Man, I didn't see that coming! Cry me a river now, and do it again in November.

Yes, the GOP is stuck with Mittens as their man of the year.

Bring it on!!!

OBAMA/BIDEN 2012

By all means, lets replace one big government liberal with another big government liberal...then we can spend an extra 1/2 billion redecorating the white house...and a year replacing the criminals in the white house with a different batch of criminals...The "R" Party can go take a flying leap, I would rather this nation suffer 4 more years of Obama...at least then we have a chance to bury the progressive movement for another 80 years...Please China, save us from ourselves...Our two party substitute for democracy makes you the shinning light of Freedom

Man, I didn't see that coming! Cry me a river now, and do it again in November.

Sorry I can't you know John Boehner has to get his party on. Can you see this coming?

In the Gallup poll conducted 4/11-4/15 polling over 2200 registered voters it breaks down likes this:

2200 is hardly a statistically significant sample of the U.S. voting pool. As we have seen time and time again, the electoral college and delegates count -- not the popular vote. We still have over 200 days until the election, making poll numbers even more pointless at this point. To be fair, I would respond the same if those numbers were reversed.

However, I'm sure you would have some sort of an excuse if your guy was not at the top of that poll, blaming this person or that group, bias, etcetera, etcetera. As long as your guy is "winning," all must be right with those numbers. Your playbook is exposed and boring.

Your response still does not make sense in response to the original post. It is clear that the conservative base is dissatisfied with Romney as the GOP pick. Hence, they are "stuck" with him. Conservatives cannot carry the GOP, nor a general election, without pandering outward to moderates.

Do you know when you've reached the point of grasping at straws, any straw, in a desperate attempt to keep from drowning???

When all you have is a poll that has a margin of error of 3%...and you proudly proclaim that you're leading...by 2.

To Puh-lease and Chicken Squared.

I find it interesting that each of you as well as NBC/FR will use and stand squarely behind every poll that favors a democrat. When an unbiased poll from Gallup doesn't support your candidate/party or if it is only a small percentage, you want to try to spin it in an effort to misconstrue the findings.

Conservatives can't carry the GOP? We'll see. But the fact of the Gallup poll I posted also shows a greater margin of independents supporting Romney. Who ever captures the majority of independents will be the next president. If that weren't true there would be no reason for the president to be trying so hard to capture the indy vote. To this point he is failing. Just as he has failed to lead this country.

Obama and Romney haven't even debated yet. I don't see why anyone on either side is so concerned about poll numbers.

@leftliberalliars

1.) You assume I support Obama, even though I have only stated that I do not support Romney and that I am not a conservative. Tsk tsk. Meanwhile, you tout that independents are the key to the election.

2.) You just repeated exactly what I said to you. To the contrary, I wrote:

To be fair, I would respond the same if those numbers were reversed.

Polls (especially 200-day early polls) are pointless when it comes to elections because elections are not based on the popular vote, regardless of where they come from or who they support.

3.) We have already seen in the GOP primary, and in 2008, that conservatives alone cannot carry the GOP.

President Obama and his minions are going to be vetted this time around. The BS that they spew will be shown to be what it is, BS. I see another shellacking of the progressive/liberal agenda in November. Even MSNBC has a current article that is not very flattering to our President. It actually says his new stand on oil trading is nothing but politics. But whenever MSNBC is critical of President Obam they don't allow us to post comments. I'm tired of the BS from this administration and I am sure that I am not alone.

1/20/2013 - the end of an error

Romney will be better for the country than Obama. Romney couldn't do as much damage as Obama in the next four years so we might as well give him a shot. We can get rid of him after 4 years just like this current administration.

Status Quo. Another man with a pretty low approval. Phony conservative too.. To him being a conservative means stealing from the working class. Since Ron Paul has way more delegates than the media will admit, lets just get a few more delegate voting Americans to join the rallies of thousands of people and finish pushing a true conservative over the top. Lets guarantee ourselves no more WAR without the peoples approval. Lets have a sound money so the next generation can retire on time. Lets take the battle to socialism and restore a free market that government and crony capitalism can never again destroy. Get them out of it!! Lets get ourselves out of debt to communist China. Lets elect a man who knows what the oath is and has proved he loves this country with his record. Cast the real vote.. Delegate Ron Paul 2012.. Go.. Stand up and be counted.. We have to challenge the status-quo and demand real change.. Change you can believe in.. Ron Paul.. Seeing Romney only has 500 delegates as being reported by this media that should leave you to ask... Where are all the other delegates? Yep.. Mitts the media money master elites pick.. But RON PAUL is the PEOPLES President,,, NOT the MEDIAS...

I was fairly sure the only thing Boehner endorsed was the tanning salon.

Romney is just Obama.. Face it.. Don't stick your head in the sand anymore!! Stop accepting rigged primaries that lead you to only have 2 evils to choose from.. Romney is Obama.. Look

leftliberalliar.....If the republicans can succeed in keeping Latinos, women, and people with an education from voting, Romney should be a shoe in !

Ruken

Obama and Romney haven't even debated yet. I don't see why anyone on either side is so concerned about poll numbers.

That's right, Ruken, and when they go head-to-head, Obama is going to mop the floor with Romney.

Mittens has nothing to offer but lies.

Really John?? What a surprise. Another "non" conservative just like ol' Dubya!! No thanks. After eight years of his administration, I'd rather see Obama in there for another 4. I mean under Bush the size of government doubled, deficit spending returned, the debt skyrocketed with 2 unfunded wars, the corporate losses were socialized with taxpayer funded bailouts, American people were laid off by the millions, there was TARP and TBTF, another socialist program for seniors (Medicare part D), Katrina, and gas cost as much then as it does now! Why would I want to "reward" a Republican candidate with my vote when his rhetoric doesn't fit his record? When everything he says he doesn't stand for, he's done himself? When he has stood on every side of every issue?

I actually believe it's going to be very good debates especially when questions are asked about the economy. So you'd better listen up, because we'll all hear the different versions each candidate has for the future of our country. Remember we still have 27 mil unemployed/underemployed and we need a president who can get this economy moving.

