Education and Social Security
Neese, Terry, THE JOURNAL RECORD
Social Security and reforming Social Security has become a hot issue topic on Capitol Hill and in virtually every coffee shop across the country.
Since its inception, Social Security has been a popular program because most retirees have received reasonable rates of return on the payroll taxes they have paid. However, as the program matures and as future workers face the daunting task of paying for the retirement of the baby boom generation, taxes will rise and the investment value of Social Security will decline.
A recent white paper by Liqun Liu and Andrew J. Rettenmaier considers Social Security as an investment for different classes of workers based on their level of education. Why education, rather than income? Everyone's income will vary a lot over the course of a 40- to 45-year work life. As a result, level of education is a better predictor of expected Social Security taxes and benefits than current wages according to Liu and Rettenmaier.
Education affects a person's investment in Social Security in other ways. Someone who drops out of high school will pay payroll taxes for more years than someone who remains in school. Yet because of Social Security's peculiar rules, these extra years of payments do not add anything to retirement benefits. In this sense, Social Security penalizes those with less education. On the other hand, more education tends to produce higher income over an entire work life and higher-income workers are treated less generously under Social Security's benefit formula.
How any particular individual is affected also depends on such factors as life expectancy, marital status, number of children and the life expectancy of a spouse.
Now before you start crossing your eyes on this issue because it bores you and you are just not interested in the issue, Liu and Rettenmaier have made calculations for individuals born in different years with different levels of educational achievement. In each case, they have calculated the internal rate of return on payroll taxes paid and the net present value of Social Security: the value today of expected future benefits minus expected costs.
Among workers born in the same year, they found that in most cases those with less education receive a higher rate of return than those with more education. Using a conservative, inflation-adjusted discount rate of 4 percent, they found that the present values are negative in most cases regardless of age or education; but workers with less education have lower lifetime losses than those with more education.
Present values
for single men
For singles, their calculation assumes the worker's tax payments produce his own retirement benefits exclusively -- with no spousal benefits, no surviving spouse benefits and no benefits to surviving children. They find that:
* Regardless of the level of education and year of birth, single men would have done better if they could have invested their payroll tax dollars in the private capital market. However, those with more education do worse than those with less.
* For example, a 20-year-old high school graduate can expect to pay $32,667 more in taxes than he receives in benefits.
* A 20-year-old college graduate can expect a lifetime loss of $63,363.
* A 20-year-old who stays in school and earns a graduate degree can expect a net loss of $93,170.
* Social Security imposes not only a lifetime tax on workers, but also a loss that, while small or nonexistent during the program's early years, has grown through time. …

Obviously if you're here, you care about the quality of audio and music you are listening to - therefore you have a passion for it.
I was just interested in finding out who here actually writes or performs their own music? It'd be interesting to find out if we have any musicians or vocalists among us.

I've been playing guitar since I was 10. I'm 20 now. I can play a few chords and scales on the piano. I usually write chord progressions, record them in Cubase LE, and then record a solo as a second audio track. I use a lexicon omega as my interface, which is way more inputs than I need, but oh well. May come in handy one day.

With its introduction of the Escape, Ford was once again able to develop an SUV that appealed to a wide selection of car buyers. The Ford Escape combines the styling and 4-wheel drive ability of a traditional SUV along with the driving characteristics of a midsize car. This range of practicality and appeal make it a great choice for consumers looking for a comfortable fun-to-drive ride capable of doing some heavy-duty work.
If you are in the market for an affordably priced, yet quality built SUV, place the Ford Escape near the top of your search list. Contrary to it's counterpart the 2008 Ford Focus the 2008 Ford Escape, with attention focused on creating a more aerodynamic exterior and attractive interior controls, was redesigned to allow the Escape a more contemporary look. The second generation model was initially offered with either a 153-horesepower four-cylinder engine or a 200-horesepower V6 engine. The first generation Ford Escape came standard with only a 2.0 Liter 130-horesepower engine. This lack of power, however, did not hold back early sales. Instead, car buyers were impressed by its drivability and compact size.

Florida State University students vote in the universitys Student Government elections via an online voting system. / Robert Gill/FSView
Elections have always held a particular interest for me, and there are two I am especially interested in at the moment. The two are very different, but the key similarity they share is that each shows how important it is to vote.
The first of the two is the ghost of elections past, as Ill call it. It was an election that took place in Azerbaijan this past week, and it featured some of the most blatant vote-rigging Ive ever heard of. Before polls had even opened to voters, the results were out, and the sitting president had apparently won re-election in a landslide.
If that example of election fraud seems to contradict my claim that every vote in every election is important, thats because of the way I am looking at it. While its a fact that Azerbaijan witnessed rigged elections, the removal of a staple of the democratic process should put said staple, voting, in the limelight.
The lesson of how important voting is can be debated rationally, in a sense. In this case, the focus wouldnt be on whether or not elections are rigged, but on the likelihood that any one persons vote will actually make a difference. Because the odds are small that a single vote makes the difference, it is irrational to vote, especially when adding in the costs of voting, such as time that could be spent procrastinating very important things. So, since voting is irrational, there should be zero votes cast in elections, right?
Having taken a class on voting, campaigns and elections that was masterfully taught by Robert Jackson here at FSU, I know the answer to that question is a strong no. For one thing, voting has intangible benefits not often thought of. It is, after all, one of the easiest ways to show involvement in your community and political system. On top of that, the costs of voting are relatively easy to mitigate.
Florida State seems to have hit the nail on the head when it comes to lowering those costs. The solution is a high tech yet simple one: online voting. By letting students vote on a secure server accessible from any computer, FSU has sharply reduced the costs of voting.
What that means is that its time for one of my favorite game: Pros and Cons: The Voting Edition. FSU goes a long way to solving both problems by decreasing the costs, facilitating voting and decreasing the size of the population eligible to vote for individual Senators. By having Senators run for chairs in departments, the voting pool is cut, increasing the odds of one vote making a difference and making it less irrational to vote.
As far as Pros are concerned, that list is longer than I have time to say. The main Pro is that voting is a form of expression. When youre not a multi-billionaire with Super PACs to do your expressing for you, an individual vote can be a pretty big statement.

