TAMPA, Fla. -- The problem with Washington is that it is not using the freshest ingredients, according to one former Republican presidential hopeful.
Herman Cain, the former CEO of Godfather's Pizza who led the GOP primary for a time last fall, fired up a crowd of Tea Party supporters at megachurch here Sunday night at the TeaParty.net Unity rally. And though none of the speakers gathered here will appear on stage during the Republican National Convention, the rally was meant to be a show of force of their impact on this year's election.
"The way you make the best pizza, like Godfather's Pizza, you use the best ingredients," Cain told reporters after his speech. "You use the best beef, the best pepperoni, the best sausage, the best cheeses, the best dough. In the United States of America, we don't have the best ingredients in Washington D.C."

Former candidate for the Republican nomination in the 2012 US presidential election Herman Caine speaks at a Tea Party Unity Rally at The River at Tampa Bay Church in Tampa, Florida, on August 26, 2012 ahead of the Republican National Convention.
Though the event was held at The River Church, the focus was more so on the importance of Tea Party principles than it was on faith.
Minnesota Rep. Michelle Bachmann, who also ran for president, addressed the more than 500 attendees as did conservative radio host Neal Boortz and Rep. Jason Chaffetz, who spoke on behalf of Mitt Romney.
"We are not an unwanted, second class political party. We are the conscious of the United States Constitution, and we don't apologize for that," Bachmann told the enthusiastic crowd. She said the tea party influence can be seen in the Republican party's draft platform, which includes a call to audit the Federal Reserve and strictly prohibiting abortion.
But it was Cain who was the headliner and who received the loudest reception. Despite leading the Republican presidential primary for much of October, the former businessman said he is not disappointed about his absence from the the list of speakers at the RNC. He told the crowd that his goals have not changed since his run for office, stating, “I’m still on a mission to defeat Barack Obama!”

Cain was quick to voice his praise for Romney's choice of Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan as his running mate. "He didn't make the safe choice, he made the bold choice," Cain said after his speech.
He also defended the presumptive GOP nominee over a recent joke he made in his home state of Michigan, where, touting his hometown roots, Romney quipped, "No one's ever asked to see my birth certificate."
"I just think it was a good joke. I dont think he was trying to bring up the birther issue. hey, cut the man some slack, he's running for president. he can crack a joke every once in a while," Cain said.

I thought America was a shining city on a hill? We're actually a pepperoni pizza?
OK, I know Republicans eschew President Obama for his soaring rhetoric, but this pizza analogyis a bit ridiculous.
Leave it to the GOP/TP to lower the bar and settle for something that barely resembles pizza. That's right Hermie, the best pizza requires the best ingredients and the best staff to assemble it into something edible, something you know nothing about, and something that can't be addressed in your simplistic 999 plans. The GOP/TP think they understand American exceptionalism. Nothing could be further from the truth, they only understand settling for less and passing that off as something worthwhile.
Keep trudging through the sludge you GOP/TPers - as you consistently lower the bar, American continues to decline.
Cain and Bachmann may be the poorest examples of political thinking. Who on planet Earth believes that they have anything credible to offer when it comes to political dialogue.
The GOP Cannibal Convention
has started with a good show.
OBAMA 2012
Cain said he wasn't disappointed by not being asked to speak at the RNC.
More accurately, he is probably relieved that he won't be linked to that circus of fools under the big top.
"The way you make the best pizza, like Godfather's Pizza, you use the best ingredients," Cain told reporters after his speech
ROFL, the best way to keep America voting Barack Obama is to let nut jobs like him, and brain dead, batcrap crazy, Michelle Batwoman fire up their stupid base.

