Degaine, I do not mean to impune you. I will apologize now if that's how you took it.
We are partisan opposites, but that's cool.
I DO resent the Repub party and their support for the crap you illucidated.
Me and you, we'd prolly get along well....

Hi bluering,
One quick comment, while I am definitely very far to the left in my points of view, I am most certainly not partisan - I feel no allegiance to the Democrat party or any party for that matter, and feel free to disagree and criticize a candidate or elected official whatever their party affiliation.
That written, thanks for your post, for both the apology and sincerity.
And I agree, I bet we would get along just fine, teaming up to climb or just over a beer.
Cheers.

I'm tired.
I have paid taxes all year along with my wife. And I do not have any exemptions other than myself.
As a result of paying taxes from every f*#king paycheck I have to pay an additional $1500 to the Fed for my family.
I don't mind not paying my fair share. But c'mon!!!!
How about the food-stamp/welfare cases??? I f*#king work all day AND DO MY FAIR SHARE!
Maybe we should review people sucking off the gov't teet more closely. I have a feeling there are mucho able bodied people capable of doing the jobs "that Americans aren't willing to do".
I am sick of paying for this shit!!!

If you didn't claim a deduction for your wife and child, you need to fix that Bluering.
The two of us get the honor of sending an additional $2100 off in taxes. If you don't mind, we'd like to claim your wife and child on our form if you aren't going to. That would ensure a refund for us!!! :)

Me, too.
Any chance I can get my money back on this boondoggle? Didn't think so.

Communism; is not a threat it’s just a phony form of government that tries to make people think everything is fair and equal.
Democracy; free and equal representation of people. Not true.
Dictatorship; at least you know who you are getting f*#k by!
George has got it right; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYIC0eZYEtI
So blue buddy;
You sound like a pretty intelligent person maybe you should put your effort in to something you can do something about?
Although I do enjoy your rants. LOL!

I think you're confusing dependents and exemptions. We do claim John as a dependent. But I'm told by my tax-preparer that the only way to avoid end-of-year payment to the Fed is to declare my filing status as zero.
This wasn't the case in that past when I was single with no children. I declared 1 exemption and always got something back. Something has changed.
And Apogee, the pic of the dying girl in the arms of a US medic was targeted by terrorists. She died despite the medic's attempt to save her.
But I suppose that is our fault for being there. There would be no killing of innocent kids if we weren't there. Keep up the visual propaganda though!

Blue;
Did you think about what I posted? I feel the same as you from time to time. Let’s face it the republicans have no chance in beating Obama. 99.9% of blacks are going to vote black and 70% of the Latinos are going to vote for Obama because he’s not white, because of the white right stand on immigration. Obama is so confident He has already said he is not going to debate. Why? Because it can only hurt him, and he doesn’t have to. Reason is because the Republican Party is so out of touch. The entire GOP Candidate list is fighting which one of them is the most conservative. They don’t get the fact that the American view of conservatism is someone betting them over the head with the Bible. That’s why the left wing Dems are keeping the abortion and the women’s right to choose in the for front. This keeps the people’s eye off the ball which should be focused on the economy and foreign policy. Once that line of bull sh#t wears out it’s not like Obama is unprepared. For example; If the economy comes to the for front (Bush f*#ked that up) the Americans still buy it so why Not? Or if that seems Weak the congress is holding up his fool proof legislation which equals to more spending more debt and printing more money. Knowing we have short memories and forgot the Dems had all control the first two years of his administration. Foreign policy is bit more complex but it starts off the same way. (Bush) Except for killing Osama that was all Obama of course. The only country he hasn’t apologized to is Israel and that because he thinks that they are the problem in the middle east. It couldn’t possible be the Iranians or Syrians both of which have killed more of their own people than cancer. Or maybe Hezbollah or the Muslim Brotherhood (The prelude to Alcada) you see it don’t matter. The Dems got it locked up four more years of poverty. Remember You and I are not in the club.

Dawg, I read both of your posts addressed to me.
I disagree a bit. Americans are still a largely religious people, but they do not like an overly preachy prez (like Santorum). So the current Repubs should shut the hell up about that.
Bush was indeed a fiscal socialist. The current crop MUST vocalize how they are different than the socialist (Bush) and the Marxist (Obama). They must ride this issue primarily. It is THE issue of this election, not contraceptives or abortion.
I do not think it's in the bag for Obama. We just need a candidate who can articulate all of Obama's failed policies, directly attacking them and adding solutions. They must also confront the media's lack of focus on his failed promises. THEY must illustrate the failures. Remind people.
The question is, who is capable of doing this? And who doesn't turn the stomachs of average voters (Newt).
At this point I lean Romney, but I just wonder if the 'nice guy' can get down and dirty with the Axlerod machine.
Oh, and there are many blacks disenfranchised with Obama. They are the professional blacks, and the same goes for thinking Latinos (I hate that word...). The pandering, race-baiting, and class warfare only works on some.

"We just need a candidate who can articulate all of Obama's failed policies..."
Which policies could you be referring to?
Dragged the economy back from the brink: Check
Unemployment lowest since before he took office: Check
Do away with DADT: Check
Get out of Iraq: Check
Get out of Afghanistan: Partial check
Put a bullet in the left eye of OBL: Oh, yeah...badasss!!
Historic healthcare reform: Check
Consumer protection measures in place: Check
If Shrub had this kind of record, you guys would place a gold bust on Mt. Rushmore.
"At this point I lean Romney..."
At this point, you're choosing the least offensive pile of shite...and you know it.

The majority of Americans disagree with you on several of those. I think you know that too. They are not positives, and some are just untrue.

I agree, but the biggest pile is the one I'll be voting against...Obama.

Blue;
If think thing are bad now. The next four years he’ll have no reelection to contain him. Mark my words the first order of business will be to strip the military and raise taxes.
Jimmy Carter all over again. It took 20 years to rebuild the military after he got done with it. tTaxed up the a*# with 5 dollar gas and no jobs. It will improve the immigration problem it won’t be any better here mize well stay in Mexico.

Dogtown, I agree. Things will continue to get worse if Obama is re-elected.
At the rate we're going it will be impossible to recover from Obama's policies. He MUST be removed from office.
I honestly think it is Obama's plan to destroy the America I grew up in.

You guys are such drama queens. Truth be told it's been a fairly bland presidency. And not to let high school civics get in the way of paranoia, but it's congress that raises/lowers taxes, not the president.

The only thing "epic" about this one is the epic amount of dipshit stupidity flowing out of the drama queen contingent.
We got Ringalingadingdong doing his usual "I ken out-dumbass the biggest moron among ya" act, and DogClown whining about taxes when they have gone down under this president, gas prices while driving a big ass truck, and no jobs after moving to BFE, Wy-by-god-oming.
You couldn't make this sh#t up if you tried.

Usually, yes. But have you noticed Obama's recent rhetoric about doing things himself if Congress fails to act? Isn't that dangerous to have a prez even say that???
And for 2 years, the most damaging, the prez had a very compliant House and Senate. He proposes sh#t and they just go along. Feel good crap that is bankrupting us!
