Apparently you think ATS points win a debate


Yes I have seen your posts.. and it looks like you play off of the people like BH who have 10000000000 ATS points. You might try thinking for yourself and stop watching the Criminal News Network.

I'm sorry, but taking time to do the blog thing is not my thing. I like hopping on ATS to see the silly posts by sheeple like yourself.

Im tired of seeing Obama this and Obama that because when you get down to it .. He's just another epic failure to add to the bad reputation of this country and those that follow him and just fuel for the fire.

Apparently you haven't seen my posts. If you did, you'd know that I never watch CNN. In fact, you'd know that I'd much rather watch Fox News or listen to Conservative talk radio.

That way, I can prepare myself for the crazies who watch/listen to those programs (i.e. you) and do my own investigating Online at home.

*Edit to add:

Though CNN still beats the hell out of the blogs you guys get your news from.

Of course Obama hasn't kept his promises for two very obvious reasons.

1) He is a politician and everyone knows politicians are the only people who can lie better than lawyers.

2) He is leading the liberal party and (please don't take offence at this) but in the current economic climates liberal ideals have no hope. In times like this you have to be tighten your belt and help those who help themselves and noone else.

I would like to say "haha you lose" however my country is led by the Labour Party and they've messed up our economy even worse than yours.

Hey,most politicians are lawyers

You don't want to offend the liars er um lawyers.

Oh... the humanity

Lying in politics isn't exclusive to "liberals," "lawyers," "lefties," or anyone else...

Has anyone else been catching the news as they go over each and every promise that George W. made to get elected? And how he didn't come through on any? Like how he said he was going to "unite" not "divide." Yeah right... look at what a wonderful job he has done, right?

Also.. Bush and company lied 935 individual times to get us into war...

Or how about anytime Bush said anything about supporting a free market? That was a downright lie, as we have seen now. I would be surprised if Bush uttered one truthful word in his entire 8 years.

Or has anyone actually compared promises to get elected to actions in office? THEY HAVE ALWAYS USED THE SAME LINES AND GENERIC PROMISES AND NEVER COME THROUGH. All of them. But with all the movies, internet stuff, cell phones, working 40 hours a week, stressing over bills, taking care of family... it seems everyone forgets quite easily all the lies we have been fed. How sad


The only real option Americans have is to never believe a word out of a politicians mouth. Anything that comes out, we have to assume is worthless BS because that's the way it always has been and this is holding true already even for the messiah Obama. If you believe a word any politician says, you deserve whatever con job they just pulled on you...

Oh…the nostalgia! I have missed all of the inane Obama bashing! For a while there I thought ATS was being repopulated with intelligent posters.

The general theme here seems to be that since Obama appears not to be the fevered liberal lunatic that the anti-Obama camp claimed he was…all of those Obama “worshippers” must be disappointed.

..somehow assuming the far right spin they have been regurgitating …Obama the “socialist” with a “far left agenda”…was accurate and the reason people supported him?

What complete ignorance, silliness and nonsense …but it does afford a new round of Obama bashing…facts be damned…right?

In the absence of the election I feel it less and less important to refute this kind of nonsense…distortion of truth, folks not actually reading the articles, making things up …during the election cycle it seemed necessary to speak out against the BS, but now it just seems sad to me the way so many are desperately grasping at straws to attack Obama even before he has taken office.

I am by no means an unconditional Obama supporter, I am rather hopeful, but with doubts. But the nonsense you folks come up with…geez….Obama thus far, before and after Nov. 4th, has been honest about his plans and their contingency on both the economic and general security climate in the USA.

All of the name calling does not make the above statement any less true.

* And personally attacking BH…She calmly responds with links and facts to claims that most politically educated folks laugh at. You should be appreciative that she actually takes the time to respond to this nonsense in an honest tone…but instead you throw tantrums, call names and disparage her because she has ATS points? Seriously?...Like I said at this stage this nonsense seems sad to me.

I don't support any politicians. I don't swing left or swing right. But what constitutes an 'epic failure' before you are sworn in?

Is letting your country/attacking your country(whichever theory you subscribe to) on 9/11 or being on watch as the economy tanks, or killing 4000+ US troops for a false war an epic failure?

See, we can go back and judge what he did while he was there.

The best part about ATS is all the off the wall comments that people come up with. "Deny ignorance" ... how ironic

Erm if you hadn't noticed a most people are not going at Obama over who he is or what party he leads. People are merely saying that he has started to renege (I think thats the right word) his promises before he's even properly in. And others are just saying that we shouldn't be surprised as nearly all politicians break most of their promises.

Recession requires scaling back promises?


If it's sooooo bad that he can't come through with his election year promises, then how about scaling back the INAUGURATION? Afterall, if we can't afford those basics that Obama promised (and that some sheeple actually believed he'd deliver on), then we certainly can't afford the most expensive inauguration in history.

It is now expected to be $160 million.

Story Here


Despite the recession, Barack Obama’s inauguration will be the most expensive ever and could approach $160 million — nearly four times what George Bush’s inauguration cost four years ago.