Hermie laughs at racial jokes!
The Herminator's favorite:
Hey, where's all the WHITE women?
Apparently we have the best cheese and wine in DC though in Bachmann and Boehner...
Romney/Ryan doesn't need TP to wipe their asses!
I thought Papa John's used the best ingredients. Well, look on the bright side folks, if this IDIOT had gotten elected to POTUS, He could fix everything just by adding more cheese and toppings!
Great, a gathering of dumb and dumber, where they all get together and lie to each other.
I don't know which one makes a @!$%#tier tasting pizza?
Hide the pepperoni Hermie or eye liner boy?
Nothing says *BLECH* like plastic cheese...
Feisty Redhead Roselle, IL
My local, Mom-and-Pop, pizza joint makes the best pizza. I guess the owner would make an excellent Republican Candidate!
Mmmmm! Plastic!
Blame the "TEAWACKOS" in Congress for our Unemployment rate, these Nutty people are Destroying our Country !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh Whoopee, the Teabangelicals are back! What next, a sleazy herd of the faithful chasing down uppity women who dare to control their own uteri. Bring em on - the shield walls are going up and we're ready for you!
LOL....holy cow losers!
What are you so afraid of?!?!? All of the pettiness coming from the party of "inclusion"....lmao....yeah right!
Grow a set guys - Real men can't be liberals. Real men don't need to be babysat by some crooked snake oil salesman. Get up off yer asses and go support your family like a man should.
Candyasses....it might even make you feel useful!
That's so true, some of the best pizza's come from local mom and pop places. There are a number of them near me that make the best.
Love how you folks disparage success. Herman Cain didn't get where he is because of family connections. He earned his way by succeeding in every challenge he took on. He turned failing divisions into profitable entities because of his brains, organizational skills and business savvy. Yet you mock him. You - who who have accomplished zilch by comparison.
When you have to depend on THIS group of losers to rally the crowd, you've really sunk to the lowest depths possible. It's kinda like whale sh*t in the bottom of the ocean - doesn't get much lower.
Herman Cain, Michelle Bachman; yech! Next they'll get Santorum, Palin, etc. How low can a party go?
Oh, that's right Romney/Ryan - they actually CAN and DID go lower!
Obama/Biden 2012
Hey Redneck, The TeaWackos are making the GOP look like Cheap Uneducated Trailer Park Trash !!!
The GOP will not let Ron Paul speak at their convention, but they are planning on letting him show his face to give him an award - I heard the award is a tin-foil hat.
Will he get to give an acceptance speech? I think not as all they want out of him is his nod.
Q22 - not sure how succcessful that pizza thing was for Herman, in our area the pizza parlors lasted about 3 years and went bankrupt.
Now that's funny. Why don't you google "conservative brain" and see what you get. We now have proof most Republican men are really frightened little boys looking for a father figure. Must be a really scary world out there.
You mean like how Willard Romney did? lol
I've got to agree with you, Hermie wasn't born with a platinum spoon in his mouth! ☺
Herman agreed to show up only after he found out Michelle was in the house. #Bow chick-a bow mow#
Then you understand the magnitude of his accomplishment.
Hey, where's all the WHITE women?
Not at a Republican convention, that's for sure!
Holy crap. And you try to tag Republicans with the racist smear??? Look in the mirror.
Are Godfathers Pizza's still around? I've never even seen one, let alone tasted their food. Come to think of it, with Herman "Where's da white wemen" Cain running it, I guess I've just been lucky!
And a WHOLE 500 people showed up!! WOW...................................hey wait a minute, isn't this the church that the cops moved all of the homeless people to, so the rich whiteys wouldn't have to see them? No wonder 500 people showed up, they offered them free food! I guess the "Homeless for Herman" campaign is working, but what about the "Bat$hit for Bachmann" crowd?
I can't wait to see the costumes the T Party freaks wear. I saw 7 clown cars pull up all from michigan and Massachusetts
Keep the racist rants coming you "inclusive" hypocrites
The GOP Convention looks like a Nazi Death Camp for the Florida Seniors !!!!!!!!!!!!
Think of all the Godfather's pizza he could have sold at the GOP Convention. I'm sure he's disappointed at missing such a great pizza marketing opportunity. I've never had his pizza. Is it any good?
ha ha ha. Nazi references...you guys are so clever.....
Q22
Keep the racist rants coming you "inclusive" hypocrites
Q22, It's like you are # 22 in the nation incluive in the "BIG TENT" of the GOP/T-EVANGELISTS.
How on earth do you people think you can overcome a deficit of African Americans, Latinos, women including republicans, LGBTs, the youth, and swing voters leaning toward Presidnt Obama.
Before I even heard the Herman Cain remarks, I thought, Granola. If that isn't a group of nuts and flakes what is?
And Michele1969, It's obvious you have no clue what it is to be a man. Just a simpering little punk that trolls on here calling people names and telling outright lies. Your avatar shows you're nothing but a little BOY at best. Grow a pair you little weasel excuse for a man.
Oh kewl, dumb and dumberer have now joined the fight. :)
I wonder if "family values" Herman Cain-mutiny was able to keep his mistress after the mess she created for him a few months back? :D
So, the Brown Shirts held a rally in Tampa. What? No torch light parade? No "Krystal Nacht?"
I'm surprised the numbers were so small. Just another indicator that their time is passing.
Obama/Biden 2012
Good job lying Michelle and Pizza Man -- get out there and remind the entire nation what a collection of fools, morons, and clowns the Republican Party has become.
Herman, Palin, Santorum & Bachmann are the Voice of the GOP !!!!!!
I understand there are several paid Obama shills around here, but the way some people fawn over Obama like little girls at a Jonas Bros concert is pretty sickening.
Showing a list of almost every Presidential poll, where do you see Romney with a lead? In fact is pretty much an even race.

Good helping of imaginings, mix with ample ignorance, stir in an equal amount of lies, mix thoroughly, and season well with religious dogma, hatred and racism, then frost with a well beaten and popular bullsh^t. Wa'la! The timeless republican recipe. Always plenty to feed the fools.

Best post of the day!!
Although, The Herminator is an equal opportunity womanizer. His stash for over 8 yrs was black or mulatto lol.
We want more Herman Cain!!
Maybe the pizza analogy would work better if Godfather's pizza didn't suck.
lmao,feisty you think i care about the politics,dont care if its the gop convention or dnc convention,just like the music. lighten up butch
Quoting Bachmann,
Conscious?
The lights are on (sort of) but clearly nobody is home!
"Former GOP presidential hopefuls rally Tea Party crowd."
Shorter, more accurate headline: "Send in the Clowns."
So now you are also the arbiter of analogies? His was a fine example and you need to look for better things with which to disagree. Oh yeah, he wasn't a line-toeing liberal, so you have to disagree.
Yet you couldn't find within yourself to address the obviously racist statements by one of your own. It's like you believe that since you all are such virtuous people about race that it's ok when you use negative racial stereotypes. Kind of like when Ted Danson felt he could wear black-face because hey, he was dating Whoopie, how could he be racist.
Just to be clear, since you seem confused, writing "where's da white women" when referring to a black man is highly offensive regardless if you are a virtuous leftist or a white supremest. You are quick to police others, you should be just as quick to police your own.
[journey...I'm sure a washed up 80's band being paid a half a million dollars to attend had nothing to do with their decision! lol]
Yesterday the wife and I went to our local pistol range to sharpen our skills, and as she was downrange setting up her targets I notice she was attaching shiny round things to her board.
She comes back to the bench, she loads up, hammers a magazine into her Ruger LC 9, and proceeds to shatter the discs from her target board.
She empties the magazine, looks up from the handgun, glances over at me with that Cheshire Cat grin I fell in love with the very first time we met and says:
So much for my Journey cd collection...
All I said was: That's my girl!
The beast (666) is upon us, FOX news F=6, O (15th letter)1+5=6, X (24th letter)2+4=6. Revelations tells us the beast has 7 heads and 10 horns and 10 crowns which equal 27. If Romney iselected he will be the 27thelected Republican president. (Remember the Democrat- Republicans and the Whig Parties both turned into the Republican Party). FOX (Murdock) also owns 27 television stations in the USA. Revelation 13.1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
Hosea 4:6 God Says, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget
thy children. FOX is the Blasphemer and you if believe its lies, you allow it to destroy your knowledge. God says, my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
Revelation 13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the
earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. Bain Capital (Romney’s Baby) owns Clear Channel which owns 866 radio stations and Premiere Radio Networks, a national radio network that serves nearly 5,800 radio station affiliates and has over 213 million weekly listeners. Programs include the Rush Limbaugh Show, Glenn Beck and the Sean Hannity Show (Revelation 13:11 and he spake as a dragon)
Both FOX (Murdock = 1st beast) and Bain (2nd beast) work together.Revelation 13:12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound washealed. [13:13] And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, [13:14] And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. [13:15] And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. [13:16] And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: [13:17] And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Ezekiel 33:7, So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.
We as knowledgeable Christians cannot let the beast in, we must resist his lies, gain knowledge and give warning.

