Obama's Cult Followers On Tnet.


Mar 6, 2014, 5:54 PM

Barack could have performed live sex shows with 1st graders in his first term instead of making speeches with his teleprompters to them and you still would have voted for him in both elections. And he would have won.

Let that sink in.

I have no idea who the Pub. POTUS nominee will be, and don't even know if I would vote for him/her at this point or not. So, I wouldn't bet on ANY pub. at this point. But what I will bet on is that if a Pub. is elected POTUS, no matter who it is, I will criticize him/her and will not blindly support every thing he/she does and make excuses ad hominem for his/her screw ups.

Now, would you like to take that bet?

I'm going to answer this one even though I consider Obama disappointing at best as a President. I voted in 2008 against John McCain, a man whom I considered the best man running for either side in 2000 and would a h--l of a lot better than what we got, because I couldn't stand the idea of Sarah Palin one heartbeat from the White House. In 2012 I knew as soon I saw the Republican list of primary candidates that I would vote for Obama, or rather against the GOP nominee unless a dark horse showed up. They gave us a dismal set of losers to pick from: two far right dolts, Bachmann and Santorum; a crook, Newt; a demagogue, Paul; a cipher, Huntsman; and two Bush Jr. clones, Perry and Romney. The Republicans lost that election, Obama was in trouble with the far left wing of his own party and they really didn't show for him, but the GOP was too incompetent to take advantage.

So, you rationalize and twist yourself into a pretzel to show your voting twice for Obama was what? White guilt? Or just a liberal too cowardly to admit it. My guess is that you will be voting for the dem. in 2016. Can't you at least be honest about your liberal ideology?

Mar 7, 2014, 3:25 PM [ in reply to Re: Obama's Cult Followers On Tnet. ]

choice for the 2008 election. I agree that McCain was by far the better candidate to lead the country, but his horrible, horrible decision on his running mate basically did him in. I voted for him DESPITE him making that poor choice.

The 2012 thought process confounds me. 2008 left me shrugging and thinking "Well, I hope everyone is right about all the hope and change stuff." But in 2012 you knew what we had. Hard to imagine that you couldn't find ANYONE of those Republican candidates that you thought was worth taking a shot on as opposed to the last four years. I also don't understand calling Huntsman a "cipher" (literally, I don't know what you mean by that) and how anyone could call Romney a Bush Jr clone is beyond me. Maybe because he doesn't drink?

Mar 7, 2014, 9:24 PM

You know I love you guys. What do religious fundamentalists and political right wingers have in common? If you don't agree with them 100% on their beliefs, you must be with the other guys. Fundamentalists say if you don't follow the Bible, Quran, etc., exactly like them, you must be a non-believer. Political right wingers think that if you don't share their political philosophy to a tee, you must be a liberal. As a moderate, in my Christianity and my politics, I am to the Left of both groups(but then so is the middle ground), but that hardly makes a liberal(actually it might in my religion) politically. Yes I did vote for Obama twice and I explained my reasons, although I may have been a little hard on Huntsman in that post, I don't think that it was his fault that he became lost in that bunch of clowns as much as his being too unknown by virtually anyone. Also, although I don't always agree with him, I have respect for Ron Paul(something I don't have for his son). I found Romney, untrustworthy, and to be bluntly honest, a bit spoiled, ala Bush II. Also Bain's history of sending jobs offshore and their $10 million dollar tax write-off bailout in 2008 made me leery of another fox guarding the hen house. Also although I consider Ryan highly intelligent, I can't reconcile Christianity with Ayn Rand's "objectivist" philosophy, and honestly can't see how anyone can, as they are polar opposites. Yes I am a MODERATE. I am pro-choice and pro-gun. I support Obamacare and voter ID(Although I also support PACs revealing their contributors also). I am opposed to NSA and the "Patriot Act"(although that could make me leftist or libertarian). I support the death penalty and raising the minimum wage. I support welfare reform and removing government subsidies to corporations. I support a "flat rate" tax, but only if it is across the board with no loopholes for the wealthy. I am opposed to censorship in all forms whether it is from the right and called "morality" or from the left and called "political correctness". And I plan to vote for the person for President who convinces me that they can work with both parties to fix this mess that both parties are responsible for creating, I don't care which party he or she may be from. So I've said my piece. Have a nice night my friends.

I can't wait until Jan. 2017 when President Clinton is inaugurated. If it is possible for them to hate more, it will be then. I don't know if I will post here again (on P&R) until that time.

Good Post Walrus. However, being that you are in favor of a flat tax, would you not concede that it would be more of a burden on lower and middle income groups who would end up contributing a disproportionate amount of their income into taxation?

