Subscribe to RSSA new Kaiser Foundation finds people think President Obama would be better for women than Mitt Romney on a host of issues, including who's looking out for their best interests, who'd be best to deal with the future of the health-care law, education, and even national security.
But the one place where Obama doesn't enjoy big leads is on the federal deficit.
On who looks out for the best interests of women, Obama leads 52-26%. Among women voters, it's 59-25%. But on who's best to deal with the deficit, Obama and Romney are essentially tied, with Obama getting the narrow edge, 40-39%, hardly a good sign for an incumbent president.
That vulnerability is one reason the Romney campaign has been pushing the issue. Even on jobs and the economy, President Obama has a 10-point lead.
Here's the question from the poll:
7. Which presidential candidate, (Barack Obama) or (Mitt Romney), do you trust to do a better job (INSERT AND RANDOMIZE)? How about
(NEXT ITEM)? (ROTATE OPTIONS IN PARENTHESES ACROSS INTERVIEWS, BUT NOT WITHIN SAME INTERVIEW) [READ IF NECESSARY: Do
you trust (Barack Obama) or (Mitt Romney) to do a better job (INSERT ITEM)?]
Based on half sample A (n=613)
Obama Romney Both Neither/other Don’t know/refused
a. Dealing with the future of the 2010 health care law 50 31 1 10 8
b. Making decisions about women’s reproductive
health choices and services 52 25 1 14 8
c. Looking out for the best interests of women 56 26 2 10 6
d. Dealing with the federal budget deficit 40 39 1 11 9
e. Improving education 53 27 3 10 7
f. Dealing with the economy and jobs 48 38 1 9 4
g. Dealing with the situation in Afghanistan 50 28 2 12 8
h. Addressing terrorism 50 30 4 10 6

Wait until the average everyday American gets a look at what Willard's plans are for women!
Women will come running to President Obama in droves...
If I wanted politicians to intrude into my body, I would sleep with one!
Warning sign: The media aids and abates the rwnj dishonest talking points on the economy!
After the debacle we went through with the debt ceiling and the Republicans along with Tea baggers how could the media and and anyone trust these bloviating, lying, ignoramouesterrorist who act like ?
Feisty and Beverly, as we all know, intelligent women are looking past Romney's weak attempts to convince us he is "for" women in any way. He has shown through all of his campaign he believes that women are nothing more than 2nd citizens and should be treated as such.
When President Obama campaigns more and more women show up. We are not impressed with trinkets like the Romney campaign thinks they can toss out to appease female voters. And, the young college age women will turn against him and the conservative movement in droves.

edit: the Tea Party and GOP act who act like ignoramuses and terrorist?
Remember his advisor on all things women is his wife, Ann! lol
Because she is just so in touch with the challenges ordinary working women face everyday!

How is it not only women are groping to be close to our President, shake his hand, or get his autograph. People fall asleep when the wooden Mitt speaks.
There are scenes of some amusement on the steps outside the Massachusetts state house, as Romney campaigners and supporters try to squat on the site of the Obama campaign’s press conference scheduled to start shortly.

I'd say this poll looks like dire news for The Mittster.
How badly does he want to be president anyway? He kind of acts like he could take it or leave it, which might be his way of preparing himself for an epic loss in November.
Bring it on!
OBAMA/BIDEN 2012
This is one woman that will not be running back to President Obama. I forgot woman like me that are not lol (Liberal left of left) have no brains are stupid do not know what we do, we stay at home (really laughing at that one)------- BUT OUR VOTE COUNTS AS MUCH AS YOURS.
BUT OUR VOTE COUNTS AS MUCH AS YOURS.
To bad there's not that many of you......
Obama/Biden 2012
Obama is only good for you if you are entitled or a member of a union or an investment bankster. What has he done for woman?
So tell us Gutter Queen, what is the Romney plan for women that you speak of? Please show the details.
Huey, It doesn't matter what his plans are. He's not going to get a chance to utilize them, if he does have any.
Obama/Biden 2012
Obama has done nothing for women or anyone else that is not part of a union or a crony that helped him get elected. Obama does nothing more then talk a good game, which seems to be more then enough for his supporters. This contrived war on women conjured up by Obama is nothing more then an affirmative action moment where women are just trying to grab while the grabbing is good. Let everyone else pay for what a few women think all women should have for free. Obama is if nothing else, one of the all time great panderers. Yes we can is now why we couldn't and the excuses are endless. Other then hatred, division, blame, and partisanship Obama has nothing positive to offer, or he would.
Keep distracting and hope something sticks MSNBC. This false woman support is just that false. Romney wins this election because of the economy. Not you fake war on women, or any other fake war you make up.
Obama - ladies' man
GT,
Gutter Queen? You talk to a woman like that then turnaround and speak of women rights.
Romney wins this election because of the economy
Romney's already dead in the water, he's finished. Go home little boy, and practice up for 2016.
Obama/Biden 2012
Theotas -
Hey numb-nutts, Re-read my post. I was rebutting Huey's statement......Jeez...
GT,
I apologize. Numb-nutss was not necessary.
Theotas - I apologize for the remark
The war on women may not be Romneys plan but Jan Brewer and the other tea party legislatures are making it very real. Rick you are an idiot if you think women aren't watching what the republicans are doing to deny us our rights in states. There is no reason for a woman to trust republicans at this point. They have put the pedophile corrupt Catholic vaticans views above womens rights.
Thanks I will NOT vote for another republican until the idiot tea party is gone.
Republicans are doing back flips to deny THEIR war on women. It won't work in the end. I also won't vote republican until they get off the misogynist crazy train.
GT lives in the Obama fair tale that he will save the world. Or maybe GT actually believes he already has? Regardless of GT's insanity. Obama is finished.
Get use to saying President Romney.
The Planned Parenthood ad that quotes Romney on repealing Planned Parenthood, Roe v. Wade, stalling about the Lilly Ledbetter Act for equal pay, etc. is awesome. Women need to be reminded time and again about the Teapublican War on Women.
Unfortunately, conservative women like Ann Romney who are married, suburban, often stay-home mothers, who have a husband that provides for them -- Who lack empathy for their sisters who are bread winners with no income from a husband, no life insurance for retirement, who are discriminated against with higher health care costs, lower pay, who therefore do worry about unplanned pregnancies and safety nets like Social Security, Medicare, unemployment, etc. How do you get through to conservative women to fight for women's rights for other women--maybe a sister, a daughter even? Clearly they have been socialized from birth by churches run by men. Gagh!
Beverly in Chicago -- the Urban Dictionary term of Teahadist is what you're looking for. Jon Stewart also did a joke about the "c" word and "n" word having a baby = "socialist." Ain't that the truth with the far-Right extremists these days?
Who was the last Republican President to lower the growth of the deficit? Who was the last Repulican President to have a surplus? Mittens isn't even really pretending that he will lower the deficit. If you look back at Reagan, Bush Sr, Clinton, and Jr....who had the smallest deficits relative to GDP? Why do people constantly think that "Deficits don't matter" Repulicans will lower the deficit once in office?
LOL....
Even the Liberals are calling other Liberal posters NAMES on this thread:
Gotta love that one.
I see the Obamamites are on the ObamaWagon going over the cliff.
Keep up the great work you GUYS !!!
I see the Obamamites are on the ObamaWagon going over the cliff.
IDO - If Obama's going over the cliff, "Mitt the Unfit" hit bottom a long time ago.
As far as Theotas; Sometimes a friendly fire incident is inevittable in the heat of battle. LOL
GT lives in the Obama fair tale that he will save the world.
Devo - You're dreamin!
I like your avatar though. It looks like a Republican got stuck up his ass, and the donkey is reaching in to pull him out
FRH - What are "Willard's plans are for women?"
More BS sensationalism from the Dem troll.
Firstly, the War on Women isn't something Obama came out with. As far as I can tell, it came out of the blogosphere in reaction to the horribly egregious legislation coming out of state legislatures, i.e.:
Texas attempting to shoulder Planned Parenthood out of its role as a primary care facilitator for poor women.
South Dakota and other states leading the way by proposing legislature to legally allow killing abortion doctors.