I'm a moderate republican, just as president Reagan (read the facts). I'm sorry to say, some of these so called conservatives have NO CLUE on what it really means to live conservative. Yeah, it's sounds good but do they walk the walk as they talk the talk?Romney doesn't. Romney will flip flop IF he gets elected. You see, I'm not going around and follow some entertainers talking points. It's sad to see that our political process has come down to no one wants to compromise. This president didn't put us in a deficet within 3 years.

Christy/Nutter 2016

leftliberalliar....FOH

No real surprise for this speaker of the house..he is doing just what he was told to do in order to keep his position.

"President Obama and his minions are going to be vetted this time around."

This time around?? You teatards have thrown every kind of insane charge at this president and you have yet to find anything that sticks. He's not a Muslin, he was born in the US, he didn't attend college based on affirmative action, he wasn’t born rich, he isn’t a communist, a socialist, a Marxist or a Stalinist, he doesn’t believe in “black liberation philosophy, (whatever the hell that is) NOTHIG idiots like Glenn Beck or Rush the junkie rep[eats over and over turns out to be true. this is the most vetted president in history and since you teatards can't find any dirt -- you make things up. Yet the vast majority of the American people simply blow you off as crazies -- which most of you are.

Charlie,

Haven't you heard??? Obama's just waiting for his SECOND term. Just wait, come next year he's going to use Bible's for toilet paper, make everyone drive a Hybrid car, get gay married, and eat aborted fetuses and organic brussel sprouts. Then, he's going to round up all the wealthy, white men, herd them into planes and push them out over factories and Christian churches, effectively using them as bombs.

Mark my words.

Charlie

You listed many things that most Americans could agree with you. But you didn't list any accomplishments. Are there any? Health care is still undecided. He got rid of DADT, a democratic Congress written law and signed by a democrat President. And you must not forget that the person who started the lie about President Obama not being born in America was Philip Berg, a democrat supporter of Hillary Clinton. The left has a good way of spinning things but some of the things you mention have beeen said by the left.

President Obama was not vetted enough before the last election. He makes up so much BS that the American people are going to throw his administration out next November.

"Charlie

You listed many things that most Americans could agree with you. But you didn't list any accomplishments."

OK -- let's try these accomplishments:

• Job losses per month in January 2008: 700,000
• Job gains last month: 120,000
• 25 straight months of private sector gob growth
• GDP growth in 2008: negative 6%
• GDP growth last year 2.9%
• Dow Jones Average in January 2008: Under 8000
• Dow Jones Average today: 13,000+
• Record domestic oil production
• GM – all time record profits
• Near record corporate profits across the board
• Osama Bin Laden --- dead
• Iraq war --- over

"And you must not forget that the person who started the lie about President Obama not being born in America was Philip Berg, a democrat supporter of Hillary Clinton."

So what?? a lie is a lie is a lie is a lie. It doesn't matter who started it. And the teapublicans have been running with it for 4 years. And no matter hos much you run your yap about it or how much you deny it -- this president has been vetted more than any president in American history. You've tried and tried to find some bombshell but you can't.

"He makes up so much BS that the American people are going to throw his administration out next November."

Well JH --- read the numbers. It seems the American people disagree with you.

CNN national poll (April 13-15, 2012)

• Obama leads Romney by 9 points (52/43) among registered voters.
• Can get the economy moving: Obama 44%, Romney 42%
• Agrees with you on issues important to you: Obama 49%, Romney 37%
• In touch with middle class problems: Obama 51%, Romney 33%
• In touch with problems facing women: Obama 55%, Romney 27%
• Can best handle the responsibilities of CIC: Obama 52%, Romney 36%
• Is a strong and decisive leader: Obama 50%, Romney 34%
• Honest and trustworthy: Obama 44%, Romney 33%
• Stands up for what he believes: Obama 50%, Romney 29%
• Regardless of who you favor who do believe will win: Obama 61%, Romney 35%

"Haven't you heard??? Obama's just waiting for his SECOND term."

I forgot!! In his second term he going to impose Sharia law, confiscate all guns, impose a 150% income tax rate, destroy all gasoline pumps, make Islam the national religion, close down all Christian churches and schools, make abortion mandatory, and all that just on the first day of his second term.

Charlie

Another lie from the left is the so-called facts of the last 2 Bush years. This country is run by Congress. Congress was fully controlled by Democrats since January 2007 until January 2011. So any negatives you list from 2008 can be attributed to Democrats. We can thank Republicans and Democrats for all the gains since January 2011.

1/20/2013 - the end of an error

There will NOT be a second term for president Obama.

JH - again with the lie about congress. President Obama had a filibuster proof congress for 7 short months 7/7/2009 until 2/4/2010. And, during that time Senator Kennedy was ill so he was out quite a bit. And, the congress had recess. Without a filibuster proof congress President Obama could get nothing accomplished because the GOP declared they would make him a one term President and blocked everything he attempted to do.

Obama/Biden 2012

Hillary/??? 2016

GOP - never again until they develop some common sense!

This country is run by Congress. Congress was fully controlled by Democrats since January 2007 until January 2011

OK -- so name me one single bill Congress passed (and Bush signed) from the time the Democrats took charge of Congress in January 2007 that caused a loss of 700,000 jobs per month less than 2 years later. Can you do that?? My guess is NO. And remember -- this recession started in late 2005 -- BEFORE the Democrats took over Congress. Why on earth do you think Republicans got their asses handed to them in 2006?

You can wish for a Romney win in November all you want but at this time --- things don't look good for him. All the indicators are pointing in the wrong direction. I mean -- even a sizable number of Republicans can''t stand him. He's pulled one of the worst mistakes anyone can in just about any walk of life -- he's tried to be something he's not. He's a phony. Even 5 year old kids can spot phoniness.

Seeking & Charlie

Answer this question, If the dems couldn't get anything done with the majority they had in Congress because the republicans blocked eveything, how can you put the blame totally on republicans for the mess we're in? Where were the democrats when Bush was in office. If he was doing such terrible things to the country why didn't they stop him? They evidently had the votes to stop everything that Bush wanted to do because Congress wasn't nearly as lopsided. They must just be totally incompetent or STUPID. Which is it?