P.Z. Myers Crashes "Expelled" Again?
Posted on Mar 28, 2008 by Tom Gilson
Update 8:45 pm: regarding accusations from Panda's Thumb that this is a lie, please see here.
At this moment there is a telephone conference call underway with Ben Stein and the producers of Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed. It is an invitation-only conference. The call was interrupted by someone representing himself as P.Z. Myers, a Minnesota scientist and strident opponent of religion and of Intelligent Design. This person broke in and interrupted the call and accused the movie-makers of lying. This was about 40 minutes into a 60 minute conference. Others on the call included producers Mark Mathis, Logan Craft, and Walt Ruloff.
Just last week Myers also tried to crash an invitation-only screening of the film in Minneapolis. He claims he went to an open RSVP website to get himself signed up to come. That claim is undermined in that the screening was quite clearly by invitation, "RSVP" means "please respond to this invitation," and he knew he was not invited.
He has apparently just now done it again.
But clearly the ruckus he and others have raised is far off the real point, which is the content of the film.
Expelled producer Mark Mathis said near the end:
"If this debate were really just about scientific ideas–when was the last time you heard about people getting together to have a passionate exchange about gravity or entropy? But you do get it with this one. The biggest part of this argument is about a worldview. If you acknowledge that design can be discovered scientifically, then the whole worldview of atheism crashes down around you. So they defend evolution with incredible vigor. And on the flip side, people ask, "Why is this being suppressed? Why do they have such a stranglehold on the science departments?"
"Even just now on the phone P.Z. went to the Holocaust footage and misrepresented what has been said about it–which we just explained again a few moments before on this phone call….
"But the core content of the film is that there are scientists being persecuted, and it needs to stop."
I have not seen the film, but I have noticed, as the producers and Ben Stein noted, that all the controversy in the blogosphere has been over peripheral issues: who got invited into a showing, for example. The complaints haven't been about the substance. It's not that ID antagonists have not had opportunity to see it. Richard Dawkins was admitted to the same showing that P.Z. Myers was excluded from. (The producers maintain that they knew he was entering, by the way.) Last week in Nashville, they say, they took initiative to call ID antagonist Michael Shermer and ask him to attend a screening.
This, by the way, demonstrates it wasn't some kind of paranoia that led them to exclude P.Z. Myers. Frankly, in view of the way Myers speaks about his opponents on his blog, I would be inclined not to invite him in to a private discussion too. That same angry tone was evident in the person on the phone just now. It makes perfectly good sense that they would have admitted Dawkins and not Myers–for Dawkins, for all his anti-religious rhetoric, at least maintains a much more courteous tone.
Paul Lauer, the moderator, handled it graciously in my opinion, given that the call had been crashed. I wonder how the caller got on the conference with voice capabilities–everyone else on the call except the moderator and interviewees was muted (press questions were taken by email).
I'm more interested now than ever to see the film.
Note on comments, added at 6:05 pm. I've already deleted one obscenity posted here. This is not Pharyngula, and this blog has discussion standards. This is the weekend, and I do not intend to babysit commenters. I'm going to close comments intermittently as needed when I'm not available to keep an eye on it. I'll close them completely if needed.

I just commented on PZ\'s blog asking if he did that.
By the way, here\'s some stuff on Ben Stein:
There have been many substantive criticisms of the movie. There has been criticism of its specious argument that evolutionary theory was a precondition to the Holocaust (despite genocidal impulses clearly predating Darwin, which should have made that bit of stupid a non-starter without even having to study evolution), its failing to explain the scientific method or detail the scientific merits of neo-Creationism (I mean why would that be important in determining why neo-Creationism doesn\'t have a seat at the table?), its erroneous portrayal of persecution by interviewees, and its nebulous invocation of \"free speech.\" You just aren\'t looking. The matter of them excluding PZ Myers was simply comedic hypocrisy.
Further if you really think that Dawkins is gentler to religion than PZ Myers, then I suggest it\'s because you haven\'t listened to him speak or read his latest book.
How does one break in on a conference call? Did you participate in the conference call? Was the phone call taped? Do you have a transcript? Is there any actual evidence that Myers interrupted Stein\'s conversation? Or do we have to accept it as a matter of faith?
I appreciate a good controversy, but is there any thing convincing out there to link the real PZ with the person breaking in on the call? If there isn\'t then I side with the skeptics even though I personally have a low opinion of PZ\'s character.
Will: Myers describes exactly what he did in his own blog post on the incident (already linked to above, but here it is again for good measure. He also refutes there the claim made in this post that the attacks on Expelled haven\'t addressed the substance of the movie.
Ian, you\'re being too kind in talking about \"the claim made in this post…\" This post in fact simply repeats one of many lies made by the producers of the film. Among Mark Mathis, Ben Stein, and the other individuals promoting the idea that Darwinism was responsible for the Holocaust, there really is no intelligence allowed.
PZ Myers did, in fact, join the Expelled conference call. And, apparently, he did accuse Stein, et al., of lying. Being a scientist, it sounds like he even provided evidence to back up the assertion. Perhaps the makers of Expelled will release a transcript of the call. I\'d rather not simply take someone\'s word for what was said…
This post makes the claim that PZ Myers wasn\'t invited to the MI screening of Expelled. I went to the Expelled website, and it is an open invitation just as PZ claims. Perhaps Mr. Gilson should look at the their website before parroting that particular line. In what way is an open invitation NOT an invitation? That\'s simply a bizarre claim.
Secondly, there have been several substantive articles and blog posts by both PZ Myers, Richard Dawkins, and other about the actual content of the movie. I would refer Mr. Gilson ExpelledExposed.com for a list of some of these articles and blog posts. Keep checking back! they\'ll be adding more.
If you want to know how PZ got voice capabilities, read his blog post on the incident. It\'s hilarious.
We will be adding some to the discussion as well. We sat in on the same phone call.
Tom Gilson wrote:
The connection between Darwinism and the Holocaust is not a lie when it is understood the way thoughtful people have presented it.
Feel free to present that \"thoughtful way\" here:
Tom: do you also maintain that Darwinism was a necessary condition for the Pogrom of 1096, the massacres of Jews in London and York in 1189-1190, the massacres in 1348, the massacres of Jews and Roman Catholics by the Cossacks in 1648–1654, and the anti-Jewish riots in Odessa in 1821? If not, then what made the Holocaust different?
Oh, for gosh sakes…\"Darwinism\" a necessary condition to the holocaust…do you know how asinine that sounds? Do you listen to yourself? Do you have any idea at all what you are saying?
So, genocide and anti-semitism–two things which have existed for thousands of years–these two things could not have come together were it not for a British naturalist arriving at the view that speciation is caused by the natural selection of adaptive variations. Suuuuuure. That makes sense. How could anyone have been so blind as not to see that before? Until Darwin, anti-semites could NEVER have put two and two together and figured out, \"hey, we could use GENOCIDE to get rid of the Jews! Thanks, Mr. Darwin! If I didn\'t know all this stuff about pigeon breeding from reading The Origin of Species, I would never have thought of that!\"
Cripes. Study history, biology, and above all, LOGIC before you say something that silly.
Tom, the \"necessary condition(s)\" for the Holocaust were a long history of antisemitism, an atmosphere of nationalistic fear, and a psychotic ruler willing to misuse ANY idea to fit his insane program.
If you look at the modern genocides in parts of Africa or if you read the Old Testament descriptions of genocides (Numbers 31 comes to mind), you\'ll see that evolution is in no way a necessary condition for us to be really nasty to each other.
Tom, Myers has addressed the false claim that this was an \"invitation only\" screening and that he was not invited. He registered and received a confirmation to attend beforehand. It\'s the film\'s producers who have a problem with the facts.
As for oversimplifying the argument, I think the poster of Ben Stein spray-painting \"Darwin\" on a Nazi belt-buckle speaks for itself.
…and, of course, because if you\'re going to take a position that flies in the face of reason, you need to think about how to frame that position before you dive in. You really ought to save yourself the trouble and just admit that you said a dumb, dumb thing.
And, Tom: have you even read The Origin of Species? I\'ll bet you have not.
Give me a break. Myers did not \"crash\" the screening of Expelled, and it was NOT invitation only. Just writing that on your blog does not make it true. Your arguments must have a basis in reality, they must have supporting evidence.
How about deleting your ridiculous insult to Darwin? That would be a good ad hominem to start with…
Tom: It\'s too bad you deleted Norman Doering\'s link to his blog post. It\'s actually a quite interesting post about how the Nazis actually banned writings promoting Darwinism, and how it was creationist Edward Blyth\'s ideas that led to eugenics. Norman also points out multiple passages from Hitler\'s _Mein Kampf_ which look more like something written by a creationist than an evolutionist.
How did Myers get his invitation? An email correspondent reveals:
This comment was recently posted on Pharyngula by Kristine, who I believe is PZ\'s grad student (but I could be wrong about that…)