Personhood Amendments attempting to define life as beginning at conception (in one place, even earlier), and some places even proposing filing death certificates for miscarriages/abortions and possibly even attempting to investigate miscarriages to ensure no "foul play."
Forcing women in many states, like Texas and Virginia, to go through more hoops and hurdles to obtain what is still an ostensibly legal procedure.
Aside from all these "legal" hurdles, they have made many places so much more hostile to abortion providers that women have to travel for hours just to see a provider. This de facto discrimination puts undo burden on both women and health care providers for what should be a medical decision not involving the state.
So yeah, you guys can take your "there ain't no war on women, it's just a PR gimmick" attitudes and shove them right up your asses. With an ultrasound probe.

My God, Domenico,
Obama trounces Romney in every question in the poll except on the debt, with which he ties Romney and your headline is: Obama seen as best for women, but warning signs on deficit in new poll
50% of women prefer President Obama's handling of Afghanistan vs 28% preferring Romney's plans!
I can think of numerous more accurate headlines you could have written, for instance:
President Obama preferred by women on social issues, foreign policy and handling the economy
Women more confident in President Obama's abilities than in Romney's
Women to Romney: Drop Dead!
Point being, though, that, yes, there are these positives and yet there is a stark drop off on deficit, which is why Romney camp is pushing that issue. Economy, jobs, debt, deficit are central issues.
That's okay...the GOP has a plan...
Gov. Scott to Florida Voters: "Drop dead!"
Yes Domenico, that is "a" point, but hardly the main message to be derived from the survey, as your headline might suggest. Not to be too much of a conspiracist, but stop trying to make every survey and bit of news into some kind of drama, as news outlets tend to want to!!
Da Noid
I've been waiting to catch you online. Congats on getting your question answere in the Boiler Room.
I just realized, this isn't just a poll of women, this is men and women, who prefer Obama's approach to social issues, foreign policy and job-creation, over Romney's.
Given that Democrats have an edge with women, and this poll isn't just women, aren't these results HUGE? I suppose, what you are trying to say is, the Romney campaign is going for the only opening they can see...?
True, Domenico, but let's not ignore the source of the current U.S. budget deficit: two unfunded wars and a tax cut, courtesy of George W. Bush.
The issue now is recovery, and Obama's policies are moving the country in the right direction, slowly but surely.
Romney was asked
"A whole passel" of elements??? Who is Mittens pandering to now, the Appalachian voter who eats possum stew?
The economy gets better every day under Obama's leadership.
Romney doesn't have an answer as to what he, in his wisdom, would do to turn the economy around.
the Romney campaign is going for the only opening they can see...?
Amy, That sounds like a vaginal probe comment. "LOL"
ok, that was the funniest post today.
Domenico - your headline IS way off! The percentages you post aren't close to the headline. What gives?
Amy, the Obama media machine constantly misrepresents Republicans and Romney about women, so why wouldn't Hussein trounce Romney?
Colorado-Man, I totally agree. The Obama media machine keeps letting Romney and his followers speak! Clearly they are in Obama's pocket. Romney made it clear that Bain is off the table, his time as governor is off limits, and don't even mention the dog. But these left wing media people continually ask questions about it. Seems so unfair.
Colorado : President Obama's media machine has NOTHING to do with how I feel about the Republican party. They do NOT represent me, my beliefs, my values, etc. and they NEVER will.
Any woman who votes Republican is voting against herself. Any middleclass American that votes Republican is voting against their best interests. Any gay American that votes Republican is voting against their best interests. Anyone collecting government benefits that votes Republican is voting against their best interests. I'm not interested in helping rich people. They dont need my help. I'm not interested in supporting wars & death. I'm interested in MY rights & the rights of WE THE PEOPLE. (Single women with children, Veterans, the elderly on Social Security & Medicare, the working middle class, the poor, the homeless, the mentally ill, etc, etc) I believe in my heart that this is what God wants- to help those less fortunate. Republicans have always cut social welfare programs and they always will. Republicans have always supported the rich & they always will. NO THANKS.