The last time this country had one party total control of the White House and Congress was Jimmy Carter's administration. Things look very familiar today, don't they?

Charlie, you are mistaken. I think you are the first person to say that this recession started in 2005. Go back and look at some facts, Charlie. This country was in good shape until mid 2007. The Republicans got their asses handed to them in 2006 because this country was tired of listening to the whiney dems saying Bush was bad, Bush was bad, Bush was bad. Guess what, Obama is bad and why do you think the democrats got their asses handed to themselves in 2010?

JH - again, without a filibuster proof congress you cannot get things accomplished when one party is against you. But, you know you are spouting nonsense! And, the GOP IS TO Blame! They are incompetent and stupid!

Charlie is right. The recession started in 2005. Check out real economic data instead of just what you make up. But, that doesn't fit your agenda does it? My guess is you and Kurt are REALLY GOOD FRIENDS!!!

Boehner and McConnell couldn't be more backwards!

You "endorse" a candidate to help that person get the nomination, NOT after Republicans have absolutely no other choice because everybody else ran out of money or dropped out!

Goofy!

Obama / Biden 2012

Answer this question, If the dems couldn't get anything done with the majority they had in Congress because the republicans blocked eveything, how can you put the blame totally on republicans for the mess we're in?

Try to understand this -- the Recession started in 2005 when Republicans controlled the White House, the House of representatives and the Senate. Your Republicans held all the marbles when this recession -- the worst in 80 years -- began. And today -- the only answers Republicans have to fix the economy is more of the same policies -- tax cuts for the richest of the rich and more deregulation -- are the same policies that caused it in the first place. Remember -- it was George W. Bush and his Republican Congress who brought us two unfunded wars, two unfunded tax cuts, a massive, unfunded, new entitlement, the largest expansion of government since LBJ, the largest increase in energy prices in any 8 year period in our history, along with a net loss of jobs over 8 years all while turning the largest surplus of all times into the largest deficit of all times and leaving office with the worst economy since the depressions.

The last time this country had one party total control of the White House and Congress was Jimmy Carter's administration.

That't total BS. From the tile Bush took office until 2007 Republicans controlled both the House and Senate except for a few months when one republican switched to independent. Get your FACTS right.

Charlie, you are mistaken. I think you are the first person to say that this recession started in 2005

WOW!! Typical low information Republican!! Any FACT you don't like you simply deny it. If the economy was in such great shape in 2006, why did the Republican get kicked out of both the House and Senate??

Did you know a military grade satellite-under cover of FBI investigations-destroys citizens by manipulating their health without the target even knowing and sometimes using the same program the FBI can use a series of perfectly synchronized investigative pretexts to derail the target from employment, relationships, friends, ect also usually without the target ever knowing it where war time powers are concealed within the safety of national security investigations...

If that statement were to be true, what do you think the public's reaction to it should be?

Hey JH --- I'm waiting for you to name me one single bill Congress passed (and Bush signed) from the time the Democrats took charge of Congress in January 2007 that caused a loss of 700,000 jobs per month less than 2 years later.

What's the hold up???

"I think Mitt Romney has a set of economic policies that can put Americans back to work and, frankly, contrast sharply with the failed economic policies of President Obama."

"Failed economic policies of President Obama??" Seems like they succeeded, while yours fell flat on the ground. The stimulus package saved the economy and created at least 2 million jobs, reversed GDP loss, and led the way for two years of private sector job growth. Obama's jobs bill (fully paid for) would have added an extra 2 million people payrolls. What does Mitt have to offer???? Tax cuts that will break the Treasury, and spending cuts that will lead to an economic collapse. Yeah, right.

Obama/Biden More taxes, more waste, more entitlements, more socialist policies and radical appointments.

Technically, Obama will only raise taxes on the wealthy. That doesn't seem so bad, considering that their tax rate is the lowest in decades. And Obama hasn't done anything socialist or added any more entitlements. Obamacare simply covers more people for Medicaid and forces to people to buy private insurance. As for radical appointments, we have had five conservative justices for years, and they bungled up the Bush v. Gore election and Citizens United. I think it's time we had some liberals on the bench.

Obama's venture into venture capitalism shows his lack of knowledge of how the economy works.

Obama never went into venture capitalism. He simply gave grants to green companies in order to boost growth. As for GM and Chrysler, the bailout was a huge success. Both companies are booming, and GM is now the number one automaker in the world. Plus they are both making profits AND hiring American workers.

Time for Mitt to clean up Obama's mess. This is the worst recovery since the great depression and Mitt will fix the economy. bring pride back to the United States with job creation, a balanced budget, and lower taxes for all.

What mess does Mitt have to clean up??? The deficit under Obama has gone down from $1.4 trillion to $1.1 trillion, the economy has created millions of private sector jobs, and the Dow is over 13,000. Mitt's economic plan only includes lowering taxes (increases deficit, hurts economy in future) and spending cuts, which will add more people to the unemployment line. Romney's tax plan wouldn't balance the budget; in fact, it would add $3.4 trillion to current deficits. And how can you lower taxes AND balance the budget??? You cannot balance the budget now with only spending cuts, so how will you cover trillions in future tax cuts???? Under Romney's tax plan, the wealthy would get a $150,000 check while those who make less than $30,000 get a tax increase, and in order to balance the budget the economy would have to grow 5.4% every year, more than during the dot-com bubble. It is highly unlikely that these tax cuts will spur such dynamic growth; the Bush tax cuts didn't, so what good is more cuts???

OBAMA BIDEN 2012

There is nothing like a late, rather tepid endorsement by the GOP's top henchmen to give Etch-A-Sketch delusions of adequacy.

According to Ruken, "Obama and Romney haven't even debated yet. I don't see why anyone on either side is so concerned about poll numbers." Exactly. In another article, about Ted Nugent's latest rant where he possibly threatens Obama with violence, Romney didn't have a statement to make on the subject (Nugent had also endorsed Romney). Instead, the Romney campaign statement came from a spokesperson. Either Romney is ambivalent about threats on the President's life, even when coming from a celebrity endorser, or his campaign didn't trust him to make the statement himself.

