How are they blatantly disregarding facts?  Like that whole response literally had no backbone to it.  I don't know what you're referring to. 

btw i don't like romney, i just think there's a better chance of our country improving under him than obama.

Here's one of many pretty reliable sources. Enjoy!

Edit: from the article...
PolitiFact has chronicled 19 “pants on fire” lies by Mr. Romney and 7 by Mr. Obama since 2007, but Mr. Romney’s whoppers have been qualitatively far worse: the “apology tour,” the “government takeover of health care,” the “$4,000 tax hike on middle class families,” the gutting of welfare-to-work rules, the shipment by Chrysler of jobs from Ohio to China. Said one of his pollsters, Neil Newhouse, “We’re not going to let our campaign be dictated by fact checkers.”

Posturing in politics please. NYtimes is also a super liberal.

I don't disagree that he's fibbed or stretched the truth and made stats work for him like every. single. politician does.

But you aren't convincing me that obama is any better.

Just look at the "unemployment rate"

It's really easy to get that number to drop when you stop counting people looking for work because you gave them incentive (higher welfare amounts/numbers/foodstamps/dropping the working requirement on all of these) not to.

So he literally didn't create jobs to get the unemployment rate down. People gave up and some how that's a plus to him.

The economy is my number one concern, and Obama is incompetent in that area.

You make valid points about Obama, but personally for me, Romney just does not cut it as a better alternative.

Also, I've already voted today...which means I've pretty much endured as much politics as I can for the time being. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Anybody would have done that.

We got the info on where he was by waterboarding during the bush years. Which we wouldn't have had if obamas policies were in place back then.

Argument invalid.


ROFL
bush is the biggest reason we lost osama and 9/11 happened to begin with
he ignored clintons warnings
please


also, dont say that the unemployment isn't a fair statistic because it doesn't include discouraged workers
its always been the u-3 unempoyment rate, not like they switched from u-5 to u-3 during obamas tenure.
just look at the net job gain to see he has improved the jobs since the market crashed because of bushes policies


you talk about being incompetent with the economy...
romney says he can somehow lower taxes and the deficit... obviously he knows this is impossible hes not stupid. he just says whatever he can to get elected who knows what he actually wants to do
not to mention there have been studies done that lowering taxes on the rich does not help the middle and lower class ( by a non-partisan group). so romney/trickle down effect is just full of shit
