    Oh a great question. I'm thinking Kermit the Frog and Animal, maybe some Fraggles too. Would of siad Big Bird, but wouldn't want Mitt, to try and fire him, or Obama to (nevermind better judgement). Think we should get Michael J. Fox to hold cue cards for them all too. That would be a fun time!

    Boy! You really want to stack the deck in the President's favor. Everyone you named are Obama supporters. I was thinking more of Stephen Colbert.

    Huh, I would of never guessed Kermit, Animal and the Fraggles were all Obama supporters. Not to mention MJ Fox. How did you ever come to the conclusion, that they are all Obama lovers like yourself? Haven't seen anything Fraggle related in many moons, so, not to mention Animal.

    Big Bird I get, but he's still going to get paid regardless. Since you know there is Sesame Street Place.

    But I'll bite, hey so what if I want to stack the deck, then maybe an Obama lover like you can't say that Mitt was bullying. Since you know Obama's supporters are pretty much all running the show.

    And a good thing they are. It's common knowledge that democrats have better luck and skill at running deficit spending programs to incentivize economic recovery and create more jobs.

    That has zero to do with what I even said. Also had a question in there, can you find it, or do I have to point it out to you?


    Seriously, this is exactly what I thought of.......

    Really? Do you even bother remembering your own comments?
    Obama's supporters are pretty much all running the show.
    So, I agreed with you ,
    And a good thing they are. It's common knowledge that democrats have better luck and skill at running deficit spending programs to incentivize economic recovery and create more jobs.
    So, the assumption is if democrats do such a good job at running the economy then why shouldn't we believe that they can do better in running a debate ? ;-)

    Take it in the context it is put in, not how you want to swing it, so you can make a comment to swing in your favor.....

    Stop pulling an Obama and just use a clip of what is said, to make your comments look good, and right.

    You're making the same mistakes that Curly,EpicWin Chiefbuck,and max . Taking things out of context and stereotyping doesn't get you very far or further the discussion in a positive direction.

    Pretty sure I have not stereo typed in here, and most definitely didn't take anything out of context either. Your the one who commented back using only a clip of the info I stated.

    Well, yeah, dude ,but you did admit to stereotyping in another thread so that makes it alright because you may have not done it in this one? See what I mean? Get more consistent in your argument and you might not have so much trouble convincing others of your sincerity. It looks like your pulling a 'Mitt Romney" --you don't care one way or another for your opponent's view or anyone else's just so you 'win' no matter what.

    Re: Jim Lehrer Biggest Loser in Debate?

    No we are talking two completely different topics. What I say in one thread, should not carry over into another topic, when they are different.

    like I said I have not taken things out of context either, you have. By not quoting my entire comment, you only quoted one line, so you could try and swing the argument or topic into your favor. Which you have apparently failed, because I called you out on it. So has that for a zinger?

    stop trying. Combine different topics as well, it's kind of lame. Oh wait you want everything to be about one particular topic, so I know why you did it now. Whoa, another zinger, I'm on a roll, and I just woke up. Damn it feels good to be a gangsta.

    Beau, Democrats are doing a great job of funding deficit programs, the national debt and unfunded liabilities are setting new records. Buying votes with taxpayer money and passing the debt on to future generations is a sweet deal, until those who are going to pick up the tab decide to stop doing so. Maybe the Obama illegal overseas online political donations will help smooth over some of those bumps in the road. Or maybe the Chinese military could kick in $300 mil like they did for Bubba. You libs are willing to overlook any illegal activity done by one of your own but let a Republican step over the line and KABOOM! Just think of the uproar if Bush would have had an intern under his desk or was doing tricks with a cigar before he lit it up.

    Chiefbuck,

    Prove it with evidence or shut up with the lies .You're only making yourself look worse and muddying the present conversation. Can't you come up with any facts or logically-based argument instead of spieling innuendo and unbased accusations? I know that EpicWin is emptied of any meaningful content to contribute, but you? Come on, Veteran , tell me it ain't so! lol Show something of substance in your remarks. Congress has refused to fund even half of the budget that our own Forestry Department needs to fight the devastating wildfires (made worse by climate change) that's destroying American homes, farmers' arable lands, hundreds of wildlife habitats, national wildlife parks that have been the gems of our American heritage since Teddy Roosevelt. The other night on Bill Maher's show, Bill McKibben mused that if climate change had been an idea for a new James Bond thriller then it would have been rejected as too weird, far-fetched ,or believable that any government would allow the chemical alteration of the Earth's atmosphere that destroys the planet at a slow enough pace to let a small group of super-rich industrialists and corporations reap the too-quick financial extortion rewards , to barricade themselves behind their fortress banking establishments, their privately -armed guards gated communities/castles , and government bureaucracy enclaves(like medieval fiefdoms) while waiting for the eventual Armageddon.

    How exactly does climate change create wildfires? They are wild, and can happen no matter what, unless of course it reains too much then they won't happen. It's called ground is dry, flash of lighting sometimes, wildfire. Some jack wagon throwing their lit butt out the window in a dry area. Wildfires have been happening for years, many mnay years, they are not a recent issue. I am seriously shaking my head right now as I type.

    What do you want the whole US to be like Seattle????

    I'm surprised that you did not agree that it's a shame that the Teapublican Congress refused to fully fund the U S Forestry Service despite the fact that they need the funds to fight a national emergency. Or, don't you think the wildfires raging out-of-control is a national emergency?

    Scientists have already showed that the droughts and wildfires in Australia, the Russian wheat-belt, and our own far west are linked to the underlying changes brought on by climate change. www.thinkprogress.org