Does anyone have any idea where to get documentation on the properties that can be set? Like Conversion Patterns? Or the DTD for the XML properties? Also, where does log4j want the configuration file to live? All the docs seem to be on the Java code and not the configuration files. I haven't used this version of log4j. The docs seem less complete.

My horse Ace and I were in a show last weekend and he did soooo great! The first class, an English walk trot, he did decent in, but we ended up getting first place because we were the only hunt-seaters in there with 6 other gaited horses and the judge said I was the best representation of my discipline. Then we were in best adult rider walk trot and we placed 2nd out of 5 riders. Lastly we were in hunter pleasure walk trot canter and we placed 2nd out of 6 riders. And you have to understand that up until this point my horse has never once had a good cantering experience at a show; he usually picks up the wrong lead or barges into it or something. But NONE of that happened this time! He was a perfect angel and just did sooo good! I was so proud of him! And the girl that beat us, both times in the last two classes, was really good and won every class she was in, so it wasn't bad getting second. We beat some horses and riders that I've seen at other shows that we have never beaten and that I never thought we would beat. Sorry for my rant, just had to share :)
We got three big ribbons and a horse head trophy.

Navigating the NHS
This article is from the WebMD News Archive
Opt-out system for organ donation outlined in Wales
8th November 2011 - With Wales set to become the first country in the UK to adopt a system of 'presumed consent' for organ and tissue donation, read our FAQs about what the changes would mean.
What is an 'opt-out' organ donor scheme?
At the moment people have to choose to join the NHS organ donor register if they want to donate their organs or tissues after they die. This means they have to 'opt-in'.
Under the proposals outlined in Wales, unless a person makes an objection, their organs and tissues will be available for donation in the event of their death.
This form of organ donation is known as 'presumed consent' or 'a soft opt-out'. In the "soft opt-out system, the views of relatives may be taken into account. In a "hard opt-out" system, such as in Austria, the views of close relatives are not considered.
Why is it being proposed?
Supporters believe it will help solve a shortage of donors. This shortfall contributes to one person a week in Wales dying while waiting for a suitable donor.
Only one in three people in Wales have joined the organ donor register, while around 300 people in Wales are currently waiting for an organ transplant.
The Welsh health minister Lesley Griffiths said in a statement: "The shortage of organs and tissues continues to cause unnecessary deaths and suffering, both to patients waiting for a transplant and their relatives."
Will everyone be a potential donor unless they object?
No. You will have to be 18 or over, and to have lived in Wales for a certain period of time, to be included. The amount of time has yet to be decided.
A person would also have to die in Wales to be considered as part of the scheme.
Individuals would also have to demonstrate that they had the mental capacity to understand the choice.
I don't want to be a donor. What will I have to do?
If you are 18 or over you would have to opt out of the scheme. A decision on how the wishes of individuals will be recorded is still a matter of debate. A number of different solutions have been put forward. These are:
- A register of people who have not objected, and a register of persons who have objected
- A register only of those who have not objected
- A register of individuals who have objected
- No register, but a record of objection given to and held by a person's GP
If the system becomes law, Welsh people will be given a period of time to decide whether they want to opt out.
What happens if a relative dies and I object to their organs being used?
Relatives will be involved in the decision making, but they are unlikely to be able to overturn the deceased individual's wishes unless they can demonstrate that it would "add to their distress and bereavement".
Those who have drafted the proposals believe that this sort of conflict is less likely to happen because people who have opted to stay on the register are more likely to have discussed their wishes with loved ones.

Buckwheat Family
( Originally Published 1922 )
Common Persicaria, Pink Knotweed, or Jointweed;
Polygonum pennsylvanicum
Flowers—Very small, pink, collected in terminal, dense, narrow obtuse spikes, 1 to 2 in. long. Calyx pink or greenish, 5-parted, like petals; no corolla; stamens 8 or less; style 2-parted. Stem: 1 to 3 ft. high, simple or branched; often partly red, the joints swollen and sheathed; the branches above, and peduncles glandular. Leaves: Oblong, lance-shaped, entire edged, 2 to 11 in. long, with stout midrib, sharply tapering at tip, rounded into short petioles below.
Preferred Habitat—Waste places, roadsides, moist soil. Flowering Season—July—October.
Distribution—Nova Scotia to the Gulf of Mexico; west-ward to Texas and Minnesota.
Everywhere we meet this commonest of plants or some of its similar kin, the erect pink spikes brightening road-sides, rubbish heaps, fields, and waste places, from mid-summer to frost. The little flowers, which open with-out method anywhere on the spike they choose, attract many insects, the smaller bees (Andrena) conspicuous among the host. As the spreading divisions of the perianth make nectar-stealing all too easy for ants and other crawlers that would not come in contact with anthers and stigma where they enter a flower near its base, most buckwheat plants whose blossoms secrete sweets protect themselves from theft by coating the upper stems with glandular hairs that effectually discourage the pilferers. Shortly after fertilization, the little rounded, flat-sided fruit begins to form inside the persistent pink calyx. At any- time the spike-like racemes contain more bright pink buds and shining seeds than flowers. Familiarity alone breeds contempt for this plant, that certainly possesses much beauty. The troublesome and wide-ranging weed called lady's thumb is a near relative.

