its probably very rare to people who matter, which are the only people republicans care about

middle to upper class whites. find me that pregnancy death rate among them and now you know his justification.

No worse than the people who can vote for president with a failed economic record and a failed foreign policy. 

Don't worry Obama is starting to get on top of this whole Benghazi thing.

The mother of an American diplomat killed during a terrorist raid on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi has hit out at Barack Obama for describing the attack as 'not optimal', saying: 'My son is not very optimal - he is also very dead.'

hawk, no offense, but you're retarded.

Gas prices in September 2008 were $3.76.  Gas prices in November 2008 were $1.87.  Did Bush have a drastic change in policy which impacted oil prices?  Did anything happen in October of 2008 perhaps?  Oh, that's right, the banks failed.  Gas prices don't just fall by 50%.  The economy collapsed, banks collapsed, gas prices plummeted.  The end.

When Bush entered office in January 2001, the price was $1.47 per gallon

Bush inherited a recession.

When gas hit 4 dollars under Bush people went nuts, when it stays at 4 dollars consistently under Obama, it's acceptable.

I'd say it's "Not Optimal."

huh?

Presidential policy has little to do with gas prices in the short term.  Be it Bush or Obama.  The Dems were lying through their teeth early in 08 blaming it on Bush.  The GOP is doing the same thing now. 

That being said, you said what Obama said regarding gas prices was incorrect.  It isn't.  Prices tanked because the banks collapsed.  That is what happened.  There is direct causation in October of 08.

The prices were that low because of the economy tanking.  However, when gas hits its highest mark, Bush lifted the moratorium on offshore drilling imposed by his father, and the price of gas started to drop. 

Lifting that moratorium would help with gas prices right now.

Failed economic policies! (No chance Hawk actually reads this, even though it's all in pretty pictures)

Failed economic policies! (No chance Hawk actually reads this, even though it's all in pretty pictures)

Median household income dropped 1.5 percent last year to $50,054 -- the lowest level since 1995 when adjusted for inflation -- while the proportion of Americans living in poverty was 15 percent, little changed from 2010. The 46.2 million people in poverty remained at the highest number in the 53 years since the Census Bureau has been collecting that statistic.

U6 still hovering around 15 percent.

You realize only liberals are excited about this "vastly improving" economy.  You can't convince the guy who has been unemployed, that he's better off than he was 4 years ago.   

More and more economists back Romney, just like more and more generals keep backing Romney, but Obama is the expert on economics and foreign policy.  Don't be surprised on November 6.

Right, and thanks to Republicans, there has been very little economic policy passed in the lats 2 years to do anything to stimulate the economy.