I see Bachman has a secret service guy spraying her knees for flys
Damn---a mixture of Carville and Twain. Good evening, Friend.
With this group of right wing nut extremists all I can say is, "Seig Heil!"
Q22,
How about more than references.
1. 1930 Nazi's run fake Christian Democrats in German to confuse voters. 2012 Wisconsin republicans run fake Democrats to confuse voters.
2. 1930 German Courts allow unlimited spending by industrialists in campaign spending to buy German elections for the Nazi's. 2011. Robert's Supreme Court allows PACS. unlimited spending to buy American Elections.
3. 1930's German Voter ID's to prevent certain groups from voting or at least making it more difficult. 2012 Dozens of states republican sponsored Voter ID's to do the same here. Thank goodness many sates ruled them Unconstitutional. Sure seems similar doesn't Q22. Browns shirts and armbands saying, "Don't Tread On Me" next. How sad! Seig Heil!
The Tea Party = Millionaires leading morons
A Breit Bart poll has Romney ahead? BFD.
Desperation is a stinky cologne
What is stinky, is GOP claiming ANYTHING AT ALL about the U.S. economy, when they've tried to drown us by every means possible since the President was elected in 2009.
On the evening of President Obama's inauguration, 15 senior GOP leaders met and pledged to block our economic recovery - and blame the fallout on President Obama.
Despite that, this Administraton created 4.5 million jobs in the the 37 months following the end of the recession. During the same time period, at the end of a mild recession, President Bush created only 1.1 million jobs.
The President brought U.S. Auto back to number one globally. By contrast, Romney wrote an Op-Ed called "Let Detroit Go Bankrupt". Left up to Romney, we'd be where Europe is right now.
Romney's message is void of details.
That is stinky.

After he wins, then he will owe us something.
By the way what have you done for America since 08.
Perhaps we could compare your life to Romney's and who has had a greater net positive contribution to society?
I'm leaning toward Romney by a landslide, You don't come off as someone capable of doing anything for anyone but yourself.
All you little babies just cry now because Barack can't play with the big dogs (he ate them actually). You know real leaders need excuses for their failures. I am wondering after the a$$ kicking Barack receives in the voting booths across this land what will be your excuses for your failures of making anything stick -- oh yeah I already know -- Money. Grow up if you want to play. Go away Little Girl. Here's BHO early in his acting career:

elliot - Sandy isn't running for President so your post is - at best - idiotic.
EVERY Presidential candidate in modern time has released at least 5 years of federal tax returns - prior to being elected. Romney should be held to the same standard. And, intelligent people DO hold him to that standard.
I would venture I've had a much greater contribution to society than Mitts.
My guess is you do nothing for anyone but yourself!
Ben - as usual you show yourself to be the very small man you clearly are!

4.5 MILLION PRIVATE SECTOR JOBS WERE CREATED OVER THE LAST 29 MONTHS.
Under the Obama Administration.
You are right. I only do things for myself. From getting out of bed to going to work, I do it for myself.
Even when I feel like being altruistic, I'm actually doing that for myself.
I'm not afraid to admit it, my natural instincts of self preservation and gratification is what I live by.
I don't think I would be comfortable living for the sake of another of letting another reap the products of my labor.
Enjoy your road to serfdom.
Sandy, he's mormon and a millionaire, so I'm sure he as you beat on that front too. NBC even ran articles about all the good his church does around the world from Haiti to home. Keep trying, like i said landslide, You don't stand a chance of being a better contribution to society than Romney.
And where were most of them created????????? In Republican run, non-union states. And 5.8 million were lost in democrat states. Net loss of 1.3 million. Run on that record.
@seeking -- you are wrong McCain didn't for one.
SeekingSanity
elliot - Sandy isn't running for President so your post is - at best - idiotic
SeekingSanity,
Some how they just don't get it. But, they will on November 7th. America doesn't want a possible felon for president. Until he releases those tax returns it will be an issue he has to face and no amount of Superpac money can bail him out. Americans have awaken to his fraudulent persona .
Those Rasmussen and FOX NOISE polls mean nothing; particularly because they are mean nasty robo calls to their hard core whacked out base. The GOP/T- BANGERS are doing everything in their power, unknowingly, (that's how stupid they are) to discourage the 2o% smack dab in the middle.

Well said Elliot. In an age where mediocracy is applauded, success demonized.
Backhouse, quite the nerve you have there except the economy is worse under obama as well as unemployment. Serfs are what Obama wants, Feudal system would be up his alley.
But, but austerity is a good thing just ask Budget Boy.

Elliot made a good point. Just because it is the truth does not make it idiotic.
SS,
McCain submitted two years.
You too C A.
Obama is looking out for the middle class, what is left of it since Reagan. We must rebuild the middle class. Doing that will keep our democracy. Tax breaks to the top end up in swiss bank accounts. While spending by the 98% leads to good jobs, feeds business, prosperity and hiring.
Otherwise, the elites will do away with democracy - quick as a wink.
@elliot
You asked?
FYI my contribution to society
Served along side my husband in the U.S. Navy for 25 years.

Now answer my question.
What has Romney done for America since, he lost in 2008.
we have lost 3 million jobs since 2009
we lose 350k jobs each month
this is job growth....."obama job growth"
Sandy,
In 2008, Romney gave McCain 23 years of tax returns - because Romney was running for V-P in 2008.
McCain said recently that "Sarah Palin was the better candidate".
So let's join the dots on the Romney's tax returns...
prove it.
Women have barely been allowed in the navy for that long.
Keck
and it is applauded as success in the left. Look at Backhouse tell us how Obama is looking out for the middle class. Watch as Backhouse continues to say its only ok if the Left does it because the geniuinely care.
WHERE OH WHERE HAS OBAMA'S LITTLE LASER GONE? WHERE OH WHERE COULD IT BE BACKHOUSE?

