You are right. He is just regurgitating the Dem. talking points.Quote:

My point is that Romney would have been a truly great President. A solid fiscal hawk and a social moderate. Its the old "be careful what you ask for" deal. Now these folks have it. The irony is thats its his biggest supporters (the young voters) who will have to pay the tab for this crushing debt. Not guys like me.

Honestly....if you guys agree with each other on everything, then why do you either bother posting about it? lol
It's just me here.....I don't see anyone else other then the occasional Matt and Byron appearance here to defend my beliefs....it doesn't matter to me that we don't see eye to eye....but not once have I ever brought this stuff up....I just constantly have to respond for the sake of YOU thinking youre winning an arrgument. It's old. and I can't escape it anymore. I stayed out of the political talks in this forum FOREVER, but i couldn't any longer.
But i tell ya what, I regret it...I can't even go out in public anymore without defending myself to someone....everyone's a ****ing expert apparently.
I'm going to use this post to quit these talks. Not because i dont care, not because you call me uninformed, regurgitating dem talking points.....but because it doesn't technically belong here, and Morehead as a prime example is in no state of mind to speak rationally to me in general, but even more so post-election. I'm done. -

My fear is the coming fiscal cliff and both the President (who won his election) and the GOP House (who won their elections) have dug in and seem destined for a political war. Which is exactly why Obama needed to be defeated. -
11-09-2012, 10:26 AMdezzzRI think everyone in here keeps it pretty rational, except for Matts gloating.Quote:

I just don't want to do it anymore, and I encourage you all to do the same. Regardless of where we live, what we believe, there's really only one reason we all came to this forum. Because we're Giants fans....
I just don't like it anymore. It's bad enough we're a country divided on issues....I don't see the point of doing it here also. -
11-09-2012, 10:34 AMDavenIIII beg to differ, Matt is irrational, you are rational, you are far better at this then Matt is...more knowledgeable as well in my opinion.Quote:

11-09-2012, 10:37 AMMorehead StateI don't think less of people because they disagree with me on politics at all. My two step-daughters disagree with me on a lot when it comes to politics. We have very intense debates about politics and love and respect each other for our knowledge of the issues of the day.Quote:

now as far as Matt's behavior is concerned. That was totally classless. And I told him on Facebook. Its not a game. Its the future of the country. -

and to your point that me and Morehead always agree on this Jpezz...you are incorrect, me and Morehead do not always agree when it comes to political beliefs...so much so that he genuinely likes Romney...he thinks he was a good candidate, I don't, I think he was a crappy candidate and I'm upset with the Republican party for not finding someone better to run.
that said what we do agree on is that 4 more years of Obama's spending is as close to a death sentence as you can get for our nations economy. -

Regardless, I don't want to continue these discussions any longer. I understand your POVs....and I don't wanna debate them day in, day out....it's tiring to me. I'm not like you guys in that respect.
As for Matt, he's not here to defend himself, I'm sorry I brought it up...lol -
11-09-2012, 11:04 AMMorehead StateWell everybody is different. You are like my wife in this respect. A few months ago, my girls were over for dinner and the three of us started a heated debate at the table, my wife and my son-in-law went into the kitchen and talked about less weighty stuff. Those two hate arguing. My girls and I love it.Quote:
