    Not according to the people who actually know him JoB… quite the opposite. I wonder.. if the Dems lose.. will they blame the storm?

    Not according to the people who actually know him JoB… quite the opposite.

    He probably hasn’t allowed anyone outside of his top 1% circle of friends and associates to get to know him.

    Other than perhaps, other Mormons, and they may just have that opinion of him, because of their commonality in faith.

    kootch..

    would you say that the people who actually know him includes those he counseled as a Mormon Bishop?

    Because it seems that they guys he counseled liked him a whole lot better than the women…

    but even they pretty much agree that he was very conscious of his position in the hierarchy.. not yours…

    and then there is the invisible line Mitt creates between himself and anyone he doesn’t consider his inner circle… and that inner circle is surprisingly small…

    this is actually the most balanced article i could find on Mitt…

    dark side and all including the story about the family dog on the roof rack which turns out to be a reflection of the single mindedness of the man…

    Seems that women who have worked for him have nothing but praise. Oh god, the war on women didn’t work, we are back to the dog on a roof. I don’t know, I would assume as a Bishop. .. if he was acting in the role of same would not be discussing his counsel …. would he? Jobs, economy. That’s the vote. In that regard, the most critical need of the country at the moment, I and the majority of voters agree, he is more competent than Hussein. The dog bty, was in a dog carrier … wanna see some pictures of dogs after a day of duck hunting? Extraordinary of all the things in that article, Seamus grabs your attention. Go ahead, give that carpet another beating… the dust is all gone.

    women who have worked for him are possibly related to the Stepford family…or good Mormon women who know they are second place to men…oops – same difference :-

    No, they are the women who, demographically are voting for him. Of course, if you are a Lt. Gov, work in finance, banking, and are republican.. you have to be a Stepford wife. That’s is precisely why Obama dropped 11 points with women. He doesn’t get it. Nothing about Ann Romney says subservient. So, we have Seamus version 6.5, and round 6 of the war on women.. trying to get past that 23 million unemployed? That 4 GDP growth of less than 2%, the drop of almost $4K per household SINCE he became prez. the soaring insurance health insurance premiums, …? Don’t forget the Tsunami and George Bush!! Time to put that in the bullpen for a warm-up.

    Kootch…I firmly believe that Obama gets it a whole lot more than RobMe. But you will argue that more, I’m sure. There now is only one poll that counts…on 11/06. Guess we’ll see, huh…

    Barry Soetero, Barry Obama, Barack Hussein Obama, Barack Obama, The Messiah, Zero, what ever name he goes by, will win if people want mediocrity and want America to fully decline. He has sold us out and is stripping away our liberty. The economy stinks. He has broken and flip flopped on many promises. You may be a liberal but he is by far the most clueless president we have had hold the office. I see the {we survived bush…} line, well I am not certain we will survive four more years of this President. Mainly because he has been a pussy about dealing with Iran and he should have launched air strikes against their nuke facilities at the most or imposed the most stringent blockade to strangle that country. We do not have Arab nation friends and the Iranian Theocracy is crazy. It is time to quit pretending. They will launch at Israel when they get a nuke. That is why Barack Obama must go.

    Rich…you rattle off his name, his middle name “Hussein”, and others. I said out loud to someone earlier this evening. …I don’t care how much “they” object to Barack Obama being president, I don’t care what excuses people use, in my heart of hearts I firmly believe the objection To Pres. Obama is his skin color, pure and simple. It’s the HUGE elephant in the room. Of course it will be denied…that doesn’t make it any less true. If he was white, this would be a whole different conversation.

    M. Romney is not qualified to be president His foreign policies are non-existent, his tax (or not tax) programs will balance nothing. He led Massachusetts to almost the bottom of the list in jobs. And it goes on and on.

    We do not need to be in another “war” with Iran…strike first , think later is stupid. Where do you come up with that crap? We don’t let any foreign country, including Israel, to dictate our foreign policies. You do everything short of going to war. And when it comes down to it, yu have no idea in the world what the president is doing with his Iran policies, his Israel polices. You THINK you do…but you don’t. None of us is privy to that info.

    As a woman, I am truly frightened as to what will happen to women’s rights if Romney gets voted in. His running mate ( the notorious liar, who is being muzzled at the moment), is no more qualified to be next in line to be president than, you, me, or Kootch. Truly frightening, in my book.

    so kootch..

    since you want to dismiss the dog on the roof…

    would you put your dog on the roof.. then hose it and the car down when the dog had been in the kennel too long and emptied it’s contents all over the top of your car without taking it out for a little exercise?

