Defending the “Palin Pick”

<<<We want people who are eligible to vote, people who are living not dead, people who will
vote only one time. We don’t care wheather it is Democrate, Republician or Independent.<<<

Millie, that may be what *you* want but that's not what the leading Republicans want. They don't want the poor, the black and increasingly, the latino voter into the voting booth because they tend to vote Democratic.
<<<Wheather you want to believe it or not, it has be uncovered during the 2008 election that
there was alot of voter fraud, of boxes of ballots uncover that had been put in the back room
which had not been counted. And what about the Black Panthers intimidation and that the
Justice Dept under Holder did not touch it with a ten foot pole. What about the voter ID
in Texas and other states that is under attack by this Admin and Eric Holder. We have
always had to have ID in our states and many others and I for one want that to happen so
my legal vote is counted.
I will say one thing about the Osama thing, Obama is looking bad taking all of the credit for
that call. Without the Bush Admin and the intelligence that was collected on his watch the
Osama thing would not have happened under this admin. All of this was in play before
Obama took office. The timing had to be right and it happen to have fallen on Obama’s watch.
He had to make the call and did it reluctantly.<<<

The rest of this is non-stop fox talking points and I'm not going to bother with it. If I thought I could get through to you, I might consider wasting my time; but we both know that's not gonna happen, so…

<<<Obama in the Illinois State Senate making his typical decisive vote: “Uh, uh…present!”<<<

This is a spiteful lie. Barack Obama was a very good state senator. He worked on ethics reform, lobbyists access to congresspeople and even welfare reform. Among dozens of other things. This is just petty as hell.

<<<Who was the “someone” who got Obama into Columbia after flunking Occidental College? <<<

This is BS, too. You know, having read several of your other posts, I'd began to get a picture of you as being intelligent and open minded. This post took care of that.

<<<And how did he get two years credit going in after attending only one year, and then somehow getting into Harvard with mediocre grades? <<

Where are you getting this "mediocre grades" bs? Limbaugh? This reads like straight conspiracy stuff and frankly, I hadn't pegged you as one of "them." I was wrong. And so are you, btw.

<<<All of which of course lead to his stint at the University of Chicago as a senior lecturer (not professor) in constitutional law, which makes one wonder if he knew what he lectured about back then based on his recent criticisms of the Supreme Court (re; Obamacare constitutionality) taking on an “activist” role in striking down laws deemed unconstitutional, which is one of the natural duties of the court and has been done a number of times before. Maybe he just forgot.
Republicans want everyone who is eligible to vote to do so. But only citizens that are eligible. Why the Democrats want to prevent such measures as voter ID laws to make sure only people vote who legally can vote leaving the system open to fraud, is another indication that Dems are not interested in enforcing and upholding the law in such cases, but pandering for votes by any means necessary, including fraudulent votes.<<<

Again, BS. Republicans have long engaged in voter caging and suppression and every election cycle it gets worse and worse. They throw up many roadblocks to Dems exercising their constitutional right. Look up the Consent Decree from 1982, 1986. And, even though they agree not to do it, they can't seem to help themselves. Cutting registration times, early voting, same day registration, even reducing the open hours of DMV's and closing many DMV's in poor neighborhoods; targeting people whose homes have been foreclosed, etc. Huckabee even joked about letting the air out of tires of people you know will vote Dem. Republicans can talk a good game, that they want everyone to vote, they mean every Republican. And some Republicans have woken up to the games being instigated by their party and have changed parties. Others will believe the same old BS, that it's the Dems who perpetrate voter fraud, when the statistics show no such thing.

<<Obama has racked up a record 5 trillion dollars in the country’s debt (with nothing much to show for it) since taking office, which has caused our country’s credit rating to be downgraded for the first time ever. The greater the debt, the greater the deficit year to year to make up for and it climbs exponentially faster as the debt rises, now standing at about 16 trillion dollars and soaring almost beyond control. How does Obama plan to deal with bringing down the debt — in any meaningful way — without cutting programs, benefits and entitlements? Obamacare won’t help (as it was first advertised), as projections for it’s implementation keep rising and indicate plunging us further down the debt hole. How much more can taxes be raised before even more businesses and industry move, shrink, or die out completely from the burden? Not to mention the related effect on producing jobs — private sector jobs that in part create the nation’s wealth that pays for the government and allows it to exist.<<<

Sorry, this is just more fox talking points. Do you know how I can tell? By your blaming President Obama for our credit rating downgrade. It's ludicrous and I've spent far too much time posting to you already. I can explain and explain and clear up misinformation till my fingers bleed and it will never get through. You don't want to have an exchange of ideas, you want to tar and feather Obama and blame it all on him. It's a shame.
