Oh God Please Make This True!
Magox replied to Dave_In_Norfolk's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Wrong. If Israel goes at this alone it would cause such political domestic pressure on our Arab allies, that not even they would be able to support the strike, which would cause an upheaval specially in this "Arab Spring" middle east world we are living in today. What would be more politically palpable for our Arab allies is to have a unified coalition. There is a reason Jim, why Israel hasn't already done this, and that's because we have been telling them for years not to. This has been happening from both the Bush and Obama administration. Why? Because of the point that I just made. Sorry, when you say stuff like this, it just makes you look like a caricature of yourself. -
Let me just say this, William COdy is talking out of his ass and just about everything he said, is incorrect.

This actually was my original point. Couldn't of said it better.

You know how the president is on his "We can't wait" campaign tour, where he tells the public how we can't wait for Congress to do nothing, and then he passes these inconsequential executive orders in an attempt to show that he is doing something? So how about the XL pipeline Mr President? We're talking about 10's of thousands of directly related jobs and over 100 thousand indirect jobs that would be created with PRIVATE sector dollars and that would help keep longer-term energy prices down. Oh yeah, it's called shoring up the base, he knows he doesn't want to lose his looney left wing environmental base, so what does our presiden do? He punts the decison for after the elections. He should change his campaign tour to "We CAN wait! Till after the elections"

It's not price gouging and it has nothing to do with profits, unless you are talking about from a retail point of sale. It's common knowledge that the 4th quarter of the year is the highest demand quarter for Crude oil, hence the higher prices. Let's not try to create more boogeymen than there already are. -
Mitt Romney is a quack and a political peon

To the underlined part referenced above. Did YOU just say that? Why don't you reread your original post and tell me how many absolutes you wrote. I think you missed the words "if" and "accepts", but I get what you were trying to do But to the broader point, Rubio will be Mitt's top pick if he wins the primaries, which I believe he will, it's just a matter of Rubio accepting. In regards to your belief that the W.H isn't worried about Mitt, well.... You're just wrong -

Sorry Jim, I don't criticize him for everything he does just the majority of his decisions..... Also Dave if u believe allowing Iran to have a nuclear weapon won't impact long term prices well than you have a screw loose somewhere -

Allowing Israel to take care of it would be a worse option.....unless you are pulling for a regional war....the best strike scenario is to have a joint coalition mission -

Iran situation is very complicated .... On one hand you can't allow them to have nuclear capabilities, the odds of a nuclear arms races occurring in the middle east would dramatically increase, couple that with the hate for the Jews and their rhetoric, at some point nuclear war would be inevitable in that region... However we can't afford another war... I suppose tactical strikes on their facilities and enough boots on the ground to get the job done might be the solution....along with a lot of praying and hoping they the iranese don't attempt to dramatically escalate the war..... Also the Obama strategy with Libya, the lead from behind role may not be a bad idea...something along the lines of using our air capabilities and foreign boots on the ground such as the French or brits -

I did a lot of work on the health insurance bill....Is there any way I can retrieve it, the huge thread regarding the bill? I can't find it, if someone could post it I'd appreciate it. -
Mitt Romney is a quack and a political peon
Magox replied to Juror#8's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
When I see these commentators cite these polls that show Obama leading some of these candidates attempting to make the point that despite the terrible economy obama is still winning in the polls without prefacing the fact that during primary season favorability ratings for the candidates go markedly lower and that this is typical it just shows one of two things. Which is that they are making an intellectually dishonest argument or that they simply don't have the mental capital to connect these dots. I suspect that jurors poonana is still sore simply because I called out his knowledge of what his "in-the-know" contacts told him... Let me the first to tell you your contacts don't know ****. -

I wouldn't be so sure....one thing to say no now, another when the time actually comes and the intense internal pressure comes abound....I'm hoping for Rubio......Christie would be my second choice...christie would bring lots of energy to the campaign which is romneys weak political point and he would be a great attack dog on the campaign trail that would rev up conservatives -

Yes world oil demand is up.... Natural gas hasn't fallen because world demand is rising plus it's already fallen a shitload.....there is so much of it on the market, hard to see prices moving up for a sustained period of time -

And really, what independent gives a **** what hard line right winger Eric Ericsson has to say? Where juror8 shows his willful ignorance is that the independents will decide who will win the 2012 elections, Period! And considering how the right loathes Obama much like the left did with bush they will simply show up to vote against him....and considering how Obama has lost independents since the health insurance bill debacle and no matter what he has done to try to recapture them, he hasn't been able to move the needle.....even in the polls now, half of them have Romney winning, and this is during the looney primary season, when just about every candidates favor ability ratings go down.. Wait until the primaries are over, they will coalesce around Romney, and his polling numbers will consistently be anywhere from 2 -5% higher than Obamas.....and if Rubio accepts the vp nomination, "turn out the lights, party's over" Romney wins in a landslide election, recapturing nc, fl, Virginia,ind and Ohio And what is "amateur hour" is ur citings of any polls of how romney is losing against Obama during loony primary season...the fact that he is up in just about half the polls when during primary seasons where many voters are so committed to their candidates that they can't bring themselves to voting for Romney for this hypothetical matchup speaks volumes... Once the hypothetical matchup turns into the actual matchup, those numbers will change in his favor.... Which is it? Are you so beholden to your illogical perspective that you just can't change your hardened view? Or are you simply incapable of reason? It's one of the two -