Any woman that votes for a republican is a darn fool. It's like a chicken rooting for Col. Sanders.
There are many women who would say just the opposite.
Nolimit - Not according to these polls..
How narrow minded of you, do you respect your fellow citizen much Job1?
I do. However, many republicans don't respect our female citizens.
Republicans only view women for their uterus, past that we are useless. They need us to make more babies to raise to kill in their wars.
Yeah, with respect like that...
Having effectively banned the right to choose on the state level, having attacked the country's biggest women's health care provider because they refuse to bow to their odious and condescending demands, having fought to keep women's preventative care from being covered by insurance (calling women who use contraceptives 'sluts' along the way), having fought against equal pay for equal work, having forced doctors by law to lie to their female patients about an imagined link between abortion and breast cancer, having decreed the government 'wand of truth' be inserted into the vaginas of any woman who would dare to demand the freedom granted them by the Constitution, just to name a few recent items...
I have to ask the women here: can you handle any more republican respect? Might need to break out the lube.
hueydriver9id - with respect like the Republican party gives women who needs degradation? What news shows have you been watching. The GOP has done everything they can to disrespect women - starting with the panel on women's health issues which didn't have any women. Are you nuts? You actually think intelligent women will vote GOP? Not on your life!
You are so correct.......
Have any of you watched the $10 Million ad being pushed by Rove & Co to deflect and sway Women Voters?
It is the most disgusting and demeaning latest assault on "that women are dumb enough to believe"
Hey ladies - we know you voted for Obama because he has a "nice voice and is an attractive man"
However wait until you're old and grey, he has failed you!
Yeah sure, I'm so stupid that I would fall for a pretty face and a nice voice - not research or check out the issues, not follow your assaults on Planned Parenthood, not want equal pay for women and not know about "the Ledbetter Act" that Obama signed his first day in office - which by the way Great Brittain instituted an "EQUAL PAY" act in 1964
Yeah - I'm just a "stupid broad" that I would fall for this - SICKENING AD of yours
Keep it up Rove - who was in your focus panel Stepford Wives and Catholic Bishops
I'm voting for President Obama because I am a Democrat-however-he IS attractive, the man has class & he can sing Al Green anytime he wants to...................
Hmmm let's see.... huge numbers of women unemployed since Obozo took over.. yeah, he's a ladies man all right.... he's a jying thieving parasite that needs to be sent back to Illinois....
Lets give "Mitt the Unfit" some credit here. He is leading big in the "Birther polls"!
It looks like the RWNJ's are having a 'cut and paste party' over in that last article. None of it has anything to with the article, but their going to town anyway. A bunch of weirdo blog material must of hit the web.
I wanna hear what kind of spin they can lay out regarding the women's vote. LOL
Obama/Biden 2012
It is graduation season after all!
Good to see the little guys finally got their diploma from; "Cut & Paste U" after 5 or so years!
Maybe their Mamma's will paint their basements as a gift?
Lets give "Mitt the Unfit" some credit here. He is leading big in the "Birther polls"!
I forget. He's also leading heavily in the polls with "Bloviating Ignoramuses"
Hi Feisty, They must be graduating from "Toothless U." and "The Jethro Bodine School of Brain Surgery"..
Must be quite an honor....
You forgot the Sarah Palin Pole Dancing community college course
No one can lube up the pale, male & stale 'poles'... like Bible Spice can! ;o)
No one can lube up the pale, male & stale 'poles'... like Bible Spice can! ;o)
"LOL"
Mitt won't repudiate Rush, or Trump or Ted Nugent or any of the other crazies on the far right. This is because he wants to attract all possible voters and that includes the bigots, women haters, birthers, gun lovers, bigots, religious nuts and any other faction of the lunatic fringe of the Republican party. Should the horrible come to pass and he is elected, I sincerely hope these folks don't expect much out of Romney because he will be unable to deliver. He will take care of his own - rich white guys.
It is what we call family values. It appears that women aren't stupid (I never thought they were) as some rwnj think they are. Barefoot and pregnant doesn't work any more. We don't play "Leave It To Beaver" any more. Actually June Cleaver would probably be for Obama too. Few elections have had as much consequences for women since they could start voting in 1920. I hope the ladies turn out in droves this election. Women know REAL values when they see them.