Mario Barth
Mario Barth grew up in Austria, immigrating to the states in 1995 to set up his tattoo shop in New Jersey. "I started tattooing a long time ago. It chose me to do it," he says. "There was no scene at the time, it was all very underground. I had no financial interest in it, but then I realized I could make money out of it."It took a while for Barth to develop his large customer base, of which he guesses 20 percent are celebrities. "I got good exposure in the '90s from traveling. I did a few celebrity clients, and it was a slow build up from word of mouth. It just grew with one customer at a time." Now, Barth has a two year waiting list, and it takes almost as long to see one of the 28 tattoo artists who work under him in any of his five Starlight Tattoo shops. Besides his impressive client list, including celebrities such as Lenny Kravitz and Pamela Anderson, Barth developed the only form of sterile tattoo pigment with 54 colors. He also plans to attend Las Vegas' Magic trade showthis coming spring to show his new line of menswear that he describes as "Versace meets street-wear." He says, "I know a lot of white-collar people with tattoos, so I wanted to create a clothing line for them. I'm working on a classic suit with a colorful lining that can go from a meeting to a club."
As far as Barth's own tattoos go, he's been accepted by Horitoshi I to receive a traditional Japanese back piece. It's nearly impossible for a Westerner to get one of these traditional tattoos, and it took Horitoshi I five years to decide to tattoo Barth. "I have no idea why he chose me, but I'm happy enough that he did. At that time, you don't ask questions anymore." When asked if he's as selective with his own clients, Barth maintains that he'll take anyone willing to wait. "If someone waits a year and a half, that person knows they need that piece. It's going to be on their body, so it's not up to me to say no to them. The only time I turn people away is when they're unsure what they want."Despite his success, Barth isn't an elitist about his work. "If you decide that you need a strawberry on your body for the rest of your days, it's important to you, and it's my job to put it there. I have no personal attachment to the tattoo. I just make sure my customers leave happy." He does have his specialties, however. His favorites are large-scale back pieces, and he also loves to do bright color, fantasy, and portraits. "When you do a large-scale body suit and see the person's whole appearance changed, it's always rewarding and fulfilling. It's the most impressive thing you can do," he says.

While we might all tire from telemarketers calling at dinner time to ask for dollars or our opinion, most of us welcome a call from a friend, family or colleague asking our opinion. I don't reach out as often as I'd like but when I do I am struck by how easy and valuable it is. Getting a variety of perspectives before making a decision typically ensures a more holistic view of the options available. These decisions could be large financial ones like buying a house or establishing a will or it could be as simple as where to stay on vacation.
I see positives on both sides of "give me your opinion". First when you ask someone for their opinion, you tell them you respect them and value their perspective. Think of a time when someone called you out of the blue and asked for your advice- didn't you feel honored? Second, when you get different perspectives, you are more apt to have recognized a variety of options rather than jumping to a quick conclusion. I also find myself energized by those I connect with and that flows into my entire day not just impacting the topic at hand.
Do you have friends or colleagues that you reach out to on a regular basis? Have you offered any sage advice to others this week?

Dr. Gorbis' interview on Body Dysmorphic Disorder available to watch at psychotherapy.net!
Dr. Gorbis talks about Body Dysmorphic order, its successful treatment methods, and resources for therapists. Go there now.
Jeffrey Schwartz, M.D. , Associate Research Professor of Psychiatry at UCLA School of Medicine, is a seminal thinker and researcher in the field of self-directed neuroplasticity. He is the author of almost 100 scientific publications in the fields of neuroscience and psychiatry, and of two popular books, "Brain Lock: Free Yourself From Obseessive-Compulsive Behavior" (1996) and "A Return to Innocence: Philosophical Guidance in an Age of Cynicism" (1998). His major research interest over the past two decades has been brain imaging/functional neuroanatomy and cognitive-behavioral therapy, with a focus on the pathological mechanisms and psychological treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).
Dr. Schwartz received an honors degree in philosophy from the University of Rochester, and in the 1970s began to immerse himself in Buddhist philosophy--in particular, the philosophy of mindfulness, or conscious awareness. This is the idea that the mind is an active participant in the world, and that when the actions of the mind have an effect on the workings of the brain. It became his goal to find a scientific underpinning for the belief that mindfulness affects how the brain works. In the 1990s, at UCLA, he made his key discovery: that a four-step cognitive behavioral therapy he pioneered is capable to changing the activity in a specific brain circuit of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder, as shown on PET scans. After publishing his findings in scientific journals in the mid-1990s, Dr. Schwartz used his discovery--which is becoming a widely utilized treatment for OCD and has been corroborated by other research teams--as the basis for his best-selling book "Brain Lock," which leads readers thorough the four-step cognitive-behavioral therapy that he devised to treat OCD.
Dr. Schwartz's breakthrough in OCD provided the hard evidence that the mind can control the brain's chemistry, and that it can do so through the classic Buddhist idea of mindfulness. Dr. Schwartz's has lectured widely in the U.S., Europe and Asia to both professional and lay audiences. His most recent academic writing has been in the field of philosophy of mind, specifically on the role of volition in human neurobiology

