shape.
But the Repubs dont want a robust middle class and economy......they just want Obama to fail so they might gain power.
"Country first" my arse!
to imnotlost: What are you smoking? GW created the havoc before he left, but I forget he is forgiven since he uttered the fairy tales sentence. And I also forget that you right wing nuts are believers in fairy tales.. Get a life and some brains. Stop spreading the hate and act like the christian you claim to be.
I wish there was a God and Judgment day so you can answer for your actions!
Actually when Obama took office jobs were being lost at the rate of 750,000 per month. We have now had 20 months of positive job growth and almost 3 million jobs have been added to the economy.
When Bush became president the unemployment rate was 4.2% but when he left the unemployment rate was 7.8% and climbing. Bush has the worst job creation record of any US President since records were first kept in 1939. In fact only 3 million jobs were created in 8 years with Bush vs 23 million under Clinton!
More jobs would have been created under Obama if the Republicons didn't block every single bill to add jobs to the economy.
@quacksnacker - are you sure about that? Have you TRIED his pizza? It makes OLD (before the new recipe) Domino's Pizza taste good by comparison! I wouldn't want THAT to be MY fallback plan.
You people just don't get it. Doc Rock, current unemployment is over 9% and is stalled. At Bush's departure 7.5%(your words). Sid, regardless if Bush caused all our troubles, Obama has had three years to turn it around and has nothing but more debt to show for it. Molly, more jobs would have been created if republicans didn't block everything? Are you serious? He had the biggest ever stimulus package handed to him as Bush was leaving office and wasted it all, mostly in giveaways, nothing to show for it. Why would they even entertain the thought of passing his current jobs bill. Pitiful.
To "I'm not lost". Oh yes you are. You're off the trail and in the deep woods. I'm a moderate conservative who did not vote for Obama. I went far right and voted Libertarian last time. But your right wing stooges in Washington has spent the past three years blocking everything obama tried to do, watering things down and protecting the ultra rich. I don't care for Obama. I think he's spineless. But I'd like to have seen what he would have done if your right wing rich boy's toads hadn't been obstructing all the way. I won't vote for Obama again but I won't vote Republican either. The only thing worse than Obama is the Republicans this time around. I'm voting Green Party this time. ANYONE but the Republicans and Dems. Pigs of a different color at the trough.
Our savior big O is not a clown like the Nine Stooges that
you used tea bags call presidential contenders.
Your strength lies in the veracity of your insults. You seem to think that the nastier you are
the more forceful your arguments.
Perpetual criticisms of the president does not require any
brain power. Even the brain dead used
tea bags can criticize the president.
The problem is that when you are required to think outside
the sphere of perpetual criticism you have a brain fart.
You know that you are against the president’s decisions, but you can’t articulate because you have nothing upstairs.
What fills us, followers of our savior big O, with great
joy, is that you are going to have the next four years to perfect your art of
idiotic infantile criticisms of our great president.
Robert: I keep trying to tell you guys Bush gave him all that stimulus money when he left office and he squandered it all. Even GM and Chrysler were forgiven billions in payback from TARP stimulus. There's no reason to think he would do anything different with the jobs bill he wants passed now. You'll never understand it, so sit down and wait till next Nov. and we'll talk more when the wash comes out.
Is the Green Party running a candidate?
Obamanatic: Everything I said about the stimulus is fact. Look it up.
Me!? Infantile insults? Start at #1 above and digest. Pitiful.
imnotlost, the facts, economics, and history simply don't support your case. Unemployment is a LAGGING economic indicator, which means it bottoms AFTER the weakest part of the recession. Manufacturing is a LEADING economic indicator. Unemployment numbers tend to lag by about 6 to 9 months, although those averages extend during extreme recessions like this one. Google "Institute of Supply Management manufacturing index" and follow along. Industry in the U.S. was sucking wind and in sharply recessionary territory when GWB left office. It shot up a few months after BO took office, went from negative territory to positive territory then it stabilized, then it came back down but REMAINED IN POSITIVE TERRITORY. Which shows that the stimulus is working, albeit slowly. This isn't a political opinion, this is looking at the same charts economists have watched for 200 years.
OK Barry: There's credence in what you say, but there should be some sign of job growth by now, but where is it? Now he wants more and what's he going to do with it. He doesn't have a clue and has surrounded himself with people just like him. If he gets re-elected and we have the same thing in 2016, the same people will still be blaming Bush because they hate Rebublicans so. It's time to re-assess who we want to be running the country.
imsolost. The job growth is all around, all you have to do is open your eyes. Also, TARP was NOT a stimulus program, it was a bandaid to stop the bleeding. I love how you say people are "blaming Bush" but you wingnuts to this day, blame Carter for a recession that hit 6 months AFTER he left office, and Clinton for one that started 2 months after he left office. This recession started a year before Obama was elected, it was the worst contraction of the GDP since the recession, its going to take a lot more time before employment numbers are low again. Hell, after the recession of 2001, it took over 5 years for the unemployment rates to fall to what it was before it, and that was a very mild recession.
Imnotlost: You claim Barack Obama squandered money. How? What did he spend it on? He was forced to give the bush tax cuts to the rich in order to get anything done. Also the ilk of Eric Cantor who says the disaster-declared areas should only be helped by a corresponding spending offset and yet didn't say a word when it affected his backyard in Virginia. I guess he should have looked to his neighbors to help out instead of looking to the government.
Facts are facts, and the housing collapse is predominantly a Democrat originating issue. It was Democrats who allowed garbage loans, it was Democrats who blocked efforts for 8 years to fix the housing bubble. In the last 100 years, its been Democrats who have held the majority in Congress for a substantially higher amount then Republicans. Finally, its a fact that Obama had 2 years he was able to pass anything without a single Republican approval in congress. Where is his fix? He has had a super majority for 2 years and all he has done is inflate another bubble.
Please cite where you get this garbage from or shut up.
Youve posted a bunch of right wing talking points.
SHOW US THE NUMBERS!!!
You can't, cuz it's all BS.