Strange that if you have a household budget greater than the average annual income and you chose to be a stay at home mom you're a heroine. But, if you're a single mom forced to stay home because there's no way to get babysitting you're a lazy slut with no pride.

Why do you folks bother paying attention to polls anyhow? They are all BS, change on a daily basis and are biased. BTW this post has nothing to do with what the poll "data" is about because frankly it just doesn't matter.
Do you think the mrs. romney ever changed a diaper?
Yeah, Mitts
And ruin her manicure - not a chance!
I believe the upstairs nanny changed the diapers. The downstairs nanny fed them and taught them to walk. Pretty sure that's how it goes.
So, let's stop all abortions, ADC, birth control, food stamps, job training and stop funding Planned Parenthood. That should create lots of jobs and eliminate the deficit in short order.
People are really brainwashed about the deficit. It can not come down under Romney unless he raises taxes. It will balloon no matter who the president is except Romney will decimate the middle class and poor to keep the rise as low as possible. If Obama loses unless you are incredibly rich your in big trouble.
Really don't need our 401Ks to turn into 201Ks like they did under W's watch. People that were living on their retirement at the time still haven't recovered. If you didn't have to touch them you've done pretty well under Obama.
Tell us something we don't know First Read.... To summarize---Some women believe Obama will provide them with "free" stuff and the women with common sense realize these subsidies all add to the national debt.
VOTE FOR COMMON SENSE IN 2012!
UAWPL, by free stuff you mean civil rights, freedoms things like that, wow now who with common sense would vote for that. Yes Common Sense in 2012, Obama, Thanks UAW for making the case for Obama
Tis, Women had all that before Obama came to Washington. Stop buying in to Obama's false "wars" on women, gays, latinos, puppies etc. Who doesn't want "free" stuff and taxes raised on "the other guy" etc. Like I said we need more commonsense in Washington. Let's vote for a better leader in 2012!
I love morons from the right who sit and deny the war on women, while red state after red state is going about stripping way our rights. UAW this isn't Obama's false war on women, this is the tea party and their general stupidity taking over any sense the GOP might have had and the GOP with sense have just ridden the tidal wave of stupidity.
And by the way, Arizona and their law that women have to explain to their employers why they need contraception, that is called sexual harassment and is a violation of federal law. Brewer is worse than that jerk from Wisconsin. They can all kiss my a**.
Jan, How did your birth control ever become someone elses responsibility in the first place??? We don't need insurance to pay for contraception. That is just another ridiculous Obama policy designed to bribe you into beleiving you are getting something for free. Insurance should protect us from catastrophic expenses not minor procedures that would cause us to miss nickle beer night. See through the shell game and vote for a better leader...
UAWPLeeeeeeeeeease - but you want it to pay for your Viagra! You're just another ridiculous Republican who wants to put women down.
Free stuff? Like their constitutional rights? You know the rights you hold so sacred? Last time I checked, abortion rights were protected by the Constitution. Oh, that's right, the Constitution only applies when the RWNJ's agree with it; otherwise it doesn't apply..
The bottom line is people vote there pocket books. They have been empty for 4 years and welfare is not an option. Jobless claims are up again for the 4th straight week which proves we are rolling into the 2nd dip of the Obama bailout recession. In all those states where he isn't carrying 50% of the vote now he loses. He has no more room to grow in the polls. He has been campaigning for 4 years and that means he is topped out at that number. Look at incumbent election history and approval ratings. They tell you all you need to know. Romney just secured the nomination and doesn't even have a VP nominee yet. Obama is in deep trouble.
Russell, You Repubes so easily forget who got us into this mess in the first place. As far as Mitten's is concerned, Obama going to mop up the floor with him.
Obama/Biden 2012
Russell - it amazes me you want Romney when he has not offered ONE single suggestion as to how he would change things - not one. We do know he can't think quickly; wants another war; hates women - except for sex and to wait on him; doesn't believe in equal rights; hates the middle class and poor. Yet you're jumping at the chance to vote for him.
