Romney VS Obama: The Megathread

[Socialist Ecuador]

Oh my gosh, Obama's actually in the lead after what he did to our country?

I don't really like any of the candidates anyway, so I went with Romney because at least he is Republican

Oh my gosh, you support the Republicans despite the fact that they stalled all of Obama's efforts to get stuff done, Ron Paul's opinions are insane, and Mitt Romney sold his soul to Bain?

Soul? Robots don't have souls.

[Confederacy of new eden]

obama, only because i dislike romney

Olbermann is essentially a left-wing O'Reilly who occasionally uses more vulgar language. I really don't think MSNBC or CNN really have much of a right to complain as a whole, though there are quite a few good journalists at both Networks.

They certainly have a right to complain, because Fox claims to be 'fair and balanced', whilst simultaneously actively pursuing an activist partisan agenda.

Example: MSNBC sponsors a series of 'free clinics' for poor Americans. Fox organizes Tea Party rallies.

Specific journalists pursue activist partisan agendas. The networks themselves are probably more interested in profits and expenditures. I would also like sources on this because I really don't keep up with either station.

Not always. There are a number of good reporters at FOX News, though they usually don't receive as much attention.

Shepard Smith

That's rather unflattering for him. I actually thought he came across as relatively moderate when I watched his program - and I rarely pay much heed to television media.

Soul? Robots don't have souls.

Calling Mitt a robot is an insult to robots. Robots think in terms of logic. Romney thinks in terms of political convenience.

Under Obama our constitution is falling apart. Say hello to the democrat version of Nixon

If people could vote into office a man like Obama on the sole platform of hope and change they can do it again under his failed presidency.
All hail the power of democracy!

USA? Free?

I though we settled this a couple pages ago.

Putin is not a citizen.

hmmmmm who would win a knife fight between vladimir putin and teddy roosevelt?

[Free Soviets]

lincoln was basically obama. big on concession and reconciliation until forced by the intransigence and stupidity of his opponents to start acting rightly.

give me the lovechild of u.s. grant and teddy roosevelt.

Roosevelt is everyone's favorite but why Grant?

he's our best superhero president, if you check out his war stories. plus, his fight for civil rights was utterly epic. total equal rights for everybody and using the full weight of the US military to crush the first klan. as frederick douglass said, "To Grant more than any other man the Negro owes his enfranchisement and the Indians a humane policy. In the matter of the protection of the freedman from violence his moral courage surpassed that of his party."
basically, he is our most underrated president and definitely one of the 5 best. the only reason people don't know this stuff is because of how successful the sons of slaver scum were at taking over the history books.

^ This. He had a really bad habit of making really stupid appointments.

no worse than literally everybody else. fuck, lincoln picked johnson (our absolute worst president by far) to be his veep.

I thought that was Genocidal Jackass - I mean, Andrew Jackson. And I don't think anyone saw that night at Ford's Theatre coming.

That means that the liberal Reagan is coming soon. You guys are fucking screwed.

I was always taught
If you are going into a fist fight take a knife
If you are going into a knife fight take a gun

So who ever took a gun to the fight would naturally win

[Ashmoria]

False equivalency - the bias in Fox News is institutional, and considerably more pronounced than any of it's opposition.

Even MSNBC, which is arguably the nearest competitor - has 'liberal' commentators, rather than an actual institutional bias.

pssst

olbermann hasnt been on msnbc in more than a year and he got fired off current tv a few months ago.

That's what living at a university without a television will do to your television knowledge...

Nonsense. Bruce Lee is just hiding.

Ted the turtle would win because turtles are EPIC.

Examples:

Both are worthless