You beat me to it Flyer. It will be over 200 million by the time it is said and done. Add that to the almost billion he raised from America instead of using federal funds already collected and he has taken quite a bit of money out of the taxpayers pocket.

Yeah, bring in the new guard. All we got was the Clintons back.

The same kooks who want unlimited spending for this party criticized Bush's inauguration 4 years ago when the economy was much stronger.

Now, because it is Obama they want carte blanche. The Obama double standard is gut wrenching. Not just for this party but for everything he does or has done. I bet the MSM would have you believe the his turds smell pretty good also.

Now, he has the second wave of TARP/Monopoly money to play with. This money will vanish before our very eyes. He couldn't wait to get his hands on it.

What exactly was everyone expecting? Rome wasn't built in a day. I feel bad for anyone that thought President Obama's world would explode on the scene as of January 21, 2009. Anyone who thought this man would turn things around in a New York minute and bring us back to prosperity with only the snap of a finger truly needs their common sense resources stocked. I'm still not sure why Obama poses a greater threat to this country's "freedom" than old Georgie. Someone please explain what monumental successes President Bush achieved in the last eight years?

Yeah as if the sheeple the MSM told everyone to vote for would be recognised as "the smart thing" to do. As if voting the most in-experienced, un-qualified, un=tested, un-known stranger, with his unsavory friends dis-honest business dealings with this unscrupled mystery man, was somehow seen as "unique" and unusual?

As if this man with his un-realistic approach to politics and unethical methods of garnering voter support bussing in voters from other states to give him landslide victories where recorded votes out numbered the population of that states registerd voters wasn't to be admired like so many blushing obama girls.




The general theme here seems to be that since Obama appears not to be the fevered liberal lunatic that the anti-Obama camp claimed he was…all of those Obama “worshippers” must be disappointed.



Gee maybereal,, after all the "other" points made about this guy, from his motions to support clinical infanticide to his addendum to an Illinois bill for teaching grade appropriate sex education starting from kindergarten wasn't seen by anyone of you blinded by the Obama Phenomena for having carte blanche lattitude for blameless blunders and boondoggles, would it even matter either way to an obamanoid like you.



What complete ignorance, silliness and nonsense …but it does afford a new round of Obama bashing…facts be damned…right?


RIGHT! Now you are begining to see this as it really is because when it comes to Obama, facts are sealed and factcheck.org has already seen to the rest and as usual, finds Obama is not guilty of anything but being, misunderstood.



In the absence of the election I feel it less and less important to refute this kind of nonsense…distortion of truth, folks not actually reading the articles, making things up …during the election cycle it seemed necessary to speak out against the BS, but now it just seems sad to me the way so many are desperately grasping at straws to attack Obama even before he has taken office.


Really, what difference would it make anyway to you Zombies in the all volunteer disinfo army?


I am by no means an unconditional Obama supporter,


I have seen all your posts maybereal and all I got to say is

YA HAD ME FOOLED! Dayum, if you hadn't said that, I d think you had Obama's toilet flushings dangle from your cars mirror as some keen kool airfreshner.



All of the name calling does not make the above statement any less true


Obamanoids look for truth like a crook looks for a policeman.



* And personally attacking BH…She calmly responds with links and facts to claims that most politically educated folks laugh at. You should be appreciative that she actually takes the time to respond to this nonsense in an honest tone…but instead you throw tantrums, call names and disparage her because she has ATS points?

Personally, I have a lot of respect for BH whether her defense of BO is warranted or not, BO is always BO and America has chose to go with BO but that don't mean it still doesn't smell like BO

It stinks just like BO

When did you ever care about anyone being facetious about your "Conservatism" Mick? Your leftist opinions so bereft of support by anything other than upchuck or fratchick.org whatever the name for the perpetual alibi factory defending all the Obama girls and kids who like you, use CNN to compare news to what you call our "blogs" when it is the bloggers who have busted CNN for being so guilty of all those dirty little lies about McCain running negative ads when Ironically, after the election we find out all those negative ads were really true after all. Oooops I guess we got to check our factchecker more often eh Miock.

I suppose being one of the MTV generation of voters where all that is important is NOT what Obama spends on such vain and self aggrandizing ceremonies that amount to the taxpayers paying for Sarah Palins wedding dress being a huge expense for something that will be worn once only.

But then again it was all those so called concerned Obamanoids that made such a big deal about her clothing expenses that now think 175 million dollars for a one day celebration coronation of the king who bought the white house with his good looks and some muslim billionares mega bucks is without merit where BO is concerned.

I don't get it Mick, I watch the same news you do,,

So I don't get it mick, either ya like guys with there shirts off or,,


"
I realized after you showed me a picture of yourself with a shirt off that arguing with you is pointless." - Irish M1ck


is it because I'm white that makes the difference. ?

Try reading a little about the News you use so often


Find out why factcheck.org and CNN are worse then the bloggers Mick

Do a little research for once. You know the kind called BOOKS and not videos some bimbo made for yourtube that gets defended as serious journalism by CNN and MickCheck.org