John Dickerson said Monday on "CBS This Morning," Romney should use the convention to "maybe just tell the story of his life." In spite of pleas for him to open up, Romney so far has been more focused on touting his resume. Polls have repeatedly shown that voters find Mr. Obama more likable.

keck,
"We lose 350K jobs every month." Actually there are 350,000 people that get terminated every week. They are the numbers that show up in the BLS "UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE WEEKLY CLAIMS REPORT". It is that high even in times of low unemployment – it is business as usual.
The monthly number is "net" jobs added or lost.
http://www.dol.gov/opa/media/press/eta/ui/current.htm
No, you are completely wrong on job losses.
We were losing 700,000 jobs per MONTH by the time President Bush left office -- when the economy was in free fall -- at minus 8.9% GDP. (-8.9%) Nine million jobs lost.
What IS true is the Republican governors have fired 700,000 public sector workers - since they were elected on Jobsjobsjobs in 2010.
Previous presidents, including GWB and Reagan, INCREASED government workers following a recession to speed economic recovery. Reagan INCREASED teachers. Whereas GOP governors have fired 300,000 following the worst recession in 60 years.
The GOP strategy is to make the unemployment situation worse, so they can blame it on President Obama. They do not care about who they hurt. YOU are included in that.
@elliot
I was a Navy wife.
What has Romney done for America since, he lost in 2008?
PROVE IT.
Sandy, Romney turned the Olympics into a success (instead of failure too bad huh lefties). At Bain he help create jobs, no they werent unionized gov jobs (you know lefty success) but private jobs. Since 08, he's a private wealthy citizen. He's not in civil service. Sandy you are just another Big Gov supporter gimme gimme gimme.
Congrats on surviving marriage to service member but what does being a vets wife have to do with contributing to society?
EVERY Presidential candidate in modern time has released at least 5 years of federal tax returns - prior to being elected.
Republican candidate John McCain released two years of tax returns for the years of 2006 and 2007 in April 2008, less than a month after Mr. Obama.

Business Insider: Though two weekend polls showed mixed results for the president, Barack Obama reached an important mark in both an ABC/Washington Post poll released Sunday night and a CNN poll released Friday. His approval rating hit 50 percent in both of them.
How about that 94 -0 rating Romney got with African Americans?

who cares what Romney has done, was he obligated to from 08 to now? Ask that of Obama. Where is that pesky laser again?
Seeking Sanity, you are lying again. Senators do not have to release tax returns.
And counting the last 3 years of 0bama's presidency as years he released taxes during his election is BS and you know it.
sandy, several people have answered that question--scroll up.

Avoid the question, you sound like Romney.
No answer, no VOTE.

Hows that? That's what he's done and it's gonna hurt you come November!
HAHAHAH!!!!!
Hey fisty... check it out... ;o)
Mit has not contributed much of anything to America that I can find, the Olympics - well, what about all the Athletes, corporate sponsors, and the other countries involved? Mr. Mittens - you did not do that all by yourself! sorry, I don't have much respect for anything to do with the mormon religion (I'm just too much of an evangical myself to buy into that - sorry I think mr. smith probably got lost in the desert and ate too much peyote and that is when he saw visions), so you guys are gonna have to do better than that. Bain, well, enough said, I don't support greed either and I know that trickle down never, ever works for the working/middle class. right now I have about as much respect and concern for the 1% as they have for me.
Hope and change have worked very, very well for my working/middle class family, thanks for asking! No romney/ryan/republicans, not now, not ever, thanks just the same! I'm not buying what they are selling now that our family is finally making a good living.
Sick
In 2008 the GOP did not want Romney.
He is a recycled candidate.
WTF is fair share. How old are you three? he doesnt have a job ergo NO INCOME. He does pay his 'fair share' according to the tax laws. You do know everyone takes advantage of those loopholes, even you dumazz or are you one of those 47% or whatever that doesnt pay. I bet you are.

