Do you really just wake up early everyday, log on to COPols, and hit refresh until the open thread is posted?
Do you have such a meaningless life that you feel the need to cut and paste this into the open thread every single day?
If you really believe any of this crap you post (post of which doesn’t even make sense), then I hope you realize the damage you do to your own cause by being obnoxious about it. If you are just doing it for the purpose of being obnoxious and “sticking it to liberals” at COPols, then I guess more power to you.
But seriously, I know five-year-olds with more sophisticated persuasion tactics than simply repeating the same thing over and over again.
Get a job, get a life, find a better way to spend you time. Maybe read a book or two.
31 American brothers and sisters are without a paycheck and youre worried about Lil old me?
Fact checking is popular in the political fighting session….do you object to the truth?
“Do you have such a meaningless life that you feel the need to cut and paste this into the open thread every single day?”
Yep.
Sad and miserable life. Pathetic.
It appears through other polling that Obama maybe in greater trouble then I imagined.
Romney winning Colorado? Colorado Peak Politics has a very insightful news article that reveals … well some interesting facts. http://coloradopeakpolitics.co…
More relevant or instructive …aka as disturbing to liberals … are the 40% of Hispanic voters who indicated they are planning to vote for Romney-Ryan.
Don’t make a false predictor of me … OFA and the Obama Super PACs need to step it up. The collection of funds has been merciless, although some questionable foreign deposition to Obama are muddying the waters …. when will we see action?
Now Obama and his Sunday morning spin specialists told it was an obscure YouTube video…yet the assisination of ambassador Stevens seems now to be called a planned attack on of all days Sept 11th!

Interestingly I haven’t seen Obama or any delegate of his address this 60 Minutes reporters assertions of what’s occurring overseas.
the same thing you’ve posted previously?
You’re really neat. Re-runs are great.
And thanks for embarrassing the GOP for us.

Koch brothers to workers: Vote for Romney or ‘suffer the consequences’
http://bottomline.nbcnews.com/…
Not to worry though folks . . . likely entirely legal. Let’s ask the Supremes, just the next logical step after Citizens United.
The managers have all seen budget cutbacks, lower pay, and resource constraints under Obama and the day to day employees have all had to worry about their job or that of their spouse.
I wonder just how bad Koch Industries have had to lean on their employees with the rising costs of healthcare and energy?
“under Obama” seems to be your favorite. You omit the rest of the sentence…”and the Teaparty Congress”. You continue to try to convince readers of this blog that it’s all on Obama, as though he were a monarch and is solely responsible for EVERYTHING bad that happens.
Everyone but you knows that to be bullshit. I think even you do, but you are too much of a partisan hack asshole and too immature to realize that your habit of insulting the intelligence of Pols readers COMPLETELY destroys your credibility. I don’t mind, of course, that you embarrass even the most partisan republicans (your asshat brethren AGOP, Nock, and TDFGOTB excepted), because it ends up helping to get Democrats elected.
When Dubya was president, you had a different point of view, remember? Nothing was his fault, it was all those Democrats in Congress. We should thank you, I suppose, for helping Obama get elected, but you are so crushingly obnoxious it is difficult to hold that thought for more than a few seconds.
As Dukeco1 pointed out Friday Romney thinks that the uninsured have plenty of access to healthcare and that no one dies for the lack thereof.
I really hope this comes up in tomorrow’s debate. Paul Krugman has a few choice words on the matter:
That should seem pretty obvious, right? Apparently not to Mitt.
Gee, what could Romney/Ryan be thinking?
Then eventually, those estimated 72 million folks that lose their insurance will grow smaller in number “naturally”.
“lowering health costs by attrition”.
“Fuck ’em, I got mine.”
Or in Vulture capital-speak: “right-sizing” healthcare.