In my opinion, the real test will be the debates between Obama and Romney, when Romney can't have surrogates speak for him and he puts his foot in his mouth about every other sentence.

I think you are the first person to say that this recession started in 2005. Go back and look at some facts, Charlie. This country was in good shape until mid 2007. The Republicans got their asses handed to them in 2006 because this country was tired of listening to the whiney dems saying Bush was bad,

Yet another attempt to rewrite history. The Republicans got their asses handed to them because they were doing a really bad job of running the country! Face it, it wasn't whiney Dems who voted them out; it was American voters!

Republicans still don't get it. Voters put politicians into power, Republican or Democrat. And voters take them out of power!

I just love McConnell's endorsement...

Yeah, I support Governor Romney for president of the United States. And he is going to be the nominee.

Sounds like my teenage nephew, "Yeah, I'll take out the trash. I guess someone's gotta do it." Has there been a single enthusiastic endorsement of Romney yet? Almost every response about supporting Romney has started with, "Well, um, uh, I, uh guess, uh... Since everyone else dropped out, and there's no other choice... then I suppose..."

OH WOW this is stunning news...

The Leaders of the Republican Party have endorsed the certain nominees of their party for President! I mean who do you think they would endorse? Hugo Chavez or Vladimir Putin?

Non News

(And this is certainly no attack on Romney, just pointing out how this is not news anyone than if Ronald McDonald said he likes Big Macs)

Duh

Ahh but beyond the polls and media BS, Wasn't Boehner the one who promoted the SAY NO agenda over the past 3 years. Yup he sure is a grand representative of the people. Anything that passed through OUR Congress has been rejected due to the GOP's SAY NO AGENDA!!!!!!!!!!

I guess Boehner has to tie one on after making that endorsement.

Boehner LIES about his drinking too, I hear more than 2 beers or drinks & he is out cold or puking on himself or Cantor .

Nancy Pellosi had to pick him up off the floor once to keep the newscameras from recording him, it's why he NEVER attacks her directly & why Cantor cannot trust Boehner, he thinks there's MORE TO IT than just saving a mans rep.

Wonder what took John so long to get on the Weather Vane's band wagon? Maybe it's Boneheads beer goggles clouding his vision, again.

OK - so the leader of the House Republicans --- the House that only 13% of the population thinks is doing a good job -- now endorses Romney. Well -- I suppose it could be worse. I mean -- it's not as bad a Charles Manson saying he supports you.

Charlie - not as bad as Charles Manson but pretty damned close!

Dang, the full blown goofball TRIFECTA just came in.....Bobby Jindall, Bachman, and now Boehner as a endorsement for 2nd place. The question will be who will actually get INTO the boat with Romney and end their career forever as a losing VP candidate???

Whoever does that is crazy or wants to collect SS early........

What is Bonehead going to do, teach Mitt's female economic adviser how to cry???

@ Seven2Seven: minor correction to your note. On John King tonight, Bachman still refuses to formally endorse Romney. She wants him to win, but...steadfastly would not endorse him. (Perhaps she wants to wait till after the other two jump out.)

Actually, I don't believe any Repub really wants to endorse him. He just has the most money and can stay in it the longest.

I live in Boehner's state - Ohio. I have to wonder just how much the endorsement of a lame duck means. Boehner ain't long for his term.

both bohner and romney should suck on nugent's machine gun.

The border patrol agents families , shedded many tears...

WTF? What the hell does this have to do with Boehner's endorsement of Romney? Nice try Frosty.

devie - bigbenalaska always puts things in unrelated to anything really.

Feisty Redhead: There you go again, calling names and as usual you didn't make an intelligent comment and the comment you made is getting alot of negative feedback. When will you learn.

When will you learn.

You are under the misguided belief... I give a rats ass what YOU think!

Are we clear now?

PS: The Feisty Redhead Fan Club is chock full with a 6+ month wait for admission, so you will have to take a number!

Boehner is such a bad joke no even cares about what he thinks. If you notice no half way creditable republican is in the race. Why because they know President Obama will get reelected. VP vet. I wonder how many will turn him down and that not be reported on?

Cantor from Va. He is done and he knows it. Most of the republican that got elected in 2010 will lose their seats. And Boehner will be left to crying again.

Dang, Feisty, I was hoping to jump the line...oh well. ;>)

Hewing to the main topic, that had to be some bitter kool-aid for Boehner to swallow...though I'm sure he spiked it with something to help ease the pain. Just get those car keys.

bigbenalaska

The border patrol agents families , shedded many tears after getting killed from a guns sent to Mexico by Obama's Eric Holder ....

Don't you think .... ??

So did the families of over 5,500 Americans killed in Iraq and Afghanistan after being killed in a stupid war that was waged by idiots on both sides (mostly Republican, though) of the aisle. Not to mention the families of those who lost limbs, were disabled, or saw their friends-in-arms blown to smithereens by a bloody IED. Where the @!$%# is the outrage there???? Bush effectively killed them; why don't you talk about that, "big ben?????" At least Obama's "Fast and Furious" plan (originated from Bush) was for a worthy cause; stopping gun smuggling. The bloody wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were for oil and power. Not democracy, not safety, but oil and power. And all they accomplished was creating a power vacuum in Iraq and an unstable "democracy" in Afghanistan that will require our aid for decades!!!!

Now, wait! How much courage did it take for Boehner to wait until there was a clear winner to endorse him? Gotta love those courageous Republicans, don't we?

And, Bigben, you do know that that guns started to be sent to Mexico under Bush's administration, don't you? Sorry, but most of the ills that Republicans bitch about all started under a Republican regime. But, sorry, don't let any facts interfere with your rants!

Feisty will call Boehner an alcoholic in 3...2..1...

Don't shoot the messenger Bob - I'm only relaying what his own party thinks...

Which I happen to agree with, nothing worse then a sloppy drunk like Boner!

nobody likes a sloppy drunk boner ramming into things

FeRRIL, to say the least, a real snicker-doodler and "kookie" too!

Feisty, please forgive my attempt at humor by way of ad hominem. I swore I'd not stoop to the level you so excel in. As penitence I promise never to respond to a post by you again. Your do-whack-ado ways in writing are not worth posters' time...and here I've done that as well...oh my!