Politics Counts
Foreign Policy
"foreign policy – a relative area of strength for the president."
Foreign policy a relative area of strength for the president????? Jeesh I would hate to see the world if it were a weakness of his. "Global Warming" would be a cool down for the World, because the entire globe would be on fire...... half of it is now thanks to the "relative strength" of Obama's foreign policy.
Obama's greatest strength has been the creation of the most divisive among Americans via his class warfare rhetoric. In that area he has certainly excelled beyond our wildest expectations.
I'd appreciate it if Mr. Romney's foreign policy positions consisted of more than latching on to the soundclip-du-jour. As he says, these are people's lives. Let's have an informed debate.
And when will see some of Mr Obama's details? On anything?
Or maybe they're in that budget that got zero votes.
LIVE THE HUNGER GAMES! Vote Obama!
Is this the same Mr Romney who was criticizing the Egyptian embassy staff at the same time they were under fire ?
I'm sure the graves of the ambassador and other americans are just bumps in the ground to BO.
The "redistribution" attack lasted a day. The "can't change Washington" attack lasted about half a day.
I give the "bumps in the road" attack roughly eight hours of shelf life before it, too, collapses under the weight of it's own dishonesty.
using our tax dollars, the ride will get much bumpier.
...but can't wait to record "The View" with the girls?
His pandering to a certain group of people, his voters, through that show, shows just how much he is actually interested in DOING his job, vs just getting re-elected.
Blowing off meetings with world leaders, while findign plenty of time to chat with Letterman, Whoopie and Babs WaWa.
So typical....when he should have been seeing to the economy, he was on the golf course.
Obama indeed created more divisiveness in this country, the color of his skin, that is. You Republicans just can't stand the thought of a Black president.
Dog bites Man
Politicians campaign
Bill Clinton was the first black president.
"Using this incident to launch political attacks should be beneath someone seeking to be our nation's Commander-in-Chief.' " So, what Romney said is beneath someone seeking to be President, but accusing someone of killing an employee is not? Hmmmm....
So Mitt Romney will start declaring war on Egypt, Palestininas, Pakistanis, Assad, Iraq, Iran and several other Muslim nations for not following American otders? Or he will make a great change in the middle east, Arab and Islamic nation foreign policy of America following the honest diplomacy, just and fair dealings, human rights, freedom and democracy for all and end of occupation and apartheid from the any and evry corner of the world? Or he will follow the gun-boat diplomacy of his great mentors; Bush-Cheney, who had declared unwanted and illegal wars bankrupting our treasury, reputation and image around the globe? Mitt; better be specific on your thoughts and policies and plans; only 40 days are left for you to show your real heart or you will be lost forever in the history.
It is liberals that can't stop thinking about the color of Obama's skin. Conservatives are intellectually honest enough to look past that and at his record. Solyndra vs. Staples.
maybe if you read the U.S. Constitution you would know that CONGRESS declares wars...not the president
How interesting that as an Obama supporter you would bring up bankruptcy of the treasury, with three consecutive years of record deficits and over the last six years (under a Democratically controlled Congress) we started to see the deficits sky-rocket.
And, if it means that other countries and people would be too afraid to attack us, I think that's the point. Obama has spent his presidency apologizing for the US, bowing to every ruler/dictator, and showing the entire world that he is unwilling to take firm action if we are acted against.
Here's a some insight. Mitt's tell us how out of touch he is.
QUESTION: Does the government have a responsibility to provide health care to the 50 million Americans who don't have it today?
ROMNEY: Well, we do provide care for people who don't have insurance, people — we — if someone has a heart attack, they don't sit in their apartment and die. We pick them up in an ambulance, and take them to the hospital, and give them care. And different states have different ways of providing for that care.
No problem for mitt's to ge health care. He probably has his private jet fly in his private physician. In the end, there's probably a tax dodge that gets We The People to pay for it!
Mitt just explained how the current system deals with it and for those with enough intelligence to see, that he believes it is an issue for the states which has been his stance on the subject for a long time.
Nov 6th - Wiberal Season
Obama continues to be on TV in Pakistan with Hillary Clinton apologizing for a movie that no one there has seen (and only a dozen people here). THAT is reckless. He is calling their attention to the movie, and he knows, having been educated in a Muslim school in Indonesia, that they MUST take offense to anything that ridicules the Prophet. So my conclusion is that President Obama is hoping for problems in that part of the world that he can then make speeches about to show how he is such a foreign policy genius. To call him clueless would be a disservice; he knows EXACTLY what he is doing, and is doing it for political points to the detriment of the safety of the US..
obummer the usurper, saying "bump in the road" sounds a bit like saying the Grand Canyon is just a chuck hole.
Go Mitt! Obama needs to be exposed as the weak president he is. The going to Vegas hours after learning of the ambassadors death tells it all......sad.
Romney failed to mention the bumps in Obama's head and those of underlings in the State Dept
It is sad that the majority of you that support Obama do so with closed eyes as well as closed minds. And who cares if he is black? Just you.
No wonder Americans do not believe what the press is "pushing" when all you hear is how President Obama is and has been doing so great on the economy and foreign affairs.
Even the WSJ needs to shape up and start reporting correctly on Obama and Mitt Romney!
"...... foreign policy – a relative area of strength for the president." An "area of strength" for Obama? Really? I guess that is why we are still losing soldiers in Afghanistan, soldiers who teach the Afghani's how to protect themselves, who then turn on them. Or, that must be why the Middle East is burning as the Muslim Brotherhood cuts a swath through the people to gain power over them. Or how about our Embassies being under attack, not because of a silly video, but because the chant, "death to America", heard loud and clear, still rings through the desert sands, with the promise of bringing jihad to the United States, using whatever excuse is at hand. Yep, Obama is strong on Foreign Policy. About as strong as Hillary Clinton and her "Muslim Brotherhood" sidekick, Huma.
Rome is burning........
"It is liberals that can't stop thinking about the color of Obama's skin."
Stop, stop, you're killing me. Do you play comedy clubs?
Voter suppression laws, welfare ads, a blindingly white GOP convention, thugs, pimps, Kenya, Kenya, Kenya...
The GOP is simply too cowardly to say publicly what it says privately - unless caught sending numerous racist emails - and cravenly hides behind time-tested code words.
Welcome back Southern Strategy, we've missed you so!
Well, all I can say is Obama killed Osama - as he likes to remind us - and maybe the Muslim Brotherhood should take note. Or maybe it wasn't the MOVIE but the killing of Osama. Some of the muslims attacking the embassies have been heard shouting, "WE ARE ALL OSAMA!!" Not "WE HAVE ALL SEEN A MOVIE!!"
To all of you saying Romney shouldn't criticize Obama during a crisis, do you remember Bush vs Obama? Romney's problem is he doesn't criticize enough and without enough passion. Romney, wake up. you're in a street fight.
What happened to redistribution? Is that over all ready?
Obama is a Democratic Joke.....and having someone like Jay Carney speak for him proves it!
"IF YOU ARE A "TRUE AMERICAN" - "VOTE ROMNEY/RYAN" on November 6th for better America, A better tomorrow!
Obama and Hillary Clinton are direct contributors to the death of the Ambassador and the 3 people with him, without a doubt! they should have know like the rest of us that with 9/11 coming up added security every where should be added but instead of at our world wide Embassies we tighten inspections by the TSA as po dunk airport and call it good. These to without a doubt should be terminated from office or their resignations submitted as they both are a detriment to the American way of life, liberty and the freedoms that are truly American. Shows purley they only think about themselves!!
Hate America?
Vote Obama!
"Romney's statement is not worthy of someone running for president"? You mean like Obama accusing Clinton of being a racist in 2008? Anyone who would say that is most certianly not worthy of being president.
RMomey thinks the windows on Ann's jet should roll down so she can breath if there is an electrical fire. Ever take physics, Mr. Pretend science president? And I just love that he has "business experience".
And exactly what was Obama's foreign policy expertise four years ago?
You know, back when the Middle East wasn't burning across several continents like it is now, and back when Obama promised by the sheer power of his persona that he would change the world... back when all our American ambassadors came home alive?
For Obama and the Communist Party, all opposition to complete communist takeover are just "bumps in the road".
In the debate prior to Governor Romney's election in MA, I was leaning far away from him going in. However, the debate erased any doubt. It was 100% clear that he was the man for the job. He did a great job despite magnanimous odds. Like 85% liberal dimwits in MA. He still got the job done and changed their indebtedness disaster into a surplus. Ane, he took $1 a year for all the work he did. Let there be no doubt, there was a lot of work. The regime in Boston was similar to Chicago thugocracy. Remember the Bulger family was part of that mess. Pay for play to the max.
The Bumps in the Road must correspond wih that bump on his shoulders he, the Fraud in the WH calls a head...
This man we are to call a potus epitomizes the Jackkass Party in every way.
One question comes to mind. If it were Obama, or Hillaryous, or Biden (wait that's an unfair question) instead of the Ambassador, would it still be a 'bump in the road'. Or, Pelosi or Reid.

