Re: Obama hit the campaign trail today

C'mon, I thought we got rid of the Politics section?

I don't think I can take two years of political stuff on this car forum again.

Boohoo, don't get all butthurt just because you don't agree with the majority's opinion.

Re: Obama hit the campaign trail today

I hate politics on car boards, especially the one I used to actually be on regularly, but this just made me laugh.

I don't give an F about the majority opinion, but that doesn't place me either way(I'm not for or against any side fully). I just hate the vibe of politics in general. I personally do not feel politics have any place on a car forum(any car forum). Of the different forums I frequent, the best experiences come from those which are political free.

uhm... last i heard obama won the last Presidential election, by just shy of 10 MILLION VOTES. At this point during a game where the losing team is talking shit, the winning team would yell SCOREBOARD. Just sayin. That is all. thank you for your time.

Politics get no where because neither side will listen. I recently got into it with a friend on Facebook and it involved each of us throwing back attacks at the other side. My friend removed me from his friends list and finished the argument in "His" favor. Let's not let something like that happen here.

Re: Obama hit the campaign trail today

They shoulda included:

Dear Mr. Obama, I hear you would like to freeze pay rates for soldiers starting next year. Would you also consider cutting your own pay to save more money for our country? While you're at it, lets cut down all congressman's pay too. If the people who risk their lives don't get an increase in pay, why should we continue raising pay for those who take no risks and reap the benefits?

Dear Mr. Backwoods, Please run accusations through snopes before posting. http://www.snopes.com/politics/military/payfreeze.asp
I will quote this in case you missed it "Obamas Fiscal 2011 budget proposal called for a 1.4% pay increase to military pay for 2011" and it was approved by congress (the democrat one) in december 2010, while he froze salaries of all other Federal Workers for two years.
Thank you

I just find all of the misinformation and straight up propaghanda funny, but sad at the same time that people actually believe this crap with no supporting documentation.

The popular vote doesn't win elections, you should know this. Our country is going to hell in a hand basket and you are riding the government's coattails like it's the best thing ever.