Obama has no problem with this idiot! You do if you'd actually vote for him!
Obama, is a liberal, left wing cre.p and most women are seeing through his, socialist agenda(tax payers paying) , and are looking for more conservative values, and a strong debt. free America.
No! ,Vote 4 Obama in 2012!
reg, denial is a river in egypt your not suppose to drink from. Every poll show women support Obama not even close to Romney, but hey if you want to vote for him go for it, just do not expect to have many rights left if he gets it.

Sorry, just love it went is says unable to post please try again.
And most people are seeing that common sense is what is lacking within the GOP. Especially, when 35% of them don't know anything other than what Fox tells them.
NOT ALL CONSERVATIVES ARE STUPID, BUT MOST STUPID PEOPLE ARE CONSERVATIVES... John Stuart Mill.
Hey UAW, How's your battle for the rights of "short, fat, white bald guys"going? Making any headway? They're rooting for you to bring true justice to the world. :)
Planned Parenthood is encouraging the abortion of female babies. Obama is against the GOP led efforts to ban gendercide. Now, tell me, who's more supportive of women?

Congratulations OL - You win the idiot of the day award for the most stupid comment I've heard in a while (well, at least since your last comment).
Gendercide? Must be from the tea party, only the tea party fools come up with that kind of idiot conspiracy BS.
What makes your statement so disturbing, is that you really believe that. Please consider conducting unbaised research to educate yourself, prior to providing an opinion.
Obama Lies - no dodo - YOU lie!
Abortion accounts for 2% of what Planned Parenthood does..And that is genocide? And, isn't the right to have an abortion protected by the U.S Constitution? You know, the diocument you so cherish? Of course, only when you agree with it..
Boy, the truth really brings out the pro-murder crowd...
Maybe you best read an article on the genesis of this BS before making broad generalizations to suit your own biased purposes. abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/politics&id=8681261
All Obama likes is gays...least he said he supports them.
Women recognize that Obama is well-reasoned & mature. They may not always agree with him, but at least he acts like an adult. On the other hand, the Mittster is a man-child, stuck with junior high maturity & child-like dishonesty.
All Obama likes is gays
Remarkable Joe, simply remarkable! "LOL"

MSNBC sure is trying to sugar coat this. If it were the other way around MSNBC would have called it a liofe changing event. I would call a drop for Obama of 19% and a raise for Romney of 14% in one month is substantial and I give credit for women seeing through the charm of Obama and are starting to look at the facts.
This is why Liberals and Conservatives never agree....you see facts and immediately pivot to the negative. We see the facts and want to understand them for what they are.
The above cited poll numbers are actuall very good news for President Obama. I think America understands that all Romney does is just carp about Obama - while offering nothing new or visionary. Women show once again that they are smarter than men (include me in the latter). Recent demographic trends indicate that women are studying and reading more, getting more degrees, etc. And, of course, straight women just don't hate gays as much as straight men do. So Republicans can't peel them way with bigotry as easily. Also, women can be counted on to vote in slightly higher numbers than men. (They also make better campaign volunteers.)
I am middle-aged woman and a member of the Independent Party, and yes I’m so frustrated and disappointed that the PTUS could not single handedly wave his magic wand and change our country’s economic plight overnight, though some progress have been made. Therefore, I am not going to vote again for that Obama, I am voting for the RepublicanTea party who will just gut and cut everything so that we can really become a 3rd world nation and nobody in the entire country will have a job, which will teach em a lesson! Yessirree bob, I’m going Reptea, they have my best interest at heart!
The only question where Obama is under 50%. That's very good news for his reelection campaign and the country.
I could give a Crap about the views of the Rock-Star-in-Chief in reference to Birth control pills!!! Unlike that spoiled little rich child at Georgetown Univ......"I" bouught my OWN birth control pills for 30 yrs. !
So glad the Campaigner-in-Chief had time to call that little Whiner at Georgetown but doesn't give a Dam about the Brave Doctor in Pakistan who enabled him to Brag, Brag, Brag about killing Bin Laden!!!
What a hateful POS!
Yes you are!!!!
