Mr Hunts Liberal bias makes one wonder if he is a PAID ADVOCATE of the Democrat Party? For he has lost all pretense of being a neutral if not objective observer in this discussion. Mr Hunt when it comes to matters of politics you have lost all your credibility.

Copy of my comment today on thread covering the same ground as this one:
Well Joe Biden screamed NEVER, NEVER, NEVER BET AGAINST AMERICA AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
He is so right.
Barack Obama screamed YOU, YOU, YOU, AMERICAN PEOPLE, NOT ME, ME, ME, HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY TO VOTE AND LEAD THE NATION TO WHERE I CAN BE THE GREAT DECIDER. Barack Obama is George Bush writ large.
I have to vote for four more years of ambiguity because Obama wants events to govern the globe -- not ideas.
I cannot vote for Romney because he is a money grubbing pirate. I do mot like Obama because he will not try to lead like a great source of doctrine -- he has no doctrine. But he will sympathize with the ideas made famous by the American experience. He is not a pirate . He is a pirate killer.
This lousy archive is always two days late -- two days behind the shows just viewed. But it is still the best show in town even with the worst archive of audience comment.

i almost had a panic attack every time they mentioned climate issues and math too since that's also in my experience a negative subject or something that nobody likes but i think i was just paranoid this makes it seem better
http://www.nationaljournal.com/convention-events/conventions-revive-climate-change-debate-20120906
science always seems like a positive subject
ALSO i've spiraled out into a personal situation that has absolutely nothing to do with what average people are going through that i need to address i have to go to a new world and start my own process of getting through this
so i'm jumping ship swimming to the coast and climbing over a mountain :)
i'm starting in a new world and a new life i'm can't type anymore or really deal with the computer (i volunteered for the campaign to help out here for now)
it's clear that democrats are 1000 times smarter than republicans there's plenty of debate within i can't deal with this other stuff anymore
if you don't know what's up regarding that then you're literally a lost cause i have to get through other issues first before anything else
so adios peoples i wish you all the best i'm too messed up to keep all this up
art it's just a different way of being in the world and thinking about life

WHAT? Obama Cabinet little business experience? Guys?!
If anyone watches "Inside Job" or "Too Big To Fail" then he or she will see the power of "Government Sachs".
But forget about the incredible influence of Government Sachs . . .National Journal examined a larger group of senior Obama administration appointees in June 2009, and found that more than one in four have experience as business executives. That compared with the 38 percent the magazine found eight years earlier at the start of George W. Bush's administration.

Yes Charlie, keep asking how Obama will be get compromise if he wins a second term.
John tells us that the Republicans will ease up if Obama gets re-elected. I hope so but the hate runs deep.
Trying to impeach will probably be next in the "Get Obama" Mitch McConnell play book. How many tens of millions of dollars ($60M) were spent by Ken Starr (President of Baylor University now) to try and get Clinton?
Perhaps Obama needs to get the House back to really end the hate?

Yes, the two Clintons have done wonders for American foreign policy. Glad they could play on the team.
Contentious primaries four years ago, which lead to animosity between Clinton and Obama, and now we get Clinton as the validator. Isn't life funny?
Hearing John McCain talk about how badly he was treated in Republican primaries--South Carolina by Bush--anyone who is an American is glad Obama and Clinton can put aside their differences for a greater good.
One concern about the Republican party is that they will start feeding on themselves after tiring of "no compromise" and then where will America be?

Yes Al, 40 years covering conventions is amazing and then we have Charlie and John who have worked conventions for 44 years.
Quite the history at the table.
Yes Al, no longer gavel to gavel coverage, no big surprises and much more scripted.
Yes Charlie, everyone seems to have a convention but coverage of football games and MTV awards seem to matter much more.
The trajectory appears to be downward.
