Iâm going to start an Earther Movement. I demand proof that Romney was born on Earth. His birth certificate isnât good enough. It could be holoshopped.
Read a sci-fi story once about aliens who came disguised as humans. Check out our way of operating. And, as they could create gold or other commodities, just started buying up the planet. No matter how high real estate prices went, they just kept on buying, and evicting people from the property they now owned. All sorts of interesting implications there âŠ
From what I can understand, which is not much, if asteroids and such did not strike Earth after it cooled down, there would not be any life on Earth since te heat of forming it would sterilize the planet. Does that mean that all life on Earth is alien to the planet?
The aliens have already landed, which has been well chronicled in various reliable sources. FYI it happened under the GW Bush administration, while the US was invading Iraq.
I have heard many folks observe that Romney does not seem to be of planet Earth. He doesnât seem to express himself as an earthling. He refers to sport, rather than sports. He doesnât know what a doughnut is, it is a tasty chocolate thing. He comments on the size of trees as being just the right size, etc He often insists on singing even though he is tone deaf.
Actually, there have been far more deportations under Obama than there were under Bush. You can have your own opinion, but you canât have your own factsâŠ
Obama supported the Dream Act, which involves the children of illegals, who were brought here as young kids through no fault of their own. Even in their case, there are conditions for them to stay here.
We didnât kill Osama Bin Laden on Bushâs watch. Bush got to the point where he said he didnât know where he was and he didnât care. We got him on Obamaâs watch. It was done surgically, with precise detail. He was buried at sea. No one can go to a place and mourn for him. It was a wonderful thing.
I consider Obama to be not a hawk or dove, but a wise owl. He uses force when it is needed. There are many liberals who think he is too tough, so he gets it from both sides. The use of drones has been very controversial indeed.
Did he affirm or fight for what? I canât answer your question without context. Obama has to deal with the gridlock of Congress. He does not have a clear majority as I have stated in the past. Even when he did have 60 votes in the Senate, many of the Democratic votes were Blue Dogs, not to be counted on. You must feel very miserable about the world if you think that the Dems and the GOP are the same. I donât share this view at all. Obama isnât perfect but he is a far better alternative to Romney.
^^SCOTUS and certain legislative actions do stand out over time. Under CARTER (yes) a âmust passâ bill was the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978. It wasnât used much by Carter, but Reagan maximized it, as did GWH, and W. The destructive portion was allowing 25% of Political Appointees at high levels in agencies, to be converted to Civll Service every year. THAT was the destruction that led to appointees staying on permanently, and running agencies, into the ground.
Obama administration has:âą Ended an eight-year war in Iraq that killed 4,500 American troops, wounded 32,000+ and cost more than $800 billion.âą Located and killed Osama bin Laden with zero casualties.âą Killed Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen â the American traitor cleric tied to Fort Hood shooter and Times Square bomber.âą Continued to dismantle al Qaeda by picking off top commanders. More drone strikes at al Qaeda in three years than whole previous adminstration combined. 70%+ of top al-Qaeda command removed from field.âą Allowed no successful terrorists strikes on US soil.âą Helped Libyan rebels achieve total victory over Moammar Gadhafi at low cost and minimal involvement of US forces.âą Negotiated a difficult balancing act between maintaining US interests yet supporting democratic transition in âArab Springâ uprisings.âą Doubled Border Patrol manpower on US-Mexico border from 2004 levels to 21,000 today.âą Coordinated and implemented strangling sanctions on Iran and by covert means has stalled the development of nuclear weapons.âą Successfully removed, with select allies, tons of weapons-grade uranium and plutonium from Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Chile, Czech Republic, South Africa, and others. Now stored awaiting disposal in US, safe from possible terrorist acquisition.âą Recently completed highly successful trip to the Asia-Pacific region. Strengthened American support among allies nervous about growing Chinese military power. Dispatched 2,500 American troops to Australia. Nevertheless continuing to talk quietly with China in order to keep tensions low.
So, you are saying in the top half of your rather long post that the deportations under Obama have almost exceeded those of Bush in his entire 8 years in office. In the 2nd half of your post, you are pointing to projections, which are not the same as what has in fact happened.
Standard operating procedure. Mittens is not a public servant, he is a very capable tax dodger and made his millions doing just that. That is why he wonât show us his tax returns!
âThe suggestion that OHB is an effective leader would only be found in a comic⊠becauses it just so laughable.âÏOHB = Orangutan the Honorable Boehner, right?ÏWell, he is a clown, all right. And laughable. Why donât you start a comic strip about Boehner the Orangutan, Gresch?
Sorry, peeps, any comment over three column inches I donât read. Try to be succinct.And rather than feeding trolls, or talking about not feeding them, canât we all just agree not even to read them and flag them on the way past? (FWIW)
aliens would never come to earth to invade they just bomb us from afar with our own asteroids and comets we have in the outer solar system. then they just take the resources that are out in space if that is what they are after. or they kill us all and sell our planet off.
âProven himself to be a proven stable leader during a crisis.â What crisis. Heâs done nothing at all. And that is about the best thing that can be said of him.
âA Republican and Tea Party favorite, [GOP Congressman Allen West of Florida] was asked at a local gathering how many of his fellow members of Congress are âcard-carrying Marxists or International Socialists.â ¶ He replied , âI believe thereâs about 78 to 81 members of the Democrat Party who are members of the Communist Party.

Ok, I understand that is your point of view. I think he is doing the best he can and he has tons of obstructionists in his way. I donât think it is as easy as you seem to think. I donât know where you live, but I can tell you that here in GOP land I appreciate him a bit more than some other Americans who might live in a more liberal area in the country. Getting a Democrat in office at all is a heavy lift here in Kansas, so I feel that I have some idea of what he is up against. Our KC Congressman Cleaver was actually spat upon by someone in DC while he was on his way to vote for the Affordable Care Act. He was undaunted of course and went on to vote as he wanted to vote. The other side is rather barbaric in their approach. We arenât dealing with the Rockefellers and Teddy Roosevelts of old anymore. I believe Obama is doing the best he can but he doesnât walk on water.
I figured it was about time for Ole Gary to start his campaign to badmouth Romney. You can just bet he will keep it up till itâs all over in November. The guy must be paid extra to smear slime on anybody who is non-Liberal. But, itâs okay in here because it gives those same Liberals something to comment on and to post little diatribes here in a site for people who want to read something funny. Not funny! Putrifying. But, thatâs the way Gary does it. COMICS? Really sickening. FOO!!
âThe guy must be paid extra to smear slime on anybody who is non-Liberal.âUh, no. Trudeau just simply portrays things as they are. Many of us new Bush would get us into a war, and we were right. We see the same ham-handed demeanor and attitude from Romney.
You canât run a country like a business, no matter how the right-wing likes to claim so.
I remember Lieberman holding up the bill over a public option. I agree that single-payer makes the most sense, but I donât think it would have made it through Congress.