Unless Obama is paying you to write this nonsense, YOU ARE AN IDIOT Gil.
bumps in the road...there's a stark reminder of obozo's priorities: sandra fluck is a hero, worthy of ring-kissing as well as a$$kissing, and 4 courageous Americans who every day put their lives on the line are mere bumps in the road. satan resides in the white house.
Obama is America's "BUMP IN THE ROAD."
Now all you Republicans get in your buses and go on down to the voting booth on the second Wednesday of December and cast your vote for the most logical, sensible and timely choice in this election : Mitt Ronemey.
obama is a blow hard megalomaniac as well as a girly man. ever notice his pansey hands as he's de-boarding air force one, or his femme posture as he crosses his legs while at the view? what a contrast he is to the butch hostesses.
Vote by mail in ballot, and also vote in person, and also vote in multiple states, and while you're at it, vote for other people, living or dead, and vote for pets as well.
@Instructions for GOP voters Part II
and please remember, vote early in the day so you can catch the earlybird specials!
Of COURSE Obama is paying me to simply quote RMoney and his science team. To wit:
"When you have a fire in an aircraft, there's no place to go, exactly, there's no — and you can't find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don't open. I don't know why they don't do that. It's a real problem. So it's very dangerous. And she was choking and rubbing her eyes. Fortunately, there was enough oxygen for the pilot and copilot to make a safe landing in Denver. But she's safe and sound".
What was his college major again? Love you republicans.
OMG! Obama Must Go!!
".....foriegn policy-- a relative area of strength for the president."
I, and the families of the American dead strongly disagree with that cavalier statement of blatant falsehood in your opening paragraph. I glanced up to your mast head expecting to see "Times" or "Chronicle" or "AP". No. WSJ. I was not mistaken.
6:29 could it be they where on the runway and those remarks referred to the airplane on the ground, you blow-hard? you're not seriously suggesting the man doesn't understand air pressure as well as you?
.."a relative area of strength for the president." In what universe would that statement be factual?
Go see 2016 the real truth about Obama get a real education hear the truth not the lies the socialist democrats tell you. This movie will wake you up to the real facts .Get educated.
Bumps in the road??? This man is a jerk. That's right the president is a jerk.
Just for your scientific edification, and so that I can cash another big Obama campaign check, Mittern in December 2011:
"I do believe in basic science. I believe in participating in space. I believe in analysis of new sources of energy. I believe in laboratories, looking at ways to conduct electricity with -- with cold fusion, if we can come up with it. It was the University of Utah that solved that. We somehow can't figure out how to duplicate it."
Thank God for all those Mormon invented cold fusion reactors in Utah. Why without them, the country would be burning cow fat candles for light. What did you say his college major was again? History of Mormonism or something? Mittens be big science guy no doubt. Thank goodness Mitten's science people have finally fixed global warming.
As again, I just love you republican scientists who trained in business school.
What a disgrace this idiot is. How you Americans voted him to the most important office is beyond me.
I've got news for Obama and his little stooge spokesman Jay Carney...the Muslin Brotherhood IS NOT A BUMP IN THE ROAD. Its a giant festering volcano that's ready to explode and take thousands of lives with it. This naive President, who continues to fiddle while the Middle East burns, and calls the assassination of one of our Ambassadors a "bump in the road" needs to be replaced before this world is in the flames of WWIII.
It's Mitens who wants to go to war with Iran. Ready to enlist, or are you one of those evaders like Mittens who spent his draft eligible years in a French chateau?
Yet another bone headed comment by the bi racial angel, or wait. We just do not understand what he "means"
I'm RACIST for criticizing Obama.
TERRORIST because I'm not with Romney.
ANTISEMITIC for not supporting Rothschild Zionism.
TEABAGGER for supporting the Constitution.
TRUTH-ER for asking unanswered questions.
TRAITOR for whistle-blowing on my corrupt Government.
CONSPIRACY THEORIST for presenting documented facts.
TROLL for uploading news, videos, quotes and U.S.Atrocities.
ANTI-AMERICAN for supporting 3rd partys, or no party.
So what's your point Ceejay? Go ahead and write in Ron Paul. Or Ralph Nader. Peeing into the wind has blowback sometimes.
Bump in the road??!! There are more than a few bumps on this fool's head. What a sickening, disgusting, jack-ass of a bufoon.
Please, God, let us be rid of the bastard in November.
One legislator accused me of having a nineteenth-century attitude on law and order. That is a totally false charge. I have an eighteenth-century attitude. That is when the Founding Fathers made it clear that the safety of law-abiding citizens should be one of the government's primary concerns.
Ronald Reagan - Address to the Republican State Central Committee Convention, (7 September 1973)
Well, as for me, I have 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th century ideas. Just depends on how they affect my tax bill. My position is a well oiled weather vane, which I grease daily.
"I was pretty certain and continue to be pretty certain that there are going to be bumps in the road."
And dead ambassadors dragged in the street...
But no worries; plenty of time for Obama fundraisers and golf vacations.
That worthless President wouldn't make a pimple in the road.
Hello America, Mormon God here.
Some of you say that I'm not Mormon God. But any Mormon will tell you that God is flesh-and-blood, and lives today, 2012, in outer space with his multiple wives, near the planet Kolob. So is having an internet connection really the hard part to believe?
Anyway, Mormon's also believe that God can elevate select humans to Godhead. He can / has and will elevate some humans to the level of God.
I plan to make Mitt Romney a God.
Now you have to ask yourself.. do you dare vote against a future God?
I don't think so. Mitt 2012 !!!
(sent from my iPhone)
Romney / Ryan will cut Medicare !!
That's it. That's all you need to know.
Medicare will bankrupt this country. Along with Medicade it represents 25% of the Federal budget right now. It is headed to 30+% in the next 15 years.
This is a Crisis.
Old people have to be cut-off from the welfare (that they don't even know they receive) NOW!!
Are you aware the film was made by an Egyptian?
The Mormon Church is excommunicating a member for criticizing Romney. I thought these people were such defenders of the Constitution. It includes freedom of speech.
Tax paying and insured Obama supporter.
You all need to get a life and stop being bumps in the road!!
Hmmmmm. Seems I remember warriors for hire hanging from a bridge in Faluga during the Bush administration. Just where was George? Golfing? Clearing brush in Texas? Eating a birthday cake with McCain? Or maybe he was just looking for another war to start, rather than one to end. Hey, let's start wars in Iran, North Korea, Russia, and well, there are several more candidates, just for fun. And let's cut taxes too. .
Go back to 2008. McCain accuse Obama of not having enough experience then he selects a VP running with no experience.
Fastforward to May 2012. Romney says Obama voters expects the government to support them. Two months later, he get a VP who is supported by the government. At the fundraiser, Romney never specific how someone got their support from the government. He just said they expected to be supported by the government and that these are the people who will vote for Obama no matter what. Ryan gets a government check. He expects to be supported by the government. Does that mean he's an Obama supporter.
Tax paying and insured Obama supporter
How the He!! Can I check on Seamus if I can't roll down the windows on my jet?
Romney's biggest stumbling block in his campaign is himself. He can run off at the mouth if he wants to but he had no authority to be criticizing Obama about what was going on in the Middle East before Obama said anything. Cyborg Mitt is not the president. He started running off at the mouth before getting the facts. You must get the facts then make a decision. Mitt talks first and then to hell with the facts that come later. His kind of behavior is appalling.
On Romney's La Jolla, CA house, he got a property tax break. Typical freeloading millionaire. Always trying to find ways to get government handouts. I wonder how many at that fundraiser pay Federal income tax. I'm sure it's not 100%.