In 2008 the GOP did not want Romney.
and in 2012 so is Obama. Hope for Chains
Then elliot says PROVE IT! and sandy replies.... ready?
HAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!
(perfect example of how the left twists facts to try to make a point... the rest of us just call it lying!)
eliot - President Obama has released 10 years of his tax returns. So, your point actually isn't a "point" at all!
Obama/Biden 2012
All you need now is the breaded lady and you have a seven ring circus. WOW I have my pop corn by my side. This idiot out shin each other show is fun.
keep crying redneck, its a losing battlecry of the left LOL. since you can't define a 'fair share' i'll leave it at that. you talk of tranparency, you mean like gaining enough votes for Obamacare? or is that another fallacy according to the left? If the IRS knows of illegal activity why not enforce the law? If Mitts taxes have damaging info, where is Obama's transcripts? hmmm. I thought so too
the economy is at the top of the agenda. Now spin it
This is the best they could find to speak? She totally clueless and was ELECTED..
The middle class has shrunk from 61% of America to 51% today. Its share of national income has fallen from 62% in 1971 to 45% today. The rich's share keeps increasing. Their tax rate has been cut three times in the last 12 years because its good for job creation. This has not worked.
Yet, the Republicans persist in insisting on more tax cuts for the rich as a way to increase job growth. Tax cuts for the rich will surely enrich them even more, and I think this is their main goal, to increase the rich's economic might to ensure Republican control of this country. Meanwhile, the middle class will only struggle even more with Republican rule. And the poor will find little but poverty with the Republican agenda.
That isn't a very kind thing to say about African Americans.
The beast (666) is upon us, FOX news F=6, O (15th letter)1+5=6, X (24th letter)2+4=6. Revelations tells us the beast has 7 heads and 10 horns and 10 crowns which equal 27. If Romney iselected he will be the 27thelected Republican president. (Remember the Democrat- Republicans and the Whig Parties both turned into the Republican Party). FOX (Murdock) also owns 27 television stations in the USA. Revelation 13.1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
Hosea 4:6 God Says, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget
thy children. FOX is the Blasphemer and you if believe its lies, you allow it to destroy your knowledge. God says, my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
Revelation 13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the
earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. Bain Capital (Romney’s Baby) owns Clear Channel which owns 866 radio stations and Premiere Radio Networks, a national radio network that serves nearly 5,800 radio station affiliates and has over 213 million weekly listeners. Programs include the Rush Limbaugh Show, Glenn Beck and the Sean Hannity Show (Revelation 13:11 and he spake as a dragon)
Both FOX (Murdock = 1st beast) and Bain (2nd beast) work together.Revelation 13:12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound washealed. [13:13] And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, [13:14] And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. [13:15] And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. [13:16] And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: [13:17] And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Ezekiel 33:7, So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.
We as knowledgeable Christians cannot let the beast in, we must resist his lies, gain knowledge and give warning.
Obama/Biden 2012
Republicans on these blogs like to point to the Polls and say, "Your Polls got it wrong on the Walker Recall!" And, they are right. A number of Polls did say Walker would be recalled, but he wasn't. However...
Nate Silver of Five Thirty Eight predicted Walker would NOT be recalled. Read it for yourself...
http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/05/24/in-wisconsin-walker-is-likely-to-survive-recall/
Nate Silver and Five Thirty Eight say...
the election over
And ~ Republican Pundit George Will, seems to agree with Nate Silver, blasting Romney's flip flopping when he wrote in the Washington Post, October 2011,...
"Romney, supposedly the Republican most electable next November, is a recidivist reviser of his principles (Flip Flopper) who is not only becoming less electable; he might damage GOP chances of capturing the Senate…
Want even more from Republican George Will....
Taxhistory(dot)org has detailed information on presidental canidates tax return releases.
i thought the hbo show NEWSROOM hit it well last night, " the tea party is nothing but the American Taliban and removing a persons god given right to vote is high on the taliban list! we must not let this happen!
great show and great message!
I ♥ Newsroom!
Very current & accurate!
kr- Equating the Tea Party people with the Taliban? Really? And then you people wonder why we always accuse you of siding with the enemy. I equate Debbie "Was A Man" Shultz with that freaky, transexual hooker that Larry O'Donnell has been seen with, but I don't compare my own countrymen with a regime that does the things the Taliban does.
Tell us. When was the last time any Tea Party people sawed off a woman's head for not wearing enough clothing? When was the last time any Tea Party person blew up a school because there were little girls inside? When was the last time a Tea Party person stoned a woman to death for being raped?
I know what you're going to lamely say: "but we're heading in that direction...blah blah blah". No. We're not. And you, although being a pissy pants, whiny little liberal (and probably gay), know it too. If you really think that, then why don't you do all we clear thinking and realistic Americans a favor and get the **** out.
Damage, they're losing so that is the best they can do. Now lets talk about war mongering Democrats. War on Women, Class Warfare, War on Success.
They only like gays and minorities for votes, nothing more
Really?
You are aware that we gave plenty of aid to the Taliban when they were just a bunch of rebels fighting the Soviet Union, yes?
...so, actually, the GOP would be correct in saying, "The Taliban? We built that!"
PS - "Transsexual" jokes hardly qualify as high-brow political discourse, don't you think?
I ask those who chose to respond to the trolls like Brain Damaged, do so without copying their comments in your rebuttal.
There is a reason some of us have these @!$%#s on ignore...
I don't want to read their crap!
That's how desperate the Left has become. Here's what the Taliban does:
Maybe Chicago, run for generations by the Democratic Machine, is a better comparison to make to the Taliban:
One thing Chicago has over the Taliban, guns seem to be much more efficient.
Obama 2012 - "In my next four years, I'll pledge to make Chicago safer than Afghanistan"
WTF Noid? That had nothing to do with Damage said. The GOP built the Taliban not the American Gov? You are by far one giant TOOL. And the DNC built Milosevic's Genocidal Army.
Come on Feisty, don't take the fun out of troll busting. I do have to admit that the quality has fallen dramatically but sometime we can't help ourselves.
Liberal definition of troll: Not agreeing with the factless and baseclaims that come out of their piehole
Caesar to compare the GOP with the Taliban is ridiculous over-dramatization and people with common sense know it. People in the middle are tired of extremists in both parties.
@JoAnnaSmith1
Remember we do not need anymore new gun laws. (GOP message.)
Question What has Romney done for America, since he lost in 2008?
OBAMA 2012
Brain Damage123
kr- Equating the Tea Party people with the Taliban? Really? And then you people wonder why we always accuse you of siding with the enemy.
Brain Damage, because it's true. Even some Republicans admit it.
Why Obama
Unfortunately, Mitt Romney has not proven to be able to stand up to our party's most extreme elements. Instead, he has fallen for the "one-size-fits-all" mentality that tax cuts for the already-wealthy will solve all of our problems, and has no workable plans to solve the challenges we face.
President Obama has shown himself to be a common-sense centrist. He has cut taxes when necessary, has taken steps to protect the environment, and has aggressively pursued Islamic extremists who threaten America. Most notably, he has reformed our healthcare system by signing a Republican-inspired healthcare plan into law. In most other points in our party's history, Obama would fit in well as a Republican

