When Bush was in office, Republicans claimed they were doing good, but now that Obama is in office they claim they are doing good still but Obama has tanked the economy. What's going on?
The way to bridge this seeming contradiction is by looking at it this way. The Republicans may now be saying they are doing good still while Obama is in office but few people believe them anymore and their popularity is not going up as a result of their claims.
It seems to me the Republicans are great at shooting themselves on the foot and that is good for the country, good for Obama and good for the Republicans in so far as they discovered a way to allow themselves to feel good about themselves even if the rest of the country doesn't take them seriously anymore.
That skill of doing good at every level and pleasing oneself by hurting oneself which the Republicans so amply possess at the moment should be highly commended :) |

...from being blown up next? In the past they would poison the king. In recent history they would shoot politicians from a distance... |

She is smart and experienced. He is funny and good-looking. She has the vision, he is on television. Who should I pick for my Vice President? Tell your President who to pick :) |

A democratic election is one based on people's votes. I don't understand why people who were not elected have power and authority to decide on an election outcome... |

I imagine that in the future paper money will be replaced by e-paper money. If electronic paper can be made to work as a scanner, it could then scan for fingertips and transmit the identity of the person when close to a wireless network... |

Pork barrel politics is spending taxpayers money on projects that benefit special interests and lobbyists... |

You can only plug your laptop if you fly business or first-class, but I certainly wouldn't mind it if I was asked to pay a few dollars more for my economy class ticket and have electric outlet for my laptop... |

I am interested in your opinion on this. If Hillary wins, she could use Obama in her cabinet, possibly as Secretary of State or at the Department of Energy to oversee the transition to a green economy... |

Have you ever thought to challenge the wisdom of relying on one president as the final authority on all matters of government? Why not vote for as many different presidents responsible for different policy areas as there are cabinet members? It is more democratic, more engaging and can be more efficient if authority and decision-making is clearly delineated! What is your opinion? |

What if the fundamental rules under which our global capitalist economy functions were changed for a day? Say there was no price on the menu because you, the buyer, decides how much to pay for a service you received or a product that you bought... |
