Was any of that supposed to make sense? I guess maybe to someone that believes that “change” is anything other than the few pennies left in the bottom of your pockets by Obama maybe it would. Maybe you should look into a job in a “facility”…even though it’s a little tougher than collecting your welfare check at least it would be a job!

No one gives mom pizza on Mother’s day! (Least of all me)“

Steak bomb? What part of the states calls it that? We offer a “Philly” with cheddar and onions and about 10 other varieties with different cheeses and toppings. Whats different about the “steak bomb” or is it just a different name?

Thanks for the invite back! I have definitely picked up a few talking points along the way however, I don’t solely watch Fox news but a number of other left channels. As I said, I like to make up my own mind. My original look at Obama was in trying to like him as I’m from NY but hate Hillary (Loved Bill though). I found that with Fox they usually show both sides of an issue while leaning one way where CNN was just complete propaganda…100 percent. Much of my info I found on line as I always look into issues. While I hated Obama’s call to take from the rich and give to the poor I decided it might be okay if he practiced what he preached but it’s a matter of public record that the man never gave anything to any body. (Google “The Obama’s charitable giving) If he dropped a dime in the church hallway he chased after it. I couldn’t and won’t respect that and you shouldn’t either!
As far as being a “fake business owner” I assure you that that’s what I am, I’d be surprised if I’m not listed as a donor on your welfare check. I have never complained about paying my fair share of taxes but I also don’t want money from any other man simply because he’s smarter, luckier or worked harder than I did. 20 hours per day is a slight exageration though. On my pass days from my state job 2 days a week, I only work 14 hours and I do take 5 or 6 holidays per year off. No one gives mom pizza on Mother’s day!

After you’ve learned a few facts that you didn’t get from the right-wing media. They tell you lies all the time, you know.

But he is very effective at parroting GOP talking points; a little too effective to be considered an independent.

And I seriously doubt that he’s working 20 hours a day. It’s another fake business owner, crying about welfare recipients and taxes. We get… what, about five of those a week posting here?

Is this site always this chatty? I love a good debate and it’s hard to find one. Our family either thinks Obama is God or that he is Hitler Junior. It’s a subject that isn’t brought up any more. I’ve never been here before but may stop back

And we’d love to see you come back. After you’ve learned a few facts that you didn’t get from the right-wing media. They tell you lies all the time, you know.

The Bybee memo of 2002 defines the reason for the “creation” of GTMO: Individuals who are detained within the US, may be subject to a more complicated set of rules established by both treaty and statute.

In other words, all the SERE reverse enginered techniques could not be used if these individuals wwere held in the US.

The 11-20-08 Inquiry into the Treatment of Detainees in US Custody report reveals the mentality of the White House after 9/11. The 11-15-2001 memo from John Yoo indicates that the GWB led administration was thinking very early on about how to get around the laws of this country and Geneva Conventions.

Rove somehow thinks that President Obama is responsible for GWB and his entire administration…sounds like a bait and switch rhetorical argument, which is meant to divert the conversation away from the “facts”.

As President Obama has stated, Americans have a hunger for explanations and complexity and a willingness to acknowledge hard problems.

The DC idea that you “dumb down” explanations is why the war in Iraq occurred and the public has rejected the administration and all of its BS, something Rove refuses to acknowledge.

Actually…the first time I had a problem with Obama was his “redistribution of wealth” thinking. I pay my wife approximately 4 bucks an hour and myself nest to nothing despite the restaurant grossing a quarter mil. If he adds 10 percent tax I would close my doors. My wife and I give to dozens of charities and organizations that would be hurt in addition to a number of people being put on unemployment. In another year or two we will actually start to make a little money but after 7 years of killing ourselves…we deserve it. Redistribution just promotes laziness

Great Italians….provolone, genoa, peppy and capocola ham. We had 6 or 7 quizno’s set up in the area nad they all went under…too many good sub shops around here

How about some sort of “Italian”? I don’t really dig turkey subs.

I have a pizza/sub place and make weird specialty pies…I would suggest our zesty chicken bacon ranch or our cream cheese with ham and bacon. Our turkey sub made with real chunks of turkey is a big seller too. You’re right, it is tough and not a route I would take again