What's with Biden and Hillary lately ....

Really looking kind of grim .... "LOL"

Fiesty.

You are no member of the Party. We only want American who can work and think and provide for themselfs. That leaves you out. Now I know why you are so against the Republicans. They would not let you in. And by the way I am a true right person who doe's not think he is a drunk. I would not blame him if he was haveing to put up with the dems he has had to be around.

You are no member of the Party. We only want American who can work and think and provide for themselfs.

Selfs? Looks like you could use a little home work yourself.

Selfs? Looks like you could use a little home work yourself.

Devie,

Were you able to decipher WTF he just said? Cause I sure couldn't!

Twits and nitwits.

Thats all the left has.

rukidding47 - and yet they are all HEADS ABOVE YOU!!!!

Hey Bob --- is "moonbat" the new word for this week? You've used it in at least 10 messages over the lasts 2 days. Remember Spiro Agnew? He used to come up with the word of the week.

Fiesty...your conceded attitude is only preceded by your blindness following the koolaid bridgade. too bad if your good looking then it wouldn't matter but lose some and then lose some more.

too bad if your good looking

Therein lies YOUR problem little buddy, you continue think with your little head! lol

Well regardless of what the Mainstream media and GOP would like you to beleive, he does not have 1144 delegates yet.

96ws6

Fair point, well made!

96,

He just got superdelegate Boehner's vote. Romney will roll into Tampa with all the delegates he needs. There are some big primaries coming up with good old Utah rounding out the season in June.

The minor question is whats up with Santorum,Gingrich, and Paul?

Northstar,

Don't count your chickens before they hatch most Santoruum suppoerter are supporting Ron Paul because everyone knows Mitt is not conservative. However, I admit Romney probably WILL win with all the fraud the GOP is pulling for him.

I like this guy because he really explains what's going on but you can find countless other sources.

The minor question is whats up with Santorum,Gingrich, and Paul?

You will have to dig to answer that question becuase of the media blackout and that fact that there is media bias and blackout shows that you really should try to answer your own question. BTW do you really think that a candidate that they have to cheat to give the nomination to can beat Obama?

96,

My question was rhetorical.

I know Paul has a following of true believers, and so does Santorum. but they part company when it comes to social/religious issues..

As a liberal Democrat, I think that it will be a closer election than 2008, but Obama will win.

My GOP moderate friends here in MN are turned off by Romney's pandering to the extremism in the party, the GOP attempt to strip mine women's choices about their health care and his "neocon" leading attitudes in foreign affairs.

And of course he will endorse him after it is clear there is no other winner! How else would he seem prescient? Hindsight is always 20/20.

If Boehner was really any kind of political genius, why didn't he endorse the winner before he was a clear winner?

It doesn't matter! I live in Boehner's home state - Ohio. I strongly suspect Boehner will not be serving next term! Don't believe me? Check the polls!

of what DA?

rukidding47 - he should be convicted of impersonating a live human being with a brain.

He should be convicted of hypocrisy! I mean, there we were, with a deal that might mean a $4T reduction in the debt over 10 years,k and Boehner couldn't deliver his party! But all I hear from Republicans is how Obama is not a leader! Boehner had the chance, Boehner had the power, and Boehner couldn't deliver! LOSER!

Boehner is up for re-election this fall. I live in his home state: Ohio. I hear it all; Boehner is history!

With that fake tan, Boehner looks like an overgrown oompa-loompa...

You must not understand our political process. Boehner has stated on several occasions he would let the American people make the decision who they wanted as the republican candidate and now that it's clear Romney is the one, he's ready to back him because that's what the American people who voted in primaries want. Gee a politician who understands how democracy works.

Understand that i say this as one who's been a leftie from probably before you were born...that's uncalled for.

Thanks, Rick. Only way to prove you are of any intelligence is to refrain from using mindless insults to make another party look bad.

and that's coming from the left side as well.

Polls are totally useless right now, they mean zipola

Big Trouble- Grow up. I'm sooo tired of hearing immature comments. Democrats call Republican's racists and Republican's call Democrats socialists. Are we ever going to get past these stereotypical comments?

A Bob we can trust! :)

We refer to her as "The Dingleberry of the 6th".

ruken,

Perfect description! LOL

Dontchaknow... She's waiting for that VP call!

lol!

I'm confused, is that the election year or Rons age?

Oh my gosh - THAT was funny!!

fuzzy44

If Cheney goes along somebody is getting shot.

No and he didn't stutter and stammer and say um um um ah umm umm while looking at his feet either.

Yeah, he just looked like an overgown oompa-loompa with his fake tan.

1Hiram - there's a good chance he'll actually vote for Obama - just can't publicly endorse him. You never know what happens in those voting booths!

And the world is flat, right Kurt?

Nope, tryr, but if that is what you believe, it is your right. You have a problem with what Obama's OWN Lawyer stated?

That's a far right-wing website, LOL. You actually believe that. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Did you read my post? "actually all the Media Elite", that includes Faux News. ALL the Media Elite is ignoring that we have a Ursuper occupying the Oval Office. Are you naive enough to assume if it is "not reported" then it must not exist?

As for "websites", you can label as any bird parts, that fact remains, Obama's OWN Lawyer admitted Obama's BC is a fake. Just because the Media Elite including Fox News AND MSNBC ignores to cover this, does not mean it didn't happen. You are SO Gaulible to the Media Elite

The birth Certificate was released AGAIN last year, Where you been, A COMMA?

LOL, Tryr, Obama's Lawyer stated the ONE released last year (April 27th) was a fake as with 100's of Adobe Software Experts. Try to get some insight BEYOND the Media Elite for once.

I'm not wasting my time with an imbecile, GOOGLE IT.

American Vision News is run by radical evangelist Gary Demar. He believes that homosexuality is a capital offense, and "sodomites will be executed under a reconstructed government."

You really want to quote a hate group?

Kurt

USURPER= To seize and hold (the power or rights of another, for example) by force or without legal authority.

You must be thinking of Bush and the usurping by the Supreme Court giving him the election.