Obama/Biden 2012
I agree ksw however the leftwing militia in here actually think you and i are extremist LOL. Poor Noid couldnt even respond to damage appropriately and instead drew some left field conclussion about his post. Extreme indeed.
Sandy, what have you done for America ever? I knew you'd see my point. Now go ask Obama the same question.
Guns are pretty much illegal in Chicago. There is a long and impossible process one needs to follow to own one. Good thing, right? Wouldn't want anyone to be able to defend themselves.
Not destroyed it. Paid millions in taxes. Contributed millions to charity.
Obama 2012 - "Destroying Prosperity One Job at a Time"
I know, Al!
The right wing @!$%# is getting so deep around here, it's threatening to overflow into my hip-waders! ;o)
I want to avoid any spill-over from the likes of BrainDamaged & his merry band of misfits!
@JoAnna
Have you seen Willard's 2008 and 2009 tax returns to prove your statement?
What has Romney done for America since, he lost in 2008.
poor fisty rottencrotch doesnt understand the irony
Jas...Still out there hooking for Romney? Gave "millions to charity." Newsflash lovey: The LDS church is a business! 75% of all tithing goes to LDS businesses and the building fund or missions overseas to convert unsuspecting victims. How much does the LDS Church spend on assisting the poor thru job training or free medical clinics or mental health services? (something you could use). Just askin?
You've already been told. Please present evidence to the contrary, if you have it. Talk to Harry Reid, he might have some "information" for you.
Romney's contributions were in fact to charity. Says so right on his tax forms.
My. How bigoted. Just say'n.
JoAnna
Romney has given money to his church, you say.
Can you prove it for 2008 and 2009 without his tax returns?
LOL Giving money to his church is your only answer to:
What has Romney done for America since, he lost in 2008.
alexandr1 - IF that's supposed to be a quote, you have to cite the source - those are the rules around here.
Why doesn't it surprise me that a person with limited intelligence - like you - would cling to such a quote? It says everything about you! Absolutely everything!
Obama/Biden 2012
I don't have to prove anything sweetie, nor does Romney. I just know that Romney has contributed heavily to his church.
The Left, like you, can keep this little game of distraction going on for oh, about another few days. Soon we'll be talking about what you will hate to talk about, the poor economy, Obama's responsibility for the poor economy, Obama's actions that caused the poor economy, what Obama's plans are to maintain the poor economy, and after that, even more debate about, you know it, the poor economy.
You poor things won't know what hit you.
Obama - "Economy? We dont need no stinking economy"
The party of hate except old as white men.
I'm sorry, Representative Bachmann, but I missed the part of the constitution that gives the federal government the power to legislate morality and tell women what they can and cannot do to their own bodies. Which article was that in again?
The rightwing will protect a fertilized egg's right to own an assualt weapon, but making sure that egg has access to medical care is nanny-state stuff.
Ah,Bachman really is a nut!...."Women should be submissive to their husbands"......
Therefore......women are submissive to men!
Love that Amy. I'm stealing it!
except amy is wrong, you see Amy doesnt understand the 2nd amendment. Not one amendment in the constitution mentions Healthcare for all Free.
Promoting General Welfare is NOT the same as PROVIDING the General Welfare
Not one amendment in the constitution mentions Healthcare for all Free.
And yet, if you show up at a hospital emergency room, they'll treat you, even if you can't pay. And hospitals then pass on the cost to the rest of us who do have insurance. TeaPartiers want guaranteed healthcare, but they also want the option not to pay for it.
Teapartiers want guaranteed healthcare? in what aspect are you talking about? Medicare? you pay into that, i dont want it stolen either. Go check out the constitution before you make dumb statements amy. trust me Amy out of respect i would never use my gun to defend you.
Seeing my post on FT has been collapsed already, I re post here.
It is more apporpiate on this thread.
Michele Bachmann and Hermain Cain were main speakers at a Tea Party rally of about 500 folks at Rivers Chruch in Tampa on Sunday evening. Their focus was not so much on Romney but rallying their troops.
Rivers Church is a revival, pentecostal church founded by two South Africans in the late 90"s. They are part of a national network of Revival ministries that not only wants to save souls but also elect God Fearing politicians . And they are not leaving this to God, but one can join their school of government!
http://www.revival.com/river-school-of-government.4255.1.htm
Tea Party and the religious fundamentalist are indeed the ground that people like Bachmann, Akin have been schooled in to promote the GOP brand.
I thought we had a separation of Church and state in the US.
Maybe I was wrong?
This week we will hear about Romney's school of religious faith: LDS or Mormons.
You too! lol
The right wing nitwits sound the alarm and the collapse cowards come marching in!
Grand coming you rotten crotch. LibsrUs. Get em collapsed and deleted.
Poor CA, typical "teabagger", all control freak all the time, and as is the usual, foul mouthed at that.
My goodness, get out of your basement and go take a walk. Then pick up a book and read.
If you can, that is.
Poor Newday calling me a teabagger and has no clue. Not surprised you support OBama, you'd have to be clueless. As for control, what do i control? Look I am not the one that had a not so secret Libtard cave to discuss strategem (collapsing posts and attempting to get certain members banned). Oh and speaking of control, love that Obamacare that tells you what you can have or have not medically. It was a rather interesting read watching you all wet your pants once you were had. But now everyone knows how deplorable you guys really are. Now go back to figuring out which 'rereg' i am. it's like watching my dog chase its tail
Ok moderators - why don't you collaplse Ceasar Augustus'? Nasty fingers don't convert anyone!
Yep, the poll is tightening, wonder what it will look like after the elephants and their circus leave Tampa? If he gets as much of a bump out of their convention as he did from announcing his running mate then I'd say go on home mittens, you gonna lose this thing big time.
Don't care what he made or paid in taxes, much more interested in did he really live where he voted? Show us the tax returns mitt, if you have the nerve!
CA - guess you have not had health insurance for quite some time, if you had you would know already that your doctor does not really dictate your care - it is your health insurance company chooseing your care, and they choose the cheapest for you in order for their CEO to make the big bucks bonus!
CA: you just TOLD us who you are. Did you ever consider that your obsession with friends chatting is a real problem that you ought to get help for?
friends chatting? i could care less. just like union's little rant. None of you tell me anything. its the same old vile from your mouths and you dont like it when someone stands up to you bullies. now go cry a river
The only bullying being done here is by YOU! The same guy who at post 5.2 demands that posts by libs be collapsed and deleted.
Poor fellow, must be a difficult life for you. Now, do go out and take a walk. It will improve your mood.
I never said that. Au contraire, i am against collapsing and deleting, that is your area of expertise. try reading comprehension
newday - I'm thinking a walk will do nothing for CA. He's beyond simple pleasures!
A very sad fellow indeed that one must feel very sorry for.
Was it a rally or a commercial?
If Cain's claim is that the quality of the ingredients used in the making of his pizza compares to the quality of the individuals that make up the Tea Party..... He gets no argument from me.
New Day,
Good morning to you.
I gather from your post that I made the right decision to put CA on ignore after I read his very first post last month.
Love that button.
wha. I enjoy reading what you have to say. Most of the time it re-enforces my belief that the left on FR are unhinged, hypocritical bullies. When presented with reasonable arguments, you guys instantly go on the attack, belittling anyone who does not agree with beliefs. You tools have made the references that you own FR. "get off my porch' or to that effect. Tired of your tactics. you guys are closer to the KKK than anyone on the right with your DDI or Libsrus 'clubhouse'. Get off your highhorse you pompous azzes, only ones listening are your militia friends
Yes you did, Northstar and good morning to you. There are certain folks that post on FR that do not have the hamster firmly planted on the wheel.
Interesting, though. Poor CA admits to breaking the rules on FR because he is "special". The rules just don't apply to him, so even though being a re reg is an egregious violation of the rules, he flaunts that status, and then accuses OTHERS of bullying.
You just can't make this stuff up.
break the rules? what rules? COH? LOL ok Newday get back to me when you look up hypocrisy. See being a rereg is going to be hard to prove, SINCE I AM NOT ONE. boy you guys are dense.
Good try CA.
keep chasing your tail, like in your avatar
CA - you mean hypocrisy like "Government needs to stay out of our lives and let us live how we want and make our own choices", except we need to make abortion illegal, gays shouldn't be allowed to serve or get married.
not at all DC, i dont care about abortion. Roe v Wade will always stand as it should. Should the GOv pay for it. No. Gays getting married. Not a biggy there either, let them wont hurt me. As for serving, they always have. DADT served as a COMPROMISE and protected in my opinion both sides.
But get back to me when you want to discuss the real important issues right now. like the econ.
Discussing the economy with a republican? Might have better luck discussing brain surgery with a janitor.
The GOP?RNC Economic Policies of "Tinkle Down Economics" is out to sea. It also puts the Economic Safety Net for those that are unable to defend themselves under water. The "Richie Rich" Ryan Economic Plan puts the Middle Class, the Working Poor, the elderly, and the disabled out on a economically leaking raft. Isaac is very upset that the GOP/RNC "Hoodlum's On The Hill" had voted to destroy Medicare in 2010. He is now showing his large waves of economic, poltical, social, and cultural disappointment with the GOP/TB. Isaac is very upset that "Romulian Romney" has NOT earned a single paycheck of his own, and has a history of stealing/investing the hard earned money of others. Isaac is very upset that the Tea Beggers want to destroy Women's Richts, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Isaac wonders why the GOP/RNC do NOT believe in equal pay for all?
What do you we ain't got the right ingredients in Washington???
http://www.opensecrets.org/lobby/top.php?indexType=s
seriously Pizza man? Your god awful Godfather's pizza was so bad that as of about 10 years ago, nearly all of them in western washington state closed down. they used to be everywhere - but no more. Why? Because the food was terrible.
So before you claim that you know what you're talking about in Washington DC - go fix your damm pizza. Then we may believe that you know what you're talking about.
They send the crazies to rally the crazies. You won't see the mainstream folks at this type of "rally".
And isn't there a law against campaigning for a particular candidate in churches with tax free status?
GOP Romney/Ryan doesn't need TP to wipe their asses!
this is why the DNCows taliban was going to tampa.
....the got the idea from the taliban in afghanistan.....the DNCows was going to throw acid on the faces of republican party members.
(A political parody song by Bruce-1628250, to The Oscar Mayer ad song.)
No Amy. In the meaning of "Romulian Romney" it is the shining "Bain Bought" Mansion on the hill.
They should have played this for that crowd... at least it is entertaining.

