the democrats and the electorate
rejected experience for youth and promise
and
you can see what we got
now
the republicans may choose youth and promise
when
what we really need is experience
we always need experience
can't see that when you are angry

all the democrats have now
is
experience promising the youth free stuff

We don't want term limits if we can get people in there who will do a good job. We want proper representation: of the people, and chosen by the people. And I don't care about the budget. The budget is not a significant issue. It's a deliberate distraction being used to turn everyone against everyone else, based on our innate personal greed.

Each to his own I guess but, I could not disagree with you more though. Term limits disallow the very thing you asserted concerning incumbents & corruption...they go hand in hand. New blood means new ideas and less chance for corruption to take strong roots as we see today. How you can say the lack of a budget and out of control borrowing/spending is not a major issue is just absurd and personal wealth is a separate issue altogether and goes to the heart of the constitution which is liberty, the freedom to achieve....achievement is not greed, there are to many stories of personal achievement in spite of social station in this country that prove that out. Your complaint is just sour grapes because everyone doesn't experience the same level of success but, not everyone puts in the same amount of time and effort either, you get what you put in.

But not by directly addressing the corruption. And because it does not address the corruption directly, it ends up forcing the removal of a good representative if we ever manage to get one in office. Why do that when we don't have to, if we address the corruption, directly?
They go hand in hand. New blood means new ideas and less chance for corruption to take strong roots as we see today.
There is no reason to automatically assume the newly elected politician is any less susceptible to the same bribery and corruption that the old one was susceptible to. The problem is the bribery and corruption, not the longevity of the politician.
How you can say the lack of a budget and out of control borrowing/spending is not a major issue is just absurd
No it's not. Obama has cut our national debt nearly in half in the last 7 years. So what? Nothing's changed. Our economy is still barely limping along, and what growth it does manage to achieve goes directly to the wealthiest .01% of the population, where it has no effect on the rest of us, at all. I think your ears are just ringing from the constant republican mantra about over-spending, which is truly hypocritical since it's always the "fiscally conservative" republicans that keep spending us into such enormous debt. While it's the democrats that they are forever blaming it on that keep having to cut back to bring it into check.

Are you kidding? :rotfl: Obama has out spent the best of them and has nearly doubled the debt, I am not even going to do your footwork, you are one google search from shattering that fantasy. Quit worrying about how others fare in this crappy economy Obama has allowed to continue, and start figuring out how you can achieve, there will always be rich & poor in every society the key is figuring how to overcome to your own success...it isn't a gimme, nothing is free.

You are living in the alternative reality of the right-wingnut media. Which explains why you can't understand the problem, or the possible solutions. Too bad. It's people like you that will make sure there will be no solution.

Yep, it's "every man for himself" in the land of greed! Jesus said so! (according to the alternative reality of right-wingnut media)

So, some of us must work diligently to support ourselves and also those who refuse to work diligently? You think Jesus approves of the sluggard, the sloth, those who demand a portion of the labor of others yet give nothing back?

Right, because everyone who's poor is just a lazy sluggard. And Jesus loves guns, greed, and the confederacy. Rush Limbaugh told us so!

And you are a left wing nut job, who's perception of the problem is skewed by a flawed worldview that you are entitled to fruit of another's labor, which you believe is a solution...theft of others possessions to give to another is not a solution at all, what you want is tyranny not liberty.

Now you are just ranting...:plain:

one of the more interesting questions
in last nights debate
was
does obama know what he is doing?
rubio says yes
trump says no
on this point
rubio must be right
but
the real question
is
do we know what obama is doing?

the worst part of the debate
for rubio
was
being placed between jeb and trump

he looked so small

heels might help
 

annabenedetti

like marbles on glass
This is why Rubio won't make it:

"I'm going to say it again," he told the audience of more than 800 gathered in a school cafeteria. "The reason why these things are troubling is because Barack Obama is the first president, at least in my lifetime, that wants to change the country. Change the country, not fix it."


Also.. are there things in this country that need changing? I think there are. To fix some things, change is necessary.

You know Jeb is desperate when he has a RINO loser like Lyndsey Graham stumping for him...pathetic.

there are way too many idiots in new hampshire

230,000

too much heroin?
not enough religion?

maybe

just too much obama

they need someone to take care of them
they can't take care of themselves
but
all they really need is a job
and
someone who knows how to create them