Like Bush or not, didn't care much for that Big Government Republican, he won the Presidency the SAME way as all Presidents except for Washington, via the Electoral College. Obama also won by the same way, the difference, he was not qualified as intended by our Founding Fathers that a Natural Born Citizen is someone born to two (both) parents who are already Citizens at the time of the Child's birth and that child born after the ratification of the US Constitution in 1787. Obama, rather than taking the honorable way of starting a Constitutional Admendment process of Natural Born Citizen, instead became an Usurper illegally occuping the Oval Office. As for you Republicans, this ALSO applies to Rubio, if you choose to defy the Supreme Law of the Land and select Rubia as VP, the US Constitution requiurement of Natural Born Citizen is NOT met, as BOTH parents were not yet US Citizens at the time of Rubio's birth. So this is NOT about Democratic or Republican politics, this is about upholding the US Constitution.

Kurt - please! You DO KNOW how totally idiotic you are when you spout the "birth certificate," nonsense, don't you????? Please you're just embarrassing yourself. And, you're wrong about the citizenship. It has always been that one parent has to be a US citizen - not both. President Obama won by both the popular vote and the electorial college.

You really need to study the constitution as you have no knowledge of it at all.

And, experts confirmed the authenticity of President Obama's birth certificate. Even the Republican governor of Hawaii said it is real. But, you go ahead with your delusions.

O.M.G. Kurt.

What are you smoking?

Of course, if not reported by the Media Elite, it has to be "totally idiotic" or must be "smoking" something. Don't be afraid to look beyond the narrow scope of political correctness propangandize by the Media Elite. Be Independent and Objective, not just what the Media Elite feds you. Study your 18th Century History to get the TRUE intention of the Founding Fathers meaning of "Natural Born Citizen", you might learn something that the Media Elite chooses to ignore. Wish all the best, seek the truth rather than just what the Media Elite reports to you.

Obama’s lawyer, Alexandra Hill, admitted that the image of Obama’s birth certificate was a forgery and made the absurd claim that, therefore, it cannot be used as evidence to confirm his lack of natural born citizenship status. Therefore, she argued, it is “irrelevant to his placement on the ballot”. Hill went on to contort reasoning by implying that Obama needs only invoke his political popularity, not legal qualifications, in order to be a candidate.
So we have one more instance of the high and mighty thinking that the law does not apply to them, it is only written for the little people.
At the hearing, attorney for the plaintiffs, Mario Apuzzo, correctly argued that Obama, under the Constitution, has to be a “natural born Citizen” and that he has not met his burden of showing that he is eligible to be on the New Jersey primary ballot by showing that he is indeed a “natural born Citizen.” He argued that Obama has shown no authenticate evidence to the New Jersey Secretary of State demonstrating who he is and that he was born in the United States. Apuzzo also argued that as a matter of law, Obama is not a “natural born Citizen” because he was born to a father who was not a U.S. citizen.

If FOX news isn't reporting it then how can it be true?!?!!?????? Geesh.

Stay focused, what does this have to do with the subject.

Kurt - not a word you've written is true. Don't you realize people on this post know you are just spouting lies? How sad you have to stoop to that level!

Kurt, in a nutshell (your place of residence), Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on August 4, 1961.

It's a stone cold fact.

Anyone who is born on U.S. soil is automatically a U.S. citizen. That includes U.S. territories like Guam. Hawaii is a U.S. state.

Deal with it.

How can anyone believe anything "reported" on Fox tv? I wouldn't trust anyone who illegally hacked into my cell phone.

But President Obama WAS born on U.S. soil to a woman who WAS a U.S. citizen...making President Obama a natural born U.S. citizen. Sorry, Kurt, one's citizenship does not revolve solely around the father.

Do you have a actual transcript from this "hearing", or are you simply relying on a RWNJ website that cites a "report" from TeaPartyTribune.com as further "proof"?

Yeah...AmericanVisionNews.com and TeaPartyTribune.com - not the sources I'd choose if I wanted the facts.

It's a stone cold fact.

But teatards HATE facts. And they seem to think if they repeat a lie often enough that it will somehow transform into a fact.

Hate to break the truth to you guys, I know you can not accept it. Please review your 18th Century history, you are confusing a Citizen with a "Natural Born Citizen". Remember not all Citizens are Natural Born Citizens. The fact is as intended by our Founding Fathers, the actual writers of the US Constitution, a natural born citizen is that BOTH parents must be US Citizens at the time of the child's birth if born after the ratification of the US Constitution in 1787. This Natural Born Citizen meaning is backed up by Supreme Court Cases US vs Wong Kim Ark in 1898 and Perkins vs Elg in 1939.

Simply put, being born of a Foreign Parent even if BHO were to have been born in The Capitol Building during a Joint Session of Congress on a 4th of July he'd still NEVER have any possibility of being a "natural born citizen" as required by the U.S. Constitution.

A litte 18th History Lesson on this subject > The term natural born citizen was first codified in the legal reference book "Law of Nations" in 1758, of which was used by John Jay who later became the first Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. John Jay considered the outstanding legal scholar of his time had the "natural born citizen" clause inserted into the U.S. Constitution via a letter he wrote to George Washington, the leader of the Constitutional Convention

"O.M.G. Kurt.

What are you smoking?"

As my late father used to say -- don't wast your time arguing with a crazy man.

Those who think beyond what the Media Elite tells you does appear to be "crazy", I understand. Go ahead, learn your 18th Century History, you actually may learn the difference between a "Citizen" and a "Natural Born Citizen". If it was ONLY Citizenship requirement to become US President or VP, the Constitution would state "citizen" instead of "Natural Born Citizen"

Minor v. Happersett (1874) 21 Wall. 162, 166-168
'At common law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country, of parents (plural) who were its citizens (plural), became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners. Some authorities go further, and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction, without reference to the citizenship of their parents. As to this class there have been doubts, but never as to the first. For the purposes of this case, it is not necessary to solve these doubts. It is sufficient, for everything we have now to consider, that all children, born of citizen parents (plural), within the jurisdiction, are themselves citizens.' "Minor v. Happersett (1874) 21 Wall. 162, 166-168.

