Lenn, there is no logical reason to not have voter ID's required.  Every person in the US that is 18 or older can getr an ID once in their lives.  It would last forever. 

Wallace, I don't know if it is Charlotte alone, The feds gave them 50 million for "security" so it would seem the town would like the attention.  Other than the state polls showing Obama losing to Romney by 4-5 points and the state overwhelmingly rejecting Obama's same sex marriage, I can't understand why the left doesn't want to come here. 

Richard, the courts have ruled that corps can put in incredible amounts of money.  Is it right?  They seem to think so. But let's look at the other side.  Is it right to have unions take money from people that don't want to join and give it lump sum to democrats?  How can that be fair?  Not only do you have to join the union in many jobs, you have to see your money go to people you disagree with!  If I am wrong, how come the unions in Wisconsin have lost 25% of there membership since the new laws were put in place to stop the monopoly of unions there?  I agree, both need to go.

Mark, no it is not, I am not a Republican, and always vote for the best candidate in my opinion.  Obama has had 4 years, he has not lived up to his promises, trillions wasted.  When Romney wanted a company to succeed, he put in his money or money from his investors.  Obama funded pet projects that an idiot could se would fail. Even Bush, that bungling dummy that the left loves so well did not put money in Solendra.  How is wanting someone to be careful with money bias?

Gary, explain the last 8 years as being that bad?  The bubble burst. it was made by both parties.  It took 20-30 years to show up.  Every time the government puts money in something it creates a bubble.  Now, regardless of what the left wants, the public trough bubble is bursting.  (See Stockton CA for more information)  Did you have a job in 2000-2008?  More people did than now.  More people had money in the bank and in their homes.  These are just facts.  We are still at war, bombing more countries without congressional approval (that means your approval) The government has expanded every law that Bush put into action. More Patriot Act type rights violations on Obama's watch, more executive orders that restrict our present and future rights, but not a peep out of the left.  It is a bad argument and smacks of democratic talking points.

Wrong he is black in his mind and acitons.  He has outright rejected his heritage.  Silly me to think he has something about us whites sitting in the back of the bus.

Jeri, is that an argument for not saying anything?  If it is, you give people no credit   They are better than that.  And if 50% of the population can't get interested in good discussions about their countries future, maybe they will pay the price when if fails.

Lisa, that is pretty much my take on the Obama administration.  If you take away the trillions spent, he has accomplished nothing.
