2012 Presidential Debate Thread - Obama/Biden vs. Romney/Ryan - October 3rd-22nd: Live 9 PM EST Toni - Polidicks

[QUOTE=SockFC;38142216]I dunno. There are a lot more Obama supporters this year than there were 4 years ago. Hell, the only people I know of that will vote for Romney are old people.[/QUOTE] generation x is even more conservative than "old people"

[QUOTE=Rocko's;38142223]Were talking about 2014 when it's still 2012. What are you doing Romney.[/QUOTE] You don't want to know what he has planned if he becomes president? (Of course knowing him, nothing is final)

[QUOTE=SockFC;38142216]I dunno. There are a lot more Obama supporters this year than there were 4 years ago. Hell, the only people I know of that will vote for Romney are old people.[/QUOTE] i use to be obsessed with john mccain and now i actually like obama because i actually did research on his opinions and what he's going to do and what he has done. a lot of people who vote just do it out of "oh well my friends told me blah blah blah is doing this so they sound like a better choice," which leads to a uneducated vote

[QUOTE=Stonecycle;38142227]If government class teaches me right, by freak chance (from observation) Romney makes it, he's going to be schooled especially on his foreign policies. Shame a vote for any other party's pretty much a vote wasted.[/QUOTE] Agree. I don't mind if somebody is part of a minority party, but when it comes down to the general election, don't vote for somebody in your party. You're throwing your vote away.

[QUOTE=acidcj;38142236]man that horses and bayonets comment was really good[/QUOTE] Really, only Obama's stutter can get in the way of his speeches. I like what they say, but sometimes he just doesn't execute it right.

[QUOTE=DesolateGrun;38142206]wow now romney supports the get out date for afganistan[/QUOTE] It's funny. Cause at the last debate he said we'd be seen as weak if we pull out by then.

[QUOTE=Valdor;38142242]You don't want to know what he has planned if he becomes president? (Of course knowing him, nothing is final)[/QUOTE] The problem is he hasn't, he's only made numbers and copied what Obama is doing/wants to do.

Obamas got a good point about military medics having to start from scratch if they want to become a nurse when they get out.

Oh shit Obama bin Laden It happened

[QUOTE=abananapeel;38141711]I realize that but what does the plus and minus mean?[/QUOTE] their lean, i guess. I'm on cspan.

obama bin laden!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

did I just hear obama bin laden

[QUOTE=timothy80;38142230]We have been encouraging Pakistan for YEARS. We are giving them a shitload of money that seems to fall into nowhere. In the end, Does Pakistan even help us? [B]NOPE.[/B] They tell us to stick it up our ass. Bin Laden hid in their country and they didn't do shit or tell us.[/QUOTE] The thing is. we have to be their friend till at least 2014. Because the thing is. We need pakistan and them to give us military access in order to have our war in Afghanistan. They're a landlocked country and Pakistan is the nearest route to transport supplies.

obama's bin laden

[QUOTE=Rocko's;38142256]The problem is he hasn't, he's only made numbers and copied what Obama is doing/wants to do.[/QUOTE] i still dont see what your problem is with him talking about what he wants to do in 2014

Obama's bin Laden nice

[QUOTE=W00tbeer1;38142247]Agree. I don't mind if somebody is part of a minority party, but when it comes down to the general election, don't vote for somebody in your party. You're throwing your vote away.[/QUOTE] well, if you aren't in a swing state your vote is pretty much of zero use. if you really want to be pragmatic, though, a third party vote isn't going to do any good in a presidential election, regardless of where you live.

It's Pakistan to the East, and Iran to the south and west of Afghanistan, with former USSR to the north of it. We kind of have to be Pakistan's friend.

It's amazing how much thought is put into the ties both of these politicians are wearing.

The moderator really needs to get the two to talk more about foreign policy and stop them from yammering about other issues and their credentials. I thought the debate so far has been shitty because of this.

Fuck this unrestrained support for drones.

Hah, Romney's answer to drones was pretty poor and sad. He didn't even know what to say at first just from the looks of his face. Romneys new motto is "Kill bad guys, JOBS, and flip flops.

That's enough debate for me tonight.

[QUOTE=timothy80;38142294]When we leave, We need to leave them alone and let them find out why they should of helped us more in the first place.[/QUOTE] Well. If we do go to war with Iran, we'll have to be their friend still. Because then we can assault Iran from the left, the right, and by sea.

drones are used in drone strikes finally i learn something

Romney is clearly not going for the bad guy vote

[QUOTE=Rocko's;38142311]Hah, Romney's answer to drones was pretty poor and sad. He didn't even know what to say at first just from the looks of his face. Romneys new motto is "Kill bad guys, JOBS, and flip flops.[/QUOTE] Drones were possibly the best thing the CIA has done in the past four decades.

[QUOTE=Mr. Scorpio;38142321]drones are used in drone strikes finally i learn something[/QUOTE] glad that's been cleared up

He's having a pretty hard time staying above the water. Obama is destroying right now.