    Mitt did. Because it suited his purpose.

    As one of the American taxpayers who would get hosed down because it suited Mitt’s purpose I object..

    Even people who “like” Mitt admit his lack of flexibility and his lack of willingness to be challenged… especially by anyone he considers his inferior.

    You think that’s a good quality for our President?

    I don’t. Who knows what the world will throw at Mitt as he sits in our hot seat? If he can’t gussy it up and sell it for a profit.. he won’t know what to do with it.. and he is not likely to listen to anyone who does.

    kootch..

    “No, they are the women who, demographically are voting for him”

    do you have some insider guide to how the early voting is going because i don’t…

    but i can see why you would believe that women would come out in droves for a good strong man who knew women’s place and would be happy to put them in it…

    it fits with your attitude towards women.

    What i can’t see is why any woman with a lick of sense would vote for someone who didn’t recognize her full equal rights as a citizen..

    including being paid the same wage for the same job…

    or who didn’t trust her to make her own decisions about her body and her future.

    It is one thing to think you have won the battle fo equalrights but another to be faced with being put back into that 50’s box of limited possibilities. The Republicans couldn’t have alerted women to the fact that the ERA is not the law of the land any better if that had been their goal.

    I don’t think today’s women will stand for it.

    We will see, won’t we.

    “Barry Soetero, Barry Obama, Barack Hussein Obama, Barack Obama, The Messiah, Zero, what ever name he goes by, will win if people want mediocrity and want America to fully decline.”

    funny.. that’s exactly what i why i would surmise people would vote for Mitt.

    The policies he proposes have had decades to work and have resulted in a steep decline in lifestyle for America’s middle class … And you want more of the same?

    One definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over again and expecting different results…

    We are just now beginning to see signs of resurgence in our economy. New unemployment claims are down. Housing starts are up. All of that in spite of a do nothing congress determined to block any attempts at resuscitating this economy.

    And you want to hand the reins back to the people who were strangling us…

    because they say they might be willing to loosen their stranglehold a little and let a little of that money they are stockpiling trickle down into our society if we elect the candidate they are dumping literally millions into at the last minute to buy a win…

    Did you learn nothing from Bush’s second term.. he was re-elected because people thought he might keep some of those campaign promises he made the first time… that didn’t work out so well.

    Why settle for empty promises?

    it is going to take some hard work to put this country back onto the road to productivity… that’s people producing tangible goods… and if the people you elect don’t even acknowledge the road, how the heck do you expect them to put us on it?

    Name calling and lies might win an election Rich..

    but in the end they can’t hide the inevitable truth.

    “I am not certain we will survive four more years of this President. Mainly because he has been a pussy about dealing with Iran and he should have launched air strikes against their nuke facilities at the most or imposed the most stringent blockade to strangle that country.”

    Did the war with Iraq teach you nothing?

    How do you expect our economy to recover while we pay for yet another war to stabilize another oil market?

    even the Saudi’s have the sense to move towards 100% sustainable energy… and they intend to do so in decades.. not generations.

    Wake Up! Wake Up!

    this is your country you are selling short.

    rich: forget the war in iraq.

    didn’t this thread teach you anything?

    hey, by the way, rich, when is your kid eligible to pick up a rifle for likud? and for someone who cares about his kid’s future, you sure are reckless with the war spending.

    Hell yea JoB.. I have put hunting dogs in the back of trucks, .. a dog carrier on a roof would be AAA rated in dog world. Don’t want another war.. dump the chump and let’s get to permitting and drilling! While we may convert to alternate energy, there is nothing on the horizon that is as calorie dense.

    No JoB.. those are tough women, who don’t need a government as surrogate protector. They are harvesting the bumper crop of opportunity. Old women and young unmarried women are the core of Obama support. Those in the economic mainstream are voting republican. Nothing makes a conservative faster than a liberal who has been mugged… nothing makes a republican faster than a woman who makes a fistful of money…. and that would be a lot of them. Might be a message there. JaN you keep insisting that is so… let’s reverse the tables… if roughly 50 per cent of the population is democrat and republican… the most racially motivated voters are black voters who defy logic and vote for a party that has done nothing for them.. and this president who has done less than most. But still, they vote strictly along racial lines.. why is that? There is your elephant in the room. I say this congres should be applauded.. thanked… for putting a bit in the mouth of Barry da Bling and his spending spree. Tell Harry to get his head out of his ass and put a budget on the floor and let’s have a debate on the merits of his plan vs the House republican plan. Can’t debate with oneempty chair can ya?
