		<description>I think these are very dicey times for the American people; we need to put sentiment aside and be logical in our decision making of who becomes the president for the next four years. There are so many indications pointing out that Mitt Romney isn’t going to be a good president. First, his records as governor of Massachusetts was poor, hence he couldn&#039;t get a return ticket. I think if he was a good politician he should have had a return ticket at one time or the other. Secondly, Romney&#039;s emergence as the Republican flag bearer is questionable as there are better candidates who would have performed better but it was obvious he bought his way through the primaries to become the presidential candidate. Thirdly, his reaction to the Arab / Muslims springs clearly portrays that he would go to war again just like his republican predecessors did and we can&#039;t afford another war. This is a very logical issue and because of its importance, the white house is not ready to make it a point of discussion ‘cos it will undermine our foreign policies and we&#039;re not ready to give a hint to the outside world that we lack the funds to pursue further wars. Americans should not forget in a hurry that we&#039;re yet to recover from the economic demise resulting from the wars that was fought by the bush administration. I think the greatest mistake America will ever make is to elect Romney as our president; he’s not trust worthy, and unreliable. Romney lack credibility and I don&#039;t think he will be able to crack-down on China like he said tonight &#039;cos most of the companies he supports do business with China. I believe Romney must think we&#039;re kids hence; he&#039;s taking us (American people) for a ride. I reserve further statements but I want everyone to think this through before making hasty decisions at the polls.</description>

		<description>Many wealthy Democrats have offshore accounts including Senators Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.), Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.), Frank Lautenberg (D., N.J.), and John Kerry (D., Mass.).

		<description>POSTED BY: LIBRARIAN53 &#124; OCTOBER 15, 2012, 4:09 PM 4:09 PM you voted for Pres.Obama the first time around and you will vote for him again, with knowing nothing about the man, exept that he was a community organizer had business dealings with a know fellon and hung around people who are home grown terrorists, yet to you he is the greatest. 
Remember Winston Churchill words, if your 20 and not a liberal you have no heart, if you&#039;re 40 and not a conservative you have no brain.</description>

		<description>Questions fom the audience, that is a choke right, there will be so many democrats in that hall with pre written questions from David Axelrod  to be ask to make Pres.Obama the knight in shinning armour. 
All I can say everyone go out and urge your neighbors, friends and especially your family to go and vote, or they will be voting automatically for the opposition.</description>

		<description>95% of blacks will vote for Obama.  66% of other minorities will voto for Obama.  50% of women will vote for Obama.  But 80% of educated white males are mad as heck and are not fooled by this pompous socialist and will see that he is fired in November.</description>

 the Independent Advisory Board has the explicit task of achieving specified savings in Medicare without affecting coverage or quality.
How is that a death panel?
DID YOU SLEEP THROUGH ECONOMICS 101?</description>

		<description>And I don’t think too many middle class Americans, or many candidates for the presidency for that matter, have off shore accounts and Swiss bank accounts.
Shouldn’t a president have a bit more loyalty to their own country?

Most offshore accounts are used for foreign currency hedging, which is perfectly legal and a smart investment strategy for large diversified portfolios. Many wealthy Democrats have offshore accounts including Senators Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.), Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.), Frank Lautenberg (D., N.J.), and John Kerry (D., Mass.).

Before he died, Ted Kennedy had few personal assets in the U.S. Kennedy moved his entire personal estate assets to an offshore trust located in Tortola, British Virgin Islands (BVI). BVI has no estate or death taxes.

Back in July, disclosure forms revealed that even Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a member of Congress from Florida, previously held funds with investments in Swiss banks, foreign drug companies, and the state bank of India.

Are you accusing these Democrats of having no loyalty to their own country?</description>

You can&#039;t reduce payments to doctors and reduce the frequency of diagnostic procedures and expect no changes to coverage or quality. Experienced doctors don&#039;t work for free and many diagnostic procedures are life-saving. Are you really that clueless?</description>
