Ah, The Onion. Always hilarious!

There really isn't much difference between Romney and Obama on "social" issues and health care.

There's even an Onion story about Romney using a time-machine to go back and kill the liberal version of himself.

The only difference is that Romney still believes in protecting and enriching the aristocracy at the expense of everyone else.

I'll probably sit this election out. It's all about the money anyway. K-Street money is what matters, not votes.

Well... votes are what matter, it is just that people are significantly more susceptible to propaganda than they like to think, and K-Street money buys a lot of propaganda these days, i.e. votes.

True that.

Dan8267 says

If the demographics are right, a message can be sent that in order to stay in office, you have to respect the rights of the citizens.

For that message to get sent in the way suggested enough people would have to be organized on the topic so that when the polls on votes are run it is clear to the outgoing candidate that their loss was not because their opponent was "better".

Probably enough people would have to be organized that they could viably get a third party candidate elected...

Dan8267 says

Ideally a third party would win the presidency, but that's not going to happen due to the screwed up elections we hold. Over 200 years, and our country still hasn't figured out how to run elections. Pathetic.

Yeah, agreed.

However, the problem is that most -- I am sure there are a few exceptions, Elizabeth Warren comes to mind -- who want to get into office probably should not be allowed to hold office. I think that it would be interesting to see social media/internet used to "draft" people into office through write in campaigns. The problem of organizing enough people to get the message across and make it work remains.

I think you have illustrated why the GOP does not get the Jewish vote.

You're wrong. GOP gets a lot of Jewish votes. Bush won Florida in 2004 precisely because of Jewish votes. Rabbies went thru Jewish nursing homes and care centers agitating old Jewish voters to vote for Bush, because he is "good for Israel". (Not only in Florida).

In 2008 tons of e-mails to American voters with any Jewish connection were sent from Israel asking to vote against Obama.

Never responded to this. No, I'm not.

The Jewish vote is one of the most reliably Democratic there is. Generally 75% go for the Ds, making them the 2nd most reliable behind African-Americans.

Like we really have a choice who is president. what you think you are actually voting for who is the next president?

RON PAUL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The rest of these people are turds. Or worse, Realtors.

I think that guy with the sign is right about voting.

The rest of these people are worse than Realtors.

Ron Paul wants to take us back to the robber baron days of the late 1800s.

Do you want your kids working in coal mines with no safety regulations?

LOL - also very true.

I like you Rowe your an ok guy. When I find signs of intelligent life. I get estatic. I watched Rupert Murdock chase himself through the press the other day no one said anything about it.

I think we can agree Ron Paul is a great "concept". A rational intelligent thought and a guy you can turn into a squirrel.

Yes they can do all that and more right in front of your eyes.

They don't really dig mines anymore. They use strip mining now.

"While you were sleeping they were busy stealing".

See part of the deal is its all people you see everything about humanity in the debt merchant news. Really the crazy bastards are carving the earth up. Stealing things in many more place than say Iraq. Thats what you do know. Stuff like this here goes on all over the world.

See basicially the religon stuff and everything that concerns humans is the shallow end of the pool. Like in Afganistan its about strip mining. They hold that one close. Same thing in Libya. In Iraq it is fairly obvious its about oil. They want to stay in Afganistan till 2014 to make sure their strip mining operations are secure. The Russians went in for the mining the first time and got chased out with a big stinger show at the end. The Russians can't fight worth anything. So they are back again with the guys that get things done and the U.N. wolfpack. It really very easy to understand. They sell philosophy and steal like there is no tommorow. So anything of religions or philosophy or humanity they are thrilled to death. Show and tell what they are really up to they don't like it so much.

So getting upset at an Obama. That says "We don't want anything in Afganistan". Is pointless to me. The government is in debt to the likes which the world has never seen. The "government" is a wooden "monkey" on a string. Oh they say you'll go or we will put your countries balls in a vice and you'll squeal so hard they will be able to hear you from Japan. The whole point may be is they carve up the earth. Can never get enough or have stuff blown up because they are insane. Your sane you would not do those things. So you might want to consider the fact the MF's are off their "rockers". Especially in light of the obvious things like seismic disaster.

Fracking sells "well" in Texas then again so do UFO's. "Honey whys the ground shaking?" "They are fracking". Yea right. They have their own "fault line" going. They aren't really sure how it got there. It swallows up road sometimes. Then again Texas is oil country so its not good business to talk about such things. Hey debate it. As far as I'm concerned there is no debate. They are a bunch of fucking thieves thats where it starts and ends..

Then there is the Nevada desert and of course nothing goes on out there. At least in the movies and on television.

See this is what the common guys says. "Hey this is all great it comes to us". Of course it does in the form of debt. Hey thats your mess. The other thing is no one fucking consumes in the quantities they are taking. So they store it. Mountains of things they have taken all stored. Hey labor for food. Why have that much? No reason really. It's just that they are crazy as a roachs in a bowl full of Jello. You have to live on the earth. You might want to pay attention.

Deal is they have humanitarian cover stories and struggles in every fucking country they are stealing in. They don't like that known. Hey make the topic. I have one for you sticking around Afganistan with your Commonwealth buddies and the Russians. Strip mine that place and pay the fucking price. Strip mine or mine anywhere same thing.

Well Romney had the most money of the Republican candidates...

Why was this question even ever asked if people are just going to "Dislike" answers they don't like?

I think that sentiment is the Liberals GREATEST failing. For a group that sure touts freedom of speech a lot. You guys sure don't like to hear what the other half of the country has to say. AND I seriously DOUBT, I'm the only one that notices.

The left has tried several times over the years to shut down Rush including various boycotts

Actually isn't that (free markets) a republican virtue? I have the freedom to not buy a product that funds his hate.

A free market economy would dictate that if an advertiser chooses to sell their wares on a program that preaches hate and intolerance, that there might be business ramifications to that? In fact there were and many advertisers pulled out. Rush can say whatever he wants, those on the left like free speech even more than those on the right since our voices are typically in the minority.

Christians can't pray in school

Christians can absolutely pray in school. What they can not do however, is mandate that I pray in school.

PolishKnight, for what its worth, before you post, you might consider writing something that's less easily torn to shreds. I could dis-em-bowel your entire post point by point without even breaking a sweat.

Yet another thread on Patrick.net where poor fucks defend the rich.

The system is working.

Has no one heard of gary johnson?
Well people deserve the government they get.

The sad thing is the big Pac money even hurts the Republican Party (at the pre-primary level), since the big money won't allow an "Eisenhower", a "Ford" or even a "Reagan-style" Republican to be elected anymore.

Shame on the democrats and Obummer for letting their fraudster buddy stay free after defrauding clients of millions, bringing some to face bankruptcy. Restore the rule of law in this banana republic already ;)