Now THAT is funny! :-)
Blah, blah, blah, make me a pizza, biiiaaatttccchhh!!!
This self absorbed nut is delusional. If he cared anything about the GOP he would back out. I think it is funny when a liar believes his own lies and thinks everyone else is equally convinced.
there is absolutely nothing presidential about Cain. I'm more qualified to be President than he is and buddy this country is in trouble if I were President. I'd never let Congress go home unless they started acting like adults instead of trained chimps for special interests.
where were you when Obama ran? Obama had no leadership postions did you blindly support him?
His new campaign cry can be: 69 time sure felt fine, it ain't very kind to call me slime for using my power to try to deflower.
Robert 258--you've got my vote over Cain's ANY DAY!!!!
Come now, its' not his fault. Poor Herman will soon be anouncing that hes' been diagnosed as a sex addict, will publicly be begging God and his family for forgiveness while some preacher in the background will be heard shouting "Praise the Lord!!" And we'll all be expected to feel sorry for him!

Stick a fork in Herman...
He's a pizza guy. I think it is time to take him out of the oven and slice him.
Al: I wouldn't vote for Hermie or any in that group. He is unqualified for a number of reasons (as are the others), but not because he's a pizza guy. Keep in mind our 39th President was a peanut farmer and the 40th was an actor. lol
he must of called her ..and offerd her pizza for life
Stick a fork in Herman...

Not a righteous man... His new campaign site has been moved to Blacks on Blondes..lol

All I see are liberal opinions here and frankly they sound like desperate childish rantings. People who really have no clue about what anyone else in the usa thinks.
Like;Obama is to expensive for this nation. Anyone is better then the statues quo.
Like; all of obamas ideas are to pricey for a nation who under obamas watch has spent and wants to spend money this nation cannot afford.
Like; Yes Even herman Cain is a better choice then the statues quo.
Like; This nation needs change from the change crap this nation stepped into when they voted for a man who claimed to be middle and was way over the cliff in spending money we cannot afford.
There is a year to decide who is going to clean up the enormous destruction the democrats created.
God bless not damn America it has been damned for far to long by the destructive democratic spending spree.
Everyone in this nation owes 180.000 at least half of that was spent under obamas watch. What in anyones mind would make obama a choice for the future a future of 250.000, 500,000 a million? What do you want to owe your nation.
This nation needs and deserves much better then the drag it into a third world it has gotten over the last five years of democratic foolishness.
The people spoke loud and clear when they voted in record numbers of republicans. They clearly havent spoken loud enough and I dont think for one minute they are done speaking up.
@ sandyshores10:
So, when exactly will your great repub landslide begin to do something to help the people of this country? So far, it's totally been about removing Obama; nothing the repubs have done is helping our economy. Where do you think the 'give more money to the millionaires' concept will get us? Really!
Even looking at numerous polls, people (both parties) are overwhelming okay with a more fair tax on the upper income groups. But repub's don't see that; they ignore even what their own base tells them.
Seriously, the whole repub goal is to get rid of Obama. That's it. Has NOTHING to do with making this country stronger, more robust, and moving forward. It's all about THEM. STOP BEING THE PARTY OF NOOOO, already!
