Romney said hit the bricks because Obama's one snowball in hell has melted.
93% of lost jobs on Obama's watch were women.

LOL! Obama is toast. His $9 a gallon energy policy is choking the life out of the dembots chances at $4.25 a gallon.

Because I'm not a libertarian, I don't subscribe to labels. I disagree with Ron Paul on a number of issues, but he says many things that need to be said.
What we have in Romney and Obama are 'herd' politicians, they speak in platitudes and appeal to the greater masses..the masses who understand the difference in menus at Mcdonalds and Burger king far better than they understand the problems that face our country.
The establishment preys on those who have 'beliefs.' They know who you are, they know how they can manipulate you. The more rigid you are, the more they can control you. And if you think any kind of change is coming to the White House via this election, well it won't be a difference in Romney's or Obama's station in life...it will be yours, as you discover the changes in shifts at Mcdonalds and Burger King and how it affects what time you set your alarm.
Only falsehoods require belief.

The president doesn't set energy prices, in fact, he has very little control over them.
Even former Bush White House Chief Economist Douglas Holtz-Eakin discounted a president's impact on oil prices: "You can‘t change the oil price very much with the U.S. exploration."

Posters like shadowalker is why we're completely doomed. It is full of idiots. I mean he honestly believes the president controls the gas prices, why? Newt Gingrich told him so, lol.
There are people who believe the only thing wrong with the world is that Sarah Palin isn't being heard, TPTB cater to these idiots because they are the majority. Our country is lost and there is no way to get it back. We're #ed. We've got posters on here like Euriska who thinks Palin is actually smart, goes to show what kind of mess we're in. It's deep, very deep.

Just playing with you folks a bit.
Does the president control energy prices? You bet he does. Both in the long as well as the short term.
One by releasing volumes from the strategic reserves he can soften the markets and drive prices down within hours.
Two by controlling new drilling he determines the full available amount of oil to the markets. Literaly changing who the money goes to.

Much the same way he is controlling the heroin trade, which includes all of the legal tons of opium that land on Big Pharma's loading docks. Anyone that says there is not direct control of oil is a liar. Same for legal and illegal opiates.
But the trolls turn reality to shillywood every time.

I presented fact. Anyone who understands the markets and the presidency knows this but since people are not following along, they need to hear it from the horses mouth.
