President Obama vs Mitt Romney

What are yall thoughts about the debate? Who you think won the first round? Do you think Mitt did a complete U-Turn during the debate or is it all lies? Do you think President Obama wasn't aggressive enough toward Mitt Romney? Who do you think will win at the end of the debate. What are some of the subjects you would like to hear them debate about?

Or send you hate mail...

Obama has set himself up for a defeat in the upcoming election and the best that the Republicans can do is Mitt Romney? Wow that's some choice we have come November 6th. Neither of the candidates has what it takes to turn things around, IMO. We desperately need a viable third party.

we need a hillybilly in the white house... policy would be own a shotgun, a fishing pole and a truck and you don't need a job... hillbilly's never lost a dime on wallstreet in 08... try telling a hillbilly to give a wallstreet investment firm his money and see what happens... he sure aint going to go for his fishing pole or his truck... a hillbilly would negotiate better trade deals with China just by saying take this offer, or get the fk off of our property, and by the way there's a small 17 trillion dollar fee for meeting with the Presedent... yea i think its time for a hillbilly to be Presedent... someone that knows how to stretch a dollar... someone that knows how to trim the fat... someone that knows about family... someone that knows hard times... someone that knows how to get things done... someone that knows someone that knows Bubba

Hillbilly for Presedent

Originally posted by Pinnacle Obama has single handedly destroyed the US economy and currency. At some point, some geniuses should be asking whether this has been done intentionally to tank America. This guys has a true resentment of capitalism. Someone should send him a book with US history. This country's foundation is pure capitalism. Without it, nothing.   This morning, I paid, for the first time ever, $5.09 per gallon of gas. Do you all know why gas is so high? It has nothing to do with oil prices. In order to pay for the debt this dumb**** has accumulated, the Federal Reserve has had to print US dollars 24/7 for the past 3 years. This has flooded the market with US dollars, thus reducing the value of our currency by 50% over the past 3 years. Therefore, commodities like gas, which cost $2.30/gallon 4 years ago, now cost over double the price. Remember, all this without the price of oil changing. Basically, anyone who was making $100K 3 years ago, if their salary is the same, they now have the same buying power today as someone who made $50K 3 years ago. All this why the cost of consumable is increasing since the US dollar is devalued into crap.   Let's take this a step further . . . the housing market. The housing market, which is one of the biggest sources of tax income to the Government is in the ****ter, not because of subprime loans, but because of the devaluation of the dollar. The Government, in order to not look like fools for making our US dollar worthless, deflected the issue blaming sub-prime mortgages. It's not like there isn't demand to purchase homes. However because everyone's money is now worth a pile of crap, they can no longer afford it. Their buying power has been crushed. So what's the solution Mr. Obama? Raise taxes (reducing personal income), limit the bank's lending abilities (preventing money from flowing to the masses), and raise costs of doing business (i.e., Affordable 'bull****" healthcare act, raising corporate tax, etc). As stated earlier, the Federal Reserve is priniting money at astronomical rates. If the free market is not getting the money, since there is no way to get it to them, where is it going? Answer: All to the US Government to run up more debt. If people don't realize that they are getting hosed by this President, they are just plainly and simply brainless.   So please, someone tell me, why the hell is anyone voting for Obama?

I will admit Romney's strategy was great and that's because he was trained in avoiding questions by being taught how to effectively "DANCE AROUND" the questions. I believe it did catch President Obama off guard, he prepared for the same manufactured Romney-Bot3000 he'd been accustomed to throughout this re-election term (fault of his own staff for not being prepared for the worst). As a result of the debate, we are now aware of a few things: Romney can count to seven, he has shaken the hand of an unemployed individual in Ohio (whom can't afford your tax or health care plans and probably needs planned parenthood), he has the ability to completely change his stance on everything he's proposed (its like a whole new person), he blatantly lied about cutting federal funding for education, he's claiming to still cover individuals with preexisting conditions (another lie), and he bragged about MA being number one in education (which had nothing to do with you - reform was already in place in 1993). PBS's Big Bird taught us to tell the truth and how to use vowels and consonants to spell L-I-A-R !!

I don't know enough about the politic actions in the US, but didn't Bush actually destroy the US economy and currency (if you want to blame one person) ?

Bain 2012! 

I’m really surprise at some of you on your post on how you feel about this subject. As a lot of you know, President Obama did lose that debate simply because Mitt lied his a ss off and as King said, "avoiding questions." Even though President Obama did try and call him out on some things and even the guy who was hosting it( I’m sorry I forgot his name but he ask Mitt twice to answer the question and all Mitt did was avoid it which pissed me off). I believe that if President Obama would just be more aggressive and stop being so nice, he can still win this easily even though a few lies from Mitt can save his tale. For the people who missed most of Mitt’s speeches but caught the debate and will vote this year, basing off how the debate is going so far, might vote for Mitt. I really do hope President Obama is ready next time because King was right, I think he was caught off guard with Mitt’s lies.

@Seph, why would you vote for Mitt? I’m not trying to come at you or anything brah, I’m just wondering.

dont be naïve they both dodged and avoided the questions, its been the MO for both leading parties for a long time. in the end, nothing actually important was discussed in this debate. neither discussed specifically how they plan to turn things around, they just tried to push why the other guys plan wont work. everything that was said is the same thing ud hear in any number of their campaign ads, except in the cases of Romney's false statements which hadnt popped up at all before.

I find it funny that this debate is getting fact checked more than anything that has happened in the past 4 years. I'm all for picking sides and defending the person I like, but honesty and this president don't exactly go hand and hand. The Obama adminstration has created a norm of misleading and dishonesty. The one things I can't stand is hypocrisy, especially when people's lives are on the line.

Obama is not the worst president pinnacle and to be honest republicans in congress seem to have a inability to see the wrong in what they do. Republicans will mess the country up and suddenly have amnesia and the republicans that vote for them suffer from the same thing. When Bush messed the country up and put us in all that debt what happened? They waited for Obama to get into office so that when the economy didn't turn completely around they would have someone to blame. Mccain didn't even want Bushes endorsement because he was so terrible. Mitt Romney doesn't have a clue on what it means to have to struggle and have nothing despite working really hard, and because of this I don't believe he can sympathize and effectively help the people that really need to be helped. This obviously showed by the taped that leaked out with him criticizing 47% of Americans stating that they don't work hard and are dependent on the government. I believe that Obama's healthcare plan will help a lot of people and it has already, and as for jobs unemployment has went down since he has been in office its under 8% now, but its just not where everyone wants it. Obama may have dodged a few question even though I haven't really notice it because from what I've seen he's laid out what his plans are and has done so numerous times unlike Romney. Oh and if you watch the news Pinnacle they even went through each thing both candidates said during the debate and a majority of what Romney has said was a lie.

sorry, i'm an immigrant. can't run for president. wait. don't we have an immigrant president at the moment?
