Posted on October 22, 2012 at 10:13pmmy favorite comment: Obama: “when I travel to Israel . . . .” he has never traveled to Israel during his presidency. Fact checkers will have a field day with this debate, but unfortunately the independents and main stream media viewers will see only the debate – not the facts/lies presented afterward. Mitt did not call him to task on screen while everyone was watching – that is his fail in this debate IMHO

Posted on October 22, 2012 at 11:27pmIt was over when I counted Obama’s lies and his, his regular interruptions, and his UN-presidential behavior, which by now has become a norm. This is why the military hates him especially disable vets who cannot find jobs even though tonight’s real whopper was that vets jobs was below the American unemployment rate when in fact it is 5 to 10 percent higher. I know I am 90% disabled and haven’t been able to find a jobs for almost three years.

Posted on October 22, 2012 at 11:35pmI had to listen to it on the radio and was praying it wasn’t as bad as it sounded but the above comments worry me :( I was disappointed, Romney missed some golden opportunities. How do you let Obama brag about GM and bash companies for taking jobs overseas (China SPECIFICALLY) in the same statement without pointing out that GM took our bailout $ and then moved their factories to China?! How did he not bash him on Libya? He made a sly comment about the Russia hot mike but if you didn’t know about that (like anybody getting their news from the msm) that probably went right over their heads. Should have made that a HUGE issue!
I was disappointed :(

Hi Monk!
I use neither Twitter nor Facebook, and Spreecast works just fine for me, chat and all.
As for these debate chats, they are moderated, and most comments from lowly peons like us don’t make the cut. There are like 10,000 people all commenting. The moderators have to cut the vast majority of them and they rarely have time to read most of what they cut.
Hope this helps.

Although Obama officially said that Terrorism no longer exists in America effective 2011, the enter Middle East is a war zone even on 9/11 2012 when Obama went back to bed when four Americans were killed in Benghazi in stead of going to the WH War Room to see the live Unmanned Airborne Vehicle (UAV) data link feed showing their bodies being raped and dragged or killed. Oh ya, he had an appointment with Letterman and Hip-hop singer Jay-Z (convicted murder) and his wife Beyoncé the next day in Las Vegas at a fundraiser, which to the president was more important.

Every single American could stay home on election day and it wouldn’t make a difference (try Googling Diebold voter fraud). Your vote means nothing, literally. It’s just an act to make you feel like you’re still a part of the process. It’s pro wrestling and everybody is fighting over whether the Mad Iranian is better than Jake the Snake. Vince McMahon decides the outcome of ‘the fight’ no matter how many Hulkamaniacs show up to scream at the ring. Only difference is we all look equally ridiculous to the people putting on the show and some of us actually think its a real fight.

Also, when Obama mentioned about how he talked to the JCS about the budget suggesting he was doing something special, ALL PRESIDENTS do that as part of the budget process. In Obama’s case, the last three budgets have NOT BEEN PASSED by his own Democratic Party that stopped in the SENATE CONTROL BY SENATOR REID because the budgets were that bad.

Posted on October 23, 2012 at 12:42amAll infantry soldiers from modern Western Militaries still use bayonets (much shorter blades than WWI or WWII)…it’s a useful weapon when the ammo runs out. They still teach hand to hand combat in basic training for this very scenario should it arise. Better to be prepared for every situation possible since it’s highly likely that training will come in handy at some point in a combat theater. With the way missions are planned in Afghansitan I doubt anyone leaves their blades or side arms behind. The weather and terrain make resupply iffy….the enemy has the upper hand since it is their territory. One cannot carry enough ammo as it is but trying lugging a 80lb pack at 10,000 ft going uphill all day/night in full combat gear and you can quickly gain appreciation for just how tough our guys are but also just how tough the enemy really is. Takur Ghar in 2002 was just one example of a mission that went from good to bad in a matter of minutes after the first Chinook dropped it’s cargo (Seal team Mako 30).
