He likely speaks to God in the heavens. First name basis, I’m sure.I’m watching some of the debate coverage. If Gore thinks that Denver is too high a place for Obama to think, what happens when Obama gets into an airplane?Does Al Gore know something we should know?
Not to mention that Denver was just as high for Romney.I’m watching some of the debate coverage. If Gore thinks that Denver is too high a place for Obama to think, what happens when Obama gets into an airplane?
But the funniest thing I’ve seen, and I don’t usually like Colbert, is this: realclearpolitics.com/video/2012/10/05/colbert_inhales_chris_matthews_impotent_rage.html

Yeah, nobody else has pointed that out yet.
We also know that of all the countries in our league, that the US fails in nearly every measure of social success which is commonly measured, thing like: child welfare measure by several standards, longevity, infant mortality, educational achievement, social mobility… It turns out that even the rich in the US are not as well of as the rich in other countries, where there is a more even income distribution. There is tremendous social good achieved by distributing wealth through taxation, or by limiting income for the top earner. Everyone wins, even the top earners, because it turns out that when all of society benefits, then everyone does indeed benefit. The two top countries are Sweden and Japan, who just happen to have the narrowest gap between rich and poor. Sweden does it with high tax rates. Japan does it by limiting top pay for executones.
NO. And there is plenty of evidence to show it. When there is no incentive to work, people don’t. Production falls, there is not enough to eat, so people drink to stave off despair and hunger. Kids get abandoned, food rots in the field. The black market takes over at that point, and becomes the “new competition without rules or scruples.” That’s where this goes. Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union went down this path and (name removed by moderator)overished their populations over schemes like this. They are still digging themselves out and will be for years.
Liberals have been sleeping through alarm clocks such as yours for four years now. If Bush had Obama’s record, he’d be down by 30 points now. Failure after failure after failure. Rigged jobs and inflation reports would never have been accepted under Bush. The reason that Romney trounced Obama for 90 minutes is b/c Mitt cut through the rotten lies from the teleprompter that BHO’s clueless supporters applaud, even now. Left unfiltered, Obama appeared as he is: a small and vacuous man.
RobYes, but Romney gave himself time to adjust by landing in Denver sooner! A dirty trick, I say!!!

Look many of the “statistics” you cite are questionable as the gathering of those numbers differ from country to country. For example if you take homicides and auto accidents out of US lifespans, the numbers change dramatically. This is not to say how wonderful it is that if we don’t kill each other or wreck our cars we live forever but to say that you cannot compare apples and oranges and pretend they are equivalent. The infant mortality is also a canard as the way “infant” death is determined differs from country to country. We would include a stillborn child as an infant death, other countries do not.
Definitely, not to mention the language barrier…we have quite a lot from the east, most can speak english, some good, some bad, and to be understood sometimes, I end up talking like a robot ! not to mention the telephone conversations, they’re something else :banghead:
So it’s now Obama and his own campaign manager fighting over whether Romney has a $5 TR tax cut.
WOW!! I haven’t bought The New Yorker in ages (used to have a subscription!) but if this is on the newsstand I’m pungling up the six bucks or whatever just to have this cover. Love the use of Eastwood’s empty chair to portray the empty suit and empty rhetoric. It was all smoke and mirrors folks.
Yup. They supported him completely until the debate. Now they will begin to support themselves by trying to appear fair and balanced.
