I just installed a new dishwasher yesterday and then thanks to the inspiring words of our immortal leader I realized that I didn't install it, the guy who made the roads that brought it to the house were responsible. The teacher that taught me the difference between the water supply line and the drain was responsible. Heck, I have no idea what I was even doing there. I was probably just in the way.
It is admirable for you to point that out, shows you are humble. But when your neighbor points that out for you, he is being an Donkey.
That part of the speech ? You can tell what that part of the speech is about with not knowing what the complete speech is about ? How would you know if his words were taken out of context, ? C'mon newf, you can do it. If you want to. What was his speech about ? What point was it to drive home ?
Yes that part of the speech... I linked the full speech and the section of it that is being discussed is what a gave my opinion on. Not sure what you want from me I gave my opinion I can't help it if you won't accept it, I really don't mind if you disagree.

It's not that I am disagreeing with you. Yeah, the roads/bridges help. Yeah, a teacher might have. They did not help a business owner build his business. Well, they did. Just as much as the sun coming up everyday helped. What I want from you ? I have stated it succinctly many times. I have pointed at that a speech has a message. What is the context of his speech ? I will tell you. He wants to rile up those that wont and want, to hate those that can and do. He is trying to build support for taxing the richer more.

I'm looking forward to the debates. Ryan is going to expose Biden for the dumbass that he is. I'm hoping Romney will really take it to Obama as well.
We 'll see. At least Biden is funny. And anyway, he's not in charge unless Obama dies. Same thing for Ryan, unless he's running things from behind the door like Chney. Except for surviving the presidency it's like one vp said. It ain't worth a warm bucket of ****. I think it was Garner. He was before my time and I'm old.

Perhaps but I am tired of clowns at the top. Floppy ears and hair plugs may get a chuckle but when the laughing stops we are still bankrupt as a nation.
I for one will be looking foward to seeing these debates. I am more interested in what they have to offer us in solutions to save our nation than any mudslingging. I want answers and solutions, not crap! Any babboon can fling crap.

Of course not... because if I was doing it, I would have done a better job and it would have cost less. I assume of course, I haven't been there in over 2 years, but I guess I could probably do a better job.
I shouldn't complain though, Florida does a pretty good job taking care of itself.

Dude, are you kidding me??? It's going to be a DISASTER for Obama. I mean, let's be dead honest here... I'm expecting cricketts when the mic goes to Obama, or a bunch of studdering... I can't wait... it's going to be awesome. What's Obama going to do??? He's going to desperately try to deflect and not answer any of Romney's questions. He's going to try his damndest to avoid answering questions about his failed policy. I almost get goosebumps just thinking about it...

Once we get past the conventions, the race will take on a whole new flavor, like everyone before. Much of the ones who will vote are tuned in. They will be looking for a solution for the mess we are in. 8.2 and $16 trillion will get center stage. Three debates are scheduled, and they will be watched by most that will go to the booth.
Have a feeling there will be a big party after the election, do bring the crumpets!

If Romney needs Ryan for his ideas, we are in a world of trouble. Once Ryan is the VP, he will be sitting in the corner. Romney only needs him for the votes - I hope ... As for the backup-president, Ryan's fine and harmless. He certainly won't do anything worse than anyone else.

Oh my. You might be saved in spite of yourself, along with the rest of us. Yes, we are in trouble, . A businessman and an economist leading the nation. How awful. The Community Organizer in Chief hasn't been able to create a job nor get the Dumbocrat Senate (led by the Vice President) to pass a budget, much less get one vote for any of his budget submissions. Business men are usually referred to as CEO's, Chief Executive Officers. The usually have CFO's. Chief Financial Officers.

'Ya know, I have mixed feelings. I am not so sure that a government ought to be a business,, but, I think it should be run like one. Your logic escapes me.