Tax paying and insured Obama supporter
20,000+ have died over last several months in Syria.
President Obama has been compared to President Lincoln.
Imagine if President Lincoln referred to the battle at Gettysburg and those who died as "Bumps in the Road".
Enough said, time to remove him from office.
Oh let's invade Syria too, along with Iran, North Korea, Russia, and what the Hell, Mexico. And tax cuts for all.
Democrats are just plain insecure and evasive. They never take responsibility for what they say.
So, "bump in the road" does NOT include killing of ambassador, but just general middle east condition?
Remember "you didn't build it" did not mean "you didn't build it", it means something else.
Or Bill Clinton's "it depends on what is the meaning of is".
It is simply impossible to have meaningful discussion with any democrats, let alone debate. Of course, they will then turn around and say that you put words into their mounth.
We are in the first dregs of Winter in the time of another Muslim awakening. The jihadis have been raping and pillaging their neighbors for fourteen hundred years. The West has slept through the war with Islam during the latter half of the 20th century, but unlike a dream, the Ummah must practice the Dar-Al-Harb, or the making of war upon the Dhimmis (Christians and Jews) and any others that live and breath outside of their Sharia demands.
Apologies are not acceptable.
Obama: The big bump in America's road. We're going to need a complete overhaul after the damage he's done.
Do you know what country has the most rules, regulations, government interference and is proud of their socialist roots?
We need less rules, regulations, and encumbrances on the "haves." Like Somalia, Afghanistan or Thunder Dome.
Ryan / Romney 2012 !!!
Do you want America to become one of those Socialist Western European heck-holes (where those of us with enough money vacation)?
Or do you want us to become labor price competitive like China or Mexico?
The choice is clear.
Ryan / Romney 2012 !!!
Barry gives 1/2 the Middle East to terrorists, gets Americans killed and is completely caught by surprise by terror attacks on the anniversary of 9-11, and he considers these to be "bumps in the road"?
You need to ask yourself, What makes a country Rich?
Is it Universities, Basic Research and Infrastructure like Japan and Germany invests in?
No... It's the Military.. We all know that spending 30-40% of your tax dollars on the Military like Cold-War Russia did is what makes a country rich.
Ryan / Romney 2012 !!!!
Barry's paid troll is the one making all of the pro-Barry posts.
Defend America?
Rebuild her economy?
End debt slavery?
Sorry folks, Barry has an appearance on Letterman he has to get to!
-Welfare Queens
-Blue Collar Workers, Teachers
-Guns crowd
-God crowd
-Hillbillies who make less than $100k and would rather die than be mistaken for their welfare queen neighbors one trailer over
-The super rich who need the other three groups of morons to vote for lower taxes on the rich
Only an Indonesian expatriate, masquerading as an American president would characterize the murder of an American ambassador as a "bump in the road".
If Mao....Bama had a son he would look like the MB!
The easy dots to connect are the president spouting off every day about killing bin Ladin and he expected no blow back from that?
The Dem breakdown could have stopped with the 46%, (this excludes retirees who have already paid their fair share). Soetoro-Obama considers them a voting block to be exploited, even though enticing them onto the Democrat Plantation is exploitation enough.
Romeny / Ryan are our only hope at cutting off Medicare.
It will bankrupt this country if it is not stopped, now.
Last time I heard human deaths described as 'bumps in the road', I was watching the most harrowing part of Hotel Rwanda. Anyone who's watched it knoiws exactly what I mean.
in the groin for being a lazy 47%- er.
Wait. I just did some research and learned that Medicare is 2/3rds Welfare !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
only 1/3 of Medicare is paid for by the "Medicare Tax," people paid-in.
This means that old people who use Medicare are 47%-er WELFARE QUEENS.
OLD PEOPLE SUCK ing the $$ out of my pocket.
Darn you old people. Get off my lawn you socialist redistributing liberal gay occupy hippies !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't want to live in a world where old people get free stuff!
How dare this Kenyan refer to our patriots as "bumps in the road". I absolutely abhor this POS
I love when the MSM mention Bill Kristol has a "conservative" pundits, when in reality Bill Kristol a PUPPET of the COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS,
Bumps in the road? Events have proven Obama to simply be unable to rise to level of a minimally competent leader. He just doesn't have "IT" and many people are just seeing him for what he is..weak and indecisive, just as he was in the Illinois legislature.. All this hobnobbing with celebrities, sports figures, and talk show hosts at this time is an embarrassment to the nation. It is as if he doesn't like the job. The media can protect him only so much, but the gut feeling about him by the man on the street must be changing. Shallow men are quickly out of their depth.
Obama is a liar - he knew about the threat, 4.6 mil is only 3.1 mil unless you count the entire year of 2008, Romney is not giving any cut,
When obama talks it's a lie -
he is just like Clinton (impeached/disbarred for what? Being a liar!)
Obama is afraid to even go on Fox - of course he is afraid to meet with World Leaders at the U.N.
10 days to realize that Benghazi was terror? Either they are all liars - or completely incompetent! Books and made for TV movies will be out before Obama understands.
4 years ago he was a junior senator, Hillary was a stay home mom, and Rice was a business person....
BTW - the new site is up legacyofsuccess com
Remember - even if I talk my way into a Brain Surgeon job - I cannot claim to be a brain surgeon if I fail at every surgery!
Obama is a 1st term Junior Senator then...
the only "bump in the road" that I see is obama in the White House......
people will go quietly into the voting booths and vote for Mr Romney...they will not talk about who they voted for this time....
If it were a Republican in office, the Democrats would be rallying to run him out of town on a rail. But since it's Obama, it's "OK" to the Democrats. Obama is history in November.
I am absolutely offended by this remark. I am also very angry that the leftist media will not focus on this because it will anger the Obama Administration. What a tyranical hold Obama has on NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, NY TImes and other leftist media sources. This is so unconstitutional to have a government-run media.
Who are the idiots that feel Onothing has a foreign policy? A 5 % point drop after our ambasador is killed? What back woods cave hermit comprises the 49% who agree with Onothings policies? What policy? Energy dependence on Middle East? Leaving our best ally Israel left alone? Wake up people, WE NEED A REAL CHANGE!!!!!
A dead US Amb and 3 other Americans are "bumps in the road". Get rid of this horrid show in the
White House. He dishonors all Americans, especially those who serve. When he leaves office, we should leave WITHOUT a pension, security service, free mail, etc. Luggage and moving boxes checked for stolen goods. These people will not go into the good night silently
Any reasonable person would understand that Obama's "Bumps in the Road" comment was symbolic that the freedom transition in the Middle East, while making progress, would not proceed smoothly. What parts of this simple fact are critics unable to comprehend?
Re-critical thinker- ..."comment was symbolic that the freedom transition in the Middle East.." Freedom ?-all I see is brutality daily.
"What parts of this simple fact are critics unable to comprehend?"
The parts that contradict their pre-conceived conclusions.
What a disgrace this President is to this country. He has little time for doing his job but plenty of time for tv and talk shows. I cannot for the life of me understand how anyone could even consider voting for him again. The finger pointing, blaming others, gridlock in Congress, I could go on and on. People, open your eyes before this country and our leadership role in the world are shattered forever. As for Romney and Ryan, you had better start hammering this guy and his administration every day on his real record of no achievement and you WILL win. Come on Mitt and Paul, get fired up and get down and dirty now or else it's done.
