Obama didn't complain, the question was about assault rifle bans.

For a second I thought I was just oblivious to some genocide that occurred. | ||

The only polls that matter are the polls in the states that are close. All you need is the electoral vote and that is determined on a state by state basis. | ||

Obama talked about bans. Romney brought up Fast and Furious, and then they jumped in and said it was about bans when the girl asking the question never even mentioned the ban (in her question). | ||

China is saber rattling as a war would be the best thing for their economy and Putin has set his sights on remaking the Soviet Union. Sounds like Merkel is bringing back that good old German blitzkreig goodness and Cuba is about to march on US soil. The world is a dangerous place and we need to spend as much as the next 20 something countries combined. | ||

The harsh truth everything that Romney is saying is a)the equivalent of backseat quarterbacking and b)not that different from what Obama has already done or propose. | ||

Yeah, thinking about it, I'm not sure Romney literally calling Ahmadinejad a genocidal dictator is very good for us in the middle east and doesn't fit with his earlier plans very much. | ||

Having a political discussion, even about things people are passionate about in terms of values or local issues are usually uninformed... you think talking about complex issues on the global scales for the average american would be enlightening? | ||