It also seems to me that the progressive tax rates of the 40, 50's and 60's encouraged business owners to invest more of their profits back into their company, or employee wages. At retirement, they could simply sell the business they built and assume a much lower capital gains tax, thus eliminating any incentive to gut their own company to line the pockets of themselves and their shareholders. -See Mitt Romney

Maybe there is a middle ground? This is a discussion Paul Ryan and Elizabeth Warren should be having IMHO.

You are so full of it. I don't think you have any real core priciples to which you are willing to not compromise. In any event, the one's who are intolerant of any one not buying 100% into their beliefs and ideology are the liberals. They will force you to believe like them or will pass laws forcing their beliefs on you or will bully you into their beliefs, etc. I won't waste my time in citing all the examples as it would not change your mind or that of any other liberal. Conservatives know what I'm talking about. The rest of you who live with yo haid up yo ### will never know.

Are you aware of just how absurd this comment seems in light of your other comments on this thread? YOU are the one calling me a LIBERAL because I don't 100% agree with YOU, not the liberals here, who probably disagree with me on gun control, welfare reform, voter ID, and the death penalty, calling me rightwing. Yes I believe in compromise and it has been the working basis for our country's government for 200+ years while countries with no compromise, they are called dictatorships or monarchies, have failed. Oh I have core principles and they are the just as powerful as yours(or Balm's to pick someone on the other side),the difference, I accept that other people's principles are just as right to them as mine are to me and that we should be able to make a compromise that works for both of us. That is the American way even as far back as th4e Constitutional convention, and that is what most Americans believe in. Like it or not, there are more of us in the middle than there are on the far right and left combined.

I'd say a person who voted for Obama twice is hardly in the middle. Just out of curiosity, since you thought Romney was so much like Bush and could not vote for him, and didn't like Huntsman who was definitely a liberal does that mean that you did not also vote for Bush? Have you ever voted for a Pub. for POTUS? Since your bar on POTUS liberalism in the past two elections has been Obama, I can't see how you have ever voted for a Pub.

Actually as embarrassing as it sounds now, my first Presidential vote was Nixon in 1968. I voted for Carter in 1976. I did not vote in 1972, 1980, 1984, or 2000, didn't like either guy. I voted for George Bush I in 1988. Clinton both times. Kerry in 2004. My last Republican Presidential vote was for McCain in the 2000 Primary election. There you have my voting history. Huntsman might have been okay, and was closer to my views than any other Republican, but I hardly consider him a liberal, and bluntly I saw no chance in him making it through the primaries. Only in the modern rightwing rush to disassociate themselves from disaster could anyone attempt to paint Bush II as a liberal or moderate. He was one of you and you probably voted for him. And if you read some of my earlier posts you will know that I consider him the WORST PRESIDENT of my lifetime, possibly ever. I didn't vote in 2000 because I met Al Gore in the course of work and considered him an arrogant blowhard on the basis of five minutes in passing. Romney was Bush II all over again, a pampered, spoiled rich boy who would have a puppet for another Rove, Cheney, or Rumsfeld while he played at being President. I voted against him, not for Obama, and I also voted in hopes that this loss might convince the GOP that they needed to give us better candidates who are either not too far right or puppets of big business.

You make a hyperbolic point about Barry doing sex shows and yet no hyperbole is needed for the counterpoint, which is:

You would hate Barry even if he killed Osama bin Laden, prevent all terrorist attacks at home every single year of his term, and sent the Dow up 8,000 points.

And you'd say he was worse than Dubya, the guy who couldn't catch Osama bin Laden (after letting him kill thousands of Americans), and who left the Dow LOWER than where Bill Clinton left it 8 years earlier.

You obviously do not know the meaning of a cult if you think any other politician before Obama had a Cult following. I would say Clinton was close, but still no where near Obama. It seems that liberals are more of a cult than anyone else as their ideology is really their religion and they pretty much worship at the altar of gubmint.

Balm, it is apparent that you are a full blown far left socialist/communist. I'm serious. As for your stereotyping me, as you do with anyone who is not a full blown socialist/communist, It shows what a complete elitist snob you are. You have no idea who I am, what my current financial condition happens to be, what my lifestyle is, what my childhood was like(yes, I grew up poor, but so did and so still do millions of children, but it does not make them abnormal as adults or criminals or dependents of the welfare state and it does not mean that millions of children from poor economic situations did not go on to be very successful adults in every sense of the word--including financially)and that's the elitist in you and the far left socialist in you to put me in your little world of failures because I don't conform to your socialist agenda.

Yes, I hate socialism and have absolutely no use for elitists like you. Get over it. When you start ruling the world, you can attempt to tell me how I should think, what I should say, what I am allowed to do. Until then, KMA, and go on thinking you are superior to me and those like me.