"Any reasonable person" would also understand that the world is - quite literally - ready to combust in political turmoil, and increased human - HUMAN - suffering. And the guy at the HELM doesn't have "time" to meet with world leaders.... just no time. He's too busy on The View, 60 Minutes, and Letterman. Such a packed schedule simply doesn't allow one the TIME to "do their job"...right? Critical Thinker? I think not. Partisan Thinker? Yeah, just maybe. "Bumps in the Road" would imply that he is actually IN the vehicle traveling said road. He isn't. He is AWOL - not even attending security briefings. Tell us, Critical... what amount of "dereliction-of-duty" is acceptable, on your "critical" watch? Or are you simply "my party, right or wrong" critical?
well inside of getting out to wars, is romney's solution we should go to war in Syria, Iran, Yemen, Yemen, Somalia, Nigeria, Indonesia, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia.
Shall we just convert them to Mormonism and tell them they should play nice and not want to drink blood to meet 72 virgins?
THe bumps in the road that Mr Obama so glibly ignores are the wheels of his campaign rolling over the dead bodies of his failed Foreign Policy. His cavalier smugness could cost him this election.
Obama and his team are priceless.
Every time (and there are many) he has a weakness, he gets out in front of it by accusing his opponent of that very weakness. He is so confident that his liberal sheep and media will blindly follow him and regurgitate the rubbish he spoon feeds them. His campaign slogan, "Forward.", is such a farce after taking this country in Reverse the past four years. This has been the most disgusting presidency ever.
If Obama and his people can't protect one ambassador, who knew his demise was coming, and nobody did anything to protect him, what chance do the rest of us have when the time comes? Romney/Ryan in 2012
You can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs. You can't make peace without a few bumps in the road. Don't forget Obama is the only sitting President to win a Nobel Peace Prize.
I'm just wondering what if US to be led by someone who pays tax half of the ordinary people, someone who doesn't live common people's life, someone who most of his life earning the wall street big bucks unlike the main street people's, someone who rubs shoulder with corporate lawyer, hedge funds manager, and someone whose successful track record on hedge funds (buying, downsizing, selling for profit). I wonder what US will be.
mittromney is an
Ignore him
There shouldn't be any undecided voters by now?
to anonymous - I'm hoping you're being sarcastic; a junior senator who'd never been the executive of anthing vs a governor? and a Nobel Prize being awarded for what? If ever a "fix" was in, Obama's presidency is it.
Mormon or Moron? I'll be voting for the Mormon on Nov 6th 2012
For the life of me I can't understand why obama is still even close in the polls, he is an idiot and a liar.
When you throw Israel under the bus along with more beefed upsecurity measures on a 9-11 anniversary with al Qeada around, you will get really BAD Bumps and dead people - hopefully some land on Obama's political head !! How can any president be in good standing with Independents, or any patriot, when he and his band twisted the truth - lied - for over a week about rioting Libian civilians assauting the US consolate !! ? Incredible !!
Barry Soetoro wants to discuss anything else...see his hard hitting interviews on The View or 60 Minutes fr the 10th time. Bumps in the road sounds more like a country song vs. a tenant of acceptable, cohesive foreign policy.
When did foreign policy become "a relative area of strength" for President Obama? He had no foreign policy experience when he took office in January 2009 and was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace for waking up one morning. His policies have resulted in more disrespect for the U.S. in all parts of the Muslim World and just yesterday the President of Egypt who is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood contradicted Obama and said the relationship between Egypt and the U.S. was " omewhere between friend and enemy". Unver Mubarak at his worst, Egypt was at least an ally.
obummer....is a bump in american history....a communist muslim and a blue lipped joke
While the middle east and world burn and in total dissary, this nuckle-head-shuns world leaders and goes on the view (the left wing useless daytime show, PLEASE a daytime show) - All of you Obama supporters need to stop drinking the O-kool aid - It is truly LAUGHABLE at this point, ecomony, foreign policy etc etc.
Google this,,
Obama admits that he is a Muslim.
Disgusting video---you will puke after watching this
Obama is an incompetent leader but an excellent enemy sleeper agent. He was placed in power not by those wishing to make America better but by those who intend to see America destroyed. What they needed was an obedient narcissist with a messiah complex to be their patsy and push their agendas. These agendas were not intended to be big or bold, simply enough to undermine American values and infrastructure from within, while dividing the citizenry by using class envy and promoting racial tension. Obama fit this role perfectly because he is half African and political correctness makes it near impossible to criticize him without being call racist. Add to that his insatiable need to be surrounded by sycophants willing to lie and cover for him at every turn. What is the most troubling about Obama followers is the level at which they are invested in a failed and false belief system. For them acknowledging the truth and seeing Obama for the dangerous player he is, is more than their egos will allow themselves to admit and so they double down on a loser rather than admit the error and change direction. In the eyes of Obamatons, when the sky falls it will not be due to Obama or their poor decision making choices, it will be because not enough people unconditionally believed.
Bumps in the road! Thats what our Military is to Mr. Obama just bumps in the road!
Obama/Biden are to the nation what 4 years of replacement refs would be to the NFL.
Paolo got this point on! He is exactly right. Nuff said!
I dont get where anyone can make the comment that Obama has done anything right in the field of Foreign Relations.He has been the biggest form of catalyst in the astounding growth in violence in the Middle East.Our relationship with Russia is getting worse,China is dissing us, even as they buy us up in the form of lending us money. Our country is carries almost no weight on the planet.If the media actually did their job, the American people would see this.
bin Laden dead. Romney = toast
We have to start thinking OBAMA is for sure ....JUST A " BUMP IN THE ROAD" ! Soon we will all VOTE him out!
I'm afraid Obama will not just be a bump in the road. Read the article, half the people actually approve of this man's foreign policy. There is an alarming amount of voters that actually think Obama has done a good job, so far. It is insane.
Mitt Romney isn't a conservative candidate -- he's a business candidate. He reminds me of a car salesmen that will say anything to make the sale; even if it means lying about the other car I was considering.
Obama, the part-time President isn't even paying attention to terrorists that plot to kill our Ambassadors and then lies to the American people as to what happened. Assassination of our Ambassador and his stafff by terrorists is just "a bump in the road". What insane talk is that? We need to be be very leary of this president's anti-American actions.
Prewident Obama may call the middle east a bump in the road, I would call him a POTHOLE in the future of America.
Lis Smith, a spokeswoman for the Obama campaign......does not know her butt from a hole in the groung, Mitt is right about the words.............a bump in the road...use your common sense...this administration is OUT OF CONTROL
OH Right, Bump in the Road????? tell that to his family! that is TOTALLY OFFENSIVE.......I WOULD like to Bump his road allright!
How about this for a bump in the road Mr. Obama, you are defeated in November and have to leave the White House in January. To me that is a construction worth paying for.
As Obama pointed out during the first debate, it is not arithmetically possible for Romney to cut taxes, increase military spending, and preserve "the good parts" of ObamaCare. He is full of beans.

CONTRADICTION? Regarding President Barack Obama's gun proposal following the death of 20 children in Newtown, he said to vote your conscience. One has to wonder if he voted his conscience in 1997 when he was an Illinois senator. On Senate Bill 230, the partial-birth abortion ban act, he voted present, which effectively functions as a "no" vote. It passed 44-7. I guess one's conscience is dictated by one's desire to achieve their own personal agenda. Otherwise, how do you explain the contradiction?