U. S. v Wong Kim Ark (1898) , the court thoroughly discussed "natural born citizen," and Justice Gray quoted from Minor v. Happersett
The cases importance is that it is the first case decided by the Supreme Court that attempts to explain the meaning of "natural born citizen" under Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of the U.S. Constitution. Natural born citizen is similar to the meaning of what a natural born subject is under Common Law in England and why the framers specifically included a grandfather clause (natural born Citizen OR a Citizen of the United States, at the time of adoption of this Constitution) as the founding fathers needed to grandfather clause themselves in, in order to be president because they were British subjects. The holding in U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark states that Wong Kim Ark is a native born citizen and NOT natural born. If you look at the fact of Wong Kim Ark being born in San Francisco, CA, of foreign (Chinese) parents, therefore was not 'natural born'.

Perkins v. Elg's (1939) importance is that it actually gives examples of what a "natural born citizen" of the U.S. is; what a "citizen" of the U.S. is; and what a "native born citizen" of the U. S.
In this case, the U. S. Supreme Court decided the same as in prior case law that a "natural born citizen" is a person who is born of two U.S. citizen parents (plural) AND born in the mainland of U.S.

Citizen: On cross appeals, the Court of Appeals affirmed the decree, 69 App.D.C. 175, 99 F.2d 408. Certiorari was granted, December 5, 1938, 305 U.S. 591, 59 S.Ct. 245, 83 L.Ed. --. First.-- On her birth in New York, the plaintiff became a citizen of the United States. Civil Rights Act of 1866: Ms. Elg was found to be a "citizen" because she was born in the mainland USA (New York)

According to the radical, left-wing, liberal, commie website referred to as Wikipedia:

"The Constitution does not define the phrase natural-born citizen"

and

"The Congressional Research Service has stated that the weight of scholarly legal and historical opinion indicates that the term means one who is entitled under the Constitution or laws of the United States to U.S. citizenship "at birth" or "by birth," including any child born "in" the United States, even to alien parents (other than to foreign diplomats serving their country), the children of United States citizens born abroad, and those born abroad of one citizen parent who has met U.S. residency requirements."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural-born-citizen_clause

You chose to cite some interesting cases:

United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that virtually everyone born in the United States is a U.S. citizen. This decision established an important precedent in its interpretation of the Citizenship Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Wong_Kim_Ark

and

Perkins v. Elg, 307 U.S. 325 (1939), was a decision by the Supreme Court of the United States that a child born in the United States to naturalized parents on U.S. soil is a natural born citizen and that the child's natural born citizenship is not lost if the child is taken to and raised in the country of the parents' origin, provided that upon attaining the age of majority, the child elects to retain U.S. citizenship "and to return to the United States to assume its duties."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perkins_v._Elg

Hmmm...any other cases you'd like to cite?

Should you ever decide to remove your aluminum foil hat, please - remember to recycle.

The Perkins and Elg's (1939) Supreme Court case in detail regarding Natural Born Citizen

Natural Born Citizen: U. S. Supreme Court's Relevant Facts: Miss Elg was born in Brooklyn, New York, on October 2, 1907. Her parents, who were natives of Sweden, emigrated to the United States sometime prior to 1906 and her father was naturalized here in that year. In 1911, her mother took her to Sweden where she continued to reside until September 7, 1929. Her father went to Sweden in 1922 and has not since returned to the United States. In November, 1934, he made a statement before an American consul in Sweden that he had voluntarily expatriated himself for the reason that he did not desire to retain the status of an American citizen and wished to preserve his allegiance to Sweden. [Perkins v. Elg, 307 U.S. 325, 327 (1939).]
U. S. Supreme Court's Holding: The court below, properly recognizing the existence of an actual controversy with the defendants (Aetna Life Ins. Co. v. Haworth, 300 U.S. 227, 57 S.Ct. 461, 81 L.Ed. 617, 108 A.L.R. 1000) declared Miss Elg 'to be a natural born citizen of the United States' (99 F.2d 414) and we think that the decree should include the Secretary of State as well as the other defendants. [Perkins v. Elg, 307 U.S. 325, 350 (1939).]

Rationale of the logic is as follows: The U. S. Supreme Court in 1939 held that Elg was a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN because she was born in Brooklyn, New York on October 2, 1907, her father was naturalized as a U.S. citizen in 1906 under the Naturalization Act of 1906, and her mother derived her US citizenship in 1907 under the Expatriation Act of 1907 (federal statute) as proof, and being that, Elg was born prior to the 19th Amendment, ratified on August 18, 1920, her status was still tied to that of her husband.
Ms. Elg was found to be a "natural born citizen" because she was born in the mainland USA (New York) of TWO US citizen parents. (plural)

Look beyond the generalized facts of Wikipedia into the ACTUAL details of the case :)

Bill in Portland - using logic, reason, facts, etc., does not work with Kurt. He lives in his own world where anything he cites is the only fact. He doesn't care that absolutely all sane individuals have given up the "President Obama is not a citizen" crap. He lives in never-never land and likes it that way.

A person can be a "citizen" under the following circumstances:
1) Person was born of one citizen parent (Obama), or
2) Person was born in the US mainland ("anchor babies"), or
3) Person was naturalized (like Arnold Schwarzenegger, who most know is not eligible for President).

To be a "Natural Born Citizen" one must be born to TWO (both) parents who are already US Citizens at the time of the Childs birth and born after the ratification of the US Constitution in 1787

To be a "Natural Born Citizen" is much more stricter than to be just a "citizen". To Seeking, I never said Obama is NOT a citizen, I stated he is NOT a Natural Born Citizen. If you knew the difference, you would understand.

As I quoted above:

Perkins v. Elg, 307 U.S. 325 (1939), was a decision by the Supreme Court of the United States that a child born in the United States to naturalized parents on U.S. soil is a natural born citizen

How does this apply to President Obama? The case is clearly based on naturalized parents, whereas President Obama's mother was a natural-born citizen herself, not a naturalized citizen. You're citing a case that has no relevance to your argument.