Why "Precious"..........because I didn't get my birth control on Your tax dollar?
Patty- oh but please tell me you're taking birth control!!! One of you is plenty!
Conservatives Do Not have a problem with Birth Control. But they Do have a Problem using Abortion for it. They also have a Problem with Abortion Clinics being used to ONLY Abort FEMALE Fetuses . Which DEMS Voted to ALLOW Today .
Welcome to CHINA!
When we have majority MALE babies........who in the he!! is going to have the Babies????
It is predicted that years from now 60% of the population in China will be MEN...who will have the future babies???
God made Adam and Eve......NOT Adam & Adam!

The difference between what Obama says and what actions Obama takes should be a warning to all of us as these Obama words point out.
* In February 2009, Democratic President Barack Obama stated:
I refuse to leave our children with a debt that they cannot
repay. And that means taking responsibility right now, in this administration,
for getting our spending under control.
"Remarks at the Fiscal Responsibility Summit." By Barack Obama. Government
Printing Office, February 23, 2009. http://www.gpoaccess.gov/presdocs/2009/DCPD200900102.htm
Obama has managed to push this country's debt to almost $16 trillion. There is no way he can make the above statement a reality with his out of control of borrownig and spending.
How can anyone believe anything Obama says?
Obama inherited two wars, a mini-depression, and two tax cuts. Moreover, he tried a grand bargain of 4 trillion dollars in deficit reduction (2/3 cuts and 1/3 tax increases), but the Republicans (who almost all owe their allegiance to Gover Norquist) said, "NO!" And remember the CBO scores Romney's budget plans as WORSE than Obama's on the deficit. His tax and spending plans will INCREASE the deficit at a greater rate. (Romney wants MORE tax cuts and MORE defense spending.) Do the math! Not even his support for the destruction of medicare will make it better.
The CAMPAIGNER-in-Chief is an IDIOT!
Bush had 4 trillion in Debt in *8 years* NoBanama had $5 Trillion in 3.5 years!
Are you kidding????????
He has been Campaigning 24/7 for almost 4 yrs..he is sooooooooo scared of losing "Obama One". (which cost us BILLIONS for traveling and partying!)
You, Patty, are quite simply, a piece of work. A walk on the lovely VA beach, followed by a week without the "Fair and Balanced" propaganda channel just might introduce you to reality.
I can forgive your Tea-Party and you,for the igorance on ECONOMIC facts,since both of you are illiterates on economy factors.
I'm very sure your Tea-Party and you'll understand it much better ,If Im going to illustrate the Oncology of Sexuality. SINCE Your Tea-Party and you do have an Expertise on women's reproductives
If G.W.Bush do has any Sexual activity with any woman on 2008 ,the effects of "The Miracle of Pregancy" will not happen till the 9th months later,all the expenses bill and burden tab shall only occurred on 2009. "This theory will only apply "IF" ,in which I persummed that all his 2008 actvities were between a man & a woman without any contraception".
Its unfortunate the "Daddy is not around in 2009" to pick- all the "Responsibility Burden Tab".
Lucky to all Americans to have the Foster Daddy, that's "The Responsible Family Man" picking all those Burden Tab in 2009.
PS...To the TEA-PARTY nuts ,If You're are going to re"POST" again the lie on "DEFICIT" on our Present President, I'll Cut and Paste this Anology, as your "REPLY".
What is truly amazing his how all you Obama supporters excel at being uninformed. Did Obama have the Bush tax cuts to the rich repealed. NO!
Did Obama propose his tax reform when the democrats had control of Congress, NO! After all, Obama claims its the next best thing to southern fried chicken.
Has Obama done anything to reduce the amount of debt his government is creating, NO!
LIke everything that comes out of his mouth about what he's going to do and then what he does doesn't even come close to being one and the same thing.
Yes, WH @10:08 you are correct!! Sounds like you, I and others in this discussion have been EDUCATING ourselves on the candidates, their backround and views on what this election should be about. WH, if you haven't already, two great pre-election reads are "The President's Club" and "The Amateur". The latter is an eye-opening book about President O'Bama. This is no time to joke around as many discussion posters are doing these days.
