My mind got made up a loooooooooooooong time ago.
Do not forget that when originally elected, the Secret Service budget was quadrupled.

Very Interesting!!
Whatever the President is claimed to be, Romney is certainly far worse and more of a liar (at least that is what the vote said). Those of you who complain your military pensions are being robbed and social security is being targeted for being deleted as well (The Republicans call it an entitlement - like I haven't paid into it for 42 years!!??), and truck drivers that can't get a decent wage any more, be assured that if Romney were President now, whatever is left now would be even more depleted by Romney and the rich cronies who pulled his strings. Wealth distribution in this country has never been this skewed in the last 80 years, and the rich won't stop until we all serve them - and not at McDonalds.

Not a crime to be rich....esp. if you've earned it through hard work and persistence, which Romney has. Wealth redistribution is another name for Obamacare.

Did Romney earn it or silver spoon fed? How about forgetting where you came from? Not a crime but its immoral

How come nobody knows how Bush, the grandfather, conspired to overtake the U.S. government with military force?
With G.M. and others by his side.

Just what does silver spoon fed mean? Being rich/wealthy/well to do/well off/very comfortable/extremely happy is immoral now?

Again very interesting.
I believe being rich to the point where you do not care about your fellow Americans is not what this country was all about in the past. The rich these days do the hard work on Wall Street getting rich by toppling our economic system as they have done in this most recent depression - illegally. One thing I do criticize the President for is not pursuing criminal charges against these Wall Street moguls and sending them to jail. Stated income loans - really??!!
And Romney is well known for shielding his income in other countries and avoiding paying taxes here in the U.S., plus he and his cronies have secured numerous exemptions from paying income tax through such tricks as earned income credits on their investments, etc. Not to mention his companies such as Bain Capital buy companies, take the spoils as they send them into bankruptcy or send the jobs overseas to make even more money. They obviously care about U.S. citizens and jobs, right? Its all about making more money. Romney was even caught saying to his select elite backers, he doesn't car about the other 47%, which probably more than anything else lost him the election. And he wanted Chrysler and GM to go bankrupt, a couple of the remaining companies that are headquartered here still and helping our economy greatly now that they have been restructured.
It is the Republicans in the House that are more than willing to spend ridiculous amounts on military spending to serve the military industrial complex of successful military contractors, stoke the desire to conduct wars in the Middle East (as if the wars Bush got us into there didn't serve enough of a lesson) to keep this ridiculous spending going, while saying we need to balance the budget by reducing the pensions of the military personnel who served this country well and with dignity and sacrifice in the past as a means to help offset these expenditures? It is the House Republicans who want to cut social security for those who have paid into it for numerous decades while wanting to continue to subsidize big oil (as if they don't already make enough money off of us?) and then calling Social Security an entitlement! And it is the House Republicans that want to stop any efforts to regulate Wall Street more to prevent another collapse that we are still trying to pull ourselves out of.
And how is it "American" to see corporations making more profits than ever, buying up nice new shiny fleets of trucks and then paying poverty wages to their drivers because "they can", thereby sending their previously skilled drivers into early retirement and hiring only the lowest on the totem pole? I sincerely hope their insurance bills skyrocket on them to teach them a lesson. What about the moral decency to take care of fellow employees that helped make these companies profitable who possessed valuable skills over the years that helped them succeed. Just dump them because you can? That isn't the America I grew up in - sorry!
I used to be a Republican until the moneyed Tea Party took over and all the greed and immorality they represent. We all need to watch the ball much closer than we have, as we are being had by a sophisticated network of talk shows designed to take our eyes off the ball while generating hate in their yell radio shows. Those who take their freedoms for granted will lose them.

Oh K. Well, respectfully your first paragraph tells me all I need to know. One thing I think we can agree on is that in America you can believe what you will.

Truck driver, skilled worker... thats rich... Last I knew romney lost so trying to blame that tool for anything is just a plain waste of time. Dems/republicans are different sides of the same coin.
Funny how democrats hated Bush and his policies sooooo much but just cant get enough Obama and the continued policies of shrub. All he's done is continued and expanded the policies of his predecessor.

Obamacare has done absolutely nothing for me except raise the cost of my healthcare plan...significantly. Thanks Mr. Obama.