Just for laughs.. Hey Willard, has anyone asked to see you sporting your Highway Patrolman's uniform?
" " has anyone asked to see your tax returns?

" " has anyone asked to see you in your "Magic Underwear"?
" ' has anyone ever asked to see your fathers record on big government?
Brother Romney, isn't campaigning fun!
gee...all that stuff...and obama is still losing.
Just for laughs "Honest" Dave........
As the Obama campaign and the media continue to press Mitt Romney to release more of his tax returns, and to suggest--without a shred of evidence--that he is a “felon,” it is worth noting how much critical information Barack Obama has withheld from view--both as a candidate in 2008, and during his term in office. Here is a Breitbart News top ten list of things that Obama has refused to release (a complete list would fill volumes):
10. State senate papers. In the 2008 primary, Obama criticized Hillary Clinton for not releasing papers from her eight years time as First Lady--but failed to produce any papers from his eight years in Springfield. “They could have been thrown out,” he said.
9. Academic transcripts. His supposed academic brilliance was a major selling point, but Obama (by his own admission) was a mediocre student. His GPA at Occidental was a B-plus at best, and his entering class at Columbia wasweak. Can he prove his merit?
8. Book proposal. Obama’s literary agent claimed he was “born in Kenya”--forsixteen years. His original book proposal exists--biographer David Maraniss refers to it--and seems to have embellished other key details of his life. Yet it has never been released.
7. Medical records. In 2000, and again (briefly) in 2008, GOP presidential candidate Sen. John McCain released thousands of pages of his medical records. Obama, who had abused drugs and continued smoking, merely provided a one-page doctor’s note.
6. Small-dollar donors. In 2008, the McCain campaign released the names of donors who had contributed less than $200, though it was not required to do so. But the Obama campaign refused, amidst accusations it had accepted illegal foreign contributions.
5. The Khalidi tape. In 2003, Obama attended a party for his good friend, the radical Palestinian academic Rashid Khalidi. The event featured incendiary anti-Israel rhetoric. The LA Times broke the story, but has refused to release the tape--and so has Obama.
4. The real White House guest list. Touting its transparency, the Obama White House released its guest logs--but kept many visits secret, and moved meetings with lobbyists off-site. It also refused to confirm the identities of visitors like Bertha Lewis of ACORN.
3. Countless FOIA requests. The Obama administration has been described as “the worst” ever in complying with Freedom of Information Act requests for documents. It has also punished whistleblowers like David Walpin, who exposedcronyism in Americorps.
2. Health reform negotiations. Candidate Obama promised that health care reform negotiations would be televised on C-SPAN. Instead, there were back-room deals woth millions with lobbyists and legislators--the details of which areonly beginning to emerge.
1. Fast and Furious documents. After months of stonewalling Congress, Attorney General Eric Holder asked President Obama to use executive privilege to conceal thousands of documents related to the deadly scandal--and Obama did just that.
In addition to the above, Obama and his campaign have lied about many facts about his past--his membership in the New Party; his extensive connections with ACORN; and his continued relationship with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright, among other examples. Obama’s own memoir is filled with fabrications. And now he is lying about his opponent’s honorable record in business. He--and the media--have no shame.
geez Keck - GOP says Obama is worst President in History and Romney is only tied?
pretty good since Romney isnt president
KECK,
Yeah, really makes you wonder - especially after 8 years of GWB/Cheney's totally destruction of our great country . I guess some people never learn!
SSmithlg,
cut and paste one shred of "evidence" from the Obama campaign where they are suggesting that Brother Romney is a felon? I don't think you can..
obamas campaign manager , stephanie cutter, said "romney is a felon"
I call bull@!$%#!
Provide a source or STFU!
Just like the Lunatic tea baggers to twist words and try to make them facts.
Is that the kind of campign Flipper Robbme will run. The person with the most lies and ads win.
KEEK,
It is interesting that you chose to debate the "Romney felon" sidenote - you must agree that the annihilation of this great country by Bush/Cheney is a well documented fact. Thank you for capitulating..
Where the heck did keck run off to?
Typical right wing nut, when challenged on their BS, they pull a Houdini!
I think what she was talking about was that not reporting off shore bank accounts to the IRS was a felony. But they granted amnesty to the people who were hiding their money in off shore banks if they would start reporting them. So Romney dodged a bullet.
A political parody song by Bruce-1628250, to the tune of Thumbalina
One of the best lines heard lately was from Izzy Kapp, a now
retired shop foreman from the old Republic Steel Plant in Cleveland. At 17
Izzy immigrated to the USA from England after his family escaped from Poland
when he was 12. A more proud American can not be imagined. He often said,
"I am overwhelmed by the opportunities my county offers me!"
All five of his children graduated from college. One got an
MS, another got a JD, and the third an MD degree. It took Izzy 13 years of
night school to get a college degree.
When a young Black kid was being laid off at the end of his 90
day evaluation period he confronted Izzy in the huge Republic Steel Plant
break room at lunch and tried to intimidate him with all sorts of NAACP /
ACLU / Etc threats.
"I want this on-the-record in front of everybody." the young
man said. "You' firin' me 'cause I'm Black!"
Without even looking up from his sandwich the foreman said,
"No. We hired you because you're Black. We're firing you
because you're useless."
Hey Barrak, If the shoe fits.......
ROMNEY/RYAN 2012... it's time to get America Back To Work!
SS-mith lg
I've seen where you get your cut and paste material, and it's just plain disgusting!
Unfortunatley, you are only one of many like minded "Christian Conservatives".
Funny how some people believe that bringing back the Bush's economic policies will get America back to work. Do they think that making abortions and contraceptives illegal will make republican economic policies better? Or is it the magic underwear?
The beast (666) is upon us, FOX news F=6, O (15th letter)1+5=6, X (24th letter)2+4=6. Revelations tells us the beast has 7 heads and 10 horns and 10 crowns which equal 27. If Romney iselected he will be the 27thelected Republican president. (Remember the Democrat- Republicans and the Whig Parties both turned into the Republican Party). FOX (Murdock) also owns 27 television stations in the USA. Revelation 13.1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
Hosea 4:6 God Says, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget
thy children. FOX is the Blasphemer and you if believe its lies, you allow it to destroy your knowledge. God says, my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.

