The clouded mind of an Obama Kool-Aid drinker!

The following is a Facebook conversation I recently had with an Obama Kool-Aid drinker named Steve. It occurred after the first Presidential debate. During this salient part of the conversation we happened to be discussing the video from the Rose Garden on Sept. 12th 2012. It is self explanatory and quite amusing:

Steve Mitt blew it last night. Especially the part about the President not calling it terrorism in Libya when he clearly did. Mitt was off his game the rest of the night. He also doesn't like listening to women like Candy when they tell him his time is up. A big bully and not the way we need to go.
James You mean a big bully like Joe Biden the week before? Give me a break. Romney simply answered the questions asked him and corrected Obama’s continual misrepresentations. He didn't blow anything. Libya: At the funeral several days after the attacks the President, Hillary and everyone else in the administration blamed the video over and over and over. They said specifically that it was NOT a terrorist attack. These facts are indisputable. The President is accountable for these deaths.
Steve Mitt will lose big in November, my friend. And after he does, it will be interesting to see all the jobs he doesn't create with all his wealth.
James This is the result of way too much MSNBC Obama Kool-Aid! Steve, c'mon at least try to be objective. I will admit that O put on a better debate....but he argued the SAME talking points and his attacks on Romney were misplaced. Does Obama really expect to win by slamming Romney with his 47% comment? Romney said multiple times he wants 100% of the population to succeed and prosper. The President ignored this and shot his 47% load anyway.
Steve True, James, but the fact is Mitt did talk about the 47% as if they were vermin (which, in his eyes they are). A man that rich just cannot relate to the average person. Obama certainly has his faults but I think he's the better candidate. Quite frankly, when it comes to jobs, neither one is going to be able to do anything. Romney seemed like a bully last night. You know he hates women (or certainly doesn't think much of them). SNL will likely have a very funny parody of the way Mitt bounced around uneasy and angry at not being able to continue talking when his time was up. I give Candy Crowley mad props for keeping the both of them in check and being the captain of the ship (unlike Jim Lehrer who sucked). Tell me, James, where were the wealthy in the last ten years??? No jobs so that point is long moot.
James "where were the job creations by the wealthy in the last ten years?" Do you live in the United States? You say: "You know he hates women". Is there really any point of going any further? By the way, Obama talked several minutes longer than Romney according to CNN. Funny how you didn't mention anything about that, OR the fact that Obama ALSO interrupted on several occasions. Over-tax and over regulate business (as the Obama admin has done over four years) and they have to lay people off in order to stay in business. This is second grade economics.
Steve Yes, unfortunately any real jobs created were outsourced to other countries. Where are they here (since the wealthy are so great at creating jobs)? Time was, that statement was true. But the wealthy have created no significant jobs in THIS country in over a decade. The wealthy make THEMSELVES wealthier. That's about it.
James Your source for this information? Care to visit the Bureau of Labor Statistics for the real facts on this? This is exactly why I mentioned the Obama kooliad earlier. Obamamania so clouds the mind that even the governments own statistics are set aside as fake. Unbelievable.

Then the piste de resistance:
Steve Me thinks you will all be very disappointed on the 6th:)
James When Obama loses, Democrats will blame it on racism. Mark my words.
Steve I promise I won't say it's racism. Still looks pretty good for Mr. Obama. Let's face it: Romney will get no Women, Latino, African-American or under 30 vote. That's pretty much most of the country. I honestly don't even believe it will be close. We shall see.
I never did hear back from Steve!

U.S. Soldier Survives Taliban Machine Gun Fire During Firefight!

No rounds penetrated his body armor, and he made it home with no permanent injuries. This happened in Kunar Province, Afghanistan. *READ* From the cameraman: " I got a hit a total of 4 times. My helmet cam died and i made it down the mountain on my own. I was also hit in the side of my helmet and my eye pro was shot off of my face. We were doing overwatch on the village to recon and gather intel. I was point heading down the face of the hill with the LT. when we got hit. the rest of the squad was pinned down by machine gun fire. I didn't start the video until a few mins into the firefight for obvious reasons. I came out into the open to draw fire so my squad could get to safety." "A round struck the tube by my hand of the 203 grenade launcher which knocked it out of my hands. When I picked the rifle back up it was still functional but the grenade launcher tube had a nice sized 7.62 cal bullet hole in it and was rendered useless. "
This footage is part of an ongoing documentation of the war in Afghanistan.

Obama/ Romney 2012: On the issues!

I did a little research of my own on the two remaining Presidential candidates and their stated positions on a host of issues. The linked website lists and includes quotes from the candidates themselves, therefore it is completely unbiased. I did this because I want to make an informed decision at the polls and help others to do so as well. A decision that is color and party blind. Also included i...
s their individual stated opinion on the belief in and nature of God, which is important to me personally. Enjoy!

President Barack Obama issue positions: http://votesmart.org/candidate/political-courage-test/9490/barack-obama-ii/
Stated opinion on belief in and nature of God:
In a 2004 interview. with Cathleen Falsani, Barack Obama said, “I believe that there are many paths to the same place.” Obama also said, “All people of faith—Christians, Jews, Muslims, animists, everyone knows the same God.”

Senator Mitt Romney issue positions:
http://votesmart.org/candidate/political-courage-test/21942/mitt-romney/#.UGci-JG9KSM
Stated opinion on belief in and nature of God:
Mitt Romney is a self admitted life long Mormon. Mormon founder and leader Joseph Smith believed and Mormonism today teaches that God was not always God: “We have imagined and supposed that God was God from all eternity. I will refute that idea, and take away the veil, so that you may see clearly....and that he was once a man like us; yea, that God the Father of us all, dwelt on an earth, the same as Jesus Christ himself did, and I will show it from the Bible” (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pp.345-346.

God bless the USA!