Perhaps the distinction between "naturalized" and "natural-born" is a bit too subtle for you to understand how that would affect the situation.

don't feed the troll

"To be a "Natural Born Citizen" one must be born to TWO (both) parents who are already US Citizens at the time of the Childs birth and born after the ratification of the US Constitution in 1787"

Proof? Citation? Court case that definitively addresses the requirement that BOTH parents must be U.S. citizens?

Tick-tock...

Tick-tock...

Tick-tock...

Still waiting, Kurt.

don't feed the troll

Amen to that!

Maybe if we leave him alone the medication will finally kick in...

Will you l@@kee here - we got us a real live birther!

O.M.G. Kurt.

What are you smoking?

Glen Beck's penis,perhaps?

When the truth is spoken you attack the messenger. You all are forgiven for it take understanding of 18th Century history to understand when the Founding Fathers were writing the US Constitution in 1787. Check out the Legal Reference Book "Law of Nations" in 1758. This is where our Founding Fathers took the term Natural Born Citizen from. Of course, you can come up with your own Politically Correct Revisionist History on the definition of Natural Born Citizen. I stuck with the Supreme Law of the Law, the US Constitution as intended by our Founding Fathers unless the proper Admendment procedures to the US Constitution are completed.

I have consistently attacked the message, not the messenger.

The U.S. Constitution does not define the meaning of natural born citizen - as I indicated in my very first post. That leaves it up to the courts to define. I have asked you to offer any proof that the courts have rendered a decision that would unambiguously define "natural born citizen" to the point where President Obama could be declared as ineligible.

I have asked - and you have failed. That's not an attack on YOU - while you may take failure personally, it's evident that you have no basis for claiming that President Obama is NOT a natural born citizen. By extension, your claims of forgery and the committing of felonies are equally baseless.

Provide the proof, or STFU.

(Although you'll probably claim your rights to free speech and continue to spout your drivel - no problem, it's easy enough to put you on "ignore".)

"That leaves it up to the courts to define", it is already defined in the "Law of Nations" from 1758. Remember, the Constitution writers are in the 18th Century. Constitutional Scholars know that the Founding Fathers took the definition from the Law of Nations meaning to be a Natural BOrn Citizen, you must be born to TWO (BOTH) parents who are already Citizens at the time of the child's birth. THis has to do with Constitutional Law, NOT Democratic or Republican politics as if Rubio would become the VP candidate, he too would not be Natural Born Citizen. Defending the US Constitution over partisan politics.

Kurt At least you an spell usurper now... BTW with your logic Willard Mitt Romney whose DADDY George was born in MEXICO... is NOT eligible to be POTUS.

Have you noticed the TOTAL MSNBC blackout (actually all the Media Elite) regarding Obama's OWN Lawyer, Alexandra Hill, who has admitted that Obama's Birth Certificate released last April 27th was a forgery?

more birther crap! How about, instead of this birther crap, which has been disproven time and again, Republicans actually offer a plan, any plan to increase JOBS in this economy?

Nope, ain't there! Other than the "Ryan plan", which promises to balance the budget by 2040! Sorry, it only took a Republican regime 8 years to destroy the economy, why the hell should it take 28 years to restore it?

Thanks, but no thanks! Republicans had their chance with Bush and majorities in both houses of congress for 8 years. What did we get? Double the national debt, an economy in the toilet and Halliburton richer than ever! Why in the hell should I vote Republican again?

Barack Obama's American genealogy can be traced back to a French ancestor, Mareen Duvall, who emigrated to Maryland in 1650.

Known as "The Emigrant", his notable descendants include U.S. Presidents Harry S. Truman and Barack Obama, American Vice-President Dick Cheney, Wallis Simpson (for whom Edward VIII gave up the throne), and actor Robert Duvall.

Other descendants include U.S. Associate Supreme Court Justice Gabriel Duvall, billionaire Warren Buffett, and Confederate spy Betty Duvall.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mareen_Duvall

All Americans are immigrants somewhere down the line. Even the Native Americans came here from somewhere else.

Where is the 'birther' outrage over John McCain, who was born in Panama?

Ever notice how when Republicans don't like the truth, they just make up stories?

ask obama where the jobs are

"ask obama where the jobs are"

• Job losses per month in January 2008: 700,000
• Job gains last month: 120,000
• 25 straight months of private sector gob growth

Hey -- ask crying speaker Tan Man where the jobs bills are. He ran on jobs, jobs, jobs.

i would not talk about time on the golf course if i were you big ears has more time on thr golf than any pres ever

only becaus Dubya didn't play as much golf. 1,000 vacation days, look it up. Thats right, I forgot about your allergy to facts. try this:

http://www.factcheck.org/2010/01/president-obamas-vacation-days/

Nice speech, Mr. Weeper. :)

jockland - big ears? Were you out playing golf???

We could only wish Bush and his fellow Republicans spent more time playing golf and less time "managing" the economy! From politifact:

First we compiled the numbers for Bush's last three months. Between October and November, 597,000 jobs were lost; between November and December, 681,000 were lost; and between December and January, 741,000 were lost.

Ooooh...what about a Mittens/Brewer ticket?

That's a sure loser.

Mitt could pander to the female vote and the crazy old beeyotch vote at the same time.

do not discount the Oompa Loompa vote, they are a proud minority. He also has the Android-American vote wrapped up.

Hey, maybe Mitt will get snooky to run on his ticket, then he can have the "hard working" womans vote.

Ever wonder how disturbed you are in your socialism because you feel entightled to think that everyone will yield to your words just because your last name is parent and that all parents who do not have the last name of parent but are parents should become your subjects in your empire?

Won't happen. This is reality not a literal construct that the Warkowskies have created.

ObamaRomneycare?

No.

JEP only if you are deaf and have tinitus, then all you hear is ringing

Joseph E. Parent - if you are totally lacking a brain, it does indeed have a good ring - I imagine.

The Master Boehner has thrown his considerable weight behind the Mittster, now the world will be safe for the Banksters, the Hedge Fund and Credit Default Swappers, and guys that linger a little too long in airport restrooms.

I was OK with Romney until he suggested Ted Nugent as a possible running mate, or Secretary of Health and Welfare.

Tis the Season. Well, that was original at least. Tinitus huh. LOL