AND DON'T FORGET THIS...

The majority of Americans do not consider the Tea Party to be the best ingredients either, though, so if neither the GOP party itself or the Tea Party are the best ingredients, then what is the compelling argument if any to vote Republican?
This only reinforces most people's views that sticking with the Democrats is at worst the lesser of two evils, and more likely a continuation of the economic recovery, albeit slower than any of us like.
The Teabaggers ARE the best the Republicans have. They don't have much, and these squealing losers are the best they got. Pretty sad.
Let's see - 500 show up for Cain and Bachmann
10,000 show up for Ron Paul...
next!
The ONLY reason 500 people showed up is that they were promised free pizza and guaranteed it wasn't GodFathers!
Kool Aid Party
From the Article above:
This statement is beyond frighting. It absoulutely is astounding, that the Tea (Kool Aid) Party thinks they are better than everyone else.
No, Ms. Bachmann. You are wrong.
I'm a Democrat. Democrats LOVE our Constitution. Democrats FIGHT for the Constitution. Democrats LIVE by the Constitution. Democrats LOVE America.
How DARE you claim the US Constitution for your own political party. SHAME ON YOU!!!
And Democrats are going to win in a LANDSLIDE this November.
Salud.
The best ingredients, are:
Infidelity Sausage, Outsoursing America Olives,
Barefoot and Pregnant Pepperoni, and Plenty of Newts Special Sauce.
mmmm, I love Lowest Common Denominator Pizza.
And DON'T FORGET THE
I think Hermain Cain made a good point but I know he does not have the credibilty you guys like so much. He is more of a praise and worship preacher-like speaker whos focus on the emotional aspect rather than the political. He will make good points but because of the way he talks all you Libs make a mockery of him. Mr.Obama is not the man who should be leading this country. He lacks experience, he lacks compassion towards the people, and he lacks the ability to bring this country back from this economic depression. I can only hope Romney does a better job if he is elected but I have my doubts about him too. We need a leader in this country who will crate jobs,minimize the role of government, and allow people the oppurtunity for a career .
minimize the role of government - Robbeme and Ryan want to increase miltary spending from 535 Billion to 976 Billion is that the small government you are asking for. Stupid
Learn the facts then come and post her.
The beast (666) is upon us, FOX news F=6, O (15th letter)1+5=6, X (24th letter)2+4=6. Revelations tells us the beast has 7 heads and 10 horns and 10 crowns which equal 27. If Romney iselected he will be the 27thelected Republican president. (Remember the Democrat- Republicans and the Whig Parties both turned into the Republican Party). FOX (Murdock) also owns 27 television stations in the USA. Revelation 13.1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
Hosea 4:6 God Says, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget
thy children. FOX is the Blasphemer and you if believe its lies, you allow it to destroy your knowledge. God says, my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.

Obama/Biden 2012
@solution. So we are at name calling now. I never said Romney was the man to make government saller. I said we need a man to do that. I do think Romney should be given a chance. If Romney gets us 6 trillion dollars in debt his first term I say kick him out. Obama has put in place lots of policies but America does not have the money. we cannot afford to pay for every bum who is not looking for a job. America cannot afford to pay for every teen mother who DECIDES to get pregnant. I do not think Romney will be the best Republican ever but he can't be much worse than Mr. Obama.
BTW I never once insulted you though I had every right for you taking me out of context. You need to mature instead of hating everyone who does not agree with you.
"I just think it was a good joke. I dont think he was trying to bring up the birther issue. hey, cut the man some slack, he's running for president. he can crack a joke every once in a while," Cain said.
No, birth certificate jokes are obviously bringing up the birther (tiny minds) issue. Clearly. Cain is too stupid to get it.
Cain and Bachmann lolololololololololololololololololololololololololololololol!!! The best of the GOP!!! lolololololol
damage123, those questions you asked will soon follow if the tea party/ taliban party is to win control. yes, and when hitler did the same to jews and gays and gypsys the german citizens thought that would never happen to them, and now all cults are band from germany.
check out the taliban ideology and compare it to the tea/taliban party and i'm sure you will agree.
