2016 Election

Quote: Buzzard

I liked the old day with a republican in White House.

So did I.

Lower unemployment
Lower deficits
More growth
Freedom to choose the health insurance I prefer

This is not the Viagra thread, EB.

True. LOL.

EB, you need to move blood to another part of your body. Too much Viagra or Cialis? Pick your poison.


Just playin'....check Frank's thread.

As long as they nominate people like Wayne Root as VP they will be considered a joke.

2008 was not a banner year for the Libertarian party's slate...

Not this Wayne Root REALLY ? ?

There will likely be some wildcards, like the former Godfather's Pizza CEO. (not him, but some wildcard)

Here's another example of the "objective" mainstream media:

On Election Night in Boston, Joe Biden congratulated the wrong Marty Walsh

Can you imagine the media firestorm if George W. Bush had congratulated the wrong guy? Or better yet, if Sarah Palin had done so?

I know a bunch of libs here are going to point out that the media did in fact report this story, but of course, that's not my point. My point is that similar gaffes by Republicans get blown way out of proportion, while Democrat gaffes get relatively little coverage.

The biggest proof of this is treatment of Obama vs Quayle. Both were just average Senators but Quayle was somehow an idiot while Obama was hailed as the smartest guy around. Quayle misspells "Potatoe" and he is dumb, Obama talks about visiting all 57 states plus says he is a muslim and he just misspoke.

It always irks me how Democrats (and their accomplices in the mainstream media) paint Republicans like Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush, Dan Quayle, and Sarah Palin as being "stupid", yet they portray Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, John Kerry, Al Gore, and Hillary Clinton as geniuses. Yet according to them, there is no media bias. *headshake*

I'm sure a lib is going to point out that Chris Christie gets pretty good press, but that's only temporary. Just wait and see what they do to him if/when he wins the Republican nomination. How quickly people forget that John McCain also got good press......that is, until he ran against Obama.

IIRC it didn't take a week after he sewed up the nomination for the NYT to do a hit piece on him. Seriously, not even a week.

That is how a biased press helps swing the election!!
